INFORMATION ABOUT SS 10
retired (50 - von Thurn und Taxis Albert / Ettel Bernhard): retired after SS 10
flash info (8 - Tänak Ott / Järveoja Martin): First, when you come to a new event it's always a bit unexpected. This weekend, we came to the home country of Toyota and we expected them to be very strong. The pressure was there and we knew it was going to be very complicated to take the fight. In the end we did a very good weekend - nothing too much, only one mistake yesterday. It's an amazing place - definitely one of the best places to have a winter rally, especially yesterday, it was so demanding. I think to come back here a second time would be much more enjoyable, especially when you know where you are going!
flash info (69 - Rovanperä Kalle / Halttunen Jonne): For sure, this weekend I wanted to fight for the top place and I made a mistake and we were not on the optimal pace. I was pushing the whole weekend, maximum all the time. It was a great weekend from my side and Jonne's side, we did everything we could and we are happy to get P2 here.
flash info (11 - Neuville Thierry / Wydaeghe Martijn): I had a good stage, but obviously Craig did as well! I lost the front tyres a little towards the end. I am satisfied with my weekend, especially considering some of our issues. We can't forget that we started third on the road.
flash info (42 - Breen Craig / Nagle Paul): I didn't think it was great - I just tried to clean up bits and pieces where I was untidy before. I have to say thanks to the engineers, they gave me some info on bits I was doing wrong. It was really hard mentally for me this weekend. After delivering so much in Estonia, the goalposts moved suddenly and you just want to deliver a win.
flash info (33 - Evans Elfyn / Martin Scott): It seemed quite slippery towards the end. I felt like I had a good clean run - that's a good time from Seb! It's not been the weekend we wanted. Okay, good speed at times but not what we wanted for sure.
flash info (2 - Solberg Oliver / Marshall Sebastian): I don't know when I am going to drive it next so I thought I will just go for it. I lost sixth place - I am sorry, but I tried!
flash info (18 - Katsuta Takamoto / Barritt Daniel): For me, when conditions are consistent I feel quite confident, but if it's like this with a lot of ruts I feel less confident. Okay, I am happy with this weekend and thank you to the team.
(2 - Solberg Oliver / Marshall Sebastian): spun
flash info (3 - Suninen Teemu / Markkula Mikko): I watched the onboard from my first run and found a few places I could go faster. I really hoped that we did it, but still we are quite a bit behind Ogier.
flash info (44 - Greensmith Gus / Edmondson Elliott): Generally the driving was getting a bit better. Some things were improved, but there's still a lot to work on.
flash info (1 - Ogier Sébastien / Ingrassia Julien): The last section was too much cleaning still, so it won't be enough to make a good time. I couldn't do more than that - that's the way it is, until the next one. It's a beautiful place to rally here. Of course when you're first on the road it's not the same story, but that's the WRC game.
flash info (7 - Loubet Pierre-Louis / Landais Vincent): In the last corner, we have an issue with the engine and I was looking at the dashboard. A difficult weekend.
(7 - Loubet Pierre-Louis / Landais Vincent): was out of road in last corner
(7 - Loubet Pierre-Louis / Landais Vincent): technical problems with engine
flash info (37 - Bertelli Lorenzo / Scattolin Simone): This stage was nice - the last part was quite tricky with a lot of ruts. I enjoyed being here again, let's see if we can do some more this year.
Starting order: Bertelli, Loubet, Ogier, Greensmith, Suninen, Katsuta, Solberg, Evans, Breen, Neuville, Rovanperä, Tänak
