19. 11. 2017 11:41 CET 		21 flash info (5 - Neuville Thierry / Gilsoul Nicolas): This win is a special one - it goes to the whole team, they have worked so hard. It wasn't always easy but we kept the motivation high. We round off the year with a win and second in the championship. Thanks to everyone in the team both here and at the factory - great job guys.
19. 11. 2017 21:40
19. 11. 2017 11:40 CET 		21 flash info (4 - Paddon Hayden / Marshall Sebastian): We don't deserve it, we just did the job we could. Ok, it's a bittersweet feeling. Last year we lost a podium here, this time it seems to be the reverse.

19. 11. 2017 11:39 CET 		21 flash info (2 - Tänak Ott / Järveoja Martin): I've been in this family for a long, long time. I've learned a lot of hard lessons, and this year with Seb was a great experience. I'm sure I will be strong in the future so thank you Malcolm and thank you M-Sport.
19. 11. 2017 21:38
19. 11. 2017 11:38 CET 		21 flash info (4 - Paddon Hayden / Marshall Sebastian): A difficult year, I'm glad it's over. I think this weekend gives us some light at the end of the tunnel. And next year? I know I won't be in Monte Carlo, so I'm looking forward to a long break at home in New Zealand.
19. 11. 2017 21:38
19. 11. 2017 11:38 CET 		21 flash info (1 - Ogier Sébastien / Ingrassia Julien): For now I will only say this was my last stage for 2017. It was a tough weekend for sure, a few issues and the start position too, but it's been a fantastic season for us. Now we look forward to the prize giving and collecting the trophy.
19. 11. 2017 21:38
19. 11. 2017 11:38 CET 		21 flash info (3 - Evans Elfyn / Barritt Daniel): It's been an incredible season, I've had a really good year in terms of working with some great people. Dmack have done an incredible job, it's been interesting and I've really enjoyed it.
19. 11. 2017 21:37
19. 11. 2017 11:37 CET 		21 flash info (11 - Lappi Esapekka / Ferm Janne): I really tried to push. I'm a bit disappointed because I screwed up the watersplash, otherwise it was a good stage. The set-up was too soft but I didn't care - I just gave it a go.
19. 11. 2017 21:37
19. 11. 2017 11:37 CET 		21 flash info (9 - Meeke Kris / Nagle Paul): I made one mistake in here and lost a second or so. This event sort of sums up my season. If we put in the work and do what we're talking about, we'll be alright next year.
19. 11. 2017 21:36
19. 11. 2017 11:36 CET 		21 flash info (6 - Mikkelsen Andreas / Jæger Anders): I think we can expect good things next year. It's good to sit here and know I'm in the right car for next year. The team is great, the car is fantastic. I'm ready for 2018.
19. 11. 2017 21:36
19. 11. 2017 11:36 CET 		21 flash info (21 - Serderidis Jourdan / Miclotte Fréderic): Fantastic, so nice and so happy for my co-driver Fred. A perfect rally.
19. 11. 2017 21:35
19. 11. 2017 11:35 CET 		21 flash info (68 - Quinn Nathan / Searcy Ben): I've got no words at the moment. I've waited too long to be Australian champion. Thanks to everyone, I'm so stoked.
19. 11. 2017 21:35
19. 11. 2017 11:35 CET 		21 flash info (31 - Rovanperä Kalle / Halttunen Jonne): A really nice weekend for me, when it was dry it was really nice to drive. Today it was a bit harder but all good learning for me.
19. 11. 2017 21:34
19. 11. 2017 11:34 CET 		21 Running order: 1.Rovanperä, 2.Quinn, 3.Serderidis, 4.Mikkelsen, 5.Meeke, 6.Lappi, 7.Evans, 8.Ogier, 9.Paddon, 10.Tänak, 11.Latvala, 12.Neuville

19. 11. 2017 11:30 CET 		19 flash info (6 - Mikkelsen Andreas / Jæger Anders): I'm not really fighting for much today, and when it's like that you drive accordingly. I think we've been very unlucky with the weather - it's like a cloud has been following us all day. Hopefully later we can have some good fun on the Power Stage.
19. 11. 2017 21:30
19. 11. 2017 11:30 CET 		19 flash info (9 - Meeke Kris / Nagle Paul): Tricky. Just treating it like a high-speed recce for experience because we're not in the overall mix.
