Former Formula One champion Kimi Raikkonen had a second day of
impressive driving at the Arctic Lapland Rally, although he
couldn't make up for a previous mistake and finished well behind
winner Dani Sordo of Spain.
Raikkonen lost more than 30 minutes Friday after running his
Citroen off the road and needing repairs, but still set the
second-best time on nine special stages during the two-day race.
Sordo won every stage to finish in 1 hour, 38 minutes, 29.1
seconds. Kosti Katajamaki was second, 6:07.7 behind the winner.
Raikkonen, who will compete in the World Rally Championship
this year after being let go by F1 team Ferrari, used the race as a
test ahead of the first WRC event in Sweden next month.
