Loeb wraps up day 1 in the lead

It’s over! It’s 4 AM in my part of the world and day one is finally over with 11 stages scheduled, but 10 actually done behind the drivers.

Two short superspecial stages, ran in succession, completed the day with Nasser Al-Attiyah and Chris Atkinson taking victories each.

At top Loeb is leading Hirvonen with 11.2 seconds and Mads Ostberg in third with 1 minute and 7 tenths deficit to Hirvonen.