19. 11. 2017 21:29
19. 11. 2017 11:29 CET 		19 flash info (5 - Neuville Thierry / Gilsoul Nicolas): That was a hell of a ride. Really, really tricky conditions but I kept it on the road. It was close sometimes and I had to be clever. How confident am I of winning? The gap now is about one second per kilometre for the two stages to come, so it should be alright.
19. 11. 2017 21:29
19. 11. 2017 11:29 CET 		19 flash info (10 - Latvala Jari-Matti / Anttila Miikka): I think we had a good stage in very tricky conditions. I'm happy with the time compared to Ott, now it will be interesting to see Thierry's. I think it's drying out a bit, but not enough to make a difference between us.
19. 11. 2017 21:29
19. 11. 2017 11:29 CET 		19 flash info (2 - Tänak Ott / Järveoja Martin): It was slippy like hell. So, so tricky. Can I catch Latvala? In conditions like this I can't plan anything.
19. 11. 2017 21:28
19. 11. 2017 11:28 CET 		19 flash info (4 - Paddon Hayden / Marshall Sebastian): We took it safely. Now we have a big gap ahead and when conditions are like this I'm not prepared to take risks. It reminds me of Portugal 2012 - tricky conditions and grip that is very tricky to read. This hasn't been the best weekend but fourth place would be a good way to round off the year.
19. 11. 2017 21:27
19. 11. 2017 11:27 CET 		19 flash info (1 - Ogier Sébastien / Ingrassia Julien): Changing conditions and still a lot of trouble for us in the car with the gear shift. I'm looking forward to the end of the season now. And the early check-in? We had gearbox problem which disturbed us a little and in a panic we had an early check in.
19. 11. 2017 21:26
19. 11. 2017 11:26 CET 		19 flash info (3 - Evans Elfyn / Barritt Daniel): I was being careful because the car was aquaplaning a lot and we had very worn front tyres.
19. 11. 2017 21:26
19. 11. 2017 11:26 CET 		18 flash info (6 - Mikkelsen Andreas / Jæger Anders): Very, very changeable conditions. Very up and down with the rain. Just playing it safe and saving some tyres for later. Very easy to make a mistake in there.
19. 11. 2017 21:26
19. 11. 2017 11:26 CET 		18 flash info (9 - Meeke Kris / Nagle Paul): Horrendous. Absolutely horrendous. It's hellish in there. Like being on ice, so close to the trees.
19. 11. 2017 21:25
19. 11. 2017 11:25 CET 		18 flash info (5 - Neuville Thierry / Gilsoul Nicolas): I couldn't do more in the rain. I tried to do my best. I will manage.
19. 11. 2017 21:25
19. 11. 2017 11:25 CET 		18 flash info (10 - Latvala Jari-Matti / Anttila Miikka): The rain came and it was very, very slippery at the start. I didn't want to take any big risks. That is just the way it is. Also we are a little down on engine power. We need to go and have a look.
19. 11. 2017 21:25
19. 11. 2017 11:25 CET 		18 flash info (2 - Tänak Ott / Järveoja Martin): For sure its very tricky with the rain. The last part was all dry. It's not too extreme at the moment.
19. 11. 2017 21:24
19. 11. 2017 11:24 CET 		18 flash info (4 - Paddon Hayden / Marshall Sebastian): In the middle there was quite a bit of rain, it's coming and going. This weekend we've found some things that have affected my confidence all year. All a bit late, unfortunately.
19. 11. 2017 21:24
19. 11. 2017 11:24 CET 		18 flash info (1 - Ogier Sébastien / Ingrassia Julien): A lot of issues for us. The gear shifting again. The same problem all weekend for us.
19. 11. 2017 21:24
19. 11. 2017 11:24 CET 		18 flash info (3 - Evans Elfyn / Barritt Daniel): Gear selection problem.

19. 11. 2017 21:21
19. 11. 2017 11:21 CET 		17 flash info (9 - Meeke Kris / Nagle Paul): Massive rain in the middle of the stage. I couldn't even see the road though the wipers. For us it was a monsoon.
19. 11. 2017 21:21
19. 11. 2017 11:21 CET 		17 flash info (5 - Neuville Thierry / Gilsoul Nicolas): We have a comfortable gap so we need to be clever and manage it well. Maybe we were too careful here but in the end we only lose one second.
