Information

Date and time SS Information
11. 06. 2017 17:30 CET 19 retired (3 - Evans Elfyn / Barritt Daniel): retired after SS 19
11. 06. 2017 14:22 CET 19 Stage is cancelled, other crews will obtain notional time.
11. 06. 2017 14:21 CET 19 Stage is stopped because st.no. 71 is blocking the road.
11. 06. 2017 14:21 CET 19 (71 - Brazzoli Enrico / Ghietti Enrico): blocked the stage
11. 06. 2017 13:51 CET 19 flash info (38 - Katsuta Takamoto / Salminen Marko): I'm so happy we finished this tough rally. I want to say thank you so much to the team and my co-driver Marko. With this experience next time I will be much faster.
11. 06. 2017 13:51 CET 19 flash info (32 - Veiby Ole Christian / Skjærmoen Stig Rune): I'm happy with this, it was a really strong drive. We managed the whole rally with no problems and that was always our plan. I feel I have made progress, improving all weekend.
11. 06. 2017 13:51 CET 19 flash info (81 - Camilli Eric / Veillas Benjamin): I pushed hard and it's a very good result for us. It's the first time that we finish in front of the Skodas so I'm happy. I don't care that I didn't score WRC 2 points here. The most important thing is to perform.
11. 06. 2017 13:17 CET 19 flash info (2 - Tänak Ott / Järveoja Martin): What can I say - it feels good! A difficult weekend but the first half of this season has been great. The new car and a strong team-mate is making me push hard. I hope it's the first of many wins. It's coming together. It looks like we have a strong team all around and in the car too.
11. 06. 2017 13:09 CET 19 flash info (10 - Latvala Jari-Matti / Anttila Miikka): I lost it in the hairpin! It's always wrong in the hairpin because the car doesn't turn there. I'm really disappointed.
11. 06. 2017 13:04 CET 19 flash info (5 - Neuville Thierry / Gilsoul Nicolas): We gave it everything here but the road was not perfect for our car, I couldn't raise the ride height. Overall it's a positive rally. It was unlucky we got a small brake issue with the car and perhaps lost the win this weekend. An amazing performance in the car and from the team.
11. 06. 2017 12:59 CET 19 flash info (12 - Lappi Esapekka / Ferm Janne): There are still more fast drivers to come, we will see, but I gave everything - absolutely. I learned a lot in Portugal and I learned more here. It's getting better step-by-step.
11. 06. 2017 12:59 CET 19 flash info (11 - Hänninen Juho / Lindström Kaj): It's a shame to lose the place but we have to be happy to be here. That's a positive.
11. 06. 2017 12:54 CET 19 flash info (1 - Ogier Sébastien / Ingrassia Julien): Not the best weekend for the championship but what can we do? I tried here but there are lots of big rocks - it's a bit of a lottery. If Ott wins he deserves it - it would be great for the team.
11. 06. 2017 12:51 CET 19 flash info (14 - Østberg Mads / Fløene Ola): An earlier repair broke a few metres into the stage. I have some ideas of what to do. If I can't fix it I'll drive sideways to service.
11. 06. 2017 12:48 CET 19 flash info (9 - Mikkelsen Andreas / Jæger Anders): We tried to go at good speed all morning so our tyres were probably worn. Ok, we managed to do what we came here to do. We got a lot of mileage and gathered a lot of data to work with. For now it's just one event for me in the Citroen. Let's see what the future brings.
11. 06. 2017 12:42 CET 19 (14 - Østberg Mads / Fløene Ola): broken rear right wheel
11. 06. 2017 12:42 CET 19 flash info (6 - Sordo Dani / Martí Marc): Not so bad. A lot of ruts. It was fun.
11. 06. 2017 12:36 CET 19 flash info (20 - Al Rajhi Yazeed / Orr Michael): We enjoyed and we win the category - that's most important.
11. 06. 2017 12:32 CET 19 flash info (8 - Breen Craig / Martin Scott): Tough going. Incredibly soft and sandy. It's a bucket and shovel you need in here, not a rally car. It's been a difficult weekend. We struggled for pace in some places and were good in others. We need to work on consistency.
11. 06. 2017 12:28 CET 19 flash info (3 - Evans Elfyn / Barritt Daniel): I fixed the throttle problem so there were no concerns there. We tried a bit for sure. It's difficult to know how the stage will evolve for the cars behind. Overall a tough weekend. We have to go home and reset.
11. 06. 2017 12:19 CET 19 Running order: 1. Evans, 2. Breen, 3. Al Rajhi, 4. Sordo, 5. Mikkelsen, 6. Østberg, 7. Ogier, 8. Hänninen, 9. Lappi. 10. Neuville. 11. Latvala, 12. Tänak
11. 06. 2017 11:49 CET 18 Stage is cancelled, other crews will use alternate route.
11. 06. 2017 11:33 CET 18 Stage is stopped because of crash st.no. 4.
11. 06. 2017 11:33 CET 18 flash info (2 - Tänak Ott / Järveoja Martin): No problem. The dust is ok now, I can manage.
11. 06. 2017 11:32 CET 18 (4 - Paddon Hayden / Marshall Sebastian): Paddon went off on a right hander. The car went onto two wheels and crashed heavily. Hayden and co-driver Seb are ok.
11. 06. 2017 11:28 CET 18 flash info (10 - Latvala Jari-Matti / Anttila Miikka): Now I drive with a good rhythm and try to save my tyres for the Power Stage.
11. 06. 2017 11:28 CET 18 retired (4 - Paddon Hayden / Marshall Sebastian): accident in SS 18
11. 06. 2017 11:28 CET 18 flash info (5 - Neuville Thierry / Gilsoul Nicolas): We will see.
11. 06. 2017 11:27 CET 18 flash info (12 - Lappi Esapekka / Ferm Janne): A clean run. Saving my tyres on the braking. Yep, it's good.
11. 06. 2017 11:27 CET 18 flash info (11 - Hänninen Juho / Lindström Kaj): We will see. We need to go.
11. 06. 2017 11:27 CET 18 flash info (1 - Ogier Sébastien / Ingrassia Julien): We push a bit more because we know Juho may have a problem.
11. 06. 2017 11:26 CET 18 flash info (14 - Østberg Mads / Fløene Ola): I'm trying to save the car. I have had a gearbox problem all day, but it's ok. I will use the gearbox properly on the final stage.
