18 flash info (11 - Neuville Thierry / Gilsoul Nicolas): I can't ask for more today after getting my second win in this classic event and second in a row this season. The car has been great all weekend long. That is due to a big team effort done not only on-site, but also in Germany. The progress of the car is seen, so I am proud of what are reaching. This makes us happy for the coming events, despite knowing that there will be some tough ones when we return to Europe. In the meantime, we all go to Chile which is a place to discover.

29. 04. 2019 03:23 CET
18 flash info (89 - Mikkelsen Andreas / Jæger Anders): This is an absolutely great result for me. It took a long time, but I am so happy now that this feels alsmost like a win.
28. 04. 2019 22:22
29. 04. 2019 03:22 CET
18 flash info (5 - Meeke Kris / Marshall Sebastian): I had the most unexpected puncture 6 km from the finish. What else could I do?
28. 04. 2019 22:22
29. 04. 2019 03:22 CET
18 flash info (1 - Ogier Sébastien / Ingrassia Julien): I did everything I could. I could not match Meeke's speed this weekend, so I kept doing me best until the Power Stage.
28. 04. 2019 22:21
29. 04. 2019 03:21 CET
18 flash info (10 - Latvala Jari-Matti / Anttila Miikka): It's time to go up now. We don't give up.
28. 04. 2019 22:21
29. 04. 2019 03:21 CET
18 flash info (8 - Tänak Ott / Järveoja Martin): It was a difficult rally al the way. Being first on the road didn't really help. Shame of a weekend, I'd say.
28. 04. 2019 22:21
29. 04. 2019 03:21 CET
18 flash info (45 - Heller Pedro / Martí Marc): This is one of the worst things that ever happened to me. A scary moment jwith the finish at nearly at sight distance!. The car stopped with all red alarms and it would go on. Some fans pushed me and it came back to life, so I was lucky to win WRC 2.
28. 04. 2019 22:20
29. 04. 2019 03:20 CET
18 flash info (41 - Guerra Benito / Zapata Jaime): This stage is amazing, for sure. And so it is the number of spectators supporting us! I had gearbox problems, so I couldn't select every shift. The most important things is the points I scored take me to the championship lead.
28. 04. 2019 22:20
29. 04. 2019 03:20 CET
18 flash info (22 - Østberg Mads / Eriksen Torstein): We learnt a lot about the car on gravel here. It was a long and hard event. We take some important dat home and we still have Chile in two more weeks to go for more.
28. 04. 2019 22:20
29. 04. 2019 03:20 CET
17 flash info (5 - Meeke Kris / Marshall Sebastian): I had trouble with the steering, which locked on the stage again. Not a bad run, though. There is more work to do.
28. 04. 2019 22:19
29. 04. 2019 03:19 CET
17 flash info (1 - Ogier Sébastien / Ingrassia Julien): I couldn't do any quicker than this. My stage was almost perfect, but to get a better time, I'd need some more speed in my car.
28. 04. 2019 22:19
29. 04. 2019 03:19 CET
17 flash info (6 - Sordo Dani / Del Barrio Carlos): I tried to get some clean lines, but it was impossible. And Latvala is being the fastest guy here until now.
28. 04. 2019 22:19
29. 04. 2019 03:19 CET
17 flash info (10 - Latvala Jari-Matti / Anttila Miikka): I gave everything I had in this stage. I am tired, as a matter of fact.
28. 04. 2019 22:18
29. 04. 2019 03:18 CET
17 flash info (3 - Suninen Teemu / Salminen Marko): Same as yesterday. It seems I can't get rid of the intercom problems in this rally.
28. 04. 2019 22:17
29. 04. 2019 03:17 CET
17 flash info (8 - Tänak Ott / Järveoja Martin): Both stages so far have been similar for me. Times are not bad. I might put a harder attack on the Power Stage to get more points, but the rod there is not exactly easy.
28. 04. 2019 22:16
29. 04. 2019 03:16 CET
16 flash info (22 - Østberg Mads / Eriksen Torstein): We lost the intercom again, so I was driving without the pace notes in a few places. At least we made it through the stage.
