Information
Date and time SS Information
25.10.2015 12:10 23 flash info (9 - Mikkelsen Andreas / Fløene Ola): I don’t know what to say, it is just incredible, I don’t believe it. It is not the way I want to win my first WRC rally… We have been fighting hard, we struggle on the gravel and fighting hard on tarmac. It was really close before the last stage, Ogier did a mistake and we won.
25.10.2015 11:10 22 flash info (9 - Mikkelsen Andreas / Fløene Ola): A spin just after the start. I tried to push after that.
25.10.2015 11:10 21 flash info (9 - Mikkelsen Andreas / Fløene Ola): I'm enjoying the moment and the fight.
25.10.2015 10:10 20 flash info (9 - Mikkelsen Andreas / Fløene Ola): Not really a perfect stage, not really happy but a good morning loop. Looks like we are set for an exciting repeat loop. Trying to go as fast as I can without going absolutely crazy.
25.10.2015 15:10 19 flash info (9 - Mikkelsen Andreas / Fløene Ola): I enjoyed it. I did the best I could with the experience I have here but I expect Jari-Matti to be quicker here.
25.10.2015 15:10 18 flash info (9 - Mikkelsen Andreas / Fløene Ola): Good start, a bit careful in places. Not perfect but okay. I've not given up on the fight with Jari-Matti.
25.10.2015 01:10 17 flash info (9 - Mikkelsen Andreas / Fløene Ola): It has been a much better day today than yesterday. I am happy enough with my day. Starting to get into that tarmac groove. I will for sure try to chase Latvala.
25.10.2015 00:10 16 flash info (9 - Mikkelsen Andreas / Fløene Ola): Jari-Matti did a very good job in here I must say. It's not easy for me to go faster in the corners because then I get more understeer. Of course I want to fight but he's a good driver.
25.10.2015 00:10 15 flash info (9 - Mikkelsen Andreas / Fløene Ola): It was alright. We had a puncture after 1km on the first pass here so I couldn't push as hard as I wanted.
25.10.2015 14:10 14 flash info (9 - Mikkelsen Andreas / Fløene Ola): Struggling a bit with understeer but this was the best stage of the rally for me.
25.10.2015 00:10 13 flash info (9 - Mikkelsen Andreas / Fløene Ola): I was hoping to catch up some places today on tarmac. This was a nice stage, I was really careful.
24.10.2015 12:10 11 flash info (9 - Mikkelsen Andreas / Fløene Ola): Ok, but then I got a little bit more careful.
23.10.2015 17:10 9 flash info (9 - Mikkelsen Andreas / Fløene Ola): It has been better and better with each stage. Not perfect, but I'm happy with this stage.
23.10.2015 16:10 7 flash info (9 - Mikkelsen Andreas / Fløene Ola): I made a mistake in a left-hander. I lost one or two seconds. I still can't find the perfect stage.
23.10.2015 16:10 7 flash info (9 - Mikkelsen Andreas / Fløene Ola): I'm trying to save my tyres as much as I can. This was an okay stage. Not perfect but clever driving.
23.10.2015 15:10 6 flash info (9 - Mikkelsen Andreas / Fløene Ola): It’s working fine now. Trying to take care for the tyres, it is going to be a tough afternoon, I think I drove quite clever.
23.10.2015 12:10 5 flash info (9 - Mikkelsen Andreas / Fløene Ola): I lost the brakes for many kilometres. They came back later but I couldn't trust them. We'll go and bleed them now.
23.10.2015 11:10 4 flash info (9 - Mikkelsen Andreas / Fløene Ola): It was a bit better than the previous stage, but I am not happy with my driving this morning, I have been too careful, not getting into that attacking rhythm.
23.10.2015 11:10 3 flash info (9 - Mikkelsen Andreas / Fløene Ola): It is cleaning for sure. I am not finding the perfect rhythm. I need to find that fighting spirit into every corner.
23.10.2015 10:10 2 flash info (9 - Mikkelsen Andreas / Fløene Ola): Not easy to see much in this dust. For me the three minute gap is not enough
22.10.2015 20:10 1 flash info (9 - Mikkelsen Andreas / Fløene Ola): Not a perfect one. I didn't scrub my tyres like I did last year. I braked too late for the first corner and then I made a mistake at a hairpin. So not perfect, but I saved some tyres for tomorrow.
