14. 03. 2026 15:11 CET 		15 flash info (22 - Mikkelsen Andreas / Listerud Jørn): If you risk everything you can go faster. There are a lot of stones. I try to keep a good pace and we will see. Bit sad we couldn't go through the Sleeping Warrior, I came for the full Safari experience, I always wanted to drive on one of those stages with a straight full of mud.
14. 03. 2026 17:10
14. 03. 2026 15:10 CET 		15 flash info (25 - Domínguez Diego / Peñate Rogelio): We lost a lot of time on the last stage because of a misfire. Happy to hear about the time. We keep pushing.
14. 03. 2026 17:10
14. 03. 2026 15:10 CET 		15 flash info (23 - Zaldivar Fabrizio / Der Ohannesian Marcelo): It was not the best, we are having some issues with the car, so we have to move on.
14. 03. 2026 16:47
14. 03. 2026 14:47 CET 		15 flash info (20 - Greensmith Gus / Andersson Jonas): Robert has a nice lead now after I had a puncture. I wasn't pushing that hard as I thought we had picked up another puncture. Still one to go.
14. 03. 2026 16:46
14. 03. 2026 14:46 CET 		15 flash info (21 - Virves Robert / Viilo Jakko): I think this is one of the worst places to be with a lead. You start to look for many more things. We try to keep it clean.
14. 03. 2026 16:46
14. 03. 2026 14:46 CET 		15 flash info (5 - Pajari Sami / Salminen Marko): We had a really good discussion with one of my friends at lunchtime. Even after the disappointing morning we just have to move on. It's really messed up, the next stage is one kilometre away, there it's raining and here there is no rain.
14. 03. 2026 16:46
14. 03. 2026 14:46 CET 		15 flash info (55 - McErlean Joshua / Treacy Eoin): We are surviving. If I can just get through it is something for the mechanics. Big thanks to them.
14. 03. 2026 16:45
14. 03. 2026 14:45 CET 		15 flash info (4 - Lappi Esapekka / Mälkönen Enni): I'm not looking at the results at all I just try to finish. I don't care about the result. It doesn't make any sense for me to try and compete this week. We hit a hidden rock on a left corner after a crest and the tyre went immediately went and now you see the result.
14. 03. 2026 16:45
14. 03. 2026 14:45 CET 		15 flash info (16 - Fourmaux Adrien / Coria Alexandre): I really tried to not break any work that done on the car and make sire we don't get a lot of mud on the radiator for the next stage. I really was looking after the car. It was a very good team effort in service. We need to get a good result. It is quite s lot if I want to push to catch Taka. We have had three days racing on the car so we need to take care of them.
14. 03. 2026 16:45
14. 03. 2026 14:45 CET 		15 flash info (18 - Katsuta Takamoto / Johnston Aaron): Honestly it's much easier when you are fighting flatout everywhere. It's very stressful, I am just trying to avoid every single rock, even the very small ones.
14. 03. 2026 16:44
14. 03. 2026 14:44 CET 		15 flash info (95 - Armstrong Jon / Byrne Shane): It is not idea; We just tried t make it through this stage. We were in road mode a bit and clipped something on the line and got a puncture. Pretty disappointed at this point.

14. 03. 2026 16:40
14. 03. 2026 14:40 CET 		14 flash info (21 - Virves Robert / Viilo Jakko): The first part was okay, after something like 8-9 km I thought I had a puncture. In the last part with the slow corners I just can't turn the car, but otherwise it is okay.
14. 03. 2026 16:40
14. 03. 2026 14:40 CET 		14 flash info (5 - Pajari Sami / Salminen Marko): I was stuck in the dust, then we overtook Thierry and then on the next straight I saw the next straight I saw the next car a few hundred metres away. There is nothing you can do.
14. 03. 2026 16:39
14. 03. 2026 14:39 CET 		14 flash info (95 - Armstrong Jon / Byrne Shane): We had absolutely no power from the start and then we had a puncture which we stopped and changed and then after that we had a warning and we stopped to see if it was anything bad. Maybe not quite the right thing to do.
14. 03. 2026 16:39
14. 03. 2026 14:39 CET 		14 (11 - Neuville Thierry / Wydaeghe Martijn): stopped again with damaged suspension

14. 03. 2026 14:38 CET 		14 flash info (55 - McErlean Joshua / Treacy Eoin): It is an engine problem we need to keep going.
14. 03. 2026 16:38
14. 03. 2026 14:38 CET 		14 flash info (4 - Lappi Esapekka / Mälkönen Enni): To come through we haven't had any other target. There is no sense to be fast. I will break the car otherwise.
14. 03. 2026 16:38
14. 03. 2026 14:38 CET 		14 (11 - Neuville Thierry / Wydaeghe Martijn): puncture

14. 03. 2026 14:38 CET 		14 flash info (18 - Katsuta Takamoto / Johnston Aaron): It was much drier and I expected to find some rain but fortunately it didn't come. It is still crazy, I need to manage.

