For Marc Coma, leading from the first stage, the rally went off without a shadow of a cloud. “The result is there! He commented. The Sardinia Rally is a particular, very picky on the plan of the navigation. I made small mistakes, but they have not had a significant impact on the ranking. This rally is a set of tracks, and this is why the concentration is unlike the usual rallies.
