22. 01. 2023 13:18 CET 18 flash info (17 - Ogier Sébastien / Landais Vincent): It's huge. I love this rally, it's the one which gave me the dream right at the beginning and I am so happy for Vincent: for me it's nice, but for him it's a dream to take his first win. We still need to enjoy these moments and that's why we are still here [in the WRC], to catch some victories like this. To win a famous one like Monte has no price.
22. 01. 2023 13:14 CET 18 flash info (69 - Rovanperä Kalle / Halttunen Jonne): It was a good one. I think we can be quite happy with second place. There was much more cleaning than I expected on Thursday and Friday, and it seems when we were in the same conditions as everyone we had the same pace as everyone else.
22. 01. 2023 13:10 CET 18 flash info (11 - Neuville Thierry / Wydaeghe Martijn): I gave it everything in there but we had so much tyre wear compared to the other all weekend and we are missing speed. Even if we are taking risks at some points, we can't match the others. We had to be sensible this weekend - we kept the car on the road and brought it back. Now we're looking forward to Sweden.
22. 01. 2023 13:09 CET 18 flash info (33 - Evans Elfyn / Martin Scott): I didn't have the best feeling. The tyres were moving quite early on, but other than that it was quite okay. It's been a pretty good weekend in terms of pace. Obviously the disappointment on Friday put us out of contention for the podium, but that's rallying and that's how it goes.
22. 01. 2023 13:09 CET 18 flash info (8 - Tänak Ott / Järveoja Martin): It's the first stage I have tried to drive fast! We were very stupid on the previous one and we had to push on this one. I wouldn't say it was a great stage, we had a lot of understeer so I struggled with that, but we are here. It's a long season but it's a positive start - at least we have scored some points already not like the previous three years.
22. 01. 2023 13:02 CET 18 flash info (18 - Katsuta Takamoto / Johnston Aaron): I have no idea. After a tight corner something broke straight away, like the car was washing out into the mountain. We were very lucky it was not in a fast section. After that we hit the rear and we were able to continue but we couldn't open the throttle because there was something wrong with the car.
22. 01. 2023 13:00 CET 18 (18 - Katsuta Takamoto / Johnston Aaron): damaged suspension
22. 01. 2023 13:00 CET 18 flash info (6 - Sordo Dani / Carrera Cándido): We had a lot of problems with the hybrid but I am sure the guys did everything they could to give me the best car. I am disappointed to have these small problems but I am sure they will find something and it will not happen again.
22. 01. 2023 12:59 CET 18 flash info (4 - Lappi Esapekka / Ferm Janne): At least we did all the mileage and we understood a lot about this car, which is very important for Croatia. I am quite disappointed with my performance but the only way is to improve and try to be better on the next one.
22. 01. 2023 12:59 CET 18 flash info (9 - Serderidis Jourdan / Miclotte Fréderic): I must say this was probably the most easy one - a pure dry asphalt rally, but I liked it very much.
22. 01. 2023 12:58 CET 18 flash info (24 - Gryazin Nikolay / Aleksandrov Konstantin): The last stage was so difficult. The front tyres were completely dead and I understeered a lot, but I just tried to keep it on the line.
22. 01. 2023 12:58 CET 18 flash info (21 - Rossel Yohan / Dunand Arnaud): I pushed to the limit all weekend. The car is not easy to drive but I am here and if I finish second it's not bad for the championship. We didn't make any mistakes all weekend and I drove a bit cautiously when the puncture risk was high. We will see.
22. 01. 2023 12:36 CET 18 flash info (34 - López José María / Rozada Borja): I am very happy with what we've done but a bit disappointed because we had some fuel pump problems on Saturday and Sunday, so we had to put a bit more weight in the car. Let's try to do another rally like that.
22. 01. 2023 12:33 CET 18 flash info (27 - Cais Erik / Těšínský Petr): It was amazing. I need to say thank you to my team because they prepared the car and it was so incredible. The weekend was perfect and we did a really nice job.
22. 01. 2023 12:04 CET 17 flash info (17 - Ogier Sébastien / Landais Vincent): Of course, for me, only the win matters. The Power Stage is not important but I will still try to catch some points for the team because every point is counting at the end of the year.
22. 01. 2023 12:04 CET 17 flash info (69 - Rovanperä Kalle / Halttunen Jonne): We are also saving the tyres quite a lot and we should have quite a good package for the Power Stage.
22. 01. 2023 12:04 CET 17 flash info (11 - Neuville Thierry / Wydaeghe Martijn): We are just managing the tyres and trying to get through to keep some good tyres for the Power Stage. We'll see if we can get some extra points.
22. 01. 2023 12:04 CET 17 flash info (33 - Evans Elfyn / Martin Scott): It's been really close among the frontrunners so we have to see what's possible. It's really hard on the tyres in here even though we were careful.
22. 01. 2023 12:04 CET 17 flash info (8 - Tänak Ott / Järveoja Martin): It's all up to us now.
22. 01. 2023 12:03 CET 17 flash info (18 - Katsuta Takamoto / Johnston Aaron): I just wanted to feel how the car is working and it's obviously better than this morning. I will try to do maximum push in the next one - I don't know how much I can do but I'll try.
22. 01. 2023 12:03 CET 17 flash info (6 - Sordo Dani / Carrera Cándido): I tried but it's difficult with the [hybrid] problems. I really enjoyed this stage even without the extra power, it's so nice.
22. 01. 2023 12:03 CET 17 flash info (4 - Lappi Esapekka / Ferm Janne): I feel a bit better now. We need to manage the tyres but I think we did a good stage. It seems it's just not my weekend.
22. 01. 2023 12:02 CET 17 flash info (9 - Serderidis Jourdan / Miclotte Fréderic): It was great. I did some mistakes in the first hairpins but I was starting to understand. It's nearly the end of the rally but we are still improving.
22. 01. 2023 13:07 CET 16 retired (44 - Rosati Frédéric / Marchetto Philippe): retired after SS 16
22. 01. 2023 12:01 CET 16 retired (7 - Loubet Pierre-Louis / Gilsoul Nicolas): technical problem - water leak after SS 16
22. 01. 2023 09:54 CET 16 (22 - Lefebvre Stéphane / Malfoy Andy): puncture
22. 01. 2023 09:53 CET 16 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.
22. 01. 2023 09:53 CET 16 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.
22. 01. 2023 09:53 CET 16 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.
22. 01. 2023 09:46 CET 16 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.
