INFORMATION ABOUT SS 10
(53 - Irie Satoshi / Kageyama Satoshi): retired in SS 10
(41 - Arai Toshihiro / Inoue Sota): retired before SS 10
(51 - Kunisawa Mitsuhiro / Kihara Masahiko): retired before SS 10
(29 - Yamamoto Yuki / Salminen Marko): accident in SS 10
(30 - Ingram Chris / Kihurani Alexander): I backed off, we were really struggling with the brakes. The pedal is going through the floor, we've had a tough rally but we need to keep it going for Castrol. We'll give the brakes a bleed before the next one.
(32 - Kovalainen Heikki / Kitagawa Sae): I don't know the accident places, I don't have a gravel crew. It is easy to get caught, if you are on the wrong angle it is like ice, so it is really easy to get caught out. Tricky stage.
(23 - Solans Jan / Sanjuán Rodrigo): accident
(31 - Arai Hiroki / Matsuo Shunsuke): It was really tricky in that stage, maybe after three kilometres in that stage there was no grip at all, I hit a bank and just after I saw Josh McErlean, so maybe he hit that too.
(20 - Pajari Sami / Mälkönen Enni): I didn't have a really good stage there, I was quite cautious in many places. It was quite tricky. I think it is more or less fine. Pollution is more and more, small cuts here and there and many corners with some mud.
(21 - Gryazin Nikolay / Aleksandrov Konstantin): The stage overall is really nice, but it is really slippery. It feels like there is nothing under the ground. As we have the gap, I decide to calm down and [use] the first stage to wake up a little bit.
(8 - Tänak Ott / Järveoja Martin): We need to do better today, for sure. Tricky conditions so a different margin. Difficult to expect when it is a brand new one.
(24 - McErlean Joshua / Fulton James): accident in SS 10
(33 - Evans Elfyn / Martin Scott): I am sure you have heard already it is a pretty tricky start, very slippery, especially in the mid parts. Difficult to read the road. Nothing new for this rally at this point. Small adjustments have been made.
(16 - Fourmaux Adrien / Coria Alexandre): It happened that we are struggling a bit with our tyre. At the beginning was good, but at three to four kilometres on the humid the temperature started to go down. I am happy with the pace at the moment but we will see for the rest of the loop.
(18 - Katsuta Takamoto / Johnston Aaron): Safely through, tricky stage actually. Many things can happen today and tomorrow so let's stay on the road.
(17 - Ogier Sébastien / Landais Vincent): Good stage from Munster, I think it was okay, clean. Tricky conditions. There is some muddy corners, which are greasy but we had a clean run. Maybe we aren't pushing enough but at least we are here.
(13 - Munster Grégoire / Louka Louis): Oh really I am faster than Neuville? I think I was too careful, really tricky, lot of mud. The gravel came up in the beginning but a lot of mud. I was really careful at the beginning. I was on full soft tyres.
(9 - Mikkelsen Andreas / Eriksen Torstein): We are waiting for tomorrow basically, very tricky conditions in there. If you are pushing you can get a lot of time, but very easy to get caught out. Not so much motivation for me today, we are on the safe side. We try to drive well but when conditions are tricky, I don't want to make a mistake.
(11 - Neuville Thierry / Wydaeghe Martijn): Finally, the car is working again and we can get some speed. Obviously today is all about getting back into the points, trying to maximise the day. Really tricky in there, super slippery. I tried to do my best but in some places you can get a surprise.
