(3 - Meeke Kris / Nagle Paul):
I had to slow down towards the end. Kubica was right in front of us, we had to drive 35km in his dust. | |
| (38 - Protasov Yuriy / Cherepin Pavlo): stopped again | |
(5 - Evans Elfyn / Barritt Daniel):
Difficult, I did not have much grip, the last half I was struggling a lot. | |
(4 - Østberg Mads / Andersson Jonas):
So incredible to do a stage like that without splits, you have no idea. You try to push a bit more and you know you are on the limit. | |
(9 - Mikkelsen Andreas / Fløene Ola):
It is a very tricky stage this one. Of course you can go faster if you know the stage, but I am happy with that stage. From this morning, I improved a lot. We are not pushing to the maximum. | |
| (38 - Protasov Yuriy / Cherepin Pavlo): stopped in stage, continue | |
(1 - Ogier Sébastien / Ingrassia Julien):
Good stage, I am happy with this. Of course trying to be safe. Happy that this stage is done, it can be a difficult one. | |
(23 - Guerra Benito / Rozada Borja):
Much better, I did not make any big mistakes in this stage. Much better, I think I have more pace with the car and have more confidence. The rear suspension is giving me a lot of problems in the compressions. If you brake out of the line, you are in big trouble. | |
(7 - Neuville Thierry / Gilsoul Nicolas):
It was quite efficient in the slow corners. | |
(24 - Kubica Robert / Szczepaniak Maciej):
After 10-kilometres we have front left puncture, we stop to change it. We do not have another spare. | |
| (24 - Kubica Robert / Szczepaniak Maciej): puncture | |
(20 - Paddon Hayden / Kennard John):
We had a problem in the second half of the last stage. The engine is way down on power and I am hoping we have not damaged the engine. We did not have the problem this morning, but we have it this afternoon. | |
| (24 - Kubica Robert / Szczepaniak Maciej): stopped in stage, continue | |