22. 01. 2023 09:44 CET 16 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.
22. 01. 2023 09:40 CET 16 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.
22. 01. 2023 09:38 CET 16 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.
22. 01. 2023 09:38 CET 16 (33 - Evans Elfyn / Martin Scott): spun
22. 01. 2023 09:35 CET 16 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.
22. 01. 2023 09:34 CET 16 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.
22. 01. 2023 09:33 CET 16 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.
22. 01. 2023 09:33 CET 16 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.
22. 01. 2023 09:33 CET 16 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.
22. 01. 2023 09:32 CET 16 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.
22. 01. 2023 12:01 CET 15 retired (29 - Johnston Sean / Kihurani Alexander): accident in SS 15
22. 01. 2023 09:05 CET 15 flash info (17 - Ogier Sébastien / Landais Vincent): Yesterday night it looked like people were in doubt, but so far I am controlling my risks. It's very precise driving required between the monutains and stones, but at least no cuts where there is a risk of punctures.
22. 01. 2023 09:04 CET 15 flash info (69 - Rovanperä Kalle / Halttunen Jonne): I am not fully happy. I did this stage last year and I was not on the pace, so for sure it was not easy now to step up. It's going to be a long day for the tyres as well. I just tried to keep a good and safe pace.
22. 01. 2023 09:04 CET 15 flash info (11 - Neuville Thierry / Wydaeghe Martijn): We had a spin on the first corner and something is wrong with the hybrid. There's a confusion on the maps.
22. 01. 2023 09:04 CET 15 (11 - Neuville Thierry / Wydaeghe Martijn): spun
22. 01. 2023 09:04 CET 15 flash info (33 - Evans Elfyn / Martin Scott): I'm focusing on my own performance really. We're just trying to do what we can and we'll see what happens.
22. 01. 2023 09:03 CET 15 flash info (8 - Tänak Ott / Järveoja Martin): I am just getting through at the moment. It's very tough for the tyres.
22. 01. 2023 09:03 CET 15 flash info (18 - Katsuta Takamoto / Johnston Aaron): The feeling is okay. I am trying to manage my tyres a bit and let's see what we can do in the next three stages.
22. 01. 2023 08:22 CET 15 flash info (6 - Sordo Dani / Carrera Cándido): It was not my fault with jump start. They need to check the cameras because it was not my fault. I did not know what time I needed to go.
22. 01. 2023 08:21 CET 15 flash info (4 - Lappi Esapekka / Ferm Janne): I have no confidence, I don't know why. I can't push like yesterday, it's just not possible.
22. 01. 2023 08:21 CET 15 flash info (9 - Serderidis Jourdan / Miclotte Fréderic): In the uphill there are a lot of hairpins with maximum power, and the downhill is a little bit like yesterday morning. Very dry, no cuts, no pollution - just enjoy!
22. 01. 2023 08:21 CET 15 flash info (7 - Loubet Pierre-Louis / Gilsoul Nicolas): We drove very slowly to keep the tyres for the power stage. We don't have any handbrake but we will try to do our best. I think we will have to reverse in the Turini at least one time for sure.
22. 01. 2023 08:20 CET 15 Today stages are completely dry.
22. 01. 2023 08:11 CET 15 retired (42 - Boland Eamonn / "MJ" ..): retired before SS 15
22. 01. 2023 21:37 CET 14 (24 - Gryazin Nikolay / Aleksandrov Konstantin): 5 second penalty for cutting the corner after protest by PH Sport
22. 01. 2023 06:52 CET 14 retired (32 - Creighton William / Regan Liam): retired in SS 14
21. 01. 2023 19:37 CET 14 (26 - Bulacia Marco / Coronado Axel): puncture
21. 01. 2023 19:23 CET 14 flash info (21 - Rossel Yohan / Dunand Arnaud): I am sorry for him. We will see tomorrow, but at the moment he is faster than me. The plan is to do no mistakes, continue to keep the pressure and we will see. Tomorrow is a long day and I know the roads very well.
21. 01. 2023 19:23 CET 14 flash info (24 - Gryazin Nikolay / Aleksandrov Konstantin): I had a front puncture... I think we had it for seven or eight kms in the end. I was trying to avoid all the cuts and we still got it. Unbelievable.
21. 01. 2023 19:22 CET 14 (24 - Gryazin Nikolay / Aleksandrov Konstantin): puncture
21. 01. 2023 19:22 CET 14 flash info (17 - Ogier Sébastien / Landais Vincent): I think it should be enough. It was the most dangerous stage for punctures, so I took it easy and I am happy this stage is over now.
21. 01. 2023 19:22 CET 14 flash info (11 - Neuville Thierry / Wydaeghe Martijn): I struggled in some of the fast sections - but I couldn't do much more in there.
21. 01. 2023 19:21 CET 14 flash info (6 - Sordo Dani / Carrera Cándido): I just tried to pass through the stage because all day we have been really bad. There is no point risking anything now in the night.
21. 01. 2023 19:21 CET 14 flash info (18 - Katsuta Takamoto / Johnston Aaron): It's been rally challenging, especially this night stage. You can not see some of the corners and also you can not see how much gravel is coming on the road. We survived.
21. 01. 2023 19:21 CET 14 flash info (4 - Lappi Esapekka / Ferm Janne): Today has been a good day. We improved the car a lot and it feels better for me now. At least now I am satisified, this is good.
21. 01. 2023 19:19 CET 14 flash info (9 - Serderidis Jourdan / Miclotte Fréderic): A lot of people in there! It was nice, very dry like all day. On the fast sections I couldn't see anything and it was even better than in the lights. I am happy!
22. 01. 2023 06:51 CET 13 retired (60 - Tanci Pierre / Malet Sébastien): retired after SS 13
22. 01. 2023 06:51 CET 13 retired (44 - Rosati Frédéric / Marchetto Philippe): retired after SS 13
21. 01. 2023 18:15 CET 13 retired (71 - Baugé Baudouin / Blanc Nicolas): retired in SS 13
21. 01. 2023 18:12 CET 13 flash info (17 - Ogier Sébastien / Landais Vincent): It was quite dirty now, but all okay. We had a clean drive and a clean stage.
21. 01. 2023 18:12 CET 13 flash info (69 - Rovanperä Kalle / Halttunen Jonne): I am quite close to the limit. When there is more dirt on the road the car is not so easy to drive, but when it's clean I am fine.