28. 04. 2019 22:16
29. 04. 2019 03:16 CET
16 flash info (10 - Latvala Jari-Matti / Anttila Miikka): I couldn’t enjoy it so much. I haven’t done this stage this way before. And there was fog in other times, so this is the first time I saw it properly. I need to make some changes in my notes.
28. 04. 2019 22:15
29. 04. 2019 03:15 CET
16 flash info (11 - Neuville Thierry / Gilsoul Nicolas): I take it very carefully as it's very rough. We tried to keep a good rhythm and we will continue like this.
28. 04. 2019 22:15
29. 04. 2019 03:15 CET
16 flash info (89 - Mikkelsen Andreas / Jæger Anders): Clean stage, we have more pace to come if we need. Happy enough.
28. 04. 2019 22:15
29. 04. 2019 03:15 CET
16 flash info (5 - Meeke Kris / Marshall Sebastian): Work is not done yet, we almost caught him here. Hopefully I can do that in the remaining stages.
28. 04. 2019 22:14
29. 04. 2019 03:14 CET
16 flash info (1 - Ogier Sébastien / Ingrassia Julien): I thought I was losing against everybody because I get no traction from the car and it does't feel nice. I am struggling with that.
28. 04. 2019 22:14
29. 04. 2019 03:14 CET
16 flash info (6 - Sordo Dani / Del Barrio Carlos): There are many slippery sections here this morning. I get no grip at all.
28. 04. 2019 22:13
29. 04. 2019 03:13 CET
16 flash info (8 - Tänak Ott / Järveoja Martin): I hope sun shines for me today like it is shinning for the fans. Conditions are good.
27. 04. 2019 22:10
28. 04. 2019 03:10 CET
15 retired (95 - Ibarra Martin / Lema Pablo): retired after SS 15
27. 04. 2019 16:36
27. 04. 2019 21:36 CET
15 flash info (21 - Greensmith Gus / Edmondson Elliott): I really enjoy these stages, which are my favourites. I didn't have a good time here during the morning but the configuration changes made to the Fiesta make me feel much better, so I could enjot the drive this time
27. 04. 2019 16:36
27. 04. 2019 21:36 CET
15 flash info (22 - Østberg Mads / Eriksen Torstein): We lost the intercom and the spare was not prepared. We tried to fix it in the stage. We lost a lot of time
27. 04. 2019 16:35
27. 04. 2019 21:35 CET
15 flash info (11 - Neuville Thierry / Gilsoul Nicolas): I was steady on the beginning because there were several rocks and the last thing we needed was a puncture. Towards the end, I got more confident and pushed harder
27. 04. 2019 16:35
27. 04. 2019 21:35 CET
15 flash info (1 - Ogier Sébastien / Ingrassia Julien): I could push a lot harder now because the steering problem is not a problem anymore and that makes quite a difference. I still think there might be result changes later because somebody has not respected the road book here earlier
27. 04. 2019 16:35
27. 04. 2019 21:35 CET
15 flash info (89 - Mikkelsen Andreas / Jæger Anders): The afternoon is goig very well for me. The oil leak is gone and I am happy with what we are achieving
27. 04. 2019 16:34
27. 04. 2019 21:34 CET
15 flash info (6 - Sordo Dani / Del Barrio Carlos): It would be nice to fight for a podium finish, but right now I fight to be faster and faster everyday. The change the team made to the rear suspension seems to be working fine because now the car does not feel so unstable
27. 04. 2019 16:34
27. 04. 2019 21:34 CET
15 flash info (10 - Latvala Jari-Matti / Anttila Miikka): No problems here. Crossing a waterspalsh, just a little water came into the engine, but it was not a serious misfire
27. 04. 2019 16:32
27. 04. 2019 21:32 CET
15 flash info (3 - Suninen Teemu / Salminen Marko): I didn't hit anything, so it must be some small stones breaking the bodywork. Otherwise, the stage was fine for me
27. 04. 2019 22:09
28. 04. 2019 03:09 CET
14 retired (8 - Tänak Ott / Järveoja Martin): retired in SS 14
27. 04. 2019 14:52
27. 04. 2019 19:52 CET
14 flash info (22 - Østberg Mads / Eriksen Torstein): Conditions are better, the surface is not so bad, drier, and that is why I was able to be faster now than some hours ago
27. 04. 2019 14:44
27. 04. 2019 19:44 CET
14 flash info (11 - Neuville Thierry / Gilsoul Nicolas): I had a good stage, I tried to be careful about punctures and mistakes. I saw a Toyota but wasn't sure it was Tanak so I tried to keep the pace.
