On Saturday, Verstappen managed to hold on to second place and eventually drag it in. Cédric Cherain, together with Damien Withers, won the rally. ''It went well, but Cherain was fast everywhere and made no mistakes,'' Verstappen told Verstappen.com.
''I am very satisfied with second place. It is the best we could get. Of course, you always want more, and we tried everything, spoke a lot to figure out what we could do to make the car better. But this was the fastest it could go. This was the maximum, and we have to be satisfied with that,'' said Verstappen senior.
