The 35-year old Gill, who is the defending champion, registered one of his best drives ever, winning all the six Special Stages in the race on Sunday. Veiby, on the other hand, held on to the lead in Leg-1 to win by over four minutes.<\/p>\n

The defending champion from Delhi, Gill, said, \u201cFor sure, it was one of my best drives, very fast and precise. I didn\u2019t make any mistakes. I was driving at 110 per cent which was what I always wanted do and what all the top\u00a0drivers do.\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cWe had amazing speed, good pace notes and made correct tyre choice. I drove my heart out and pushed the car beyond\u00a0its limit. But the small mistake I made yesterday cost me the Rally or else, we could have won,\u201d said Gill, who had a frustrating Saturday after a run-in with a tree stump and\u00a0alternator problem, losing out on a lot of time.<\/p>\n