27. 04. 2019 14:43
27. 04. 2019 19:43 CET
14 flash info (1 - Ogier Sébastien / Ingrassia Julien): I don’t know what happened to OttTanak, but he was stopped in a very tight left corner and he gave me a sign to say he was ok
27. 04. 2019 14:39
27. 04. 2019 19:39 CET
14 flash info (5 - Meeke Kris / Marshall Sebastian): My car is leaking some oil, yet we are able to keep an interesting pace
27. 04. 2019 14:37
27. 04. 2019 19:37 CET
14 (8 - Tänak Ott / Järveoja Martin): stopped 10.8 km from the start
27. 04. 2019 14:36
27. 04. 2019 19:36 CET
14 flash info (6 - Sordo Dani / Del Barrio Carlos): The car is moving a lot in the rear. I am doing my best to go fast, but the car won't let me because there must be some serious set-up problem in the rear
27. 04. 2019 14:36
27. 04. 2019 19:36 CET
14 flash info (10 - Latvala Jari-Matti / Anttila Miikka): The difference is that now the surface is completely dry or so. There are some ruts in this second pass through the stages, so it is not possible to be completely aggressive. I have good side grip and I am braking better
27. 04. 2019 14:31
27. 04. 2019 19:31 CET
14 flash info (3 - Suninen Teemu / Salminen Marko): We have an issue with the intercom. It wasn’t working in the corners and Marko had to give me the directions with hand signals.
27. 04. 2019 21:59
28. 04. 2019 02:59 CET
12 retired (92 - Zarza Sergio Oscar / Espinoza Hugo Daniel): retired in SS 12
27. 04. 2019 13:46
27. 04. 2019 18:46 CET
12 flash info (11 - Neuville Thierry / Gilsoul Nicolas): It's not an easy rally, either because of the demanding roads or because of the fight we are having for the lead. The good thing is I am still first, so I believe my approach to the afternoon loop will be the same. The car is great, so I can't ask for more
27. 04. 2019 13:45
27. 04. 2019 18:45 CET
12 flash info (8 - Tänak Ott / Järveoja Martin): Today the conditions are very diffierent to what we experienced yesterday. The long 33 km stage is particularly demanding. I have a good feeling with my car and I am enjoying this leg
27. 04. 2019 13:45
27. 04. 2019 18:45 CET
12 flash info (89 - Mikkelsen Andreas / Jæger Anders): I had some ups and downs. The first two stages were not great, but it all went better after that. I had a tough time finding a balance to get the correct angle of the car into corners. We changed the suspension set-up now for the longer stages, so all in all I am quite happy
27. 04. 2019 13:45
27. 04. 2019 18:45 CET
12 flash info (5 - Meeke Kris / Marshall Sebastian): Approaching a watersplash, i pushed the brake pedal and it went like nothing. I jammed the hanbrake and the result was similar, so the exit of that watersplash was a bit our of the road and I hit a wheel. On top of that, I had two punctures. I will try to ctach up the guys in front of me this afternoon
27. 04. 2019 13:44
27. 04. 2019 18:44 CET
12 flash info (1 - Ogier Sébastien / Ingrassia Julien): It's been a complicated morning, for sure. Without the steering issue, everything should have been better. I also made a silly mistake at a gate. The road book tells the road goes through it, but I am not sure f everybody respected that. I slighlty hit the gate, but the loss of time is more serious. The steering is designed to work with the power system; otherwise is a tremendous effort it is almost impossible to hold on for long
27. 04. 2019 13:44
27. 04. 2019 18:44 CET
12 flash info (10 - Latvala Jari-Matti / Anttila Miikka): We have got a good performance in our car. Probably we could get some more speed out of it, but I really liked what we have done this morning. These roads are fast and flowing and more importantly, they are dry!
