INFORMATION ABOUT SS 5
flash info (44 - Greensmith Gus / Andersson Jonas): No issues - there's nothing really to fight for and I didn't have a first pass this morning, so it's quite tricky to come straight out of the blocks. I didn't want to do anything stupid.
flash info (1 - Ogier Sébastien / Landais Vincent): This morning we obviously drove slower in this one because of the puncture. The feeling in the car is good. The only thing we can do is enjoy the driving and keep working on the car.
flash info (18 - Katsuta Takamoto / Johnston Aaron): The car has improved and I feel more natural driving. I was still hesitant to carry the speed because you never know how much grip there is. It's quite okay.
flash info (33 - Evans Elfyn / Martin Scott): Clean. A bit better than this morning and a bit more consistent, but still some tricky places and always quite busy!
flash info (11 - Neuville Thierry / Wydaeghe Martijn): It was a clean run. I'm enjoying the car a bit more now and we have a better balance. It's quite tricky with the visibility and I struggled a bit, but I think for everybody it's the same.
flash info (8 - Tänak Ott / Järveoja Martin): We got the transmission fixed. In some faster places I still struggled with the balance but in the very twisty and slow it wasn't so bad. It's a tricky one but we are doing what we can.
flash info (69 - Rovanperä Kalle / Halttunen Jonne): We tried to change the balance of the car a bit. It can be better in places now in this loop. It was not so bad in this stage so let's see what it's like in the other one with a bit more space.
Stage was shortened from finish because of fire in first run.
