(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!

(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.

(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.

(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.

(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.
|

(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!

28. 02. 2021 12:58 CET |
10 |
(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.

(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.

(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.

28. 02. 2021 12:42 CET |
10 |
(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.

In the last corner, we have an issue with the engine and I was looking at the dashboard. A difficult weekend.

(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.

(20 - Mikkelsen Andreas / Fløene Ola):
What an amazing stage - I wish I could be really flat out! We are so far behind Lappi so we just went in cruise mode.

28. 02. 2021 10:09 CET |

(25 - Lappi Esapekka / Ferm Janne):
I don't know how to describe it for people who haven't driven a rally car. It feels so great and the conditions are so good on the first pass.

28. 02. 2021 10:57
28. 02. 2021 09:57 CET |

(8 - Tänak Ott / Järveoja Martin):
It's easier to just think about the driving and not the gaps. Let's see - the next time through is more important.
|

28. 02. 2021 09:52 CET |
9 |
(69 - Rovanperä Kalle / Halttunen Jonne):
I was not so good in there. It has been quite difficult this weekend - the pace is not what it should be and I am struggling in many places with the car. We will fight back on the last one.
|
|
28. 02. 2021 10:52
28. 02. 2021 09:52 CET |
9 |
(11 - Neuville Thierry / Wydaeghe Martijn):
I don't know To be honest, we did a good stage but my pace notes were a bit slow. It's really tricky to commit to the pace notes so I was maybe a bit careful, but I tried my best.
|
|
28. 02. 2021 10:47
28. 02. 2021 09:47 CET |
9 |
(42 - Breen Craig / Nagle Paul):
There was an oil leak in the morning, mechanics changed gearbox in 15 minutes service. I wish I could pay back the guys the right way - they did an amazing job this morning and I didn't deliver for them.
|
|
28. 02. 2021 10:43
28. 02. 2021 09:43 CET |
9 |
(33 - Evans Elfyn / Martin Scott):
It's a fast stage, that's for sure. For me, the grip at the start was really surprising and much higher. I was probably a bit too careful at the start, but we adapted and were able to find some good pace.
|
|
28. 02. 2021 10:41
28. 02. 2021 09:41 CET |
9 |
(2 - Solberg Oliver / Marshall Sebastian):
I was way too careful in the beginning. In the middle I could get loose and get the feeling again. We just enjoyed it and we will see what we can do in the Power Stage.
|
|
28. 02. 2021 10:40
28. 02. 2021 09:40 CET |
9 |
(18 - Katsuta Takamoto / Barritt Daniel):
Yeah - a clean run. Conditions are very nice and I enjoyed a lot. In some places I was a bit careful because some snow has changed since the recce. I will push hard in the Power Stage.
|

28. 02. 2021 10:40
28. 02. 2021 09:40 CET |

(3 - Suninen Teemu / Markkula Mikko):
I had a pretty good feeling - a couple of moments but that's it. I am doing my best and that's all I can do.
|

28. 02. 2021 10:40
28. 02. 2021 09:40 CET |
9 |
(44 - Greensmith Gus / Edmondson Elliott):
Not very good then. I think my pace notes were a long way out for this stage. Sometimes too fast, sometimes too slow, so we need to have a look at them and change them.
|
|
28. 02. 2021 10:39
28. 02. 2021 09:39 CET |
9 |
(1 - Ogier Sébastien / Ingrassia Julien):
What else can I do? We will give everything we have to try and catch some points, but if we get some points it will not be many I think.
|

28. 02. 2021 10:39
28. 02. 2021 09:39 CET |
9 |
(7 - Loubet Pierre-Louis / Landais Vincent):
It was nice. The grip was much high than yesterday, I don't know if it's because I was opening the road. The feeling was nice.
|

28. 02. 2021 10:39
28. 02. 2021 09:39 CET |
9 |
(37 - Bertelli Lorenzo / Scattolin Simone):
It was a fantastic stage - I didn't have any lines to follow but I enjoyed it. It was not a perfect run for me but I'm happy to be here - it's a shame about yesterday.

(1 - Ogier Sébastien / Ingrassia Julien):
Last real corner - we went a little bit too sideways and caught the bank. It's a shame, but it's a weekend to forget.