19. 11. 2017 21:21
19. 11. 2017 11:21 CET 		17 flash info (10 - Latvala Jari-Matti / Anttila Miikka): The first part was okay but towards the end it was slippery and not easy to drive. I took it steady there because I wanted a clean run.
19. 11. 2017 21:21
19. 11. 2017 11:21 CET 		17 flash info (2 - Tänak Ott / Järveoja Martin): It's getting slippery for sure. This stage didn't feel so good. Let's see what the next one is like.
19. 11. 2017 21:20
19. 11. 2017 11:20 CET 		17 flash info (8 - Breen Craig / Martin Scott): The rain is starting to come down really heavily in the stage now. The next stage should be a bit more consistent for everybody.
19. 11. 2017 21:20
19. 11. 2017 11:20 CET 		17 flash info (4 - Paddon Hayden / Marshall Sebastian): I'm trying some new things today, and getting used to the car now it feels a bit different.
19. 11. 2017 21:20
19. 11. 2017 11:20 CET 		17 flash info (7 - Lefebvre Stéphane / Moreau Gabin): I touched one tree.
19. 11. 2017 21:19
19. 11. 2017 11:19 CET 		17 (7 - Lefebvre Stéphane / Moreau Gabin): was out of road
19. 11. 2017 21:18
19. 11. 2017 11:18 CET 		17 flash info (3 - Evans Elfyn / Barritt Daniel): All ok, no problems. The watersplash was particularly deep, the visibility goes pretty quickly, but no drama.
19. 11. 2017 21:18
19. 11. 2017 11:18 CET 		17 flash info (11 - Lappi Esapekka / Ferm Janne): Conditions are not so bad. The grip is good apart from the last 2 or 3km where it is very slippery. The water-splashes are really deep - the car almost stopped when we hit them.
19. 11. 2017 21:16
19. 11. 2017 11:16 CET 		16 retired (73 - Hatton Justin / Fisher Steve): retired in SS 16

19. 11. 2017 21:01
19. 11. 2017 11:01 CET 		14 Stage was cancelled because a damaged bridge.

19. 11. 2017 10:50 CET 		13 (31 - Rovanperä Kalle / Halttunen Jonne): puncture
19. 11. 2017 20:50
19. 11. 2017 10:50 CET 		13 flash info (5 - Neuville Thierry / Gilsoul Nicolas): I try. This was a bit more slippery and I struggled a bit with oversteer. Not so much fun, but the time is good. We must carry on like this.
19. 11. 2017 20:49
19. 11. 2017 10:49 CET 		13 flash info (10 - Latvala Jari-Matti / Anttila Miikka): It's a tough fight with Thierry. He is very strong. I'm trying but somehow he seeks to find something extra. Can I win? There are many stages to go and you never give up until the final metre of the final stage.
19. 11. 2017 20:49
19. 11. 2017 10:49 CET 		13 flash info (8 - Breen Craig / Martin Scott): I wasn't as committed in that one, not such a great rhythm. Also I had a butterfly in front of me for much of the stage - all part of the jungle experience.
19. 11. 2017 20:49
19. 11. 2017 10:49 CET 		13 flash info (2 - Tänak Ott / Järveoja Martin): Unfortunately we had a puncture in the previous one so we had to use a very worn soft tyre here that I was keeping for the Super Special. It was difficult, not so good.
19. 11. 2017 20:49
19. 11. 2017 10:49 CET 		13 flash info (4 - Paddon Hayden / Marshall Sebastian): Hard to say. Sometimes hard, sometimes soft. The Australian weather has thrown us a curve ball this year.
19. 11. 2017 20:48
19. 11. 2017 10:48 CET 		13 flash info (1 - Ogier Sébastien / Ingrassia Julien): It is under-steering more. Now it's just about driving through and trying to finish this day.
19. 11. 2017 20:48
19. 11. 2017 10:48 CET 		13 flash info (7 - Lefebvre Stéphane / Moreau Gabin): We destroyed our tyres a bit in the first one and I have a lot of understeer here. For the moment not so bad.
19. 11. 2017 20:48
19. 11. 2017 10:48 CET 		13 flash info (3 - Evans Elfyn / Barritt Daniel): Tricky. If I didn't have understeer I had oversteer. Difficult mixed conditions. More loose that I expected.
19. 11. 2017 20:47
19. 11. 2017 10:47 CET 		13 flash info (11 - Lappi Esapekka / Ferm Janne): Horrible. Not cleaning at all. I couldn't find any grip.
