Korhonen was still holding second place in the rally after the opening stage of the morning, but the tenth special stage of the event proved to be his downfall. Korhonen rolled his Toyota GR Yaris Rally2 and was forced to retire.
Both Korhonen and co-driver Anssi Viinikka were uninjured in the crash. The Finnish driver had impressed by winning the Rally Hungary round of the European Championship in May and finishing second in the Swedish round. However, this marked his second consecutive retirement, as Korhonen and Viinikka also went off the road and retired in Rally Sardinia last weekend.
Rally leader Martins Sesks also had a moment on Sunday morning’s opening special stage. Sesks spent some time off-road in a Polish field but escaped with just a scare.
“I had already watched the video before the stage and thought we’d take that spot one gear lower, but apparently we should have dropped two gears,” Sesks laughed.
After the first two special stages on Sunday morning, Sesks still holds a commanding lead. Following Korhonen’s retirement, Poland’s Mikolaj Marczyk moved up to second place, though he trails the rally leader by over half a minute.
Irish driver Jon Armstrong is currently in third place in Poland, chasing Marczyk with a gap of just 6.1 seconds. Sweden’s Isak Reiersen is in fourth, with Mads Østberg in fifth.
There are still four special stages remaining in Rally Poland.
