Last year's surprise winner Sordo utilized his late road position to the max and grabbed lead early in the first day. On next day he concentrated on managing his lead but on final day he almost gave all of it away. In the end, five seconds was enough to clinch a win.

Despite running early on the road, Ogier managed to stay third most of the rally. While both he and Neuville got past Suninen, Ogier's grip on second place did not hold as Neuville pipped him in the Power Stage, relegating Ogier to third.
