Hirvonen's Pirelli Scorpion-equipped Ford Focus WRC leads Rally Japan

After the opening day of the Japanese event, the two factory Ford Focus WRCs of Hirvonen and Latvala are in the lead. Loeb's Citroen C4 WRC provisionally occupies third place, on an event that has seen the cancellation of four stages today due to bad weather and an accident to Duval's Ford.