21. 01. 2023 18:12 CET 13 flash info (11 - Neuville Thierry / Wydaeghe Martijn): We had a good stage but we had a huge jump and I feel a bit of back pain. We are here and we took a bit of time from Elfyn so it's not too bad. We were a bit on the limit and over the limit a few times.
21. 01. 2023 18:11 CET 13 flash info (8 - Tänak Ott / Järveoja Martin): It was quite dirty. It's a difficult stage for me - this is the worst stage for the power steering. The next one is a bit faster so it should be better.
21. 01. 2023 18:11 CET 13 flash info (33 - Evans Elfyn / Martin Scott): I'm not sure if I improved to be honest. There's quite a lot of loose gravel lines and it's difficult to fine the balance with the risk. It's all happening pretty quick.
21. 01. 2023 18:11 CET 13 flash info (6 - Sordo Dani / Carrera Cándido): I don't know. I can't do better. I tried my best but it's not enough. I have no idea.
21. 01. 2023 18:11 CET 13 flash info (18 - Katsuta Takamoto / Johnston Aaron): At the end of the stage, maybe three times I was off the line. Not a big moment but I had understeer.
21. 01. 2023 18:10 CET 13 flash info (9 - Serderidis Jourdan / Miclotte Fréderic): It's completely different to the first pass. Much more difficult from my point of view. There will be things happening in there - it's very dirty.
21. 01. 2023 18:10 CET 12 flash info (17 - Ogier Sébastien / Landais Vincent): The strategy doesn't change for me at the moment. I try to be as clean as I can.
21. 01. 2023 18:10 CET 12 flash info (69 - Rovanperä Kalle / Halttunen Jonne): I had a small slide in there.
21. 01. 2023 18:09 CET 12 flash info (11 - Neuville Thierry / Wydaeghe Martijn): It was okay. We had a good rhythm to be honest but in the fast corners I have no lateral grip and I am just sliding. In the narrow sections we are fine.
21. 01. 2023 18:09 CET 12 flash info (8 - Tänak Ott / Järveoja Martin): The power steering issue seems also a bit temperature-related. When it gets twisty and in the last kilometres it's hard. But in the fast parts and straights it's not so bad.
21. 01. 2023 18:09 CET 12 flash info (33 - Evans Elfyn / Martin Scott): Just keep going really. It was very tricky in here with quite a lot of gravel. There was a section in the middle that seemed really low grip and I sort of lost my confidence in the grip for a while.
21. 01. 2023 18:09 CET 12 flash info (6 - Sordo Dani / Carrera Cándido): Sometimes the hybrid unit is working, sometimes it's not working. It's something really weird. Anyway, we need to get through the day and try to do something tomorrow because today obviously we are not on the pace.
21. 01. 2023 18:08 CET 12 flash info (18 - Katsuta Takamoto / Johnston Aaron): I am just focusing on my own things. This morning I had no pace, so I need to improve some stuff. In this stage my driving was so bad - I'm really not happy.
21. 01. 2023 18:08 CET 12 flash info (4 - Lappi Esapekka / Ferm Janne): For sure, there are some sharp rocks in the cuts. It must have been there, otherwise I have no idea.
21. 01. 2023 18:08 CET 12 (4 - Lappi Esapekka / Ferm Janne): puncture
21. 01. 2023 18:07 CET 12 flash info (9 - Serderidis Jourdan / Miclotte Fréderic): A little bit more pollution but I think it's enjoyable. We changed the set-up a little bit and it's improving. All good fun.
24. 01. 2023 22:11 CET 11 (32 - Creighton William / Regan Liam): puncture
21. 01. 2023 18:15 CET 11 retired (63 - Frau Richard / Marquez Stéphane): accident in SS 11
21. 01. 2023 18:07 CET 11 (23 - Solberg Oliver / Edmondson Elliott): was out of road, damaged suspension
21. 01. 2023 18:06 CET 11 flash info (17 - Ogier Sébastien / Landais Vincent): Since this morning, the target is to try to stay safe. There is a lot of cuts with a high risk of punctures so I took it easy.
21. 01. 2023 18:06 CET 11 flash info (69 - Rovanperä Kalle / Halttunen Jonne): The morning has been fine. On this stage I overheated the tyres too much at the start of the stage and in the beginning it was really slippy.
21. 01. 2023 18:06 CET 11 flash info (11 - Neuville Thierry / Wydaeghe Martijn): The car was bouncing around all the way. Too much movement and no reactivity. I pushed as hard as I could but I am not comfortable.
21. 01. 2023 18:06 CET 11 flash info (8 - Tänak Ott / Järveoja Martin): It's still here. It's an internal issue but it's consistent. It's a bit hard work but it's driveable.
21. 01. 2023 18:05 CET 11 flash info (33 - Evans Elfyn / Martin Scott): It's not too bad. A tricky start obviously with [that section] being new, but all okay.
21. 01. 2023 18:05 CET 11 flash info (6 - Sordo Dani / Carrera Cándido): I have no hybrid in the car but that's not the problem. My problem is between the steering wheel and the seat! I am struggling a little bit to find the speed in the corners.
21. 01. 2023 18:05 CET 11 flash info (18 - Katsuta Takamoto / Johnston Aaron): It's tricky and actually quite slippy at the beginning. I was not so confident in this stage so I will try to fix that for the next loop.
21. 01. 2023 18:04 CET 11 flash info (4 - Lappi Esapekka / Ferm Janne): I took it too carefully. It was not as bad as we thought after recce, but let's see how the time is. We made some changes again but maybe we went too far now. At least we found the limits.
21. 01. 2023 18:14 CET 10 retired (31 - McErlean Joshua / Rowan John): retired in SS 10
21. 01. 2023 18:04 CET 10 flash info (17 - Ogier Sébastien / Landais Vincent): It's a beautiful stage - for me one of the most beuatiful of the rally. We had fun and there was a good rhythm. I took it a bit less in places where I thought there was a risk of punctures, but all good.
21. 01. 2023 18:04 CET 10 flash info (69 - Rovanperä Kalle / Halttunen Jonne): The beginning was quite good but on the middle section it was already quite dirty from the cuts. Not so easy, I was sliding a bit in places.
21. 01. 2023 18:04 CET 10 flash info (11 - Neuville Thierry / Wydaeghe Martijn): We had a good stage. It was quite tricky and a bit dirty. Not an easy one.
21. 01. 2023 18:03 CET 10 flash info (8 - Tänak Ott / Järveoja Martin): I I have no power steering. After 3km it started to go and now it's gone.