11. 06. 2017 11:26 CET 18 flash info (9 - Mikkelsen Andreas / Jæger Anders): I'm trying to explore more and find more speed as the feeling improves. I feel more comfortable here, the character of this stage makes it nice to explore on. The Power Stage is very different.
11. 06. 2017 11:26 CET 18 flash info (6 - Sordo Dani / Martí Marc): I was in a good place at the beginning of the rally, even shakedown, but after the problems this rally has been more difficult. Opening the roads has cost me and I can do nothing. We will try and take points on the Power Stage and look forward to Poland. My tyres feel ok.
11. 06. 2017 11:24 CET 17 retired (37 - Arai Hiroki / MacNeall Glenn): retired in SS 17
11. 06. 2017 09:59 CET 17 flash info (21 - Prokop Martin / Tománek Jan): We lost the rear diff on the previous stage, so front-wheel drive only. This is not our rally. Now we will try to go to the finish.
11. 06. 2017 09:58 CET 17 flash info (3 - Evans Elfyn / Barritt Daniel): The throttle was sticking on at the start. It's like the pedal is getting jammed somewhere. I need to go and have a look.
11. 06. 2017 09:43 CET 17 flash info (4 - Paddon Hayden / Marshall Sebastian): A nice Sunday drive. We're enjoying today and looking forward to Poland.
11. 06. 2017 09:42 CET 17 flash info (2 - Tänak Ott / Järveoja Martin): You can see the problem - I have no visibility.Car is full of dust. I will try and fix it now.
11. 06. 2017 09:42 CET 17 flash info (10 - Latvala Jari-Matti / Anttila Miikka): I stalled. Then I pushed the stop button instead of the start button. It cost me about five seconds. Ok, that's the way it is. I gave it my best. I can relax now.
11. 06. 2017 09:41 CET 17 (10 - Latvala Jari-Matti / Anttila Miikka): stalled engine in one corner
11. 06. 2017 09:41 CET 17 flash info (5 - Neuville Thierry / Gilsoul Nicolas): The road is getting some very deep ruts. We'll have to raise the ride height. I have two fresh tyres for the Power Stage.
11. 06. 2017 09:41 CET 17 flash info (12 - Lappi Esapekka / Ferm Janne): We have found the right set up now and the car is really easy to handle. I struggled here last year in an R5 car, especially on the second pass.
11. 06. 2017 09:40 CET 17 flash info (11 - Hänninen Juho / Lindström Kaj): I'm beginning to feel the same steering problem we had yesterday. Some big ruts are coming here.
11. 06. 2017 09:40 CET 17 flash info (1 - Ogier Sébastien / Ingrassia Julien): For sure there is not to much else to hope for us. I think Dani is pushing. This stage was very loose.
11. 06. 2017 09:38 CET 17 flash info (9 - Mikkelsen Andreas / Jæger Anders): It is very specific stage, with lot of slow corners.
11. 06. 2017 11:22 CET 16 retired (89 - Pusceddu Maurizio / Pittalis Luigi): retired before SS 16
11. 06. 2017 11:19 CET 16 retired (86 - Marrone Francesco / Fresu Francesco): retired in SS 16
11. 06. 2017 09:58 CET 16 (21 - Prokop Martin / Tománek Jan): problems with differential
11. 06. 2017 09:38 CET 16 (2 - Tänak Ott / Järveoja Martin): missed junction
11. 06. 2017 09:12 CET 16 flash info (10 - Latvala Jari-Matti / Anttila Miikka): A good stage, clean, I kept it on the line.
11. 06. 2017 09:03 CET 16 flash info (12 - Lappi Esapekka / Ferm Janne): It was ok, very slow.
11. 06. 2017 09:00 CET 16 flash info (11 - Hänninen Juho / Lindström Kaj): No big fight today, I am content in fifth place.
11. 06. 2017 08:55 CET 16 flash info (1 - Ogier Sébastien / Ingrassia Julien): It was ok. For us today is just about driving through, waiting for a final push on the Power Stage.
11. 06. 2017 08:54 CET 16 flash info (9 - Mikkelsen Andreas / Jæger Anders): It's been getting better and better in the car since yesterday afternoon. I'd say this was a good stage. Happy with that.
11. 06. 2017 08:54 CET 16 flash info (6 - Sordo Dani / Martí Marc): Stage is very slippery. I am taking no risks, looking after tyres before a points push on the Power Stage.
10. 06. 2017 18:26 CET 15 flash info (36 - Loubet Pierre-Louis / Landais Vincent): I have done the whole loop with no brakes at the rear.
10. 06. 2017 18:18 CET 15 flash info (35 - Rossel Yohan / Fulcrand Benoît): In the stages the car feels good, but the times are not. I'm here to build experience.
10. 06. 2017 18:17 CET 15 flash info (38 - Katsuta Takamoto / Salminen Marko): Some engine trouble this morning then a puncture near the end of stage 12. Otherwise quite a good day.
10. 06. 2017 18:17 CET 15 flash info (32 - Veiby Ole Christian / Skjærmoen Stig Rune): Very happy. I have driven according to the plan.
10. 06. 2017 18:17 CET 15 flash info (34 - Kopecký Jan / Dresler Pavel): A great day for us. We have changed the setup a bit. I have pushed more, but still on the safe side.
10. 06. 2017 18:04 CET 15 (81 - Camilli Eric / Veillas Benjamin): catched Raoux in the dust
10. 06. 2017 18:03 CET 15 flash info (22 - Raoux Jean-Michel / Magat Laurent): I spun in a straight road. It cost me a lot of time. It was difficult to turn the car around.
10. 06. 2017 18:03 CET 15 flash info (20 - Al Rajhi Yazeed / Orr Michael): We did the day well and we enjoyed - that's the most important thing.
10. 06. 2017 17:54 CET 15 flash info (21 - Prokop Martin / Tománek Jan): The last two stages we have finished with punctures - they have given me a lot of trouble today. I think I could get a puncture just driving on sand. Ok, not lucky in this point, but otherwise the driving has been nice today.
10. 06. 2017 17:53 CET 15 flash info (3 - Evans Elfyn / Barritt Daniel): This was an important rally for Dmack to gather tyre info on these rough stages.
10. 06. 2017 17:45 CET 15 flash info (8 - Breen Craig / Martin Scott): I spun and stalled, had to reverse. A lot of hard work.
10. 06. 2017 17:43 CET 15 flash info (5 - Neuville Thierry / Gilsoul Nicolas): The tyres are completely gone. Very slippery. I got a huge surprise on the first corner. Tomorrow we will try for the Power Stage points. It's a shame because without our brake problems we would be leading the rally.
