INFORMATION ABOUT SS 20
flash info (18 - Katsuta Takamoto / Johnston Aaron): I don't know what to say. We had so many difficult moments.. Aaron worked very hard with me and the team always believed in me, even when I failed. Thanks to the whole team. Thanks to them and Aaron, my family always a big supporter. Finally here. So many moments, so many things happening... thank you to Ott Tänak. He's been there every single moment, sending me messages. He was waking up earlier than me. I did it, thanks to you! Akio san - finally we're here.
flash info (16 - Fourmaux Adrien / Coria Alexandre): It is very good to get the first podium for Hyundai this year. Congrats to Taka for his first win. It was a great weekend for you. A difficult start but we finish on a high.
flash info (5 - Pajari Sami / Salminen Marko): It feels really nice. I think there is not so many drivers that can smile at the end of this rally as it was eventful. Super happy with the result now and thanks to the team.
flash info (4 - Lappi Esapekka / Mälkönen Enni): Finally we made it. But I have to say a big thanks to the mechanics they did an incredible job on all three cars. It was really tough and the toughest ever for me. Big job to keep it alive also between the stages. We have never done so much fixing in between stages but this is the reward.
flash info (99 - Solberg Oliver / Edmondson Elliott): I mean this is what it should be this weekend. It's been an amazing weekend, great adventure. It looked so good, we had it under control and kept it clean. Today we could push and take maximum. I'm so happy for Taka if he could take it, he's the most lovely guy in the world. Others were unlucky, but great for him. Sorry for the team with the three cars, that was hard to take. I cried a bit in bed because it was going so well. Thank you to the team, it's only our fourth rally in this car and we're down to 50% wins.
flash info (1 - Ogier Sébastien / Landais Vincent): I never like to push the maximum in this condition. It is possible to go faster if you really go for it. This is the one rally of the year where speed matters the least. This weekend wasn't good for us, so a small kick in the ass to do better. I hope Taka can bring it home.
flash info (11 - Neuville Thierry / Wydaeghe Martijn): It is not over yet. It is very rough in there there are lots of big rocks. Luckily we didn't puncture. I don't think we will take many points here. It doesn't feel fast.
flash info (33 - Evans Elfyn / Martin Scott): Let's see how the others do behind it is rough stage. We tried anyway and I'm really keeping my fingers crossed for Taka. He has been working really hard for a very long time for this. I hope everything goes his way.
flash info (95 - Armstrong Jon / Byrne Shane): It's been such a massive experience through all sorts of different experiences. We got through without Super Rally, we had a fair share of issues. That's good. Some of our pace has been good as well, first time on gravel with this car. Thanks to M-Sport, it's been a massive effort to keep this car running. Such a wild ride.
flash info (21 - Virves Robert / Viilo Jakko): I must say it feels amazing. I wasn't a big fan of coming here, but I think we experienced the proper Safari and to come through with no issues.. Incredible effort by the team and everyone else.
flash info (20 - Greensmith Gus / Andersson Jonas): For sure, a lot more issues than we have had in the past here. It is a new car and l'm still not driving it to its best. I think Robert is very deserving winner so well done. I think the Rally2 cars are actually stronger than the Rally1 cars this weekend.
flash info (23 - Zaldivar Fabrizio / Der Ohannesian Marcelo): It is challenging to fight against Andreas and it is nice to fight against him. I'm really happy with the result and it has been a very hard weekend. I need to thank my team.
flash info (22 - Mikkelsen Andreas / Listerud Jørn): We try what we can. It felt really slow up the hills like we didn't have power. Lots of positives to take even though the result wasn't what we wanted. We took our chances today but it was too much to catch. It has been a cool event even if I missed the Sleeping Warrior stage.
flash info (25 - Domínguez Diego / Peñate Rogelio): Top five. I'm very happy and pleased with the pace we showed this weekend. I surprised myself and l'm very happy to be here at the end and I'd like to thank everyone.