19. 11. 2017 20:46
19. 11. 2017 10:46 CET 		12 retired (9 - Meeke Kris / Nagle Paul): retired after SS 12

19. 11. 2017 10:43 CET 		12 retired (74 - Morton Wayne / Benson Megan): retired in SS 12
19. 11. 2017 20:43
19. 11. 2017 10:43 CET 		12 flash info (9 - Meeke Kris / Nagle Paul): Near the start we went over a narrow bridge and I just touched the rear - something is broken.
19. 11. 2017 20:43
19. 11. 2017 10:43 CET 		12 flash info (5 - Neuville Thierry / Gilsoul Nicolas): I got into the stage, the tyres felt good so I decided to give it a go. I kept going and when it started to get dry I really pushed hard.
19. 11. 2017 20:42
19. 11. 2017 10:42 CET 		12 flash info (10 - Latvala Jari-Matti / Anttila Miikka): I tried what I could and towards the end it was very slippery. I took it a bit careful there but overall a good stage. The next two stages will be very important in the battle with Neuville.
19. 11. 2017 20:42
19. 11. 2017 10:42 CET 		12 flash info (8 - Breen Craig / Martin Scott): Not so bad. The end of the stage - the last 2km - was a little messy but overall not so bad.
19. 11. 2017 20:42
19. 11. 2017 10:42 CET 		12 flash info (4 - Paddon Hayden / Marshall Sebastian): The weather is playing a big part here. The final downhill section that was 100 per cent dry is now very muddy - it's getting worse.
19. 11. 2017 20:41
19. 11. 2017 10:41 CET 		12 flash info (1 - Ogier Sébastien / Ingrassia Julien): That will make it tricky. It happened less than 1km before the finish. It was very slippery, I went wide, spun into a bank and lost the bumper.
19. 11. 2017 20:41
19. 11. 2017 10:41 CET 		12 flash info (7 - Lefebvre Stéphane / Moreau Gabin): A bit better that earlier but I spun one more time and I think I lost 15 seconds. I braked too late, spun and stalled the engine.
19. 11. 2017 20:41
19. 11. 2017 10:41 CET 		12 flash info (3 - Evans Elfyn / Barritt Daniel): Damp at the start with okay grip for about the first 7km. Then it's full dry and then the last 3km was pretty difficult.
19. 11. 2017 20:40
19. 11. 2017 10:40 CET 		12 flash info (11 - Lappi Esapekka / Ferm Janne): The last part - the last 3.5km - oh my God! It was so slippery and it changed so quickly. I had some margin but if you come too fast you have no chance.
18. 11. 2017 11:15
18. 11. 2017 01:15 CET 		11 flash info (5 - Neuville Thierry / Gilsoul Nicolas): I'm really disappointed for Andreas (Mikkelsen), it was nice fight but it looks like he punctured at the same place where we went off. We are a bit in trouble ... no first gear.
18. 11. 2017 11:14
18. 11. 2017 01:14 CET 		11 flash info (2 - Tänak Ott / Järveoja Martin): We are still a bit far from the top. Definitely we need some more performance...
18. 11. 2017 11:13
18. 11. 2017 01:13 CET 		11 flash info (1 - Ogier Sébastien / Ingrassia Julien): I'm not really part of any fight this weekend ...

19. 11. 2017 20:36
19. 11. 2017 10:36 CET 		10 flash info (6 - Mikkelsen Andreas / Jæger Anders): It happened 2km after the start on a right-hander over a crest. In third or fourth gear I went wide and touched the bank quite hard. I thought I had just a rear puncture but soon after I felt the front too. I have one spare so it doesn't look like we'll be going any further. It's devastating, but what can you do? We are trying to push as hard as we can, sometimes you get away with it, but not today. With our tyre choice we didn't consider two spares. We were saving our tyres for later.
18. 11. 2017 11:14
18. 11. 2017 01:14 CET 		10 flash info (4 - Paddon Hayden / Marshall Sebastian): If I look at the timing board I get disappointed.
18. 11. 2017 11:11
18. 11. 2017 01:11 CET 		10 (6 - Mikkelsen Andreas / Jæger Anders): front and rear left puncture in SS10

18. 11. 2017 11:09
18. 11. 2017 01:09 CET 		10 flash info (5 - Neuville Thierry / Gilsoul Nicolas): I went straight on at a junction. I was following lines in the road, I braked too late and had to reverse. I have broken something on the gearbox too.