10. 06. 2017 17:37 CET 15 flash info (2 - Tänak Ott / Järveoja Martin): This afternoon was surprisingly good. It has been good to drive up to now with a safe margin. Now we can push more. Tomorrow I don't see any reason why Latvala should be any quicker.
10. 06. 2017 17:35 CET 15 flash info (10 - Latvala Jari-Matti / Anttila Miikka): We are in a good position but the tyres are finished and my brakes are too hot so it was difficult at the end here. It's still a fight with Tanak so let's see what happens later with our stage time on SS 12.
10. 06. 2017 17:27 CET 15 flash info (14 - Østberg Mads / Fløene Ola): We have a problem with the front suspension arm or something. The car is pulling to one direction all the time under braking. I had to slow the car during the stage because it was dangerous.
10. 06. 2017 17:25 CET 15 flash info (11 - Hänninen Juho / Lindström Kaj): I spun near the start, then I lost the power steering towards the end. We need to go and have a look.
10. 06. 2017 17:19 CET 15 flash info (1 - Ogier Sébastien / Ingrassia Julien): We came across the rear bumper of Lappi's car in the middle of the road. I had to slow. It's been a hard weekend so far.
10. 06. 2017 17:18 CET 15 flash info (12 - Lappi Esapekka / Ferm Janne): I gave it a push - as much as I could - until I lost my brakes. It's more about clean driving. I feel we are making progress all the time more or less. It's all good experience.
10. 06. 2017 17:17 CET 15 flash info (9 - Mikkelsen Andreas / Jæger Anders): The front differential is broken. It's like a rear-wheel drive car - it feels very nervous. That aside, we've made some positive steps today.
10. 06. 2017 17:08 CET 15 flash info (6 - Sordo Dani / Martí Marc): The feeling is quite slippery - even on the second pass. The car feels nice to drive though. I will try to do my job and collect some points. A difficult weekend, the speed was there but we have had some problems.
10. 06. 2017 17:05 CET 14 flash info (8 - Breen Craig / Martin Scott): It's the same. When we have the correct roads the car is awesome but the window is so fine.
10. 06. 2017 16:59 CET 14 flash info (5 - Neuville Thierry / Gilsoul Nicolas): A good stage for me. I enjoy. I used my shakedown tyres on this loop to save some new ones for the Power Stage tomorrow.
10. 06. 2017 16:55 CET 14 flash info (2 - Tänak Ott / Järveoja Martin): I tried to have a clean run. It's so tough to save your tyres when it's rough like this. We try to do the same in Monte Lerno.
10. 06. 2017 16:52 CET 14 flash info (10 - Latvala Jari-Matti / Anttila Miikka): It was good but I have to be careful with my tyres. It's hard on them. I hope they are okay for Monte Lerno. Ott is running very, very fast. He wants the victory, but let's see - you have to finish the rally first."
10. 06. 2017 16:43 CET 14 flash info (11 - Hänninen Juho / Lindström Kaj): A big surprise that it's still so slippery. Otherwise no problem.
10. 06. 2017 16:40 CET 14 flash info (1 - Ogier Sébastien / Ingrassia Julien): This stage was ok for us, I tried to push. The feeling was not too bad.
10. 06. 2017 16:36 CET 14 flash info (12 - Lappi Esapekka / Ferm Janne): Not good, the brakes are too hot. I tried to be gentle for the tyres but it's still too much for the brakes. We'll just try and survive to the finish.
10. 06. 2017 16:36 CET 14 flash info (9 - Mikkelsen Andreas / Jæger Anders): A bit strange compared to the last stage. Not so nice. We made some minor changes but they have taken us a step backwards again. Maybe fitting new tyres at the rear has upset the balance.
10. 06. 2017 16:36 CET 14 flash info (6 - Sordo Dani / Martí Marc): A nice one but a bit slippery. I punctured in the stage before and we don't have another spare tyre, so no risks. It will be hard to do this loop on four tyres but I will try.
10. 06. 2017 18:15 CET 13 retired (87 - Arengi Bentivoglio Fabrizio / Salis Fabio): retired after SS 13
10. 06. 2017 16:09 CET 13 retired (4 - Paddon Hayden / Marshall Sebastian): damaged suspension after SS 13
10. 06. 2017 15:57 CET 13 flash info (4 - Paddon Hayden / Marshall Sebastian): Amateur mistake. An absolutely stupid mistake. Dick head! I turned in too early and clipped a bank. It's broken a drive shaft I think. I've let everybody down. It's ridiculous.
10. 06. 2017 15:57 CET 13 flash info (5 - Neuville Thierry / Gilsoul Nicolas): It was going well. The mechanics have done a good job. We would have been in the lead otherwise.
10. 06. 2017 15:57 CET 13 flash info (2 - Tänak Ott / Järveoja Martin): It feels much better. I have only one spare, which is a bit of a gamble but the feeling is much better. I tried to take care of my tyres.
10. 06. 2017 15:53 CET 13 (4 - Paddon Hayden / Marshall Sebastian): damaged right rear wheel, fire
10. 06. 2017 15:46 CET 13 flash info (10 - Latvala Jari-Matti / Anttila Miikka): We have improved the car a lot. But I'm a little bit here and there. I have to keep up the concentration - it's very easy to make a mistake.
10. 06. 2017 15:46 CET 13 flash info (14 - Østberg Mads / Fløene Ola): Much better. We made some changes to the car in service - suspension, springs, ride height - and it is giving me much more confidence.
10. 06. 2017 15:46 CET 13 flash info (11 - Hänninen Juho / Lindström Kaj): These will be two difficult stages for the tyres so we must manage them.
10. 06. 2017 15:45 CET 13 flash info (1 - Ogier Sébastien / Ingrassia Julien): There's something wrong in the car - massive understeer. Beginning of stage was ok, towars the end it was worse. I must check it.
10. 06. 2017 15:29 CET 13 flash info (12 - Lappi Esapekka / Ferm Janne): We've had a couple of good stages. Maybe this was a wrong call with my tyres. Let's see.
10. 06. 2017 15:28 CET 13 flash info (9 - Mikkelsen Andreas / Jæger Anders): We did some good steps in service. Small steps in different areas. It's getting better and better but still I found it difficult in the Mickey Mouse section here.
10. 06. 2017 15:21 CET 13 flash info (6 - Sordo Dani / Martí Marc): I punctured after 1km - I don't know how.
