Monza, Italy, (APP - UrduPoint / Pakistan Point News - 20th Nov, 2021 ) :Sebastien Ogier crept closer towards sealing his eighth World Rally Championship crown by reclaiming the lead Saturday from Toyota team-mate and title rival Elfyn Evans at the season finale in Monza.
Frenchman Ogier holds a 5.2-second advantage over Evans after 11 of 17 specials, with two more to come in the afternoon on the iconic Monza race circuit.
Ogier lost the lead on Friday to Evans but regained it from the Welshman by winning stages 12 and 13, the last of four morning specials in the mountains Saturday.
