| INFORMATION ABOUT SS 7 | |
(35 - Katsuta Takamoto / Salminen Marko):
retired in SS 7 | |
|
(74 - Kasi Jukka / Ania Henri):
accident in SS 7 | |
(42 - Cave Tom / Morgan James):
Really bad rain in there. Rain was being sprayed in my eyes by the heater vent. The car is full of water. It's like Rally GB. | |
|
(40 - Huttunen Jari / Linnaketo Antti):
We tried to keep it clean but we are not the fastest R5. | |
|
(39 - Nordgren Juuso / Korhonen Mikael):
I just haven't had the feeling today. Now we get to service and start a brand new race after that. | |
|
(37 - Arai Hiroki / MacNeall Glenn):
Very fast and hard to see the line in the rain. Maybe too careful in places. It's okay. We're going step by step. | |
|
(33 - Loubet Pierre-Louis / Landais Vincent):
A good performance this morning. We try and continue to push this afternoon. | |
|
(32 - Tempestini Simone / Bernacchini Giovanni):
A difficult morning for me and everyone I think. Now we have service and I hope we can find a more comfortable set-up for these fantastic stages. | |
|
(8 - Al Qassimi Khalid / Patterson Chris):
In the rain near the start the surface was so shiny and slippery. | |
|
(15 - Suninen Teemu / Markkula Mikko):
A lot of rain at the beginning and at the end. In places it was difficult to see, only 100 or 150 metres in sixth gear is not good. | |
|
(14 - Østberg Mads / Eriksen Torstein):
That's good. A good stage for me but tricky with the rain, it was really heavy for the first kilometre. I felt I had a good rhythm. | |
|
(12 - Lappi Esapekka / Ferm Janne):
It went well. I could feel the grip was changing a lot but that's how it is in rally. After the caution on the first stage it's been a good step up this morning. It feels good. Still a really long way to go. | |
|
(7 - Meeke Kris / Nagle Paul):
I can't place the car like I want to. I just can't do the right thing. Okay, we have to get back to service and see what we can do. | |
|
(11 - Hänninen Juho / Lindström Kaj):
I would say an okay morning, pretty happy with the car. Now we need to concentrate and do the same in the afternoon. This rain could make it interesting. | |
|
(9 - Breen Craig / Martin Scott):
Okay. I have some things to think about when I get back to service. A good loop, but I struggled with the car more as the loop progressed. It's good to be in the fight for the podium and not to have made any mistakes. | |
|
(3 - Evans Elfyn / Barritt Daniel):
It felt a little bit better. The balance changed early in this stage for some reason, but the understeer is really hampering my confidence and you need that here. Hopefully we can improve things in service. | |
|
(6 - Sordo Dani / Martí Marc):
Very fast but when you don't have a good feeling you lose a lot. Okay, I'm still here but I'm not fast enough. | |
|
(10 - Latvala Jari-Matti / Anttila Miikka):
A great start and the fight is tight. Esapekka is pushing hard. Here was better than the previous stage where I didn't have a great rhythm. | |
|
(2 - Tänak Ott / Järveoja Martin):
A tricky stage. First time through I was pretty slow, so a bit unknown. All I can do now is carry on and see what happens. | |
|
(5 - Neuville Thierry / Gilsoul Nicolas):
Good. I tried to push hard but obviously there was lots of gravel on the road now and the rear was sliding wide. We used every inch of the road. Our main contender [Ogier] now is out. We have to be in the top five this weekend. That's our goal. | |
