Sebastien Ogier chalked up the impressive milestone of 60 career World Rally Championship victories at Rally Portugal while Thierry Neuville opened up a 24-point lead in the title race.

Ogier and co-driver Vincent Landais produced a faultless display to emerge from an intense head-to-head with a Hyundai’s rejuvenated Ott Tanak to claim a record sixth Rally Portugal win moving him one clear of WRC legend Markku Alen.