18. 11. 2017 11:08
18. 11. 2017 01:08 CET 		10 flash info (10 - Latvala Jari-Matti / Anttila Miikka): The secret is not to be afraid of the trees...you have to use all the road.

18. 11. 2017 01:00 CET 		9 flash info (5 - Neuville Thierry / Gilsoul Nicolas): I was sweating like hell and it affected my concentration.
18. 11. 2017 10:59
18. 11. 2017 00:59 CET 		9 flash info (10 - Latvala Jari-Matti / Anttila Miikka): I had a big attack, maybe too aggressive at the beginning. When the conditions are like this you have to take chances.
18. 11. 2017 10:57
18. 11. 2017 00:57 CET 		9 flash info (4 - Paddon Hayden / Marshall Sebastian): I've never driven this stage so badly in my life, with the rain, full wet and mud and then dry. On these tyres it was tricky. We had to look after the soft tyres...we don't have many.
18. 11. 2017 10:57
18. 11. 2017 00:57 CET 		9 flash info (1 - Ogier Sébastien / Ingrassia Julien): Full wet would have been nicer for us. Let's see what the next stage looks like. I think it will be difficult to get back in the fight but we will not give up.
18. 11. 2017 10:56
18. 11. 2017 00:56 CET 		9 flash info (7 - Lefebvre Stéphane / Moreau Gabin): We spun and it took some time to restart.
18. 11. 2017 10:55
18. 11. 2017 00:55 CET 		9 flash info (3 - Evans Elfyn / Barritt Daniel): The grip was extremely low.
18. 11. 2017 10:54
18. 11. 2017 00:54 CET 		9 flash info (11 - Lappi Esapekka / Ferm Janne): It was wet near the start so the grip was good but then it dried up and we started to fight. But we supposed it.

19. 11. 2017 10:25 CET 		6 flash info (7 - Lefebvre Stéphane / Moreau Gabin): In the last five kilometers I lost the rhythm a bit. I made a small mistake and lost my concentration. I lost a few seconds there. Considering the punctures this was not the day I was expecting.
19. 11. 2017 20:25
19. 11. 2017 10:25 CET 		6 flash info (11 - Lappi Esapekka / Ferm Janne): It's difficult to judge the corner grip here, it feels like a first pass.
19. 11. 2017 20:24
19. 11. 2017 10:24 CET 		6 flash info (6 - Mikkelsen Andreas / Jæger Anders): Really amazing. I'm really enjoying my third rally with Hyundai - the car feels like home now. Things are looking very good.
19. 11. 2017 20:24
19. 11. 2017 10:24 CET 		6 flash info (4 - Paddon Hayden / Marshall Sebastian): The soft tyre was not the right choice. It felt like I had a puncture here.
19. 11. 2017 20:23
19. 11. 2017 10:23 CET 		6 flash info (8 - Breen Craig / Martin Scott): I had a fairly huge jump near the end. I had a bad feeling near the start, a bad vibration, I hit a bale.
19. 11. 2017 20:23
19. 11. 2017 10:23 CET 		6 flash info (9 - Meeke Kris / Nagle Paul): Fine. Just trying to figure it out. Neuville on hard tyres has made two seconds over the loop. Seems like the tyres choices were a mixed bag.
19. 11. 2017 20:23
19. 11. 2017 10:23 CET 		6 flash info (3 - Evans Elfyn / Barritt Daniel): Pretty good. It felt like a good run.
19. 11. 2017 20:22
19. 11. 2017 10:22 CET 		6 flash info (10 - Latvala Jari-Matti / Anttila Miikka): I wanted to to be faster than that but I did all I could on these hard tyres. It was not so clean as I thought, especially in the cuts where there was dirt on the road. I was a bit too careful where it was dirty.
19. 11. 2017 20:22
19. 11. 2017 10:22 CET 		6 flash info (2 - Tänak Ott / Järveoja Martin): Same as this morning with the missing aero. No other issues.
19. 11. 2017 20:22
19. 11. 2017 10:22 CET 		6 flash info (5 - Neuville Thierry / Gilsoul Nicolas): I struggled a bit on the soft tyres here - especially at the rear. I couldn't really push and lost a bit of time here.
