Done with the third quarter of Day 1, Vítor Sá increased his advantage amongst drivers of front wheel drive cars, since he was the fastest by almost 5 seconds over his main opponent, Rui Jorge Fernandes, in a Renault Clio R3T. Pedro Almeida, in a Peugeot 208 Rally 4 is still ahead in the group RC4, a group in which the fastest on vehicles with an atmospheric engine is still André Silva. These group's positions have also been kept unchanged after this round, since Miguel Caires, João Ferreira and Adruzilo Lopes are still positioned in the immediately following places. Bruno Coelho is still untouched in the single-brand competition, raced on a Toyota Yaris.
