| INFORMATION ABOUT SS 1 | |
(81 - Pahlitzsch Thomas / Grundmann Stefan):
retired in SS 1 | |
|
(64 - Schwarz Fabio / Ettel Bernhard):
accident in SS 1 | |
|
(63 - Bruun Nataniel / Olmos Pablo):
retired in SS 1 | |
(24 - Linnamäe Georg / Morgan James):
Mega slippery, definitely a difficult rally if you're not used to Tarmac but we're here to learn. Softs on the front and hards on the back. | |
|
(23 - Gryazin Nikolay / Aleksandrov Konstantin):
Yes and no, I'm not surprised because it was strategy, I'm surprised also because I felt like it was super slow. It felt jolty. Difficult for everyone. I have softs on, I also took hards. Maybe on the last stage the hards work. | |
| (27 - Lindholm Emil / Hämäläinen Reeta): stopped in stage, continue | |
|
(22 - Pajari Sami / Mälkönen Enni):
Quite tricky, everyone is sayiong the same but really low grip. It's a long route, let's see how our tyre strategy is at the end. | |
|
(21 - López José María / Vázquez David):
Good, it was not an easy stage. We had all black tyres on the car. | |
|
(25 - Ciamin Nicolas / Roche Yannick):
After three corners I knew it would be a disaster. Just impossible to get to grips with the hard compound on the car, it's impossible to get grip. We will switch the compound but just a shame for this one. | |
|
(31 - Greensmith Gus / Andersson Jonas):
I thought I had a puncture in the end so we backed off a little bit, didn't want to take it off the rim. Conditions are tricky. | |
|
(20 - Rossel Yohan / Dunand Arnaud):
I think it isn't easy conditions for sure, it's changing. It's not bad. | |
|
(13 - Munster Grégoire / Louka Louis):
The road position is crazy on this one, we didn't have the best tyre option. I see already there are lines everywhere, we just have to keep it on the road. With the cars in front the road is evolving too much. | |
| (17 - Ogier Sébastien / Landais Vincent): slow puncture | |
|
(9 - Mikkelsen Andreas / Eriksen Torstein):
I made a big mistake in a junction, I went straight and had to reverse. After that I was completely out of the rhythm. A lot of mud everywhere, really hard to drive because you feel you are going slow. | |
| (9 - Mikkelsen Andreas / Eriksen Torstein): missed junction | |
|
(17 - Ogier Sébastien / Landais Vincent):
Not much we can do, we do what we can. It's impossible to match that time. We always hope for better conditions. | |
|
(18 - Katsuta Takamoto / Johnston Aaron):
It's quite hard, conditions are not so good. I am not happy with the information. | |
|
(8 - Tänak Ott / Järveoja Martin):
It's so much harder already, it's very difficult. For these conditions, the tyre choice was OK. | |
|
(16 - Fourmaux Adrien / Coria Alexandre):
To be fair I'm struggling a bit with the tyres, I had the wrong feeling in the stage. It's a very interesting stage. I'm not happy with my time. I am overheating the tyres and have no feeling with the grip. | |
|
(33 - Evans Elfyn / Martin Scott):
Just struggling a little bit, probably a bit on the safe side, the tyre choice wasn't bad. | |
|
(11 - Neuville Thierry / Wydaeghe Martijn):
I tried but I had a hell of an understeer so I was struggling a lot, the grip was much lower than expected. It is hard to say, back into the rhythm but it feels like it's slow because we it is slippery. It didn't feel so great for me but the time is good. | |
| The sun is shining this morning in Zagreb, beating down on the asphalt surface of Croatia Rally's first stage. SS1 is said to be dry with muddy cuts, meaning tyre care will be a priority for our drivers, with a pragmatic approach possibly being adopted ahead of a long morning involving four stages. | |