19. 11. 2017 20:19
19. 11. 2017 10:19 CET 		6 flash info (1 - Ogier Sébastien / Ingrassia Julien): It's been a tough day for us. We tried to do our best but for sure it's not so easy to drive with the gear shift problem. We didn't manage to fix it this time - the paddles worked intermittently here.
19. 11. 2017 20:19
19. 11. 2017 10:19 CET 		5 flash info (7 - Lefebvre Stéphane / Moreau Gabin): Same story as before - I have one more puncture in the first stage. With one spare I have to be careful. Not good.
19. 11. 2017 20:19
19. 11. 2017 10:19 CET 		5 flash info (11 - Lappi Esapekka / Ferm Janne): I was giving my all but I couldn't judge the grip level on the first pass. It seems I am too slow.
19. 11. 2017 20:18
19. 11. 2017 10:18 CET 		5 flash info (6 - Mikkelsen Andreas / Jæger Anders): It was good clean stage with no problems, just trying to keep a good rhythm.
19. 11. 2017 20:18
19. 11. 2017 10:18 CET 		5 flash info (4 - Paddon Hayden / Marshall Sebastian): Trying to attack a bit more. It went a bit better here but still room for improvement. I don't expect tyre wear will be a problem on the next stage.
19. 11. 2017 20:18
19. 11. 2017 10:18 CET 		5 flash info (8 - Breen Craig / Martin Scott): Not really satisfied, I had to leave the soft tyre on for this stage.
19. 11. 2017 20:18
19. 11. 2017 10:18 CET 		5 flash info (9 - Meeke Kris / Nagle Paul): A good stage, I couldn't do any more. Quite happy with my tyres. Hopefully it's a good package for the next stage. Let's see.
19. 11. 2017 20:17
19. 11. 2017 10:17 CET 		5 flash info (3 - Evans Elfyn / Barritt Daniel): A bit better on the repeat pass, for sure I have a bit more confidence.
19. 11. 2017 20:17
19. 11. 2017 10:17 CET 		5 flash info (10 - Latvala Jari-Matti / Anttila Miikka): We took a hard tyre, and on the loose gravel its okay, but on the polished surfaces I'm struggling.
19. 11. 2017 20:17
19. 11. 2017 10:17 CET 		5 flash info (2 - Tänak Ott / Järveoja Martin): It was quite a slippery road, not so easy, and no aero again, so quite challenging. We are driving looking through the side windows.
19. 11. 2017 20:16
19. 11. 2017 10:16 CET 		5 flash info (5 - Neuville Thierry / Gilsoul Nicolas): Maybe sliding a little too much but I tried to push. Did Sebastien have a problem? If not, it would be too big a gap.
19. 11. 2017 20:16
19. 11. 2017 10:16 CET 		5 flash info (1 - Ogier Sébastien / Ingrassia Julien): The gear shift issue makes it harder but we do our best. I think it's an electronic issue.
19. 11. 2017 19:53
19. 11. 2017 09:53 CET 		4 flash info (6 - Mikkelsen Andreas / Jæger Anders): A good stage. I took the compression quite hard but otherwise good. Still quite slippery though.
19. 11. 2017 19:53
19. 11. 2017 09:53 CET 		4 flash info (4 - Paddon Hayden / Marshall Sebastian): Still not quite on it as much as everyone else. Two or three little mistakes here and they all add up.
19. 11. 2017 19:52
19. 11. 2017 09:52 CET 		4 flash info (8 - Breen Craig / Martin Scott): I think it happened near the start. I have four hard tyres and one soft - that tyre was coming off anyway. I'm really happy with my choice for the whole loop.
19. 11. 2017 19:52
19. 11. 2017 09:52 CET 		4 flash info (9 - Meeke Kris / Nagle Paul): Ok, just one bad dip near the start. Everyone is on a bit of a mixture of tyres. I'm happy with mine.
19. 11. 2017 19:51
19. 11. 2017 09:51 CET 		4 flash info (3 - Evans Elfyn / Barritt Daniel): I think we blew a seal in the water splash.
19. 11. 2017 19:51
19. 11. 2017 09:51 CET 		4 flash info (10 - Latvala Jari-Matti / Anttila Miikka): We hit a stick in a bank 3 km from the start. It isn't too messy. I took it maybe too careful in the beginning after that I got better.