27. 04. 2019 12:03
27. 04. 2019 17:03 CET
12 (1 - Ogier Sébastien / Ingrassia Julien): no power steering
27. 04. 2019 11:53
27. 04. 2019 16:53 CET
12 (5 - Meeke Kris / Marshall Sebastian): His car has a broken rear right wheel which he moved to the left because his spare wheel was broken, too
27. 04. 2019 12:12
27. 04. 2019 17:12 CET
11 flash info (3 - Suninen Teemu / Salminen Marko): Big ruts on the road and once they pushed me out of the line
27. 04. 2019 12:10
27. 04. 2019 17:10 CET
11 flash info (22 - Østberg Mads / Eriksen Torstein): We had some brake issues in the stage. Other than that stage was fine.
27. 04. 2019 12:09
27. 04. 2019 17:09 CET
11 flash info (5 - Meeke Kris / Marshall Sebastian): We’ve moved up to 3rd but lucky to still be here! Lost the brakes with about 10km to go in that stage then couldn’t get stopped for a water splash and hit a bit rock on the outside. It was a tough stage, we just need to make that podium position stronger now
27. 04. 2019 10:28
27. 04. 2019 15:28 CET
11 flash info (11 - Neuville Thierry / Gilsoul Nicolas): I was always flat out here because our set uo is good. Ott is being very fast and we know that is hard to fight with him when he starts pushing. We still are, anyway, because the rally is still long
27. 04. 2019 10:27
27. 04. 2019 15:27 CET
11 flash info (1 - Ogier Sébastien / Ingrassia Julien): It is really difficult to drive without the power steering. I found a gate in a junction I thought it was different to my recce and made a stupid mistake by hesitating there. I lost valuable time
27. 04. 2019 10:27
27. 04. 2019 15:27 CET
11 flash info (8 - Tänak Ott / Järveoja Martin): It seems the fast guys are coming from behind. I had a good, clean run here, so it seems our performance is paying well
27. 04. 2019 10:26
27. 04. 2019 15:26 CET
11 (5 - Meeke Kris / Marshall Sebastian): brakes problems
27. 04. 2019 10:11
27. 04. 2019 15:11 CET
11 flash info (89 - Mikkelsen Andreas / Jæger Anders): These stages are super nice. I touoched the inside of a corner with plenty of water. Other than that, everything is much better than yesterday
27. 04. 2019 10:08
27. 04. 2019 15:08 CET
11 flash info (6 - Sordo Dani / Del Barrio Carlos): These stages are quite a change compared to what we left behind yesterday. However, it is a tricky morning becaise the surface is dying up quickly. I lost time at the end, but I am pleased with the car
27. 04. 2019 10:07
27. 04. 2019 15:07 CET
11 flash info (10 - Latvala Jari-Matti / Anttila Miikka): That was more or less 5 km before the end after hitting a rock, so I must have lost not more than a couple of seconds, luckily
27. 04. 2019 10:07
27. 04. 2019 15:07 CET
11 (10 - Latvala Jari-Matti / Anttila Miikka): slow puncture
27. 04. 2019 10:06
27. 04. 2019 15:06 CET
11 (3 - Suninen Teemu / Salminen Marko): had a scary moment in a corner
27. 04. 2019 10:01
27. 04. 2019 15:01 CET
10 (44 - Katsuta Takamoto / Barritt Daniel): stopped
27. 04. 2019 09:36
27. 04. 2019 14:36 CET
10 flash info (22 - Østberg Mads / Eriksen Torstein): There's definitely some nice scenery here. The straights are so long you even have time to enjoy it
27. 04. 2019 09:34
27. 04. 2019 14:34 CET
10 flash info (33 - Evans Elfyn / Martin Scott): It's a shame what happened to us because we were in the right direction. It was a fast corner, I lost control in the exit and it was a big crash dur to the large rocks we hit. We would like to restart, but the priority is to get the car back to the team service park keep in mind chile into chek and repair. I mustn't forget we have Chile in two weeks
