The organizers of the Rally of Mexico, representatives of the FIA ​​and the car manufacturers involved in the WRC made the wise decision to stop this 3rd round of the world championship earlier than expected. Thus, the competitors have just started for the 2nd 70 km long loop divided into 6 specials. The finish will be judged at the end of the 21st stage. There will be no stage this Sunday and, therefore, no power stage. Thierry Neuville, forced to retire on Friday and returned to the Super Rally this Saturday morning, will therefore not be able to score precious units as he hoped.

“The decision to stop the race this Saturday evening was taken unanimously with the support of the governor of the province of Leon, promoters of the WRC and the FIA,” commented Yves Matton, the boss of the rally at the worldwide. It is unfortunate to stop the race early but in the context of the emergency we know, it is a priority that everyone can go home. “

It is true that with the closing of the borders of many countries, the return to Europe will be a headache for most of the followers.