21. 01. 2023 18:03 CET 10 (8 - Tänak Ott / Järveoja Martin): problems with power steering
21. 01. 2023 18:03 CET 10 flash info (33 - Evans Elfyn / Martin Scott): I'm trying not to be on the ragged edge, I'm trying to be smooth - it's pretty abrasive. It was a clean run.
21. 01. 2023 18:02 CET 10 flash info (6 - Sordo Dani / Carrera Cándido): On the first stage I did really bad. In this stage at the beginning I did bad, but at the end I was trying to do well. Sometimes the feeling is good but the times are normally not so good here now. Let's keep trying and bring the car back.
21. 01. 2023 18:02 CET 10 flash info (18 - Katsuta Takamoto / Johnston Aaron): You never know how much gravel is coming from the inside, so maybe I was a bit cautious at the end. It's enjoyable but it's not so comfortable.
21. 01. 2023 18:02 CET 10 flash info (4 - Lappi Esapekka / Ferm Janne): I think we should have stiffened the car for this stage. It's high grip with a lot of small bumps here and there - at least we know for the next loop. Everything is good, so much better than yesterday.
21. 01. 2023 18:02 CET 10 flash info (9 - Serderidis Jourdan / Miclotte Fréderic): The grip is fantastic and the stage is long with a lot of twisty parts at the end. It was nice, really nice.
21. 01. 2023 18:14 CET 9 Stage was cancelled.
21. 01. 2023 18:13 CET 9 Stage was stopped because of fire of st.no.51.
21. 01. 2023 18:13 CET 9 retired (51 - Hirschi Jonathan / Volluz Michaël): fire in SS 9
21. 01. 2023 18:01 CET 9 flash info (24 - Gryazin Nikolay / Aleksandrov Konstantin): It's good. I like the car today, it feels different and much easier to drive. I don't know if the tyres overheated in the last part because there's less grip. There's still a long way to go but we are trying to enjoy and do our job.
21. 01. 2023 18:01 CET 9 flash info (17 - Ogier Sébastien / Landais Vincent): We tried to drive safely. It was definitely not full speed for us at the moment but we want to stay safe.
21. 01. 2023 18:01 CET 9 flash info (69 - Rovanperä Kalle / Halttunen Jonne): It was not a good stage for me, I could have done better. It was clean but it was not the driving that I want to do.
21. 01. 2023 18:00 CET 9 flash info (11 - Neuville Thierry / Wydaeghe Martijn): It was a bit dirty and I was less quick than I expected to be. I had a couple of small sides. We did some set-up changes overnight and it takes time to get used to it. I lost some time but at the end it was feeling better.
21. 01. 2023 18:00 CET 9 flash info (8 - Tänak Ott / Järveoja Martin): Let's see we are moving with the car and trying to find a bit more. Hopefully it's coming today a bit more.
21. 01. 2023 18:00 CET 9 flash info (33 - Evans Elfyn / Martin Scott): Pretty okay but a pretty tricky stage. The grip is changing a bit, especially here at the end. All okay.
21. 01. 2023 18:00 CET 9 flash info (6 - Sordo Dani / Carrera Cándido): I am not on the pace. I felt like I was not doing good in the stage so I expected this time.
21. 01. 2023 17:59 CET 9 flash info (18 - Katsuta Takamoto / Johnston Aaron): I am just trying to do my best today but this one is very cold temperature. My gravel crew did a really good job but the end of the stage is definitely quite slippy, maybe the salt or something. All okay.
21. 01. 2023 17:59 CET 9 flash info (4 - Lappi Esapekka / Ferm Janne): It's definitely feeling better than yesterday. I still don't believe the time is fast enough but we are going in the right direction. For sure the car feels the best it has done so far this weekend.
21. 01. 2023 17:59 CET 9 retired (7 - Loubet Pierre-Louis / Gilsoul Nicolas): broken wheel after SS 9
21. 01. 2023 17:58 CET 9 flash info (7 - Loubet Pierre-Louis / Gilsoul Nicolas): It was icy...
21. 01. 2023 17:57 CET 9 (7 - Loubet Pierre-Louis / Gilsoul Nicolas): hit the bridge in last corner, damaged wheel
21. 01. 2023 17:57 CET 9 flash info (9 - Serderidis Jourdan / Miclotte Fréderic): It's totally dry, no pollution. Maximum attack... for the people behind me! It was a good run, no problem.
21. 01. 2023 17:55 CET 9 All today stages are dry.
21. 01. 2023 07:10 CET 8 flash info (21 - Rossel Yohan / Dunand Arnaud): It's quite good to bid for the podium, but I think for the victory it's complicated. For me, my driving is not bad and the car also feels good. We will see tomorrow.
21. 01. 2023 07:10 CET 8 flash info (22 - Lefebvre Stéphane / Malfoy Andy): It's impossible to take this pace during the whole rally. I tried to push hard and I think we are missing something, but now I understand the rhythm that I need to be on this weekend.
21. 01. 2023 07:10 CET 8 flash info (24 - Gryazin Nikolay / Aleksandrov Konstantin): I think the car, the set-up and the pace notes are now working good. It seems that finally everything is coming together in one piece.
21. 01. 2023 07:09 CET 8 flash info (9 - Serderidis Jourdan / Miclotte Fréderic): "It was a long day, but all okay. We had a lot of fun and that's why we are here.
21. 01. 2023 07:09 CET 8 flash info (7 - Loubet Pierre-Louis / Gilsoul Nicolas): If you want to train to do something very hard, you should drive a car with no power steering. It's quite good!
21. 01. 2023 07:09 CET 8 flash info (4 - Lappi Esapekka / Ferm Janne): It's been very challenging to really figure out what I should do differently to make better times. This stage seems to be better for me in general, but on all the other stages we are losing even more. I need to think again during the night about what we can do with the engineers. Tomorrow is a new day.
21. 01. 2023 07:09 CET 8 flash info (6 - Sordo Dani / Carrera Cándido): The feeling is not bad but the times are not good. We are losing the same amount of time all the time. The car was too soft in here and we were bottoming out all over the road. I don't have the precision that I really need so I will try to do something different for tomorrow.
21. 01. 2023 07:08 CET 8 flash info (17 - Ogier Sébastien / Landais Vincent): I am very satisfied. Obviously, the risk of punctures was higher in this one so I took it a bit easy. I'm just happy to bring the car home tonight.