27. 04. 2019 09:33
27. 04. 2019 14:33 CET
10 flash info (11 - Neuville Thierry / Gilsoul Nicolas): I am giving my best, but it seems these roads are made for the Toyotas. They are more aerodynamic and get more speed in places like this
27. 04. 2019 09:19
27. 04. 2019 14:19 CET
10 flash info (1 - Ogier Sébastien / Ingrassia Julien): It looks it is difficult to match the speed of the Toyotas. I am trying, though
27. 04. 2019 09:18
27. 04. 2019 14:18 CET
10 flash info (8 - Tänak Ott / Järveoja Martin): This is a narrow road and conditions are tricky. I am fine with my times even though I'd say I am not pushing to the limit yet
27. 04. 2019 09:18
27. 04. 2019 14:18 CET
10 flash info (5 - Meeke Kris / Marshall Sebastian): To be honest, I enjoyed yesterday's stages a little more. Here I found it tough to get good grip, but there is no doubt I can't complain about my pace
27. 04. 2019 09:18
27. 04. 2019 14:18 CET
10 flash info (89 - Mikkelsen Andreas / Jæger Anders): I did some mistakes in the beggining even if I was on the careful side, anyway. It shoud get better for me later

27. 04. 2019 14:14 CET
10 flash info (3 - Suninen Teemu / Salminen Marko): This is a nice place, but we mustn't forget there are large rocks out of the road, so I tried to be precise in my lines

8 flash info (33 - Evans Elfyn / Martin Scott): This stage was for me like the rest of the leg. That is, partially OK, but not exactly what I wanted
26. 04. 2019 18:19
26. 04. 2019 23:19 CET
8 flash info (1 - Ogier Sébastien / Ingrassia Julien): I can't go faster, but I don't know why. Something in the performance of the car is not OK
26. 04. 2019 18:18
26. 04. 2019 23:18 CET
8 (8 - Tänak Ott / Järveoja Martin): spun as a consequence of a broken driveshaft
26. 04. 2019 18:18
26. 04. 2019 23:18 CET
8 flash info (11 - Neuville Thierry / Gilsoul Nicolas): Definitely the surface in this second run here was rougher. To be third on the road is not the best, but considering this I guess my time was fine
27. 04. 2019 21:44
28. 04. 2019 02:44 CET
7 retired (42 - Heller Alberto / Diaz Jose): retired after SS 7
26. 04. 2019 18:17
26. 04. 2019 23:17 CET
7 flash info (23 - Bulacia Marco / Cretu Fabian): Considering the change of surface we are always facing, I am satisfied with my own pace
26. 04. 2019 18:17
26. 04. 2019 23:17 CET
7 flash info (22 - Østberg Mads / Eriksen Torstein): About 11 km before the end i felt something strange in the car and it was obviously this puncture. Fortunately, I didn't lose as much time as i thought
26. 04. 2019 16:27
26. 04. 2019 21:27 CET
7 flash info (89 - Mikkelsen Andreas / Jæger Anders): I did everything I could, but I was feeling the front left tyre had a very low pressure, so I sturggled with this for most of the course
26. 04. 2019 16:24
26. 04. 2019 21:24 CET
7 flash info (3 - Suninen Teemu / Salminen Marko): I was being careful because I still find it tough to spot where the slippery mud is
26. 04. 2019 16:21
26. 04. 2019 21:21 CET
7 flash info (10 - Latvala Jari-Matti / Anttila Miikka): I am disappointed because I was not driving well. I was being too cautious, perhaps because I had more than just one puncture earlier and I couldn't afford one more
26. 04. 2019 16:15
26. 04. 2019 21:15 CET
7 flash info (5 - Meeke Kris / Marshall Sebastian): The road was so cut up it looked like a second pass to it. I've got no traction and I have no asnwer to the times of the guys in front
26. 04. 2019 16:10
26. 04. 2019 21:10 CET
7 flash info (33 - Evans Elfyn / Martin Scott): I didnt feel so bad, but it seems we lost valuable time here. The stage is a mix between fast bends and narrow, twisty places
