INFORMATION ABOUT SS 19
flash info (25 - Jürgenson Romet / Oja Siim): I tried but somehow the car was really peaky. I had some moments with the rear. It was not ideal.
flash info (23 - Lindholm Emil / Morales Gabriel): I'm feeling ok. We are juts enjoying the stages and bringing it through. One more to go. I wouldn't say frustrating but this rally has been like this. We need to carry on and bring the car back.
flash info (27 - Yamamoto Yuki / Fulton James): I know what to do. I just need to keep like this and we will see at the end.
flash info (22 - Cachón Alejandro / Rozada Borja): It feels like a proper push. I'm going to win, I'm completely sure. It will be epic.
flash info (21 - Gryazin Nikolay / Aleksandrov Konstantin): Not easy. I had too much understeer. I struggle with the grip on the front.
flash info (33 - Evans Elfyn / Martin Scott): I'm feeling alright. It felt pretty ok but maybe missing the last bit of risk. We have to try in the Power Stage.
flash info (1 - Ogier Sébastien / Landais Vincent): It is not about road position. It is the story of the weekend, it is the tyres giving up so quickly and I'm not able to be fast anymore.
flash info (5 - Pajari Sami / Salminen Marko): We are in a good position for the moment. There is still one more stage to go but it is under control at the moment.
flash info (18 - Katsuta Takamoto / Johnston Aaron): It is ok. The second pass is getting worse and worse all the time. It is hard to match Oliver's time.
flash info (16 - Fourmaux Adrien / Coria Alexandre): I'm feeling ok. There is not so much to gain today and I just need to bring the car back.
flash info (11 - Neuville Thierry / Wydaeghe Martijn): There is not much to play for other then the Power Stage. W have to give it a try. We are not playing for Sunday points either. The focus is on the Power Stage and it is the last one on tarmac. Hopefully the balance will be ok and I can have a smile.
flash info (20 - Paddon Hayden / Kennard John): We are taking it easy through here. Power Stage is the last stage for the Rally1 tarmac car so we will give it the best we can.
flash info (95 - Armstrong Jon / Byrne Shane): It is more familiar and I can keep a good rhythm and know how much to ask of the tyre. It is little bit more tricky when you are on the wider road and with smooth tarmac. I think we are somtimes under driving and sometimes over driving A pretty ok run.
flash info (55 - McErlean Joshua / Treacy Eoin): This one section in the forest which is dirty. It is scattered gravel. It is what it is. One more to go.
flash info (99 - Solberg Oliver / Edmondson Elliott): Not too much different actually. It was quite similar to my first pass. It wasn't crazy push. I struggled with a bit of understeer, it is not the same feeling in the car as yesterday.