21. 01. 2023 07:08 CET 8 flash info (18 - Katsuta Takamoto / Johnston Aaron): It's been quite a good day and we need to bring this feeling into tomorrow. There is still a long way to go so I need to keep improving and finish the rally.
21. 01. 2023 07:08 CET 8 flash info (33 - Evans Elfyn / Martin Scott): The tyre choice was maybe not the smartest and I didn't feel so comfortable. It's been an okay day but obviously there's a lot of disappointment.
21. 01. 2023 07:08 CET 8 flash info (11 - Neuville Thierry / Wydaeghe Martijn): It was another good stage but obviously we can't match the times, I don't know why. I am trying hard and now we have similar tyre choices. I know that we should be up but we are not.
21. 01. 2023 07:08 CET 8 flash info (8 - Tänak Ott / Järveoja Martin): Quite a Tarmac rally which we don't normally see in Monte. From our side, the car is quite comfortable to drive but it's not, let's say, racey enough.
21. 01. 2023 07:07 CET 8 flash info (69 - Rovanperä Kalle / Halttunen Jonne): It was not a big push, I just tried to make a clean stage. The car was feeling better than this morning also. Let's see how they are coming.
21. 01. 2023 07:17 CET 7 retired (48 - Arengi Bentivoglio Fabrizio / Bosi Massimiliano): technical problem in SS 7
21. 01. 2023 07:07 CET 7 (27 - Cais Erik / Těšínský Petr): 2x spun
21. 01. 2023 07:07 CET 7 flash info (9 - Serderidis Jourdan / Miclotte Fréderic): I like it very much but I think our time is worse than on the first pass, I don't know why. Maybe it's because of the pollution from the cuts. It's still a very nice stage.
21. 01. 2023 07:06 CET 7 flash info (7 - Loubet Pierre-Louis / Gilsoul Nicolas): Still one to go. I have to go.
21. 01. 2023 07:06 CET 7 flash info (4 - Lappi Esapekka / Ferm Janne): Everything is okay now, except the times. I just can't understand because the car feels good and the driving is okay. I am disappointed.
21. 01. 2023 07:06 CET 7 flash info (6 - Sordo Dani / Carrera Cándido): I don't know... I don't have a bad feeling but honestly I don't know what to say. I don't understand the times because the car feels good.
21. 01. 2023 07:06 CET 7 flash info (17 - Ogier Sébastien / Landais Vincent): It's better with the hybrid for sure. I can focus on driving a bit more cleanly without taking any crazy risks. It was a good stage.
21. 01. 2023 07:05 CET 7 flash info (18 - Katsuta Takamoto / Johnston Aaron): It's quite wide and high-speed, I really like it because you can take the line how you want.
21. 01. 2023 07:05 CET 7 flash info (33 - Evans Elfyn / Martin Scott): Pretty okay to be honest. We're just carrying on, all okay so far.
21. 01. 2023 07:05 CET 7 flash info (11 - Neuville Thierry / Wydaeghe Martijn): I was quite on the maximum to be honest... that's all I can do.
21. 01. 2023 07:05 CET 7 flash info (8 - Tänak Ott / Järveoja Martin): We just need to be consistent. Generally the performance is missing a bit when it's a bit more pacey.
21. 01. 2023 07:04 CET 7 flash info (69 - Rovanperä Kalle / Halttunen Jonne): It's much easier than the first pass. The line is much cleaner from the salt but for some reason I feel that in this stage it's a bit tricky with the grip in the last section. I was sliding a lot.
21. 01. 2023 07:17 CET 6 retired (77 - Marazzato Giorgio / Sommariva Elisa): technical problem after SS 6
21. 01. 2023 07:04 CET 6 flash info (28 - Ingram Chris / Drew Craig): The pace has been really quick but I'm still feeling a bit rusty. Everything's happening so fast - I'm not quite as sharp as I usually am at the moment. It'll come good.
21. 01. 2023 07:04 CET 6 flash info (20 - Fourmaux Adrien / Coria Alexandre): I am really happy because I did a really good stage. I was pushing but it was really clean and I kept the tyres for the whole stage.
21. 01. 2023 07:04 CET 6 flash info (34 - López José María / Rozada Borja): I am more comfortable now. Let's try to push again.
21. 01. 2023 07:03 CET 6 flash info (21 - Rossel Yohan / Dunand Arnaud): My feeling is good, the same as this morning. Gryazin is so fast. I have just two new tyres on the front. I think it's not bad but I can't do more.
21. 01. 2023 07:03 CET 6 flash info (22 - Lefebvre Stéphane / Malfoy Andy): I think Nikolay is pushing very hard. I tried to push very hard but we are missing something for sure.
21. 01. 2023 07:03 CET 6 flash info (24 - Gryazin Nikolay / Aleksandrov Konstantin): It's a little bit risky, but not really a lot. In some places where you can go off there is a little bit of cautious, but the rhythm is good.
21. 01. 2023 07:03 CET 6 flash info (9 - Serderidis Jourdan / Miclotte Fréderic): I improved only a little bit. I was not so confident after the first loop, I don't know why, but the grip was a little bit better.
21. 01. 2023 07:03 CET 6 flash info (7 - Loubet Pierre-Louis / Gilsoul Nicolas): It's difficult but we have to manage to finish the stages and not give up. It's not easy.
21. 01. 2023 07:02 CET 6 flash info (4 - Lappi Esapekka / Ferm Janne): The car is feeling better and better all the time.
21. 01. 2023 07:02 CET 6 flash info (6 - Sordo Dani / Carrera Cándido): I don't understand where I can get the time. For me it was a clean run, but when you see the times of the others they are all faster. I think we had some good tyres now and the car was working well. I am a little bit confused.
21. 01. 2023 07:02 CET 6 flash info (17 - Ogier Sébastien / Landais Vincent): So far the hybrid is working - the guys managed to fix it with the laptop at midday. We have a 30sec lead so we can manage not to take full risks.
21. 01. 2023 07:02 CET 6 flash info (18 - Katsuta Takamoto / Johnston Aaron): I was more confident with the conditions and I was trying to take some risks. I don't know why but there is some sort of vibration. Apart from this everything is working well.
21. 01. 2023 07:01 CET 6 flash info (33 - Evans Elfyn / Martin Scott): Nothing's changed really. I'm obviously disappointed with what happened but we'll keep going. All okay.
21. 01. 2023 07:01 CET 6 flash info (11 - Neuville Thierry / Wydaeghe Martijn): I tried to drive as cleanly as possible and do what I can. It looks like it's not enough but at the moment it's difficult to do much more.
