MotoGP world champion Valentino Rossi gained three more places during Sunday's third and final day and finished 12th in the Wales Rally GB in twelfth position, driving a private Ford Focus RS WRC car entered by team Stobart Motorsport.
Rossi had to face extremely treacherous conditions this weekend, and made a very conservative start to the rally when the stages were at their most icy on Friday morning. But he then increased his pace as he acclimatised to the car and the stages, and although he was 13 minutes adrift of the victorious Sebastien Loeb at the finish, Rossi was matching World Rally Championship regulars Matthew Wilson and Conrad Rautenbach on Sunday.
