India's Gaurav Gill of Team MRF Tyres overhauled a 33-second deficit to win the International Rally of Whangarei in New Zealand, the first round of FIA Asia Pacific Rally Championship, on Sunday. Overnight leader and team-mate Ole Christian Veiby, who eventually finished second behind Gill, led by 23 seconds at the half-way mark after first loop of three Special Stages. But, he suffered brake failure on his Skoda Fabia R5 in the very first Stage after service which cost him one minute, 22.6 seconds.
