INFORMATION ABOUT SS 7
retired (88 - Ptaszek Hubert / Kozdroń Kamil): retired in SS 7
retired (91 - Pastila Ilkka / Lamminen Hannu): retired in SS 7
(42 - Brynildsen Eyvind / Fredriksson Anders): problems with propshaft
flash info (23 - Breen Craig / Martin Scott): I am really really struggling, I am trying to keep focused but the speed is just so fast to what I am use to. It is going to take time.
flash info (20 - Paddon Hayden / Kennard John): There were a couple of technical sections and losing a little. Just need to be a bit smoother and clean in the twisty stuff. This afternoon is going to be a lot harder.
flash info (8 - Hänninen Juho / Tuominen Tomi): Just one km from the start the dashboard flipped out. It was not that bad.
flash info (19 - Solberg Henning / Minor Ilka): It is ok, but I have a puncture in there, on the right front.
flash info (21 - Prokop Martin / Tománek Jan): It is very nice stage. I am not happy with the car, not good feeling. Now it is really slow, not happy at all.
(19 - Solberg Henning / Minor Ilka): puncture
flash info (6 - Evans Elfyn / Barritt Daniel): Things are going better to day, but there is still work to be done. We looked at pacenotes last night and we did not change so much. The grip level is very high.
flash info (3 - Meeke Kris / Nagle Paul): This was the stage with the most amount of cleaner, definitely the guys in front are at a disadvantage on this one. I just want to keep processing in myself and be comfortable where I am.
flash info (7 - Neuville Thierry / Gilsoul Nicolas): Not easy at all, the car is undriveable and you have to be very careful. One more stage to go, we want to get back to service and continue this afternoon. I struggle a lot with the confidence, I do not feel comfortable in the at all.
flash info (5 - Hirvonen Mikko / Lehtinen Jarmo): It went really well. This one was perfect, the margin is so small.
flash info (4 - Østberg Mads / Andersson Jonas): It is getting better and better, at least now I feel I am driving again and can start to work on the details. I think yesterday was a big disappointment for me, I felt I was driving really bad. You need to be in the right mood on this rally.
(8 - Hänninen Juho / Tuominen Tomi): started into stage without front windscreen
flash info (9 - Mikkelsen Andreas / Fløene Ola): I know this stage, we did last year. A clean stage for us, I was not very happy with the first 5 kms of the stage, a new section. Try to keep a good pace.
flash info (2 - Latvala Jari-Matti / Anttila Miikka): It was a good stage. We were four seconds ahead when got the split and I started to attack a bit more, but it was not good, I started to lose time. There was a lot of gravel on this stage.
flash info (1 - Ogier Sébastien / Ingrassia Julien): No problem at all, I am really happy with the stage. But no chance, so much lose on this stage, so much big rooks, no chance.
