Citroën WRC 2013 - Rally Mexico - Day 1

By the end of the long, gruelling first leg of Rally Mexico, a group of four crews had moved clear of the rest of the field in the fight for the podium places. Third overall, 42s off the pace, Mikko Hirvonen and Jarmo Lehtinen ended the day in the leading group. Dani Sordo and Carlos del Barrio coped well with the difficulties of sweeping and getting used to the Central American stages again to gain a firm foothold in the top five.