10. 06. 2017 15:16 CET 13 (6 - Sordo Dani / Martí Marc): puncture
10. 06. 2017 15:00 CET 13 WRC cars will start with 4 minute intervals.
10. 06. 2017 15:09 CET 12 retired (69 - Niinemäe Miko-Ove / Valter Martin): health problems after SS 12
10. 06. 2017 12:30 CET 12 retired (93 - Someda Pietro / Campesan Giorgio): retired in SS 12
10. 06. 2017 12:27 CET 12 retired (95 - Martinez Giovanni / Pirisinu Giuseppe): retired in SS 12
10. 06. 2017 12:27 CET 12 retired (37 - Arai Hiroki / MacNeall Glenn): accident in SS 12
10. 06. 2017 10:40 CET 12 flash info (32 - Veiby Ole Christian / Skjærmoen Stig Rune): For sure I caught a lot of dust near the end behind Raoux. I lost some time there. Otherwise it's been a good day, improving all the time.
10. 06. 2017 10:40 CET 12 flash info (22 - Raoux Jean-Michel / Magat Laurent): I had a puncture - the rear left. It was difficult to change the wheel.
10. 06. 2017 10:40 CET 12 (22 - Raoux Jean-Michel / Magat Laurent): puncture
10. 06. 2017 10:35 CET 12 flash info (34 - Kopecký Jan / Dresler Pavel): Twelve kilometres before the finish I was sure I had a puncture at the rear. I slowed right down and then realised I didn't.
10. 06. 2017 10:18 CET 12 flash info (8 - Breen Craig / Martin Scott): What we felt on the previous stage was just the start of the problem. The car was doing all sorts of things in there. Something transmission related I think. I drove this one at more or less road speed.
10. 06. 2017 10:12 CET 12 flash info (4 - Paddon Hayden / Marshall Sebastian): The first half felt really good. Later on our tyre choice was maybe too aggressive. The car nearly put us in the trees a couple of times. We had to take it back a notch.
10. 06. 2017 10:10 CET 12 flash info (5 - Neuville Thierry / Gilsoul Nicolas): We have had no brakes from the start. I lost them 200 metres from the end of the previous stage. I don't know what to do.
10. 06. 2017 10:09 CET 12 flash info (2 - Tänak Ott / Järveoja Martin): Generally no dramas but we are losing the brakes and I don't know why. I'm sorry to hear about Neuville. Ok, this is Sardinia, there is always stuff happening all around.
10. 06. 2017 10:09 CET 12 (5 - Neuville Thierry / Gilsoul Nicolas): going slowly
10. 06. 2017 10:05 CET 12 flash info (10 - Latvala Jari-Matti / Anttila Miikka): If I don't get the time back here, when I am in dust behind Ostberg and fighting so hard, I will stop this sport.
10. 06. 2017 10:02 CET 12 flash info (14 - Østberg Mads / Fløene Ola): We had a puncture on the front very early. We had to stop and change it. I have no idea.
10. 06. 2017 09:57 CET 12 (14 - Østberg Mads / Fløene Ola): puncture
10. 06. 2017 09:57 CET 12 flash info (11 - Hänninen Juho / Lindström Kaj): Some dust in the last part of the stage but otherwise no issue.
10. 06. 2017 09:55 CET 12 flash info (1 - Ogier Sébastien / Ingrassia Julien): A front-left puncture, right at the start. We tried to carry on but there was no chance. I had a heavy impact on the previous stage but on this stage I didn't feel I touched anything.
10. 06. 2017 09:55 CET 12 flash info (12 - Lappi Esapekka / Ferm Janne): Dust from Mikkelsen distracted me. Frustrating, but it's part of the game. It's like this.
10. 06. 2017 09:55 CET 12 (1 - Ogier Sébastien / Ingrassia Julien): puncture
10. 06. 2017 09:54 CET 12 flash info (9 - Mikkelsen Andreas / Jæger Anders): Stopped to change a puncture on the rear-right. I felt it after 5km. Strange because I didn't hit anything.
10. 06. 2017 09:54 CET 12 flash info (6 - Sordo Dani / Martí Marc): I was a bit angry after the previous stage, now it is working well. The car is easy to drive here.
10. 06. 2017 09:54 CET 12 (9 - Mikkelsen Andreas / Jæger Anders): puncture
10. 06. 2017 09:39 CET 12 (9 - Mikkelsen Andreas / Jæger Anders): stopped in stage, continue
10. 06. 2017 10:22 CET 11 (21 - Prokop Martin / Tománek Jan): puncture

10. 06. 2017 09:38 CET 11 (21 - Prokop Martin / Tománek Jan): stopped in stage, continue
10. 06. 2017 09:36 CET 11 flash info (8 - Breen Craig / Martin Scott): Diabolical. Absolutely diabolical. We stalled in one hairpin. Sometimes we have a very good car, sometimes not so much.
10. 06. 2017 09:36 CET 11 flash info (4 - Paddon Hayden / Marshall Sebastian): I struggled in this one. We swapped the tyres around and were shocked by the balance of the car. At the moment there's no pressure. There's a long way to go. Ok, Thierry did a good time in there - it's game on.
10. 06. 2017 09:29 CET 11 flash info (5 - Neuville Thierry / Gilsoul Nicolas): A good run for me but the car felt soft and was moving about a lot.
10. 06. 2017 09:29 CET 11 flash info (2 - Tänak Ott / Järveoja Martin): Really slippery in places, very low grip, but yeah, it seems to be okay - we'll take it. Everything is about the road cleaning in Sardinia.
10. 06. 2017 09:29 CET 11 flash info (10 - Latvala Jari-Matti / Anttila Miikka): I wasn't preserving my tyres in here, not holding back at all. The gaps are too narrow - there's no chance to be playing a bit with the speed. Tanak is driving amazingly fast but I have to say the road is cleaning a bit.
10. 06. 2017 09:22 CET 11 flash info (14 - Østberg Mads / Fløene Ola): Not so bad, difficult to find the right rhythm but I tried my best.
10. 06. 2017 09:21 CET 11 flash info (11 - Hänninen Juho / Lindström Kaj): Really nice, but not easy to keep the rhythm - some places lots of grip, others not so much.
10. 06. 2017 09:15 CET 11 flash info (1 - Ogier Sébastien / Ingrassia Julien): Happy with my drive, but I really struggle with traction. Maybe we have to try some different settings this afternoon.
