INFORMATION ABOUT SS 4
flash info (27 - Yamamoto Yuki / Fulton James): It was not really a perfect run. I had hesitation all the time and it is not easy with the new notes. Everything is going well so it is ok.
flash info (25 - Jürgenson Romet / Oja Siim): It is so much more consistent and you can trust the car and the tyres. I had a good push. I had some understeer at the end but it is logical consider ingthe push.
flash info (24 - Domínguez Diego / Peñate Rogelio): The time is not as bad as thought. We had a lot of understeer but it is not too bad.
flash info (23 - Lindholm Emil / Morales Gabriel): Not too good but ok. The grip is good so now we need to start pushing.
flash info (22 - Cachón Alejandro / Rozada Borja): I was pushing to the maximum. This stage is really fast and you need to be confident. We did a great job.
flash info (21 - Gryazin Nikolay / Aleksandrov Konstantin): We are a bit heavy carrying the second spare wheel. There is too much sliding around, but the feeling despite that was ok.
flash info (55 - McErlean Joshua / Treacy Eoin): Much the same. It is tricky to get back on throttle. We have to keep on trying to find a solution with the driving at the moment.
flash info (95 - Armstrong Jon / Byrne Shane): I ran out of grip towards the end of the stage and I touched the armco. I'm trying to drive faster and it was a better stage for us There is still some ways we can improve the performance but sometimes you can get surprises like that.
flash info (20 - Paddon Hayden / Kennard John): It is obviously a normal dry stage., I felt I drove ok but the car is moving around a lot. It enjoyed it, it was a lot of fun.
flash info (11 - Neuville Thierry / Wydaeghe Martijn): Car has changed a lot, I have no front end any more. I am full lock everywhere.
flash info (1 - Ogier Sébastien / Landais Vincent): There was much more grip and it was much more enjoyable. It should be more equal this afternoon.
flash info (5 - Pajari Sami / Salminen Marko): It has changed a lot. I don't know why we lost so much. I was not expecting that.
flash info (16 - Fourmaux Adrien / Coria Alexandre): In service we were working on basic things.
flash info (99 - Solberg Oliver / Edmondson Elliott): Stage is new for everyone so I guess that helps. I guess there was some good driving too.
flash info (18 - Katsuta Takamoto / Johnston Aaron): I just try to manage the situation. Of course when I can push I will try to push, it is not easy at the moment.
flash info (33 - Evans Elfyn / Martin Scott): Road position isn't an advantage I guess but let's see how it is.
Stage is completely dry.
