Ogier came home in three hours, 51 minutes, 16.1 seconds, with Spain's Dani Sordo finishing third — more than a minute further back — to make it an all-Citroen podium. It was Ogier's first world championship victory.
France's Loeb, who is pursuing a seventh world title, remains top of the overall standings, 38 points ahead of Ogier, whose win saw him leapfrog Ford's Mikko Hirvonen into second. The Finnish driver came fourth in the stage in 3:52:48.1 and is now third overall.