10. 06. 2017 09:12 CET 11 flash info (12 - Lappi Esapekka / Ferm Janne): Not too good to be honest. It's so slippery and I'm not feeling confident. I don't want to do anything silly. Better to be on the safe side that try to be fast.
10. 06. 2017 09:10 CET 11 flash info (9 - Mikkelsen Andreas / Jæger Anders): We made some changes before the stage but they have gone in a negative direction, so I need to try something else. It will get better and better. When I start to feel comfortable for sure the pace will be there, no problem.
10. 06. 2017 09:08 CET 11 flash info (6 - Sordo Dani / Martí Marc): A bad stage because the paddleshift is not working. The upshifts are okay but the downshift doesn't work. I told my engineers about this yesterday. Now it's not working again. Very distracting.
10. 06. 2017 08:47 CET 11 Start was delayed for 3 minutes.
10. 06. 2017 08:46 CET 11 Since SS 11 until the end of the day, all WRC cars will start with 3 minutes gaps.

10. 06. 2017 08:27 CET 10 flash info (4 - Paddon Hayden / Marshall Sebastian): Ok, it's very dusty, but it's the same for everybody. You have to use it as an opportunity to get an advantage. It feels uncomfortable but I just pushed on. I enjoyed it actually. Sometimes that's how this sport it.
10. 06. 2017 08:26 CET 10 flash info (5 - Neuville Thierry / Gilsoul Nicolas): You could see that this was going to happen. At the start we could see maybe 80 metres. It's dangerous. That's the only thing you can say.
10. 06. 2017 08:26 CET 10 flash info (2 - Tänak Ott / Järveoja Martin): It's not clear why the organisers gave three-minute intervals yesterday and two-minute intervals today.
10. 06. 2017 08:25 CET 10 flash info (10 - Latvala Jari-Matti / Anttila Miikka): It started well. The dust made things difficult but overall I'm happy with how it went. Not easy facing a wall of dust - you have to trust your pace notes completely.
10. 06. 2017 08:25 CET 10 flash info (14 - Østberg Mads / Fløene Ola): Tricky in here with the dust and some big rocks in the road. No way to avoid all of them, I had to slow down many times.
10. 06. 2017 08:24 CET 10 flash info (11 - Hänninen Juho / Lindström Kaj): I dont understand two minute gaps. The organisers should wake up.
10. 06. 2017 08:22 CET 10 With not respecting start list, first 4 crews (Sordo, Mikkelsen, Lappi, Ogier) started with 3 minutes gaps (mainle because penalty of Mikkelsen), rest with 2 minutes gaps.
10. 06. 2017 08:22 CET 10 flash info (1 - Ogier Sébastien / Ingrassia Julien): A difficult start. It's hard to see in the dust. Hopefully we will be able to enjoy the next one.
10. 06. 2017 08:22 CET 10 flash info (12 - Lappi Esapekka / Ferm Janne): We are still learning all the time so it's okay to be early on the road. A huge amount of dust - in the beginning especially you can't see anything. It's the same for everybody - except the first car.
10. 06. 2017 08:22 CET 10 flash info (9 - Mikkelsen Andreas / Jæger Anders): Very, very dusty in there. In many places I almost had to stop completely.
10. 06. 2017 08:21 CET 10 flash info (6 - Sordo Dani / Martí Marc): I tried to enjoy the stage, it's really fast. Obviously a little bit more difficult for me. I'm just trying to enjoy it.
09. 06. 2017 19:57 CET 9 flash info (38 - Katsuta Takamoto / Salminen Marko): Today was a tough day, the stages were very rough but we had no punctures and no problems, so we've had a good run. I need to be careful in the next couple of days - then maybe a good result.
09. 06. 2017 19:47 CET 9 flash info (34 - Kopecký Jan / Dresler Pavel): The day was really great for us. Ok, I would like to battle with Camilli who is not registered for points here, but I must think about my championship.
09. 06. 2017 19:47 CET 9 flash info (11 - Hänninen Juho / Lindström Kaj): We hit a bank.
09. 06. 2017 19:46 CET 9 (11 - Hänninen Juho / Lindström Kaj): Juho and co-driver Kaj Lindstrom have parked their Yaris close to the stage end and are making repairs. They have tried to repair a cracked cooling system pipe and have topped up the system using their drinking water.
09. 06. 2017 19:30 CET 9 flash info (12 - Lappi Esapekka / Ferm Janne): The afternoon was good. The times are really good considering we have a stuck damper. Stage wins I didn't expect. Okay, it seems we can learn pretty quickly. But at this level it's not easy to fine tune and find more improvements.
09. 06. 2017 19:25 CET 9 flash info (14 - Østberg Mads / Fløene Ola): A tricky afternoon. I tried to push back but it didn't work out. Of course it was a gamble but sometimes you need to do that. The soft tyres did work but they didn't give me the support. I just wore the tyres out basically.
09. 06. 2017 19:24 CET 9 flash info (9 - Mikkelsen Andreas / Jæger Anders): A tough day in the new car but it has been great to get the mileage. I know which way to go forward. A lot of mistakes in the hairpins. Ok, we're learning."
09. 06. 2017 19:23 CET 9 (11 - Hänninen Juho / Lindström Kaj): Car reaches the finish with frontal damage and a crumpled bonnet. There is steam and water spitting from a pipe in the cooling system. He leaves the finish control without explaining what happened.
09. 06. 2017 19:23 CET 9 flash info (6 - Sordo Dani / Martí Marc): I enjoyed that, and I enjoyed the rally, unfortunately the problem in the morning cost me a lot of time.
09. 06. 2017 19:23 CET 9 (11 - Hänninen Juho / Lindström Kaj): was out of road
09. 06. 2017 19:08 CET 9 flash info (4 - Paddon Hayden / Marshall Sebastian): It's been a very difficult afternoon. With the damper problem the car hasn't right. The priority today was getting a good road position for tomorrow. And that's mission accomplished. I love tomorrow's stages - they suit me and they suit the car. It would be rude if we didn't give it a try.
09. 06. 2017 19:06 CET 9 flash info (2 - Tänak Ott / Järveoja Martin): This was the only place where we were going to gain from two spares, so I tried to do my best. This afternoon has been really difficult, not a good feeling. Let's see what tomorrow brings.
09. 06. 2017 19:03 CET 9 flash info (10 - Latvala Jari-Matti / Anttila Miikka): A reasonably good time. After an up and down morning I'm happy with the afternoon. We are well in the fight for Saturday.
