Orhan Avcioglu headed a Skoda Fabia R5 1-2-3-4 result at the Turkish championship Marmaris Rally.
This was after early leader, Murat Bostanci, went off the road in his Ford Fiesta R5 when well over a minute in the lead.
The third finishing Peugeot 208 T6 of Yagiz Avci retired on the way to the finish with engine trouble.
The two-day rally was successfully observed by FIA and WRC Promoter officials as a candidate event for the 2018 world championship, due to be run out of this south-west Turkish coastal resort town in mid September.
Top foreign competitor had been Cypriot driver, Alexandros Tsouloftas, who was lying fourth, three stages from the finish, but retired with an electrical failure. Top two-wheel drive car was the Fiesta R2T of Bugra Banaz.
