INFORMATION ABOUT SS 5
retired (121 - Protasov Yuriy / Sikk Kuldar): retired after SS 5
retired (102 - Tidemand Pontus / Fløene Ola): accident in SS 5
retired (105 - Suárez José António / Carrera Cándido): accident in SS 5
flash info (32 - Wiegand Sepp / Christian Frank): For me it was really difficult, I had two big moments, there is something wrong with the pacenotes.
flash info (75 - Evans Elfyn / Barritt Daniel): Not great to be honest. We struggled with the rhythm in places. It could have been better but it was not bad.
flash info (74 - Kubica Robert / Baran Maciej): It was ok, some things to improve but ok. It was not perfect.
flash info (10 - Al Qassimi Khalid / Martin Scott): Some places aggressive, some places carrying a smoother rhythm.
flash info (23 - Al-Kuwari Abdulaziz / Duffy Killian): Very bad again, very bad stage for me. The tarmac is totally different.
flash info (6 - Al-Attiyah Nasser / Bernacchini Giovanni): Nice stage, we have a lot of grip in the car, but the confidence is not there. I do not know why, but we try to finish. Until now we are quite happy and we try to finish the day.
flash info (21 - Prokop Martin / Ernst Michal): Big vibration on front left tyre. Luckily the puncture was not there, the end of the stage was very slippy, maybe the tyres were overheated or too much pressure in the tyres. It was not easy for me.
flash info (22 - Paddon Hayden / Kennard John): I am still really struggling with the rhythm of the car. Whenever I push I am getting a lot of understeer. We just got to keep learning from this.
flash info (5 - Novikov Evgeny / Minor Ilka): It was quite good. I was a bit careful with the cuts, not to have a puncture.
flash info (4 - Østberg Mads / Andersson Jonas): It was ok, it felt a little bit better. It is going in a better direction and at least I feel more comfortable. Trying to push even more.
flash info (11 - Neuville Thierry / Gilsoul Nicolas): I am pushing to the maximum, but there is nothing I can do for the moment. I am on the limit with the feeling I have for the moment. I feel like I am doing well, but we must work on the settings, there is something strange. I have no idea for the moment. I am on the maximum, I cannot do more.
flash info (2 - Hirvonen Mikko / Lehtinen Jarmo): I was just driving like always, it felt really slippy, the tyres start to move in the finish. We are happy with that.
flash info (3 - Sordo Dani / Del Barrio Carlos): In this stage the car was really nice, but we cannot push more as the tyres get very hot. I am happy. I try to do all the time pushing, pushing but at the same time I want to conserver the tyres.
flash info (7 - Latvala Jari-Matti / Anttila Miikka): It is an impressive stage. Good stage I really enjoyed it. There is new tarmac after 15 kilometres and you have it for 8 or 9 kilometres, I did not drive well there.
flash info (8 - Ogier Sébastien / Ingrassia Julien): It was ok. Long stage and the tyres are suffering a lot, you cannot push all the way. I just have fun in the car and see what happens. I am not afraid to open the road tomorrow.