14. 03. 2026 16:33
14. 03. 2026 14:33 CET 		13 flash info (99 - Solberg Oliver / Edmondson Elliott): We were on our way back to service with some technical problems, and then there was a traffic stop and the car stopped. Of course when you try to have such a clean and smart rally it hurts when you are in the lead and able to control things and potentially have a fantastic result. But that’s life. I mean it has been a fantastic start with the team. Four rallies and just a bit of bad luck now. But we know the speed is there and the feeling is there, so we just have to keep going.
14. 03. 2026 16:33
14. 03. 2026 14:33 CET 		13 flash info (33 - Evans Elfyn / Martin Scott): The morning started pretty well and things were going fine in the second stage of the loop as well. But unfortunately a new layout at the end of the stage caught us out a bit. We picked up a double puncture and managed to fit another tyre to start the next stage, but it looks like there was more damage caused by the impact with the rock. Coming into the first braking of the last stage of the loop, the rear suspension gave way at that moment – or something at the rear anyway - and that’s where it ended unfortunately. I had to take one look at that to know that it couldn’t be fixed, especially here in Kenya. So there was no chance to do anything unfortunately.
14. 03. 2026 16:32
14. 03. 2026 14:32 CET 		13 flash info (1 - Ogier Sébastien / Landais Vincent): Actually we got the alarm at the finish line of the Sleeping Warrior stage, about the alternator issue. The road section was unfortunately a bit too long to reach the service park. We tried everything we could on the road section to fix it to try and find a way to make the alternator run again but unfortunately it didn’t and we had to retire. It looks like it has been caused by mud coming into the car, of course the whole car is incredibly dirty and it looks like some mud has been coming in. I have been told that one of our cars also had the issue and actually managed to fix it by putting clean water on it again and it started running again. We did that too but unfortunately it didn’t solve our issue. I did everything I could do but it wasn’t enough.
14. 03. 2026 16:32
14. 03. 2026 14:32 CET 		13 flash info (16 - Fourmaux Adrien / Coria Alexandre): We were using a huge puddle at the side of the road to get enough water to refill the car so it was a mix of mud inside so now they will have to try and clean it. I hope it is going to be ok. We used all the camel bags an everything we had inside, and all the extra litres we had in the back of the car to clean the radiator but still we were overheating and I had to stop again in the road section, we had a technical issue with the clutch. I thought we were going to have to retire because the car would not make it but we managed it very well. There is a big job for the team, I hope they can do it.
14. 03. 2026 16:30
14. 03. 2026 14:30 CET 		13 flash info (11 - Neuville Thierry / Wydaeghe Martijn): Lots of dramas, honestly it was a nightmare. It was a proper adventure and it is not the way you want to go overheating on the last stage and I had zero visibility because the washing system didn’t work anymore. There was lots of trouble and we got to the end, but I was really taking care of the car to get through because I knew everyone would have similar troubles. We fixed the radiator and the engine but we lost all the drive and the clutch went and it seems like everyone is struggling with the same issue. Somehow trying hard I got it going and I’m happy to be here. Nothing is done yet and we saw Solberg getting pushed by a car the whole way back and we saw Ogier getting towed. Passing the cars on the road and realised we were gaining positions. I think we are second now but still there is no guarantee we are going to finish the rally. It is still very long.
14. 03. 2026 16:29
14. 03. 2026 14:29 CET 		13 flash info Juha Kankkunen: Definitely the last stage was quite muddy and rough and the mud went into the engine side and broke the alternators for Solberg and Ogier. Oliver has also a little bit of a transmission problem as well and Elfyn we know what happened to him already so it hasn’t been the best morning. Taka is still leading but in that case we are ok but that is Safari. That can happen.