21. 01. 2023 07:01 CET 6 flash info (8 - Tänak Ott / Järveoja Martin): It feels okay, let's see at the end of this loop. For sure, there was much higher grip and it's not so bad.
21. 01. 2023 07:00 CET 6 flash info (69 - Rovanperä Kalle / Halttunen Jonne): Quite okay but nothing too special. We will try to be a bit better in this loop now and hopefully have some better times.
21. 01. 2023 07:16 CET 5 retired (44 - Rosati Frédéric / Marchetto Philippe): technical problem after SS 5
21. 01. 2023 07:00 CET 5 flash info (9 - Serderidis Jourdan / Miclotte Fréderic): This stage is more difficult with more pollution than the other ones. Okay, it was not so bad and we enjoyed the morning much more than yesterday.
21. 01. 2023 07:00 CET 5 flash info (7 - Loubet Pierre-Louis / Gilsoul Nicolas): Under braking, the car wouldn't turn at all. I don't know.
21. 01. 2023 07:00 CET 5 flash info (4 - Lappi Esapekka / Ferm Janne): It's been the same challenges as yesterday. I am a bit too slow everywhere to be honest. We made a big step with the car's suspension and I think we moved in a better direction on this stage, but still I want to make it even better.
21. 01. 2023 06:59 CET 5 (7 - Loubet Pierre-Louis / Gilsoul Nicolas): no power steering after hitting a rock earlier in the stage
21. 01. 2023 06:59 CET 5 flash info (6 - Sordo Dani / Carrera Cándido): Very bad. I am just really slow in general and we are losing the same [amount of] time all the time. I don't why, maybe there's still not a lot of confidence or something.
21. 01. 2023 06:59 CET 5 flash info (17 - Ogier Sébastien / Landais Vincent): Of course I am pushing flat-out to be honest but the feeling is good. Apart from that the car is working well.
21. 01. 2023 06:59 CET 5 flash info (18 - Katsuta Takamoto / Johnston Aaron): Luckily we found a slow puncture after the last stage so we fitted a new tyre on time. The feeling was very good with the car and everything was working well.
21. 01. 2023 06:59 CET 5 flash info (33 - Evans Elfyn / Martin Scott): I have no idea. It was at the top of a very fast place. Just a warning on the dash - that's all I got.
21. 01. 2023 06:58 CET 5 (33 - Evans Elfyn / Martin Scott): puncture
21. 01. 2023 06:58 CET 5 flash info (11 - Neuville Thierry / Wydaeghe Martijn): It was not very fun to be honest. The tyres are really on the edge and they overheated after 2km of the stage. I am just trying to follow the road and manage the braking points but it's not so much fun.
21. 01. 2023 06:58 CET 5 flash info (8 - Tänak Ott / Järveoja Martin): No issues, I am just struggling quite a bit. It's tricky.
21. 01. 2023 06:58 CET 5 flash info (69 - Rovanperä Kalle / Halttunen Jonne): It was the first real braking section of the stage. I had less grip than I expected and I just ran a bit wide. It was quite a tricky loop and I think the tyre choice was not perfect.
21. 01. 2023 06:57 CET 5 (69 - Rovanperä Kalle / Halttunen Jonne): hit armco barrier
21. 01. 2023 07:16 CET 4 retired (62 - Pergola Pierre / Corona Fabrice): accidetn in SS 4
21. 01. 2023 07:16 CET 4 retired (65 - Fontalba Grégory / Hermet Stéphan): accident in SS 4
21. 01. 2023 07:15 CET 4 retired (41 - Alonso Daniel / Pérez Adrián): technica problem - driveshaft after SS 4
21. 01. 2023 07:15 CET 4 retired (38 - Burri Olivier / Levratti Anderson): accident in SS 4
21. 01. 2023 06:43 CET 4 flash info (34 - López José María / Rozada Borja): We are just trying to get through the morning with these super soft tyres.
21. 01. 2023 06:43 CET 4 flash info (21 - Rossel Yohan / Dunand Arnaud): The feeling is not bad. The car is better now - it's much easier to take pleasure on this stage.
21. 01. 2023 06:43 CET 4 flash info (22 - Lefebvre Stéphane / Malfoy Andy): I think this one was quite okay in terms of rhythm. I tried to do well but the time is not there.
21. 01. 2023 06:43 CET 4 flash info (24 - Gryazin Nikolay / Aleksandrov Konstantin): Better, but the tyre is still too soft for this kind of stage. It's cold outside but when you have twisty roads like this they start to overheat. Okay, it's adaptation.
21. 01. 2023 06:42 CET 4 flash info (9 - Serderidis Jourdan / Miclotte Fréderic): I like it from the recce and this is my best stage so far. The road is very clean, no cuts, it's perfect. I am happy.
21. 01. 2023 06:42 CET 4 flash info (7 - Loubet Pierre-Louis / Gilsoul Nicolas): Not an easy one. We had a puncture alarm on the dashboard so I backed off, but I think it was an okay stage.
21. 01. 2023 06:42 CET 4 flash info (4 - Lappi Esapekka / Ferm Janne): For sure there is some dirt coming from the cars, but it's not really damp.
21. 01. 2023 06:42 CET 4 flash info (6 - Sordo Dani / Carrera Cándido): I am not fast enough. The car was floating a little bit and at the end of the stage we lost the grip because the tyres were too hot.
21. 01. 2023 06:41 CET 4 flash info (17 - Ogier Sébastien / Landais Vincent): Not so good. We have an issue and we are driving flat-out to try and compensate for it. No hybrid.
21. 01. 2023 06:41 CET 4 flash info (18 - Katsuta Takamoto / Johnston Aaron): I feel good with the car. After the middle of the stage we started to get some mist on the windscreen so I was maybe not fully focused.
21. 01. 2023 06:41 CET 4 flash info (33 - Evans Elfyn / Martin Scott): Séb's going well at the minute. Everything is working okay for us and we're trying not to do anything crazy, so let's see. There's a long way to go.
21. 01. 2023 06:41 CET 4 flash info (11 - Neuville Thierry / Wydaeghe Martijn): We still have a bit of work left, however I felt a bit more comfortabe in this one. It's a bit more technical but as soon as it's fast and bumpy the car is a bit nervous. We could go faster but the risk would be too high at the moment.
