Sébastien Ogier, the seasoned rally driver, faced a grueling challenge during the Portugal Rally, enduring extreme physical strain like never before. The intense Friday schedule, spanning over 15 hours, pushed drivers to their limits under scorching temperatures and relentless loops of racing.

Despite leading the rally classification, Ogier battled exhaustion and physical discomfort, attributing it to the demanding itinerary and lack of rest. The 41-year-old driver, acknowledging the toll of age on his body, struggled to cope with the back-to-back challenges of the marathon Friday followed by an early start on Saturday.

Ogier’s resilience was put to the test as he pushed through the sweltering conditions, seeking relief outside his Rally1 machine between stages. The silver reflective livery of his car, designed to combat heat, provided only limited respite from the grueling conditions.

While Ogier persevered through the tough Saturday stages, his competitors faced setbacks, with Ott Tänak’s Hyundai succumbing to power steering failure, relinquishing the rally lead. The experienced driver now finds himself on the brink of securing his 63rd career WRC win, a remarkable feat in the world of rallying.

As the competition heats up, Ogier remains focused on the task at hand, determined to finish strong and secure victory. Despite the challenges faced, the seasoned champion maintains his composure, acknowledging the unpredictable nature of motorsport and the need to stay vigilant until the very end.
