Information
Date and time SS Information
21.04.2024 20:04 20 flash info (13 - Munster Grégoire / Louka Louis): It's a bit frustrating when you aren't fighting with the others but we wanted a trouble free event for this weekend, we can be happy with our season.
21.04.2024 20:04 19 flash info (13 - Munster Grégoire / Louka Louis): We worked hard with the car in the cuts, it is very dirty in the last section. We can always enjoy the stage in these cars.
21.04.2024 20:04 18 flash info (13 - Munster Grégoire / Louka Louis): It's a crazy stage, it was really difficult in Rally2 but in Rally1 every corner is jumping! Louis is doing his best, he is not breathing from start to finish. It's so fast I hope we do a good result for Rich Millener and that he is happy today, so we can party tonight.
21.04.2024 20:04 17 flash info (13 - Munster Grégoire / Louka Louis): It's a clean drive, bit of slippery asphalt in some sections. In the last few metres there is a bit of gravel in the cuts so I tried to have a good drive and make it very dirty for the others!
21.04.2024 20:04 16 flash info (13 - Munster Grégoire / Louka Louis): We were expecting rain all day and it never really came. In the morning we had two softs and this afternoon two hard. It just doesn't bite with the asphalt. First on the road is not bad as we weren't pulling out a lot, but there is a lot of cuts. It is better being behind.
21.04.2024 20:04 15 flash info (13 - Munster Grégoire / Louka Louis): It was OK, the temperature is a bit low but the road is completely dry, the slippery asphalt makes it difficult to get the grip from the tyres. But it was a good clean stage.
21.04.2024 20:04 14 flash info (13 - Munster Grégoire / Louka Louis): The rain that was in the first stage passed this stage too so the first 5km is a bit damp. You have to trust the damp, from 5km to the end it's much better for sure.
21.04.2024 20:04 13 flash info (13 - Munster Grégoire / Louka Louis): We expected rain in the morning and there was none, so I thought we should be more aggressive this afternoon, but it started to rain on the stopline. It was still OK on the hard compound.
21.04.2024 19:04 12 flash info (13 - Munster Grégoire / Louka Louis): I will prefer some rain, it would help our road position a bit more with the cuts. There is a thin layer of dust which means we're cleaning a bit and my rear tyres are thin.
21.04.2024 19:04 11 flash info (13 - Munster Grégoire / Louka Louis): It's a very fast stage, also very slippery, in the last section you do a hairpin right on very low grip asphalt. It's good to be on the front, much cleaner than yesterday. We enjoy, that's what is important.
21.04.2024 19:04 9 flash info (13 - Munster Grégoire / Louka Louis): I didn't benefit enough because I was being cautious in every corner because of yesterday, but here everything is clean. I was struggling with the tyre getting overheated, so not the perfect start.
21.04.2024 19:04 8 flash info (13 - Munster Grégoire / Louka Louis): Very difficult stage, lots of big cuts in this one, bit too low, it was a real rollercoaster. Wheels are not touching the ground anymore. We made it to the finish of the first day and that's a good thing.
21.04.2024 19:04 7 flash info (13 - Munster Grégoire / Louka Louis): This one was much better, the position is not bad in this one, you can see this in the time difference. This morning this one was hell with all the cuts, but it dried out a little bit and hopefully you can see that in the time.
21.04.2024 18:04 6 flash info (13 - Munster Grégoire / Louka Louis): It was better, there was an impact and when I switched the gear it went down two gears and when I went round the next corner there was a bump, we just hope everything is still there.
21.04.2024 18:04 5 flash info (13 - Munster Grégoire / Louka Louis): The feeling in the car is always good but there is a cloud following me round, it was hailing like hell 500m into the stage. Just this one will be an issue, with the snow. It's getting heavier and heavier.
21.04.2024 18:04 4 flash info (13 - Munster Grégoire / Louka Louis): This one was a bit better as well, but in general the road position is crazy. I've never seen that on Tarmac, first in Rally1 and now you're seeing the difference from Rally2. The very last is very slippery, but before that there were a lot of corners where I was too gentle.
21.04.2024 18:04 2 flash info (13 - Munster Grégoire / Louka Louis): It was much better than what I thought, I changed the setup after the first run and it was way better than expected. I think the snow on SS3 is not really on the road but it can melt and bring water on the road, so let's see.
21.04.2024 18:04 1 flash info (13 - Munster Grégoire / Louka Louis): The road position is crazy on this one, we didn't have the best tyre option. I see already there are lines everywhere, we just have to keep it on the road. With the cars in front the road is evolving too much.
