Sordo should be up to Corsican test

Starts 8am Friday

Kris Meeke finally showed the form that was expected of him and his Citroen team by winning in Mexico last month.

It could be significant that it was the first gravel event of the season - the surface on which most of the calendar takes place. However, this week's Rally Corsica is an asphalt test.

Three of the four manufacturers have already scored wins and Hyundai should muscle in on the party sooner rather than later. Thierry Neuville crashed out of huge leads in Monte Carlo and Sweden, but Dani Sordo could be the man to concentrate on in Corsica.

The Spaniard finished second to Sebastien Ogier in Spain and Germany last year, and with the reigning world champion having switched to Ford this season, Sordo will fancy his chances of overturning that form.

Recommendation
D Sordo
