Ken Block's return to the Rally de France stages did not go quite to plan this morning, with the American driver dropping five places in service after the team was forced to replace a hydraulic actuator on his Ford Focus RS WRC. The Gymkhana star had suffered a problem with the hydraulics on the final stage of day one, forcing him to use the car's manual gearshift rather than the hydraulically assisted version. The car's differentials were also affected, making the car more difficult to drive in what was arguably the toughest stage of the day.
