Day 2 of the rally was as exciting as like ever before, although attrition rate was almost like 25%, with only 75 able to make it to the final Day 3. Juho Hanninen lead the rally at the end of the rally, with 3 of the Day's 8 stages, Czech's star driver Jan Kopecky won 2 stages and sits in second place with little over 11s to the rally leader, and Andreas Mikkelsen holds his 3rd overall with nearly half a minute behind the top driver with 3 stage wins. What really impressive here is that all the top 8 cars are Skoda Fabia S2000's, with Subaru Impreza R4 in 9th driven by Andreas Aigner with Ilka Minor [she has co-driven for Henning Solberg in WRC for a few seasons] and a lone Peugeot 207 S2000 makes its way at the final point scoring position in 10th with M Solowow behind the wheel.