21. 01. 2023 06:40 CET 4 flash info (8 - Tänak Ott / Järveoja Martin): We are trying to learn and see how the car reacts to the changes. Step by step, there is still quite a bit to do.
21. 01. 2023 06:40 CET 4 flash info (69 - Rovanperä Kalle / Halttunen Jonne): Pretty okay. At the beginning I didn't have so much grip - I think there was salt on the road or something. The rest of it was quite okay.
21. 01. 2023 06:40 CET 4 Start of stage was delayed for 5 minutes.
21. 01. 2023 07:14 CET 3 retired (70 - Dal Zotto Grégory / Dubreuil Hervé): retired in SS 3
21. 01. 2023 06:39 CET 3 flash info (27 - Cais Erik / Těšínský Petr): I was probably too careful on the fast sections because I don't know what to expect - it's a new car for me. The feeling is good and the smile is on, let's keep it up that way.
21. 01. 2023 06:39 CET 3 flash info (28 - Ingram Chris / Drew Craig): That's really good. Yesterday I was so rusty - I'd not been in a rally car since I rolled off a cliff in Greece! I think we're doing really well.
21. 01. 2023 06:39 CET 3 flash info (20 - Fourmaux Adrien / Coria Alexandre): It was okay, actually. I pushed very hard on this one but the time is not coming. It's really frustrating but it's like that.
21. 01. 2023 06:38 CET 3 flash info (34 - López José María / Rozada Borja): I think our tyre choice was not correct with soft tyres. We just need to keep going.
21. 01. 2023 06:38 CET 3 flash info (21 - Rossel Yohan / Dunand Arnaud): I pushed very well and the car is not bad, but it's not perfect.
21. 01. 2023 06:38 CET 3 flash info (22 - Lefebvre Stéphane / Malfoy Andy): It was a clean run but it's tricky to find the grip and the confidence. You see some snow on the side of the road and you are a bit surprised sometimes. It's a long rally.
21. 01. 2023 06:38 CET 3 flash info (24 - Gryazin Nikolay / Aleksandrov Konstantin): I am not sure if the tyre choice was good for this stage. We went with the soft tyres and they overheated. Okay, we need to think about the rally and not about each stage.
21. 01. 2023 06:37 CET 3 flash info (9 - Serderidis Jourdan / Miclotte Fréderic): Better with the light! It was more at my level. There is some snow in some corners but nothing bad. From my point-of-view the grip is top.
21. 01. 2023 06:37 CET 3 flash info (7 - Loubet Pierre-Louis / Gilsoul Nicolas): I feel good. The car was working very well but we had a bit of understeer unfortunately, which is not so good for the front tyres. We did a good stage.
21. 01. 2023 06:37 CET 3 flash info (4 - Lappi Esapekka / Ferm Janne): I didn't figure out during the night why I am braking so much all the time. We need to work on that.
21. 01. 2023 06:37 CET 3 flash info (6 - Sordo Dani / Carrera Cándido): It was okay. I had a bit of movement because we have super soft tyres on one side of the car. It was a nice stage - really fast at the end.
21. 01. 2023 06:36 CET 3 flash info (17 - Ogier Sébastien / Landais Vincent): The truth is we don't have so many soft tyres for the rally, so you can not take too many. At the end we do not need to carry one more.
21. 01. 2023 06:36 CET 3 flash info (18 - Katsuta Takamoto / Johnston Aaron): It's okay. I was too careful in the damp sections because I thought there would be ice, but there was no ice.
21. 01. 2023 06:36 CET 3 flash info (33 - Evans Elfyn / Martin Scott): I don't remember what tyres they fitted at the service! It feels okay.
21. 01. 2023 06:36 CET 3 flash info (11 - Neuville Thierry / Wydaeghe Martijn): I was struggling a bit with the turn in and the movement of the car. I took it easy in the fast section because I didn't want to get any surprises, but other than that it was a clean run.
21. 01. 2023 06:35 CET 3 flash info (8 - Tänak Ott / Järveoja Martin): A clean run. It's all we could for the moment and we are trying to keep the good performance. So far so good.
21. 01. 2023 06:35 CET 3 flash info (69 - Rovanperä Kalle / Halttunen Jonne): Pretty clear conditions, nothing special to be honest. We took a bit of a different tyre plan than the others. Let's see how it works on this loop.
21. 01. 2023 06:34 CET 3 Today stages are completely dry.
19. 01. 2023 22:50 CET 2 Stage was cancelled.
19. 01. 2023 22:40 CET 2 Stage was stopped because of fire.
19. 01. 2023 22:10 CET 2 (23 - Solberg Oliver / Edmondson Elliott): puncture
19. 01. 2023 21:54 CET 2 flash info (9 - Serderidis Jourdan / Miclotte Fréderic): I went straight on the black ice. I could not reverse so I lost around one-minute there. But we are still here!
19. 01. 2023 21:54 CET 2 flash info (7 - Loubet Pierre-Louis / Gilsoul Nicolas): I think I was too careful in the difficult part. It's like that. We keep our minds on what we have to do and let's continue. It's not too bad, after two stages in the dark, to be at the end tonight.
19. 01. 2023 21:46 CET 2 flash info (4 - Lappi Esapekka / Ferm Janne): There was some ice and I didn't know where it was. I was driving at walking speed throughout this section. I am not really happy at the moment but when the grip is fine I can push, it's not a problem.
19. 01. 2023 21:45 CET 2 flash info (6 - Sordo Dani / Carrera Cándido): The middle part was very tricky. We had information it was slippery at one point and we slowed down a lot. We will see tomorrow.
19. 01. 2023 21:44 CET 2 (9 - Serderidis Jourdan / Miclotte Fréderic): was out of road
19. 01. 2023 21:44 CET 2 flash info (17 - Ogier Sébastien / Landais Vincent): It's a good start. Not easy - there was almost nothing apart one corner with some black ice. At least for once we are not first on the road and we can use it to our advantage.
19. 01. 2023 21:43 CET 2 flash info (18 - Katsuta Takamoto / Johnston Aaron): We couldn't do any hairpins.
19. 01. 2023 21:43 CET 2 (18 - Katsuta Takamoto / Johnston Aaron): handbrake is not working
19. 01. 2023 21:43 CET 2 flash info (33 - Evans Elfyn / Martin Scott): It's been pretty okay. In here it could have been better but it's so difficut. I didn't go as well as I'd have liked but it was all okay.
