INFORMATION ABOUT SS 8
retired (39 - Sachania Nikhil / Patel Deep): retired after SS 8
retired (38 - Pulligilla Naveen / Sherif Musa): retired in SS 8
flash info (21 - Virves Robert / Viilo Jakko): I think here nothing can take the pressure off. We had a quite nice stage and we had animals, horses or something on the road, and one time was quite a bad place, but I managed to avoid them.
flash info (20 - Greensmith Gus / Andersson Jonas): I think the gearbox might be about to go pop. I lost all my gears and it is not changing gears.
flash info (95 - Armstrong Jon / Byrne Shane): It is always hard to call and it was a bit on the border of whether we should have stopped. We probably lost less time so hopefully we can continue now. It was unlucky. There were so many rocks in there so it probably doesn't take much to get one.
flash info (4 - Lappi Esapekka / Mälkönen Enni): I think the next stage will show us. It is more technical and no space to go wide. Over here I can manage, it is so wide. The next two will show of the changes to the car can make it better.
(95 - Armstrong Jon / Byrne Shane): puncture
flash info (5 - Pajari Sami / Salminen Marko): I had a really clean stage. I guess if I try to push more or slow down the risk of having some issues is quite similar. Maybe I was lucky not to have some loose stones, but it felt comfortable.
flash info (1 - Ogier Sébastien / Landais Vincent): Nice stage, but you can't push. A lot of stones, trying to avoid them. Let's finish today, but tomorrow will be a massive day.
flash info (11 - Neuville Thierry / Wydaeghe Martijn): It was quite an ok stage I have to say the rear was following the front of the car quite well which wasn't the case before. In the ruts I am feeling ten times more comfortable, but outside of the ruts I have no feeling for the car.
flash info (16 - Fourmaux Adrien / Coria Alexandre): I did one mistake where I went into a small bank and I lose all the speed all the way up after that. There are loose rocks everywhere, I am happy we survived the two rough stages now.
flash info (18 - Katsuta Takamoto / Johnston Aaron): Now I have to stay in the game. I have completely backed off. We will try to catch back up afterwards.
flash info (99 - Solberg Oliver / Edmondson Elliott): I don't know I felt something but I didn't see anything. It was a slow puncture from about 6km. I tried to keep it but it delaminated 200 metres ago, so I almost kept it to the end. It is how it is. I think I have to step up my speed a bit now.
(99 - Solberg Oliver / Edmondson Elliott): puncture
flash info (33 - Evans Elfyn / Martin Scott): Trying to do what we can, nothing really crazy. The feeling is never nice, the stage is really hard and it is really hard on the tyres. Clean run.
Stage is dry.
