INFORMATION ABOUT SS 8
retired (29 - Díaz Aboitiz Miguel / Sanjuán Rodrigo): accident in SS 8
retired (32 - Katsuta Norihiko / Kimura Yusuke): accident in SS 8
flash info (18 - Katsuta Takamoto / Johnston Aaron): The afternoon loop was quite good, but obviously this morning we made a mistake. There's still a long way to go so I will just keep pushing. Tomorrow is still tricky stages and anything can still happen.
flash info (33 - Evans Elfyn / Martin Scott): It didn't feel so great this morning, I felt like was losing a minute, but clearly the others were having similar sensations. It can sometimes happen like that.
flash info (4 - Lappi Esapekka / Ferm Janne): Faster than Ogier two times in a row - at least something good happens this weekend!
flash info (17 - Ogier Sébastien / Landais Vincent): I am glad my mechanics managed to fix the car. They did an amazing job again, so I think now the most important thing for us is to bring all three cars home.
flash info (69 - Rovanperä Kalle / Halttunen Jonne): Not so easy. We were struggling a lot yesterday with the car on this stage, so I was a bit afraid the wet would be bad. We are safely at the end of the day and that's the most important thing.
flash info (8 - Tänak Ott / Järveoja Martin): It should be all okay after service. Everything is now working okay, so we have no worries.