19. 11. 2017 19:50
19. 11. 2017 09:50 CET 		4 flash info (5 - Neuville Thierry / Gilsoul Nicolas): All good. It's working. Quite slippery but better than this morning.
19. 11. 2017 19:49
19. 11. 2017 09:49 CET 		4 flash info (1 - Ogier Sébastien / Ingrassia Julien): Again a shifting issue. Inconsistent.

17. 11. 2017 00:30 CET 		3 flash info (31 - Rovanperä Kalle / Halttunen Jonne): Really nice - my best stage ever in conditions like this. I'm starting to trust my new pace notes so it's much nicer to drive.
17. 11. 2017 10:29
17. 11. 2017 00:29 CET 		3 flash info (7 - Lefebvre Stéphane / Moreau Gabin): I'm happy with this one. A lot of road cleaning and it's better for us.
17. 11. 2017 10:29
17. 11. 2017 00:29 CET 		3 flash info (11 - Lappi Esapekka / Ferm Janne): It's tough, but there's really no point to drive faster. I'm already on the edge of keeping the car on the road.
17. 11. 2017 10:22
17. 11. 2017 00:22 CET 		3 flash info (6 - Mikkelsen Andreas / Jæger Anders): It's been a good morning and the car is acting just as I want it too. I was lifting the throttle way to much in here, so we'll change that for the second run. We're really enjoying our time in the car and these beautiful stages.
17. 11. 2017 10:21
17. 11. 2017 00:21 CET 		3 flash info (4 - Paddon Hayden / Marshall Sebastian): A nice stage, and maybe it's just the conditions, but it feels like we have no engine power. Because of that our pace notes are too slow and we're having to make adjustments. We'll take a look in service.
17. 11. 2017 10:21
17. 11. 2017 00:21 CET 		3 flash info (8 - Breen Craig / Martin Scott): That was awesome. When it all comes together it's just absolutely perfect. I love what I do.
17. 11. 2017 10:20
17. 11. 2017 00:20 CET 		3 flash info (3 - Evans Elfyn / Barritt Daniel): The first half was exceptionally difficult - so little grip when it's loose. But when we went off down hill it didn't seem so bad.
17. 11. 2017 10:06
17. 11. 2017 00:06 CET 		3 flash info (10 - Latvala Jari-Matti / Anttila Miikka): I'm happy with the car now after the intercom issue. I thought we had a good run here but when I look at the other times I'm not so sure. I wanted to be closer to Ott.
17. 11. 2017 10:05
17. 11. 2017 00:05 CET 		3 flash info (2 - Tänak Ott / Järveoja Martin): Maybe I was not smart enough on the previous stage when I tried to rebalance the set-up after losing the diffuser. This time I made settings the other way, to give a lot more grip to the rear, and it was much more driveable.
17. 11. 2017 10:00
17. 11. 2017 00:00 CET 		3 flash info (5 - Neuville Thierry / Gilsoul Nicolas): I tried to give my best in here, it's a very fast stage with a lot of cleaning. Okay, I took something from Ogler but I guess we'll lose more to the guys behind.
17. 11. 2017 09:59
16. 11. 2017 23:59 CET 		3 flash info (1 - Ogier Sébastien / Ingrassia Julien): The gear shift was working properly this time, it an electric problem and we could fix it. This stage was like driving on a beach though - no grip.

16. 11. 2017 23:31 CET 		2 flash info (21 - Serderidis Jourdan / Miclotte Fréderic): A little bit loose in the last part otherwise we have chosen the right set up for traction. A good start. Our objective here is to have fun and to get my co-driver Fred the WRC Trophy co-drivers' title.
17. 11. 2017 09:25
16. 11. 2017 23:25 CET 		2 flash info (31 - Rovanperä Kalle / Halttunen Jonne): It's okay but I have a new pace note system and I have to think about them more. I need to learn more about them in the technical sections. The rally is fun and going really well.
17. 11. 2017 09:25
16. 11. 2017 23:25 CET 		2 flash info (7 - Lefebvre Stéphane / Moreau Gabin): I have no spare wheel now. I can go faster but I must finish the loop.
17. 11. 2017 09:24
16. 11. 2017 23:24 CET 		2 flash info (11 - Lappi Esapekka / Ferm Janne): I lost the power steering suddenly - I have no idea why. On a hairpin right there was a step up and I just couldn't keep the wheel in my hand, the steering is so stiff, and I needed to reverse. I will try my best on the next stage but it's going to be tough.
