Information
Date and time SS Information
05.10.2018 18:10 9 flash info (10 - Østberg Mads / Eriksen Torstein): I'm getting a bit desperate because things aren't great with the suspension and I need to preserve the car. It is not easy to drive. When I was on the brake the engine stalled and I couldn't get it restarted, that should have been rally over really.
05.10.2018 17:10 8 flash info (10 - Østberg Mads / Eriksen Torstein): I think it is getting a lot slower to be honest. The heavy rain always cleans the roads and that's when the guys at the front benefit. I thought the stage was quite good, but you shouldn't lose 22sec with a drive like that so the grip must be fading.
05.10.2018 16:10 7 flash info (10 - Østberg Mads / Eriksen Torstein): The pace is not so bad, I don't think it is developing better - the conditions. I would like to be faster but I think we have almost reached the limit. We changed the suspension in service and it feels better now.
05.10.2018 12:10 4 flash info (10 - Østberg Mads / Eriksen Torstein): I struggle a bit with the feeling to be honest. I feel I have no suspension left, the car is like a boat - I crash a lot. I have no feeling with the car.
05.10.2018 11:10 3 flash info (10 - Østberg Mads / Eriksen Torstein): It was tricky, especially in the beginning I struggled a lot. Second half was a lot better, car was working better and I had a better rhythm.
05.10.2018 11:10 2 flash info (10 - Østberg Mads / Eriksen Torstein): It is a good stage, quite slippery in there. A few surprises, but we had a good push and the time is quite good so I'm pleased with that.