09. 06. 2017 19:03 CET 9 flash info (5 - Neuville Thierry / Gilsoul Nicolas): I have no tyres left - from the beginning. We have a slow puncture on the front-left too. This time won't be the fastest.
09. 06. 2017 19:02 CET 9 flash info (1 - Ogier Sébastien / Ingrassia Julien): Tomorrow won't be much better because there won't be many cars in front of me. That's the WRC.
09. 06. 2017 15:38 CET 9 Start of stage will be delayed for 10 minutes.
09. 06. 2017 18:50 CET 8 retired (36 - Loubet Pierre-Louis / Landais Vincent): accident in SS 8
09. 06. 2017 18:39 CET 8 flash info (34 - Kopecký Jan / Dresler Pavel): The gap is fine. We are happy to be leading. Ok, some of the top WRC 2 drivers are not here but that is how it is. I'm happy. Still a long rally to go.
09. 06. 2017 18:38 CET 8 flash info (32 - Veiby Ole Christian / Skjærmoen Stig Rune): I thought I had a front-left puncture. Perhaps it is just worn. I slowed a little towards the end. Otherwise everything is good. It's all going to plan.
09. 06. 2017 18:25 CET 8 flash info (12 - Lappi Esapekka / Ferm Janne): My front-left damper broke on the last stage, the tube inside is stuck, so I have to be careful now.
09. 06. 2017 18:23 CET 8 flash info (14 - Østberg Mads / Fløene Ola): I'm trying but I struggle with the balance of the car. I cannot keep the rears in the line. My tyre strategy hasn't worked out. I'm paying the price now.
09. 06. 2017 18:20 CET 8 flash info (9 - Mikkelsen Andreas / Jæger Anders): After last year, we knew this one would be rough. In the narrow I'm struggling to get the feeling with the car. I stalled again in here - I'm not very good at using the clutch.
09. 06. 2017 18:17 CET 8 flash info (11 - Hänninen Juho / Lindström Kaj): Nothing special. I backed off in the really rough sections - I was a bit nervous there.
09. 06. 2017 18:13 CET 8 flash info (6 - Sordo Dani / Martí Marc): When the car is working everything is perfect. Changing the turbo in service was difficult - there's a lot to do.
09. 06. 2017 18:06 CET 8 flash info (4 - Paddon Hayden / Marshall Sebastian): The damper problem didn't affect me much here, I'm just trying to look after the tyres. The rally won't be won or lost today. I'm going to manage the situation and get the car back to service.
09. 06. 2017 18:04 CET 8 flash info (2 - Tänak Ott / Järveoja Martin): A half-spin near the end. We're struggling with the car a bit.
09. 06. 2017 18:04 CET 8 flash info (10 - Latvala Jari-Matti / Anttila Miikka): I was troubled by the Rally Italy number plate on the bonnet flapping loose and the sun low in the sky.
09. 06. 2017 17:57 CET 8 flash info (5 - Neuville Thierry / Gilsoul Nicolas): That's just what I said to my co-driver, it was terrible. Really, really slippery. I tried to be be smooth but it was really hard.
09. 06. 2017 17:54 CET 8 flash info (1 - Ogier Sébastien / Ingrassia Julien): Terrible. A nightmare. I have no grip. Quite boring.
09. 06. 2017 15:38 CET 8 Start of stage will be delayed for 10 minutes.

09. 06. 2017 17:08 CET 7 flash info (12 - Lappi Esapekka / Ferm Janne): The setup now is perfect. This morning we were trying some development dampers. We changed the set up in service and it's good.
09. 06. 2017 16:47 CET 7 flash info (14 - Østberg Mads / Fløene Ola): I'm not enjoying this, it's not going so well. Our mixed tyre choice was wrong. The softs were not working. I struggled.
09. 06. 2017 16:46 CET 7 flash info (6 - Sordo Dani / Martí Marc): Something on the turbo wasn't fixed very well in the service park. The intercooler is not working, so no power. I tried to fix it before the stage. I will try again to fix it now.
09. 06. 2017 16:46 CET 7 flash info (9 - Mikkelsen Andreas / Jæger Anders): In the last stage I stalled three times and here I stalled twice. I'm really struggling in the hairpins. Perhaps I need to use the clutch more, I don't know.
09. 06. 2017 16:40 CET 7 flash info (11 - Hänninen Juho / Lindström Kaj): A bit rougher than the first one and I'm not confident in the ruts. I'm happy with this time.
09. 06. 2017 16:31 CET 7 flash info (4 - Paddon Hayden / Marshall Sebastian): The first stage felt quite nice, we looked after the tyres. This one was really difficult on the hard tyres. The balance didn't feel good, I think we've broken the front-left damper.
09. 06. 2017 16:28 CET 7 flash info (2 - Tänak Ott / Järveoja Martin): We are carrying two extra spares. Not so easy to drive with the extra weight.
09. 06. 2017 16:28 CET 7 flash info (10 - Latvala Jari-Matti / Anttila Miikka): Nothing to worry about. The stage was tricky. There is grip in the line but of it it's very slippery.
09. 06. 2017 16:27 CET 7 (10 - Latvala Jari-Matti / Anttila Miikka): The dashboard is lit up with warning lights - and a message reads 'rear diff high'.
09. 06. 2017 16:22 CET 7 flash info (5 - Neuville Thierry / Gilsoul Nicolas): I don't know where it happened but I pushed very hard.
09. 06. 2017 16:22 CET 7 flash info (5 - Neuville Thierry / Gilsoul Nicolas): Double tyre trauma. His rear-left tyre is missing a huge chunk of rubber from the sidewall and the rear-right is punctured.
09. 06. 2017 16:19 CET 7 flash info (1 - Ogier Sébastien / Ingrassia Julien): Yeah, tyres are ok. For sure some more wear this afternoon - it's more hot and abrasive. Still some cleaning, but it is improved since this morning.
09. 06. 2017 15:38 CET 7 Start of stage will be delayed for 10 minutes.

09. 06. 2017 12:37 CET 5 retired (7 - Meeke Kris / Nagle Paul): damaged rollcage after SS 5
09. 06. 2017 12:30 CET 5 flash info (7 - Meeke Kris / Nagle Paul): It happened just two or three kilometres into the stage. I was in fourth gear. The road was rough, I touched the right-rear on a bank and it just spat us over onto the roof. Simple as that. Up to that point everything felt good. I was settled, it felt ok, I wasn't trying to do anything silly. But yes, that's the way it is - not good enough. We'll see if we can get it back out. Not good.
