The already difficult Safari in Kenya proved to be relentless with the competitors; as the six special tests were disputed, several drivers struggled with the state of the roads. In a sad scenario for the driver, Diego Dominguez Bejarano was forced to retire on the second pass of Sleeping Warrior 2 after an engine failure in his Toyota GR Yaris Rally2.

With this, Zaldívar would remain as the only Paraguayan representative in the competition, and finished on the podium, both in WRC2 and Challenger, in second and third place respectively, while he was close to the top 10 overall.
This is how day 3 of the WRC Safari Rally Kenya 2025 ended.