26. 04. 2019 16:10
26. 04. 2019 21:10 CET
7 flash info (8 - Tänak Ott / Järveoja Martin): It was a normal stage for me, but we crossed a huge watersplash flat out and I think some water came into the engine, so I lost power for a while. I am doing my best this afternoon
26. 04. 2019 16:09
26. 04. 2019 21:09 CET
7 flash info (1 - Ogier Sébastien / Ingrassia Julien): SS7 was better than we expected. Not as muddy as I thought. I can see the fight between leaders is very close
26. 04. 2019 16:09
26. 04. 2019 21:09 CET
7 flash info (11 - Neuville Thierry / Gilsoul Nicolas): This stage was really fine for us. it was quite helpful to watch videos last night trying to spot where to find less mud in order to push harder
26. 04. 2019 11:27
26. 04. 2019 16:27 CET
7 Unlike SS3, it was decided that the second run through Amboy-Yacanto will definitely take place, so SS7 is all good to go later this afternoon
27. 04. 2019 21:42

26. 04. 2019 18:38 CET
5 flash info (89 - Mikkelsen Andreas / Jæger Anders): Of course it all went better when we saw some places in the road were getting dry, at least more than in the start of the day. We are still in the fight. I had a puncture in SS4. 6 km into it, my co-driver Anders Jägers told me to be careful because one of the tyres was gone. Many things can happen this afternoon, I guess
26. 04. 2019 13:38
26. 04. 2019 18:38 CET
5 flash info (10 - Latvala Jari-Matti / Anttila Miikka): Generally speaking, I am pleased. We had to be very careful, choosing where to go. If you hit damp patches all of a sudden, you end up out of the road. I guess this requires an extra dose of concentration
26. 04. 2019 13:05
26. 04. 2019 18:05 CET
5 flash info (6 - Sordo Dani / Del Barrio Carlos): Staying in the road is the target. In the mud, you never know how to be accurate. You don't get a precise feeling very often
26. 04. 2019 13:05
26. 04. 2019 18:05 CET
5 flash info (4 - Lappi Esapekka / Ferm Janne): My main delay was a puncture in the morning loop. I saw Meeke's lines earlier, but that was too crazy for me to go through those same places. It stopped raining but the mud is still there and beneath the mud we might find rock in the afternoon. Sometimes I felt like taking your car out of the garage in cold tyres, reaching 100 km/h and trying to stop it all of a sudden. Good luck with that!
26. 04. 2019 13:04
26. 04. 2019 18:04 CET
5 flash info (5 - Meeke Kris / Marshall Sebastian): It was complicated driving through the areas where we found those patches of black mud. Instead, the sandy sections were definitely easier, like it should be later today. This year's Rally Argentina is proving quite of a challenge, but of course it is nice to be leading the rally even if there is still a long way to go
26. 04. 2019 13:04
26. 04. 2019 18:04 CET
5 flash info (33 - Evans Elfyn / Martin Scott): I could have done better in some stages, but the truth is it was very diffcult to find a balance. There were several sections where one would hesitate. I thought I could find more re grip even in Wales!
26. 04. 2019 13:03
26. 04. 2019 18:03 CET
5 flash info (8 - Tänak Ott / Järveoja Martin): We got more confidence in the last couple of stages. It was difficult to expect something accurate in terms of the stages surface. We have to try to understand the conditions and work on the car set-up
26. 04. 2019 13:02
26. 04. 2019 18:02 CET
5 flash info (1 - Ogier Sébastien / Ingrassia Julien): This superspecial was the best of the season, very enjoyable. The morning route was very slippery. We didn't know where to find grip and push harder nor where to take it easier. Gaps are not that big and there is a lot to play yet
