flash info (49 - Breen Craig / Martin Scott): I completely broke a damper today. After service I was not too far away, but on these rough stages the car was bouncing like a pogo stick. I just need a bit of luck - it's just horrific, isn't it?
flash info (45 - Kopecký Jan / Dresler Pavel): I like these stage a lot. The car is working well today - thanks to the team for that.
flash info (50 - Maurin Julien / Klinger Nicolas): Bad day for us. Maybe five punctures? One was down to me, the others I don't know. All I can do now is complete this rally.
flash info (48 - Camilli Eric / Veillas Benjamin): An engine problem all day. A long day. I'm looking forward to getting to service.
flash info (44 - Tidemand Pontus / Axelsson Emil): A slow one puncture - it happened two or three kilometres before the finish. A good day though, for sure Sweden is my favourite rally but Spain is my second.
(44 - Tidemand Pontus / Axelsson Emil): puncture
flash info (40 - Al-Kuwari Abdulaziz / Clarke Marshall): I took it easy because I didn't want to break the car. No risks, we are 10 minutes off the pace and I want to get to tomorrow's Tarmac stages for the experience.
flash info (39 - Protasov Yuriy / Cherepin Pavlo): Small mistake in the first afternoon stage cost us a lot of time. I touched a stone and broke a wheel rim.
flash info (42 - Lappi Esapekka / Ferm Janne): A few problems today but I'm keeping my eye on the dark red car of Nasser. So far everything is still open.
flash info (38 - Al-Attiyah Nasser / Baumel Matthieu): We finished the day. We want a good result here. Let's see tomorrow.
flash info (15 - Lefebvre Stéphane / Prévot Stéphane): I have a puncture. It was a difficult day for us on the gravel.
flash info (14 - Kubica Robert / Szczepaniak Maciej): We got stuck in 3rd gear… The pace was good this morning. The road position help us, but we are small team.
(15 - Lefebvre Stéphane / Prévot Stéphane): puncture
flash info (21 - Prokop Martin / Tománek Jan): It happened a few kilometers before the finish. I tried my best to save the car, there were so many impacts, so many sharp stones. I wanted to save the car for the tarmac roads tomorrow.
(21 - Prokop Martin / Tománek Jan): puncture
flash info (8 - Sordo Dani / Martí Marc): Today has been a difficult day. Of course we want to challenge the Volkswagens here. We will try our best tomorrow.
flash info (6 - Tänak Ott / Mõlder Raigo): I lost the rear tyres on the tarmac section. There was really no chance to go faster after that. But we've had a good day today. We have shown again that we have good pace on gravel.
flash info (20 - Paddon Hayden / Kennard John): This stage was an improvement on the morning but it's not a stage I enjoy. This morning was alright but I was never really comfortable. The car never felt right all afternoon.
flash info (5 - Evans Elfyn / Barritt Daniel): Particularly rough. It was much worse than the previous stages which came as a bit of a surprise. It looks like we are going to have some decent weather tomorrow.
flash info (3 - Meeke Kris / Nagle Paul): It hasn't been a great day me but we changed a few settings for this last stage and they have given me some encouragement for tomorrow.
flash info (7 - Neuville Thierry / Gilsoul Nicolas): We had a strange feeling in the last 5km but overall it was not such a bad day. We have to say thanks to the organisers for the three minutes gaps to reduce the dust.
flash info (4 - Østberg Mads / Andersson Jonas): I tried, but I struggled. I think the front-left suspension strut is broken. It gave no support to that corner. I had to be careful all the way through.
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.
flash info (2 - Latvala Jari-Matti / Anttila Miikka): Seb did very well. There were so many cuts in there, so much stuff on the road, I couldn't drive like I did earlier. A few small mistakes early on, but I couldn't have done much better. We are on the pace, much better that last year, so anything is still possible.
flash info (1 - Ogier Sébastien / Ingrassia Julien): I tried for sure. We wanted to make a difference, but this tyre wear is not enough.