09. 06. 2017 11:41 CET 5 flash info (39 - Pieniążek Łukasz / Mazur Przemysław): I'm completely exhausted.
09. 06. 2017 11:40 CET 5 (39 - Pieniążek Łukasz / Mazur Przemysław): problems with powersteering
09. 06. 2017 11:27 CET 5 flash info (34 - Kopecký Jan / Dresler Pavel): We are trying to improve step-by-step. It's working well so far.
09. 06. 2017 11:24 CET 5 flash info (32 - Veiby Ole Christian / Skjærmoen Stig Rune): It's not easy for me to push on these stages yet but I'm happy with my morning loop.
09. 06. 2017 11:14 CET 5 flash info (12 - Lappi Esapekka / Ferm Janne): Tell Tommi that five gears is enough.
09. 06. 2017 11:08 CET 5 (7 - Meeke Kris / Nagle Paul): No comments, but car is damaged after roll
09. 06. 2017 11:06 CET 5 flash info (9 - Mikkelsen Andreas / Jæger Anders): It's getting better and better. I adjust my driving to the car and how to drive it. I have to change my driving style quite a lot.
09. 06. 2017 11:03 CET 5 flash info (11 - Hänninen Juho / Lindström Kaj): I don't know how he saw us behind but he pulled straight over - so thanks to him. The car has been really, really good this morning. Let's see what we can do now for the afternoon.
09. 06. 2017 10:57 CET 5 flash info (4 - Paddon Hayden / Marshall Sebastian): We are driving to a plan. Today is all about driving cleanly. It's very noisy in the car and difficult to concentrate on the pace notes.
09. 06. 2017 10:53 CET 5 (7 - Meeke Kris / Nagle Paul): was out of road
09. 06. 2017 10:50 CET 5 flash info (6 - Sordo Dani / Martí Marc): I don't know - we have a problem with the engine. From the middle of the stage we have no power. Incredible, but that's life. I don't know what the problem is.
09. 06. 2017 10:47 CET 5 (6 - Sordo Dani / Martí Marc): problems with engine
09. 06. 2017 10:47 CET 5 flash info (2 - Tänak Ott / Järveoja Martin): I thought there would be good grip but it's so loose and slippery. A good loop but very difficult.
09. 06. 2017 10:46 CET 5 flash info (10 - Latvala Jari-Matti / Anttila Miikka): I didn't think about my tyres at all in there - I attacked as hard as I could. I wasn't confident in some of the corners near the beginning.
09. 06. 2017 10:46 CET 5 flash info (5 - Neuville Thierry / Gilsoul Nicolas): Apart from one mistake it has been a good loop. I pushed like hell on this one and the stage before. I tried to increase the gap to Seb. I think he made a mistake choosing all-soft tyres.
09. 06. 2017 10:37 CET 5 flash info (1 - Ogier Sébastien / Ingrassia Julien): I pushed as hard as I could but with the grip I had I didn't wear the tyres. It has been a hard loop. I was hoping to lose less time, but there's not much I can do. Maybe on the first stage I was not on the limit but I was on the others.
09. 06. 2017 08:04 CET 5 Start will be delayed for 6 minutes.

09. 06. 2017 10:18 CET 4 retired (21 - Prokop Martin / Tománek Jan): accident in SS 4
09. 06. 2017 10:18 CET 4 flash info (20 - Al Rajhi Yazeed / Orr Michael): I saw Prokop - he's off the road. I saw the 'ok' board. Very slippery in the last section here.
09. 06. 2017 10:13 CET 4 (21 - Prokop Martin / Tománek Jan): stopped in stage
09. 06. 2017 10:13 CET 4 flash info (12 - Lappi Esapekka / Ferm Janne): This is the worst rally to miss it. It's so slow, not so easy. One more stage until we can get it fixed. I just have to keep it on the road. I'm pretty gutted.
09. 06. 2017 10:08 CET 4 flash info (14 - Østberg Mads / Fløene Ola): Very slippery and sandy, and I couldn't feel any grip. I felt I had a good rhythm but I'm not sure. Not a good time.
09. 06. 2017 10:08 CET 4 flash info (9 - Mikkelsen Andreas / Jæger Anders): I'm trying to build step-by-step. This car is different to drive compared to the Polo. I find it tricky in the narrow sections. It's getting there.
09. 06. 2017 10:07 CET 4 flash info (11 - Hänninen Juho / Lindström Kaj): Ok, slippery near the finish but otherwise nothing special.
09. 06. 2017 09:57 CET 4 flash info (7 - Meeke Kris / Nagle Paul): I drove carefully. Very rough and technical in here. The time is ok. I'm happy with my rhythm.
09. 06. 2017 09:55 CET 4 flash info (4 - Paddon Hayden / Marshall Sebastian): Just trying to drive nice and clean. The exhaust has burned a hole in the car so there are fumes and dust getting inside. That's a bit of a distraction. We will get that fixed with cable ties and duct tape.
09. 06. 2017 09:51 CET 4 flash info (6 - Sordo Dani / Martí Marc): Very slippery everywhere.
09. 06. 2017 09:50 CET 4 flash info (2 - Tänak Ott / Järveoja Martin): Generally a good stage. It's getting hotter now and the tyre were getting soft.
09. 06. 2017 09:50 CET 4 flash info (10 - Latvala Jari-Matti / Anttila Miikka): Not a good time. I don't know what I'm doing wrong but the time is not good. Maybe too careful with the tyres and that was confusing my mind.
09. 06. 2017 09:50 CET 4 retired (3 - Evans Elfyn / Barritt Daniel): accident in SS 4
09. 06. 2017 09:40 CET 4 flash info (5 - Neuville Thierry / Gilsoul Nicolas): A good stage for us. I tried to push very hard - to the maximum. Hopefully it's enough. We try our best against Seb.
09. 06. 2017 09:40 CET 4 flash info (1 - Ogier Sébastien / Ingrassia Julien): The sweeping is as tough and Mexico and Australia.
09. 06. 2017 08:03 CET 4 Start will be delayed for 6 minutes.
09. 06. 2017 11:40 CET 3 (39 - Pieniążek Łukasz / Mazur Przemysław): problems with powersteering

09. 06. 2017 09:40 CET 3 flash info (34 - Kopecký Jan / Dresler Pavel): There is a lot of dust in the forest section. A two-minute gap for us is not enough.