26. 04. 2019 13:02
26. 04. 2019 18:02 CET
5 flash info (11 - Neuville Thierry / Gilsoul Nicolas): I am finding a good feeling with the car and I am driving in a comfortable way despite the mud, particularly now that it is getting a bit drier
26. 04. 2019 14:40
26. 04. 2019 19:40 CET
4 retired (43 - Kajetanowicz Kajetan / Szczepaniak Maciej): broken suspension after SS 4
26. 04. 2019 11:04
26. 04. 2019 16:04 CET
4 flash info (43 - Kajetanowicz Kajetan / Szczepaniak Maciej): It was a straight line and we landed heavily even though it was a really small jump. My car is normally strong, so I don't know why it looks worse from the outside than it was on board
26. 04. 2019 11:03
26. 04. 2019 16:03 CET
4 flash info (23 - Bulacia Marco / Cretu Fabian): We had a puncture and we stopped immediately, but we were in a hurry and it was a shame it was the wrong wheel, so I had t stop again
26. 04. 2019 11:03
26. 04. 2019 16:03 CET
4 flash info (41 - Guerra Benito / Zapata Jaime): We rolled the car in the mud because earlier today we were not able to get it right even in a straight line. We fell in a ditch and people helped put the car back into the road. I must have spolied 1m at least
26. 04. 2019 10:48
26. 04. 2019 15:48 CET
4 flash info (22 - Østberg Mads / Eriksen Torstein): I am still learning this car. Setting some good stage times is always possitive, aprticularly in these conditions
26. 04. 2019 10:48
26. 04. 2019 15:48 CET
4 flash info (21 - Greensmith Gus / Edmondson Elliott): This stage felt better, but I got it mostly right, so I am pleased
26. 04. 2019 10:45
26. 04. 2019 15:45 CET
4 flash info (89 - Mikkelsen Andreas / Jæger Anders): I've got a front left puncture after 5 km. Maybe we needed to take it easier
26. 04. 2019 10:43
26. 04. 2019 15:43 CET
4 flash info (3 - Suninen Teemu / Salminen Marko): Water came into the engine and I struggled for quite some time before it cleared
26. 04. 2019 10:41
26. 04. 2019 15:41 CET
4 flash info (10 - Latvala Jari-Matti / Anttila Miikka): The road is progressively becoming more consistent, yet we get some surprises at the wheel. Overall, I am happy
26. 04. 2019 10:39
26. 04. 2019 15:39 CET
4 flash info (6 - Sordo Dani / Del Barrio Carlos): It's alright. Frankly, it is difficult to find grip or to spot the drier areas where we could push a little bit more
26. 04. 2019 10:37
26. 04. 2019 15:37 CET
4 flash info (4 - Lappi Esapekka / Ferm Janne): I have a rear puncture because I was caugh hitting the edge of the road after a crest
26. 04. 2019 10:32
26. 04. 2019 15:32 CET
4 flash info (33 - Evans Elfyn / Martin Scott): Generally, this stage was better, but there are still a lot of tricky places
26. 04. 2019 10:29
26. 04. 2019 15:29 CET
4 flash info (8 - Tänak Ott / Järveoja Martin): It was a clean run for us despite the changing conditions. We had no issues
26. 04. 2019 10:28
26. 04. 2019 15:28 CET
4 flash info (1 - Ogier Sébastien / Ingrassia Julien): It is not easy to drive smoothly in this surface, but I am still trying to do my best
26. 04. 2019 10:26
26. 04. 2019 15:26 CET
4 flash info (11 - Neuville Thierry / Gilsoul Nicolas): This stage was better than before, for sure. I was able to push harder. I lost time here and there, but otherwise it was a good time for me. We are trying to set the car up
26. 04. 2019 10:16
26. 04. 2019 15:16 CET
3 The cancellation of Amboy-Yacanto means that Leg 1 longest stage (29.85 km) is not going to be run due to safety reasons.
