Information
Date and time SS Information
06.10.2013 14:10 20 flash info (9 - Mikkelsen Andreas / Nagle Paul): For sure it is my first event on tarmac in a Polo. We have some work to do, just got to go home now and study things and come back stronger.
06.10.2013 14:10 19 flash info (9 - Mikkelsen Andreas / Nagle Paul): It is better now after the small regroup. I feel more comfortable and I feel I am more comfortable with the grip. Still a lot to learn…
06.10.2013 13:10 18 flash info (9 - Mikkelsen Andreas / Nagle Paul): I am quite happy with that stage, no mistakes, but really tricky conditions
06.10.2013 11:10 17 flash info (9 - Mikkelsen Andreas / Nagle Paul): I struggle to get a good feeling. The next stage is gonna be very very muddy.
06.10.2013 11:10 16 flash info (9 - Mikkelsen Andreas / Nagle Paul): Struggling in the braking, always braking too early, I need to work on that. So many fast sections where we could go much faster.
06.10.2013 09:10 15 flash info (9 - Mikkelsen Andreas / Nagle Paul): Hopefully get a good feeling and it is not easy in these conditions. We hit some water and went straight on into the field… The feeling with the car is more precise, but very different conditions to yesterday.
05.10.2013 15:10 14 flash info (9 - Mikkelsen Andreas / Nagle Paul): Not easy, I cant believe it.
05.10.2013 14:10 13 flash info (9 - Mikkelsen Andreas / Nagle Paul): It was not easy, so many corners the car was all over the place. You need to think about the grip everywhere. Just on the start line and it starts to rain.
05.10.2013 13:10 12 flash info (9 - Mikkelsen Andreas / Nagle Paul): No real problems, in one hairpin left went a little bit wide, other than that no problems. I brake way too early in many places but it comes with confidence.
05.10.2013 12:10 11 flash info (9 - Mikkelsen Andreas / Nagle Paul): A bit better, feeling more confident with the car, it is really slippy with the gravel out there. The road conditions were partly dry and quite wet under the forest.
05.10.2013 11:10 10 flash info (9 - Mikkelsen Andreas / Nagle Paul): Downhill, understeering is just worse and worse. I cannot get the car turning and I lose confidence.
05.10.2013 10:10 9 flash info (9 - Mikkelsen Andreas / Nagle Paul): We went straight on in a junction, so slippery. But we managed, it was not easy.
05.10.2013 09:10 8 flash info (9 - Mikkelsen Andreas / Nagle Paul): For sure it is quite dirty, struggle to find confidence in these conditions, a lot of understeer.
04.10.2013 16:10 7 flash info (9 - Mikkelsen Andreas / Nagle Paul): Not so good with tyre choice. It was not so easy when we should have had hards tyres we had softs and when we should have had softs, we had hards...
04.10.2013 15:10 6 flash info (9 - Mikkelsen Andreas / Nagle Paul): The tyres are going off on the softs...
04.10.2013 15:10 5 flash info (9 - Mikkelsen Andreas / Nagle Paul): We are unlucky with the weather, we have soft tyres and the stage was completely dry.
04.10.2013 11:10 4 flash info (9 - Mikkelsen Andreas / Nagle Paul): It is ok. We had a moment in a right hand corner, but ok.
04.10.2013 10:10 3 flash info (9 - Mikkelsen Andreas / Nagle Paul): The wipers are on and we have the hard tyres. Disaster. We try to push,...
03.10.2013 18:10 1 flash info (9 - Mikkelsen Andreas / Nagle Paul): Feeling was good. Tyres were going quite off, especially on the last lap. We try to be not too far behind the top boys, we see how we go on.