14. 03. 2026 16:26
14. 03. 2026 14:26 CET 		13 flash info (99 - Solberg Oliver / Edmondson Elliott): Not good. Ogier took a minute but what can I do? I have no spare tyres and I can't see anything. I just tried to be smart. Ogier is pushing to take advantage.
14. 03. 2026 16:26
14. 03. 2026 14:26 CET 		13 flash info (1 - Ogier Sébastien / Landais Vincent): Just to go through there is good.
14. 03. 2026 16:26
14. 03. 2026 14:26 CET 		13 flash info (5 - Pajari Sami / Salminen Marko): Not well. It was going quite well until the last kilometres of the last stage. At least we came through.
14. 03. 2026 16:26
14. 03. 2026 14:26 CET 		13 flash info (11 - Neuville Thierry / Wydaeghe Martijn): I couldn't see a thing but we are here.

14. 03. 2026 14:24 CET 		13 (33 - Evans Elfyn / Martin Scott): going with damaged suspension
14. 03. 2026 16:24
14. 03. 2026 14:24 CET 		13 flash info (18 - Katsuta Takamoto / Johnston Aaron): It is super muddy and tricky and we have no spare so I completely backed off and for sure we will lose a lot of time. It is better to stay in the game and anything can happen in the afternoon.
14. 03. 2026 16:23
14. 03. 2026 14:23 CET 		13 flash info (4 - Lappi Esapekka / Mälkönen Enni): We were so busy to fix all the other problems that we didn't have time to fill the washer liquid and we run out on the first stage. Windscreen was full of mud, I couldn't see a thing.
14. 03. 2026 16:23
14. 03. 2026 14:23 CET 		13 flash info (95 - Armstrong Jon / Byrne Shane): I tried to have a good rhythm and bit of set up change seemed to help. It was such a demanding stage. It is just mental and it is not surprising that you can get a puncture in there so easy as you are a passenger. The amount of head banging you are doing as well, you've got to be tough for this game.

14. 03. 2026 14:19 CET 		12 flash info (21 - Virves Robert / Viilo Jakko): It's not easy. Specially first time. So difficult to read the road and understand where you can go. Sometimes you go to places where you didn't want to go. Crazy experience.
14. 03. 2026 16:18
14. 03. 2026 14:18 CET 		12 flash info (99 - Solberg Oliver / Edmondson Elliott): I have no clue. I tried to take it so carefully, but just again a slow puncture. Seriously what the organiser and FIA, what they've done here at the end, is unacceptable. Putting sticks after recce and sending us a phone video and all the sticks are gone and there are rocks everywhere they talk about safety, this is dangerous.
14. 03. 2026 16:18
14. 03. 2026 14:18 CET 		12 (99 - Solberg Oliver / Edmondson Elliott): double puncture
14. 03. 2026 16:18
14. 03. 2026 14:18 CET 		12 flash info (1 - Ogier Sébastien / Landais Vincent): Very unlucky puncture on the first one, we couldn't avoid it. Many things will still happen today, maybe we had our run of bad luck already.
14. 03. 2026 16:17
14. 03. 2026 14:17 CET 		12 flash info (5 - Pajari Sami / Salminen Marko): We had a bit of explosion on a straight line. We had a double puncture on the right side. Ilm sure something else was broken.
14. 03. 2026 16:17
14. 03. 2026 14:17 CET 		12 flash info (33 - Evans Elfyn / Martin Scott): Absolute joke. They put all these things in the finish to stop us from cutting after the recce, now stones are everywhere. I went out of the line and punctured. It's completely out of order.

14. 03. 2026 16:16
14. 03. 2026 14:16 CET 		12 flash info (11 - Neuville Thierry / Wydaeghe Martijn): It was not a good stage for me honestly. There is a.lot of cutting and people went wide everywhere. It is a long day so we need to take care of the car and we have lost part of the front bumper which is not ideal.
14. 03. 2026 16:16
14. 03. 2026 14:16 CET 		12 flash info (16 - Fourmaux Adrien / Coria Alexandre): I did quite a good stage but I need to go.

14. 03. 2026 14:16 CET 		12 flash info (18 - Katsuta Takamoto / Johnston Aaron): It's unbelievable. They've changed the road after the recce. How can we make pacenotes from the video? Totally wrong line in the ruts, I have a double puncture now.

14. 03. 2026 14:15 CET 		12 flash info (4 - Lappi Esapekka / Mälkönen Enni): I got a few hits in some pot holes. To be honest I need to check the onboard. Some sections are easy and some are not.
14. 03. 2026 16:15
14. 03. 2026 14:15 CET 		12 flash info (95 - Armstrong Jon / Byrne Shane): Not too sure how that happened. There is a lot of bedrock in some of the muddy ruts towards the end. I think it [the puncture] happened towards the end somewhere. It is so hard to get through. there are so many places where we can go faster but it is all a learning curve.