26. 04. 2019 10:15
26. 04. 2019 15:15 CET
2 flash info (22 - Østberg Mads / Eriksen Torstein): It's not so bad. There are sections which are really muddy, but at least vision is good. Let's find some humour in this
26. 04. 2019 10:15
26. 04. 2019 15:15 CET
2 flash info (89 - Mikkelsen Andreas / Jæger Anders): We got a nicer time than we thought, so I am pleased. I was quickest until the last split, but I am feeling a lot of negative camber in the car, so I could not do the last few kilometers flat out
26. 04. 2019 10:15
26. 04. 2019 15:15 CET
2 flash info (3 - Suninen Teemu / Salminen Marko): It was hard to drive in such a muddy surface because we don't know where it is better or worse
26. 04. 2019 10:14
26. 04. 2019 15:14 CET
2 flash info (10 - Latvala Jari-Matti / Anttila Miikka): I never drove with so much water in some of my lines in Argentina before
26. 04. 2019 10:14
26. 04. 2019 15:14 CET
2 flash info (6 - Sordo Dani / Del Barrio Carlos): I started well with better grip in some corners, but in the final section it was far too slippery. We were braking more often than we thought. These are not nice conditons
26. 04. 2019 10:13
26. 04. 2019 15:13 CET
2 flash info (4 - Lappi Esapekka / Ferm Janne): I am being careful. I was paying attention to Meeke's lines. Not a place to get risks for me
26. 04. 2019 10:10
26. 04. 2019 15:10 CET
2 flash info (5 - Meeke Kris / Marshall Sebastian): There were just a few places OK here, but most of the road was very, very muddy. Interesting changes to what we expected. I took it easy and I was almost a passenger in my car
26. 04. 2019 10:10

26. 04. 2019 08:13
26. 04. 2019 13:13 CET
1 flash info (11 - Neuville Thierry / Gilsoul Nicolas): If this superspecial was a challenge, I can't imagine how difficult it could be the rest of the first leg out there
26. 04. 2019 08:12
26. 04. 2019 13:12 CET
1 flash info (1 - Ogier Sébastien / Ingrassia Julien): You need to be clever in these conditions, especially because we don't know what to expect after tonight
26. 04. 2019 08:12
26. 04. 2019 13:12 CET
1 flash info (8 - Tänak Ott / Järveoja Martin): This is simple: we don't know how wet or muddy we will tackle the rest of tomorrow's stages, but it seems it might prove a tough day
26. 04. 2019 08:12
26. 04. 2019 13:12 CET
1 flash info (33 - Evans Elfyn / Martin Scott): In my opinion, it will be a case of focusing to stay on the road
26. 04. 2019 08:11
26. 04. 2019 13:11 CET
1 flash info (5 - Meeke Kris / Marshall Sebastian): We are good in the rain, but I guess none of us gets a clear idea of how the hilly roads can be next morning in these conditions
26. 04. 2019 08:11
26. 04. 2019 13:11 CET
1 flash info (4 - Lappi Esapekka / Ferm Janne): Nothing wrong here, but actually the tough part of the events comes tomorrow
26. 04. 2019 08:08
26. 04. 2019 13:08 CET
1 flash info (6 - Sordo Dani / Del Barrio Carlos): Tomorrow might be a tricky day with difficult conditions. Dealing with a slippery surface all around will not be easy
26. 04. 2019 08:08
26. 04. 2019 13:08 CET
1 flash info (10 - Latvala Jari-Matti / Anttila Miikka): I like friends on the road, but not specifically this sort of!. We were lucky nothing bad really happened
26. 04. 2019 08:08
26. 04. 2019 13:08 CET
1 (3 - Suninen Teemu / Salminen Marko): spun his Fiesta in one of the stage's roundabouts. He almost hit the barrier
26. 04. 2019 08:07
26. 04. 2019 13:07 CET
1 flash info (89 - Mikkelsen Andreas / Jæger Anders): This stage was very slippey and it was difficult to see. I am pleased, anyway
26. 04. 2019 08:06
26. 04. 2019 13:06 CET
1 flash info (21 - Greensmith Gus / Edmondson Elliott): I'd like to think I can be the fastest guy in my class since tomorrow when the rally goes to the really longer stages, but this is a good start for sure
26. 04. 2019 08:06
26. 04. 2019 13:06 CET
1 flash info (22 - Østberg Mads / Eriksen Torstein): I feel confident for the weekend because I know this rally quite well, although what I don't know so well is this car!
26. 04. 2019 08:06
26. 04. 2019 13:06 CET
1 flash info (23 - Bulacia Marco / Cretu Fabian): I can already spot a lot of fans from my country with their flags, so I feel happy to have started the rally. I'll try to do my best tomorrow
26. 04. 2019 08:05
26. 04. 2019 13:05 CET
1 flash info (41 - Guerra Benito / Zapata Jaime): I was not sure about my time, but it seems it is not so bad!
26. 04. 2019 08:05
26. 04. 2019 13:05 CET
1 flash info (42 - Heller Alberto / Diaz Jose): This is just the start. Tomorrow is a much longer day. We wanted to enjoy this superspecial and I am pleased about how it went
26. 04. 2019 08:04
26. 04. 2019 13:04 CET
1 flash info (43 - Kajetanowicz Kajetan / Szczepaniak Maciej): Lots of people watching. I made a mistake by spinning in a wet roundabout