09. 06. 2017 09:40 CET 3 flash info (22 - Raoux Jean-Michel / Magat Laurent): Difficult conditions. I made a mistake on the first one, it's difficult to read the road.
09. 06. 2017 08:48 CET 3 flash info (21 - Prokop Martin / Tománek Jan): Not good. I got a puncture 500 metres into the first stage. Now I'm struggling with the way the car feels on one hard and three soft compound tyres.
09. 06. 2017 08:44 CET 3 flash info (12 - Lappi Esapekka / Ferm Janne): I lost second gear on the first stage - so that's it. I think we can get through but I cannot drive normally. Braking without second gear is not good, I spun once already. I need to keep calm until we can get to service.
09. 06. 2017 08:37 CET 3 flash info (14 - Østberg Mads / Fløene Ola): Encouraging, yes but very difficult to find the rhythm - especially in the dust. In places it feels like we're catching the car ahead.
09. 06. 2017 08:35 CET 3 flash info (9 - Mikkelsen Andreas / Jæger Anders): I'm not concerned. Just getting used to the car and learning it.
09. 06. 2017 08:34 CET 3 retired (8 - Breen Craig / Martin Scott): technical problem after SS 3
09. 06. 2017 08:31 CET 3 flash info (11 - Hänninen Juho / Lindström Kaj): It's not coming easily. Not easy to find the rhythm. The car is really good. I will keep going.
09. 06. 2017 08:30 CET 3 flash info (7 - Meeke Kris / Nagle Paul): The stages are rougher than I anticipated. Hanging dust is a big problem. For sure we have a good road position, but it's not easy to drive when you can't see.
09. 06. 2017 08:27 CET 3 flash info (4 - Paddon Hayden / Marshall Sebastian): Very, very tricky with the dust. Ok, the road position is helping us a bit but the car feels comfortable and the time is good. It's like the old me is back again.
09. 06. 2017 08:24 CET 3 flash info (8 - Breen Craig / Martin Scott): Strong smell of burning oil. I'll find out in a minute.
09. 06. 2017 08:21 CET 3 flash info (3 - Evans Elfyn / Barritt Daniel): No prefect by any means, because of the dust and changeable grip. Ok but not great.
09. 06. 2017 08:15 CET 3 flash info (6 - Sordo Dani / Martí Marc): It's cleaning a bit but not much. Slippery everywhere. A lot of dust in the stage too - so I lost some time there.
09. 06. 2017 08:14 CET 3 flash info (2 - Tänak Ott / Järveoja Martin): There was a bad jump and I took it a bit on the side. Messy stuff in places. In a few places I was not comfortable.
09. 06. 2017 08:11 CET 3 flash info (10 - Latvala Jari-Matti / Anttila Miikka): This stage is the most difficult of the rally but if you are confident here you can make a big difference.
09. 06. 2017 08:10 CET 3 flash info (5 - Neuville Thierry / Gilsoul Nicolas): I have missed junction. I went in a little bit too fast and had to stop and reverse. I lost four or five seconds there. It's hard to stay committed on these stages, it's very easy to make a mistake.
09. 06. 2017 08:05 CET 3 flash info (1 - Ogier Sébastien / Ingrassia Julien): Ok, a little gamble maybe, but the surface is so loose it's ok. No moments, I tried to push a bit more here.
09. 06. 2017 08:02 CET 3 Start will be delayed for 6 minutes.
09. 06. 2017 11:39 CET 2 (39 - Pieniążek Łukasz / Mazur Przemysław): problems with powersteering

08. 06. 2017 19:27 CET 1 flash info (1 - Ogier Sébastien / Ingrassia Julien): I didn't drive perfectly, but it was an ok stage.
08. 06. 2017 19:26 CET 1 flash info (5 - Neuville Thierry / Gilsoul Nicolas): I enjoyed it quite a lot. The car was working well, but the stage was very abrasive and hard on the tyres. A great atmosphere though.
08. 06. 2017 19:26 CET 1 flash info (10 - Latvala Jari-Matti / Anttila Miikka): I'm a bit surprised. I thought I drove well but it appears not. Tomorrow I will try to keep calm and finds a good rhythm.
08. 06. 2017 19:26 CET 1 flash info (2 - Tänak Ott / Järveoja Martin): Not so bad. I tried to push a bit. The wipers got stuck after the watersplash - we were lucky! A nice atmosphere here. Will I push for the win? I always do.
08. 06. 2017 18:55 CET 1 flash info (8 - Breen Craig / Martin Scott): It felt quite ok. I enjoyed it. A big, big day ahead tomorrow.
08. 06. 2017 18:55 CET 1 flash info (4 - Paddon Hayden / Marshall Sebastian): I am sure the guys behind will be quicker. It felt a bit boring the car but the time was ok.
08. 06. 2017 18:50 CET 1 flash info (11 - Hänninen Juho / Lindström Kaj): It was extremely slippery but luckily no big damage from haybale.
08. 06. 2017 18:50 CET 1 flash info (7 - Meeke Kris / Nagle Paul): I feel ok. A few rallies ago we dominated, now after a couple of bad results we have to reset and get a good clean run..
08. 06. 2017 18:50 CET 1 flash info (9 - Mikkelsen Andreas / Jæger Anders): On the first corner I lost the front, a lot of understeer, but otherwise it was ok. The real stuff starts tomorrow. It feels good to be back.
08. 06. 2017 18:42 CET 1 flash info (21 - Prokop Martin / Tománek Jan): Yeah the car is fantastic now.
08. 06. 2017 18:42 CET 1 flash info (12 - Lappi Esapekka / Ferm Janne): Nice to put on a show. It's so slippery out there - lots of sideways! It was pretty ok considering the grip.
08. 06. 2017 18:41 CET 1 flash info (32 - Veiby Ole Christian / Skjærmoen Stig Rune): This will be a challenging weekend for sure. We are here for the experience.
08. 06. 2017 18:41 CET 1 flash info (35 - Rossel Yohan / Fulcrand Benoît): I love this stage - it's great for the fans.
08. 06. 2017 18:20 CET 1 flash info (37 - Arai Hiroki / MacNeall Glenn): We have no electronics, no power to the dash or the wipers.
08. 06. 2017 18:20 CET 1 flash info (39 - Pieniążek Łukasz / Mazur Przemysław): It was really very slippery in there - we are sweeping the road.
08. 06. 2017 18:16 CET 1 flash info (40 - Andolfi Fabio / Fenoli Manuel): I'm hoping for a positive weekend and that the car is ok.
