Il fallait se lever tôt pour suivre le traditionnel shakedown sur la base de Kuragaike Park et ses 2,75 kms. Effectivement, celui ci débutait à 1 h 00 du matin à Paris. Et c’est Ott Tänak qui réalise le meilleur temps après les deux passages obligatoires devant Fourmaux et Sébastien Ogier.
Voici la totalité des temps de ce Shakedown qui s’est déroulé sous un beau soleil et une spéciale sèche.