17. 11. 2017 09:14
16. 11. 2017 23:14 CET 		2 flash info (6 - Mikkelsen Andreas / Jæger Anders): I enjoy these stage. A good start to the morning. We must continue like this. The dust is bad in places but we try not to think about it.
17. 11. 2017 09:13
16. 11. 2017 23:13 CET 		2 flash info (8 - Breen Craig / Martin Scott): You need big confidence here, big Kahunas! You have to push as hard as you can. We need to keep pushing to get a good position for tomorrow.
17. 11. 2017 09:12
16. 11. 2017 23:12 CET 		2 flash info (9 - Meeke Kris / Nagle Paul): It happened on a slow corner, we touched a bank. There is really bad dust in here - it's on the limit I'd say. We need to think about increasing the time gap.
17. 11. 2017 09:10
16. 11. 2017 23:10 CET 		2 flash info (3 - Evans Elfyn / Barritt Daniel): Patches of really bad dust in here. The grip was pretty bad, it's always the same here.
17. 11. 2017 09:10
16. 11. 2017 23:10 CET 		2 flash info (10 - Latvala Jari-Matti / Anttila Miikka): The intercom is good now, the cable to my helmet was broken but we fitted a spare. Without the front diffuser the front turn-in wasn't so good. I didn't expect this stage to be so tough.
17. 11. 2017 08:56
16. 11. 2017 22:56 CET 		2 flash info (2 - Tänak Ott / Järveoja Martin): We need to take a look at the settings
17. 11. 2017 08:54
16. 11. 2017 22:54 CET 		2 flash info (5 - Neuville Thierry / Gilsoul Nicolas): I was able to push more I but I am moving around too much - tricky grip and I am hesitating too much.
17. 11. 2017 08:53
16. 11. 2017 22:53 CET 		2 (1 - Ogier Sébastien / Ingrassia Julien): Gear selection issue. He has switched to the manual system.
17. 11. 2017 08:53
16. 11. 2017 22:53 CET 		1 flash info (6 - Mikkelsen Andreas / Jæger Anders): A clean drive, no mistakes. I'm happy with that. I could have pushed more but for a first stage that was a clean run.
17. 11. 2017 08:53
16. 11. 2017 22:53 CET 		1 flash info (4 - Paddon Hayden / Marshall Sebastian): It felt quite strange near the start, like I had a rear puncture, but it didn't get any worse so maybe the rear is just moving around. We'll have a look before the next one.
17. 11. 2017 08:52
16. 11. 2017 22:52 CET 		1 flash info (8 - Breen Craig / Martin Scott): Okay, but it took me too long to get started in here. The stage time is in the ball park, we'll keep the push on.
17. 11. 2017 08:52
16. 11. 2017 22:52 CET 		1 flash info (9 - Meeke Kris / Nagle Paul): I'm quite surprised by Seb's time from first on the road. I expected the road to clean. I'm happy with my run.
17. 11. 2017 08:52
16. 11. 2017 22:52 CET 		1 flash info (3 - Evans Elfyn / Barritt Daniel): Not so bad, but the grip seemed very, very low.
17. 11. 2017 08:52
16. 11. 2017 22:52 CET 		1 flash info (10 - Latvala Jari-Matti / Anttila Miikka): I think it happened at the first corner - under heavy braking we hit one of the rubber things that protect the road. Otherwise I didn't drive well, I have a problem with the intercom - a broken cable I think. I didn't hear all the notes, very distracting.
17. 11. 2017 08:51
16. 11. 2017 22:51 CET 		1 flash info (2 - Tänak Ott / Järveoja Martin): They are doing a good job I guess - nothing else. Not such a good feeling with the car here.
17. 11. 2017 08:51
16. 11. 2017 22:51 CET 		1 flash info (5 - Neuville Thierry / Gilsoul Nicolas): It was okay, I was not pushing very hard. The grip was higher than I expected on these soft tyres, there was some dust hanging around, I didn't go really really fast. I think the early split is a mistake - I kept the same rhythm throughout.
17. 11. 2017 08:50
16. 11. 2017 22:50 CET 		1 flash info (1 - Ogier Sébastien / Ingrassia Julien): It's rough in places, a bad watersplash and compression but we didn't touch anything. As I expected it was slippery, we have to try and push our best.
