INFORMATION ABOUT SS 6
flash info (18 - Katsuta Takamoto / Johnston Aaron): For sure, we knew that we had the pace this morning and it's very unfortunate happened. It's done, so now we just have to move forward and do what we can. This one didn't feel so good but the stage time is good.
flash info (4 - Lappi Esapekka / Ferm Janne): We tried. For sure, we tried to improve. It's quite embarrassing where we are but it is how it is.
flash info (17 - Ogier Sébastien / Landais Vincent): For sure, we lost too much time this morning. After seeing Thierry off the road, we knew we didn't have to push so hard.
flash info (8 - Tänak Ott / Järveoja Martin): The car is struggling. We will try to get through but it's not really working.
flash info (33 - Evans Elfyn / Martin Scott): That's a shame. It's difficult out there, but this stage did definitely feel better. We have to keep going. There's still a long way to go.
flash info (69 - Rovanperä Kalle / Halttunen Jonne): On the first pass, the conditions were so bad being the first car on the road and doing half of the stage with no visibility. We had a safe and clean run through.
retired (11 - Neuville Thierry / Wydaeghe Martijn): accident in SS 6
