Rabih Ayoub increased the withdrawal tally to a total of 5 after retiring on the fifth special stage of the 2013 Summer Rally. Rabih was running in 9th overall prior to his misfortune.
The second-place battle has cooled down a bit as Nicolas Amiouni managed to keep the position from third-placed Chafic Boulos and fourth-placed Gilbert Bannout. Tamer Ghandour inherited fifth place from Joseph Hindy who seems to have hit trouble, we’ll get a confirmation on that one though.
Roger Feghali is slowly increasing his rally lead; he’s now more than 2 minutes ahead of Nicolas Amiouni.