27. 02. 2021 18:37 CET |

(8 - Tänak Ott / Järveoja Martin):
It went to plan. The tyres were quite tired, so it was important to get here without any mistakes.

27. 02. 2021 18:37 CET |
8 |
(42 - Breen Craig / Nagle Paul):
It's so frustrating for me. We needed to bring our top game here and I'm not really bringing it today. I tried to use what I know with my little experience but it's not easy for sure.

(69 - Rovanperä Kalle / Halttunen Jonne):
I think Thierry made the right choice with the tyres. It was really clever from him, I have to say. Tomorrow we have to push and we will see what we can do.

(33 - Evans Elfyn / Martin Scott):
It was a really good stage. The car was working really nice and I tried to save my tyres throughout the whole stage. It was a very clean run and the communication is better, but we can still improve.
|

The grip was very low towards the end and I was too careful, I didn't take enough chances. That's how it is but we're still here.

The stage before, we started to have a lot of movement on the tyres. Now we fit some new tyres to the front - I still believe this one was quite okay.

Maybe the other guys are being clever and saving their tyres! We took a small gamble with the tyres and put them on crossed.

27. 02. 2021 16:43 CET |

It went okay. I had a very clean and smooth run trying to save my tyres and it was working well. I am feeling comfortable in the car and our communication is working better as well.

27. 02. 2021 16:42 CET |

(3 - Suninen Teemu / Markkula Mikko):
The conditions are really tricky. There's a clean line, but also a lot of messy snow outside of the lines. It's hard to go flat out and look after the tyres. Let's see what we can do when we get the fresh tyres.

I am really disappointed that I couldn't be at maximum attack but the time is okay. The next one will be even trickier.

The track is quite wide and there's a lot of fresh snow and gravel everywhere, I think it will clean quite a bit.

It's so difficult - we were just trying to come through as smooth as possible but I'm sure it's very hard for tyre wear.

(69 - Rovanperä Kalle / Halttunen Jonne):
It seems that the balance is better with the car now. The condition is really rough and the front tyres are really worn out. We still have two more to go and I think it's going to be quite a tough loop.

27. 02. 2021 15:24 CET |

(11 - Neuville Thierry / Wydaeghe Martijn):
Maybe I did a little too much on the tyres. I felt them going suddenly and we didn't experience that at all in the testing. We will try to manage for the next stages.

27. 02. 2021 15:15 CET |

(3 - Suninen Teemu / Markkula Mikko):
The stage was quite messy - a lot of loose snow and no grip at all. I think the cars behind will be coming faster.

27. 02. 2021 15:15 CET |

Conditions are very tricky. We got stuck in a snow bank once - luckily we got out quite quickly but we lost some time.

(2 - Solberg Oliver / Marshall Sebastian):
Difficult! It's the most difificult thing I have ever done in my life. Sideways everywhere, snow bank into snow bank! I tried to take care of my tyres at the beginning but it was very difficult.

27. 02. 2021 15:06 CET |
6 |
(1 - Ogier Sébastien / Ingrassia Julien):
I tried, but I'm afraid the times will improve because it's pretty loose on the second loop. My tyres were really destroyed at the end, so I think it will be a difficult loop for tyres.

It's okay - a little rough. We had to drive behind Loubet for some time and he had to wait for a place to let us overtake him.

27. 02. 2021 15:51
27. 02. 2021 14:51 CET |

27. 02. 2021 14:50 CET |

(20 - Mikkelsen Andreas / Fløene Ola):
I tried to push as hard as I could. I have to use the handbrake a bit to commit more, but if I push any more I will be really on the limit. I don't have much more to give.

(25 - Lappi Esapekka / Ferm Janne):
The gaps are not huge - we have a big lead, but we can't make any mistakes. It's been very good so far.

(8 - Tänak Ott / Järveoja Martin):
We did some changes before, and the car was behaving very nice. It's so difficult to find the confidence, but if you know this stage then it's one of the best.

We whacked rear of our car to snowbank. Luckily we got out! For some reason it was really slippery, but we need to improve.

