Summary French driver Sebastien Ogier won Acropolis Rally on Sunday.
Ogier led home a Citroen 1-2 as he won the seventh leg of the rally world championship, the Acropolis Rally, ahead of compatriot and seven-time world champion Sebastien Loeb.Ogier had started the final day behind Loeb, after the latter had stolen the lead in a dramatic final special stage on Saturday.However, Ogier overturned that deficit to beat Loeb by 10.5 seconds to take the win in only his second participation in the race, having finished runner-up last year, and record his third victory of the season.Loeb holds a 17 point lead now over Hirvonen with six rallies to go, three of them on his preferred asphalt surface (Germany, Alsace and Catalonia), so still holds the whip hand for what would be an eighth successive world crown.
