However, the dynamic duo can hold their heads up high after securing a hard fought fifth place and four championship points. Kris Meeke now leads the IRC Driver's Standings by five points.

After Day 1's difficult stages and the challenge of mastering the fast and flowing Madeira roads. Kris and Paul started Day 2 in sixth place 4.1 seconds ahead of title rival Freddy Loix.

With only six points separating the two drivers, it was important to maximise the points score from this rally.

The first challenge of the day was SS14 Paúl and this stage saw Luca Rossetti set the fastest time as he tried to maximise the gap between himself and Kris. Loix was second fastest closing up to Kris as he dropped to fourth fastest.
