Latest championship standings post-Rally d'Italia, round 6 out of 15 in the 2008 FIA WRC.
Mikko Hirvonen remains in the lead in the race for the 2008 drivers' title following his runners-up spot on the Rally d'Italia Sardegna on Sunday.
Mikko's lead though is cut from 5 points to 3, as his chief championship rival Sebastien Loeb won the event and took the maximum 10 points. Chris Atkinson remains third, although Mikko and Seb both pull further ahead.
In the Manufacturers' championship the BP Ford Abu Dhabi WRT stays top, maintaining its 7 points lead over the Citroen Total WRT.
There is no change in the JWRC either, although Citroen C2 S1600 runner Sebastien Ogier sees his 9 point lead reduced by one point.