5 |
(33 - Evans Elfyn / Martin Scott):
It was very fast and it's difficult when it's like that - sometimes I felt I was too slow and other times quite a bit too fast. In some places I thought I was too sideways, but at least I was able to carry the speed.

I was enjoying a lot on the stage. I was happy with what we did - my job is to push my car to the limits and I am really trying to do it.

(18 - Katsuta Takamoto / Barritt Daniel):
This stage was quite tricky. I really didn't like my driving so I will try and improve next time in the dark. On many corners I was not so confident.

(2 - Solberg Oliver / Marshall Sebastian):
It was a proper stage! That was the best stage today - I pushed hard in many places but then I was too careful in others. The time is not bad, so I'm happy.

Better than yesterday, but everything we lost yesterday will be difficult to catch. This one was okay, a little bit of snow on the road.

That felt like the worst stage of the day - I couldn't seem to find a rhythm and I made some mistakes in a few places.

It's nice to have a team-mate like Lappi. The stage was okay, in the last part I was losing a bit but I was trying to be a bit more gentle and stay on the line.

Rallying doesn't really get better than this. We have great conditions, fast roads and big banks! I can't complain.

I thought I did a good stage. I tried to tidy it up in a few places, but honestly, there's not much more I can do.

(69 - Rovanperä Kalle / Halttunen Jonne):
There are so many seconds I should be able to take away, but at this stage I can not. I don't have the feeling with the car and it's not doing what I want, so in many places I just lose the car and the line. We have to see what we can do.

(11 - Neuville Thierry / Wydaeghe Martijn):
We have some struggles. We are working on it, but it's not easy - I have to be very concentrated. Not a good stage for us to be honest.

27. 02. 2021 10:13 CET |

(33 - Evans Elfyn / Martin Scott):
It's a fast stage, for sure some places could have been better still, but when it's so fast you have to make sure your notes are right first. All okay.

(3 - Suninen Teemu / Markkula Mikko):
We are missing corners - like sixth gear, long uphills, I am flat out. We can't make a difference. There are no corners to make a difference.

27. 02. 2021 10:09 CET |
4 |
(18 - Katsuta Takamoto / Barritt Daniel):
Quite a nice stage. I was a little bit hesistant on some corners so I lost a few seconds from that. The stages are so amazing, I like them a lot. On the next run I will really push a lot and try to be much faster.

(2 - Solberg Oliver / Marshall Sebastian):
It was a terrible drive. I couldn't find the confidence on the very fast stuff, it needs such commitment and I was too cautious. I'm learning, so I'm happy.

That's up there with one of the best stages I have ever driven - it's something really special to drive one of these cars in there. Feeling pretty lucky!

(8 - Tänak Ott / Järveoja Martin):
This morning I was pushing quite hard and sometimes hitting the banks. It's difficult, far back the ice is already in some lines and it's changing a lot.

27. 02. 2021 10:41
27. 02. 2021 09:41 CET |
3 |
(42 - Breen Craig / Nagle Paul):
A lot of mistakes. I was in several snow banks and we should have been left stuck in them. I was expecting the grip to be much higher - I tried to do the best I could but it's not good enough.

27. 02. 2021 09:41 CET |
3 |
(69 - Rovanperä Kalle / Halttunen Jonne):
It was not good. We changed the setup from yesterday and it didn't really get any better. I am struggling with the balance, I have a lot of understeer and I can not be on the pace I want.

27. 02. 2021 09:40 CET |

It was an okay stage, but I can't understand. We made some changes to the intercom system and it doesn't work - I misheard some words and I am hesitating too much.

27. 02. 2021 09:40 CET |

(3 - Suninen Teemu / Markkula Mikko):
We are having good rhythm in slow places, but we can't drive fast on the straights. We are giving everything and it's a good fight with Taka.

27. 02. 2021 09:40 CET |

I lost quite a lot. I think I was too careful on the icy sections so that's one reason. It's fine.

27. 02. 2021 09:39 CET |

It's amazing. It felt quite good, but I couldn't find the rhythm at the beginning, it was so difficult and narrow. Once I found the rhythm it was good.

(1 - Ogier Sébastien / Ingrassia Julien):
I tried to drive as fast as I can. I'm not sure, it was not so easy, but let's see how the times are developing. I can not say - for sure, it's very slippery out there.

