INFORMATION ABOUT SS 16
retired (44 - Rosati Frédéric / Marchetto Philippe): retired after SS 16
retired (7 - Loubet Pierre-Louis / Gilsoul Nicolas): technical problem - water leak after SS 16
(22 - Lefebvre Stéphane / Malfoy Andy): puncture
flash info (34 - López José María / Rozada Borja): I can not push and I had some big moments. I have to understand something and try to improve for the second pass.
flash info (21 - Rossel Yohan / Dunand Arnaud): I am pushing. The feeling is not bad but I think it's very hard for the tyres in this stage. We will see on the next one - I think Gryazin has just five tyres and I have six.
flash info (24 - Gryazin Nikolay / Aleksandrov Konstantin): For sure there is some pressure but we are just managing it. It's difficult, I think the French guys know the roads better but I am trying to drive to the pace notes. Of course, yesterday's puncture is not helping me.
flash info (17 - Ogier Sébastien / Landais Vincent): So far, so good. Incredible tyre wear already this morning so in there we tried to drive clean and save the tyres.
flash info (69 - Rovanperä Kalle / Halttunen Jonne): It's definitely a big difference when the road is clean from the salt. I think earlier in the rally we were losing a lot more time with cleaning the road. Now it's a lot more fun.
flash info (11 - Neuville Thierry / Wydaeghe Martijn): It was okay, a clean and smooth stage for us. I think Elfyn is already managing his tyres but we had a clean run through with no sliding at all.
flash info (33 - Evans Elfyn / Martin Scott): At the tight hairpin it was as if something had broken for a split-second. I came off the throttle and it spun completely around - it took me completely by surprise and I had to stop and reverse. I took it a bit easy then for the rest of the way up.
(33 - Evans Elfyn / Martin Scott): spun
flash info (8 - Tänak Ott / Järveoja Martin): It's difficult to say at the moment but we will try for sure. It's quite hard for the tyres so [the power stage] will be challenging for sure.
flash info (18 - Katsuta Takamoto / Johnston Aaron): It's so slippy, I don't know why. Even more slippy than Thursday night. It was enjoyable but quite scary.
flash info (6 - Sordo Dani / Carrera Cándido): The hybrid is not working and it's all uphill, so you can imagine what it's like with 100 horsepower less. We need to finish like this and then that's it.
flash info (4 - Lappi Esapekka / Ferm Janne): We needed to save the tyres. It's interesting why I don't feel so good today. We made some changes but it shouldn't be that big of a difference. We need to analyse it.
flash info (9 - Serderidis Jourdan / Miclotte Fréderic): One minute better than Thursday! I was starting to lose the tyres and with the salt the grip is a little bit less, but it's still enjoyable.
flash info (7 - Loubet Pierre-Louis / Gilsoul Nicolas): We did a much better time than on Thursday night so let's see what we can do for the Power Stage. My engineer found this issue with the handbrake, so good job to him.
