Toyota driver Sami Pajari leads Rally Croatia after Saturday’s loop of asphalt stages, with his advantage reduced to 12.4 seconds over Hyundai driver and 2024 world champion Thierry Neuville.
Takamoto Katsuta, Toyota driver, lost time on dirty, gravel-polluted sections but recovered 3.8s on Neuville in stage 10 to briefly move into second before Neuville reclaimed the position later in the loop.
Oliver Solberg, a returning competitor, won stage 10 after starting first on the road and beat team-mate Elfyn Evans, who is recovering from a Friday retirement; Neuville then topped the 22.48km Generalski Stol – Zdihovo 1 to close in on the lead.
Pajari edged Neuville by 0.6s in the loop’s final stage to restore his margin, with Takamoto Katsuta holding third as crews headed to the midway tyre-fitting zone.
