Information
Date and time SS Information
15.09.2013 15:09 22 retired (3 - Meeke Kris / Patterson Chris): retired after SS 22
15.09.2013 15:09 22 flash info (3 - Meeke Kris / Patterson Chris): The car is back to being perfect to me – thanks to the mechanics who worked hard overnight. They’re happy to see me back in the car although I’m paying the penalty for being first on the road today. The roads this morning were complete marbles – and on a crest it’s so difficult to judge. Enjoyable though – especially the last one, with massive trees lining the finish and you’re in fifth/sixth gear.
15.09.2013 12:09 22 (3 - Meeke Kris / Patterson Chris): problems with suspension
14.09.2013 08:09 13 retired (3 - Meeke Kris / Patterson Chris): accident in SS 13
13.09.2013 10:09 10 flash info (3 - Meeke Kris / Patterson Chris): There are some corners getting cut up and they get filled up with the powder of the dust - and the car becomes a little difficult to drive in those conditions. We've had no testing for this type of rally so I've had to learn to learn the setup and dial myself in but I'd have to say it’s fantastic, given me a lot of confidence and I can drive it how I want. I'm under orders to finish this weekend and get a good position - so I will drive to by own rhythm and see if we can be in the top places.
12.09.2013 08:09 2 flash info (3 - Meeke Kris / Patterson Chris): Some corners are like ice – they’ve put some water down on the gravel sections and when there is concrete lining the routes you don’t want to be stupid and touch anything.
