INFORMATION ABOUT SS 16
retired (38 - Tsutsui Katsuhiko / Motohashi Takashi): retired in SS 16
flash info (25 - Jürgenson Romet / Oja Siim): Feeling-wise it is not too bad. If we can get rid of some understeer we can go for a good time.
flash info (23 - Lindholm Emil / Morales Gabriel): I'm feeling ok. We had a bit of surprise at the beginning with dirt on the road. I was really careful of that.
flash info (27 - Yamamoto Yuki / Fulton James): Everything is going to plan. I just try not to take any risk. I think everything is good. The guys in front are pushing like hell for the win.
flash info (22 - Cachón Alejandro / Rozada Borja): I tried to do my best. Maybe I lost bit of confidence in the fast sections as the car is moving a bit. It is ok, it is only 1.4sec. We have longer stages ahead.
flash info (21 - Gryazin Nikolay / Aleksandrov Konstantin): It was not easy. I'm just enjoying the fight.
flash info (33 - Evans Elfyn / Martin Scott): I was bit maybe too safe. I kept too much of a margin in places.
flash info (1 - Ogier Sébastien / Landais Vincent): Super Sunday will be difficult but we will try our best to get as many points as we can.
flash info (5 - Pajari Sami / Salminen Marko): At least try to have a good flow on the driving. It seems like Taka is super fast today, so we need to manage the gap, but it should be ok.
flash info (18 - Katsuta Takamoto / Johnston Aaron): It didn't go so well this stage. It is ok. We can fix a bit before the Power Stage.
flash info (16 - Fourmaux Adrien / Coria Alexandre): I cannot do much more. I had a very good stage. I'm pleased with my driving. I tried to be very efficient. I can see some guys in front are really pushing. I tried to be tidy.
flash info (11 - Neuville Thierry / Wydaeghe Martijn): It is undriveable. I hoped to enjoy the last day more. There is no speed. It is frustrating, very frustrating.
flash info (20 - Paddon Hayden / Kennard John): We can't change everything with the set up change overnight. I have got no grip at all. I'm just skating everywhere I don't feel connected with the road. I'm trying to enjoy it as much as I can.
flash info (95 - Armstrong Jon / Byrne Shane): In the middle of the stage coming into a medium speed corner the braking was a bit dicey so I tried to shave one of those orange fences. I clipped it a bit. It was a tricky feeling in there. Let's see if we can improve it.
flash info (55 - McErlean Joshua / Treacy Eoin): If it was messy for Solberg it was definitely messy for us. I can't turn the car.
flash info (99 - Solberg Oliver / Edmondson Elliott): It was a horrible feeling. I did a few too many small mistakes. It was not a clean stage.
