Evans, the 2024 world championship runner-up, led in his Toyota from Japanese teammate Takamoto Katsuta and Estonia's 2019 champion Ott Tanak of Hyundai.

Defending world champion Thierry Neuville of Hyundai was fifth just behind French driver Adrien Fourmaux in another Hyundai.

Welsh star Evans was in the lead for a long time on Friday before Katsuta briefly grabbed the advantage on stage five.

Evans and Tanak then took over top spot before the Toyota man ended the day back in prime position

Two-time world champion Kalle Rovanpera, in another Toyota, endured a testing day.