19. 01. 2023 21:42 CET 2 flash info (11 - Neuville Thierry / Wydaeghe Martijn): I don't know what happened to be honest. There was zero grip and I was not the first one to go wide there for sure. I could see the lines but I was already too late. I lost probably seven or eight seconds because the car stalled.
19. 01. 2023 21:42 CET 2 flash info (8 - Tänak Ott / Järveoja Martin): It's the same. We will go back to service now to fix it properly. It's been a big challenge.
19. 01. 2023 21:42 CET 2 flash info (69 - Rovanperä Kalle / Halttunen Jonne): I managed the tyres a bit better at the beginning of the stage. Tricky conditions with some ice patches, but the main thing is that we are here.
19. 01. 2023 21:41 CET 2 (11 - Neuville Thierry / Wydaeghe Martijn): was out of road
19. 01. 2023 21:41 CET 1 flash info (24 - Gryazin Nikolay / Aleksandrov Konstantin): It's good. The pace notes feel quite good but I made a lot of mistakes because the front tyres immediately overheated. I am quite surprised at the time because I was understeering so much.
19. 01. 2023 21:40 CET 1 flash info (22 - Lefebvre Stéphane / Malfoy Andy): I tried to manage the tyres - we are on softs and even they were too soft. I think this weekend is going to be tricky for tyre management.
19. 01. 2023 21:40 CET 1 flash info (21 - Rossel Yohan / Dunand Arnaud): I think I am just an amateur! I lost five seconds, I think. It's not too important.
19. 01. 2023 21:40 CET 1 (21 - Rossel Yohan / Dunand Arnaud): stalled on the startline
19. 01. 2023 21:40 CET 1 flash info (9 - Serderidis Jourdan / Miclotte Fréderic): Difficult. I was having some problems with my visibility. It's not a perfect start but it was not bad.
19. 01. 2023 21:39 CET 1 flash info (7 - Loubet Pierre-Louis / Gilsoul Nicolas): It was okay. For my first time in Turini at night, not so bad. We want to be at the end of tonight and this was a good first stage, not so far back from the other guys. Let's continue.
19. 01. 2023 21:39 CET 1 flash info (4 - Lappi Esapekka / Ferm Janne): All good. There are many corners which I don't remember and I feel stupid when I arrive on the apex. I should have been much faster. I know how to improve the times quite quickly, but especially in the dark it's not easy to memorise the stage. I am quite satisfied with the start.
19. 01. 2023 21:39 CET 1 flash info (6 - Sordo Dani / Carrera Cándido): It's true we were a little bit slow. We just tried to be clean but maybe at some points we were backing off.
19. 01. 2023 21:39 CET 1 flash info (17 - Ogier Sébastien / Landais Vincent): It was okay. Very dry conditions but very slippery at the end with the salt. A clean start for us. Anybody who says the nerves are not there either has a problem or is lying!
19. 01. 2023 21:38 CET 1 flash info (18 - Katsuta Takamoto / Johnston Aaron): It's tricky this one - especially in the dark and with these kind of temperatures, but the gravel crew did a great job. It's all okay.
19. 01. 2023 21:38 CET 1 flash info (33 - Evans Elfyn / Martin Scott): I'm a bit surprised to be fastest by 4.7sec. The stage was okay but there's very low grip at the end and it's difficult to know how you're doing.
19. 01. 2023 21:38 CET 1 flash info (11 - Neuville Thierry / Wydaeghe Martijn): That's good, but it was not a perfect stage. It's difficult to kick-off at night in such difficult conditions, but generally I was smooth and had a good feeling. I am looking forward to the next one.
19. 01. 2023 21:37 CET 1 flash info (8 - Tänak Ott / Järveoja Martin): We had some electrical issues in the road section. We can't use fifth gear and every gear change is a pain, We will try to get it home.
19. 01. 2023 21:35 CET 1 flash info (69 - Rovanperä Kalle / Halttunen Jonne): Quite okay. I don't really enjoy these stages a lot - I don't like the characteristics of the stage but I tried my best. The soft tyre is moving quite a lot so I just tried to find the right pace to look after the tyre.
19. 01. 2023 19:51 CET 1 retired (30 - Pajari Sami / Mälkönen Enni): health problems before start
19. 01. 2023 21:54 CET SHAKEDOWN flash info (9 - Serderidis Jourdan / Miclotte Fréderic): It's very tight and a little bit slippery at the end, but for me it was nice. The car is also very nice and everything is okay for the moment.
19. 01. 2023 21:53 CET SHAKEDOWN flash info (7 - Loubet Pierre-Louis / Gilsoul Nicolas): We didn't do the shakedown last year, so I think the time is not so bad. I will try to enjoy but I know it will be difficult for us because we don't know so much the rally.
19. 01. 2023 21:53 CET SHAKEDOWN flash info (4 - Lappi Esapekka / Ferm Janne): I am very excited. For sure, it's a big challenge as always but I think we are ready.
19. 01. 2023 21:53 CET SHAKEDOWN flash info (6 - Sordo Dani / Carrera Cándido): It's a nice road with nice conditions. The first feelings with the car are all good so it's nice.
19. 01. 2023 21:52 CET SHAKEDOWN flash info (17 - Ogier Sébastien / Landais Vincent): It's hard to know what to expect. There's not so much snow but already there is some frost this morning. I always enjoy coming here.
19. 01. 2023 21:52 CET SHAKEDOWN flash info (18 - Katsuta Takamoto / Johnston Aaron): Of course I am excited. The weather is not so bad but the temperatures are going to be quite tricky. It's going to be proper Monte conditions.
19. 01. 2023 21:52 CET SHAKEDOWN flash info (33 - Evans Elfyn / Martin Scott): It's a nice route but it's difficult to know what we're going to face in terms of the weather. All good so far.
19. 01. 2023 21:51 CET SHAKEDOWN flash info (11 - Neuville Thierry / Wydaeghe Martijn): I am happy to be here again. We are kicking off the new season with the same targets and I am looking forward to it. I think we can expect a more exciting season than last year - all three teams should be in the game from the start.
19. 01. 2023 21:51 CET SHAKEDOWN flash info (8 - Tänak Ott / Järveoja Martin): We will see. We have a lot to discover for sure and it's not going to be easy. Let's get it started and we will see where we are.
19. 01. 2023 21:51 CET SHAKEDOWN flash info (69 - Rovanperä Kalle / Halttunen Jonne): The feeling is good. It's always exciting to start the new season, so let's see what we can do in Monte this year. I hope it's better than last year.
