Motorsport: Rally NZ podium places seem to be decided

The podium places look to have been decided with two stages remaining on Rally New Zealand.

Citroen's Sebastien Loeb is 47.8 seconds clear of second-placed Marcus Gronholm.

Petter Solberg is comfortably third, but is 15 seconds behind Gronholm, and has given up on catching him.

Loeb says he is taking it easy.

He said the car is going well with a good safe drive on the last few stages.