27. 02. 2021 10:39
27. 02. 2021 09:39 CET |
3 |
(44 - Greensmith Gus / Edmondson Elliott):
I felt like I was losing a lot of traction on the exit of corners so maybe we will make some tweaks - for me, it felt like a smooth stage.

It's very difficult in the dark because you're fully sideways and you don't know what you are going to hit! I am really starting to understand everything now, so it was very enjoyable and great to drive on this stage.

2 |
(42 - Breen Craig / Nagle Paul):
Shocking. The last 3km were a huge surprise to me. I was missing the front in a few places and I really wasn't trying to protect them because I didn't think I would be losing studs.

(8 - Tänak Ott / Järveoja Martin):
I tried to be very nice to the tyres at the beginning and after 10km I thought - the tyres were finished - and I knew there was still 20km to go. In the end it was just handbrake. I tried to be as nice as possible, but it was difficult, it's just such a hard surface.

2 |
(44 - Greensmith Gus / Edmondson Elliott):
Pretty god damn good! In the dark, it's just relying on the notes and it was much better than the first one. We gave away so much time on the first stage which was disappointing, but at least it's good now.

(18 - Katsuta Takamoto / Barritt Daniel):
It's very challenging. On a lot of crests you can not see ahead, which makes it more scary for you! At the end of the stage we had a puncture so I had to slow down. We survived this tricky stage so I am happy!

26. 02. 2021 18:08 CET |
2 |
(69 - Rovanperä Kalle / Halttunen Jonne):
Not good. The stage is in really bad condition with a lot of gravel, so my front tyres are completely gone and I lost a lot of time at the end. If somebody can manage their tyres really good, they will be really quick.

In the conditions, I am quite satisfied. I had a lot of understeer towards the end and I thought I had a puncture so I took a lot of speed off.

26. 02. 2021 18:02 CET |

It's a different story but the time difference will be the same. I did what I could but it was quite difficult. We'll see what we can do tomororw, but it looks like we will be quite far away already.

(8 - Tänak Ott / Järveoja Martin):
It's hard to say it's perfect, there is still quite a lot of understeer. It's a very demanding stage and the conditions were nice. For sure it's enjoyable, but it's only the first stage and there's a long way to go.

(11 - Neuville Thierry / Wydaeghe Martijn):
There is a lot of cleaning and a lot of fresh snow. I was already getting some benefit from the lines. We were looking to find a good rhythm and it didn't work all the time. It won't be enough for the guys behind, that's for sure.

26. 02. 2021 14:32 CET |

(33 - Evans Elfyn / Martin Scott):
The grip deteriorated and got more loose towards the end. You feel like in some places you can go faster, but in other places it's naturally more on the limit. It's difficult to find the balance in these conditions.

(42 - Breen Craig / Nagle Paul):
It's absolutely incredible conditions in there. You can just go like the clappers and carry so much speed. Conditions like this blow your mind - they are really something special.

(3 - Suninen Teemu / Markkula Mikko):
I felt pretty okay but it looks like we have a challenging rally ahead. I could find one or two seconds if I was completely on the limit but it's not going to be easy.

(44 - Greensmith Gus / Edmondson Elliott):
I was surprised how much grip we have and I wasn't really using much of it! We've got some clear ways we can improve which is good, but it's mega!

It's so fun - very nice stages. This afternoon will be more narrow and tricky but the feeling is good. It's going to be a fun weekend.

(69 - Rovanperä Kalle / Halttunen Jonne):
It's going to be difficult for sure. I was just trying to have a nice feeling in the car and I made a few mistakes here and there. Let's try to be quick this weekend.

(11 - Neuville Thierry / Wydaeghe Martijn):
I have no idea what we can achieve. The car felt quite okay for the first run but we can improve a little bit and try to have a good weekend in the snow. I am looking forward - I had a good preparation.

(33 - Evans Elfyn / Martin Scott):
It's very, let's say, wide in places and it will probably be quite different to the rally actually.

(1 - Ogier Sébastien / Ingrassia Julien):
It's really nice - it's actually much higher grip than I expected. I didn't drive so well, but shakedown is there for us to get a better feeling.