14. 03. 2026 14:14 CET 		12 flash info (55 - McErlean Joshua / Treacy Eoin): It was bonkers. Oh my god. With the water and the tracks it is so dicey.

14. 03. 2026 13:24 CET 		11 flash info (1 - Ogier Sébastien / Landais Vincent): Rocks in the line in the fast section, I couldn't avoid it. Straight away a puncture.

14. 03. 2026 13:24 CET 		11 flash info (33 - Evans Elfyn / Martin Scott): The puncture is shame for Ogier. It is so unpredictable in this stage as we have said so many times. These hard ruts and stuff are hard to judge. Not easy.

14. 03. 2026 13:24 CET 		11 flash info (5 - Pajari Sami / Salminen Marko): Not so easy, I don't know why but my windscreen washer was not washing. There was 300 metre straight where I could not see where to go.

14. 03. 2026 13:23 CET 		11 flash info (11 - Neuville Thierry / Wydaeghe Martijn): I don't know, I had a good stage. It is about how much risk you take in the mud and it is all about that. We need to work on the car with the understeer.
14. 03. 2026 15:22
14. 03. 2026 13:22 CET 		11 flash info (16 - Fourmaux Adrien / Coria Alexandre): It was ok actually. It was tricky in some places and there are a lot of big puddles that are cleaning. I'm quite happy with my performance. It is quite difficult as the pot holes are deep and there has been some big impacts on the car. Im ok.
14. 03. 2026 15:22
14. 03. 2026 13:22 CET 		11 flash info (18 - Katsuta Takamoto / Johnston Aaron): For sure, it is drying up in many places. I have no chance to fight with the guys behind. It is about surviving this morning and this afternoonIi hope the big rain comes after I drive through the stage. That is the plan.

14. 03. 2026 13:22 CET 		11 flash info (4 - Lappi Esapekka / Mälkönen Enni): In some sections it is fine but when it the road is this powder the front doesn't pull in and there is massive understeer. When it is a packed road the grip is better and fine but with the low grip it is just understeer.

Obviously it was rough in many of the stages but I tried to play it clever in the places where the risk is the highest. There is still a really long way to go. I saw some of my team-mates watching my first pass onboard at lunchtime so I think that is a sign sometimes it has been the other way around so it is fine.
13. 03. 2026 18:02
13. 03. 2026 16:02 CET 		10 flash info (1 - Ogier Sébastien / Landais Vincent): It has been a good day. It is actually better to not be in the lead tonight because we know on Saturday it always starts raining in the afternoon and most of the time the rear guys suffer the most. Tomorrow is a big day and it will be a massive challenge to survive that one.

13. 03. 2026 16:00 CET 		10 flash info (99 - Solberg Oliver / Edmondson Elliott): I tried my best. It was really slippery again and I thought I had a front right puncture fro some reason but I don't know why. We are back to zero now with Seb, so we will see what he does. I have a had a fight with him before and this year I'm leading 1-0 so let's see. He has had an incredible day, really really impressive. I have tried to be smart and do my thing and clearly we were too careful and we had bad luck with the puncture. We will go again tomorrow.

13. 03. 2026 15:19 CET 		9 flash info (23 - Zaldivar Fabrizio / Der Ohannesian Marcelo): We stalled at the start of the stage so we lost time there and also we are having a bit of an issue with the clutch. But ok, it has been a good afternoon for us. Let's see if the rain comes or not.

13. 03. 2026 15:19 CET 		9 flash info (22 - Mikkelsen Andreas / Listerud Jørn): There is still a long rally to go. In this stage we had to take a bit of detour because the right hander approached before I expected and I had to go straight onto a new road and then go to another new road to find myself back to the stage. I'm enjoying the conditions when they are like this.
13. 03. 2026 17:19
13. 03. 2026 15:19 CET 		9 flash info (21 - Virves Robert / Viilo Jakko): Somehow the feeling is not really good at the end of the stage. Until the uphill section it was more or less ok. It was not the easiest one.
13. 03. 2026 17:18
13. 03. 2026 15:18 CET 		9 flash info (20 - Greensmith Gus / Andersson Jonas): It is the same as the last one. Every gear change sometimes it doesn't go in. It is what it is. I just have to manage.
13. 03. 2026 17:18
13. 03. 2026 15:18 CET 		9 flash info (4 - Lappi Esapekka / Mälkönen Enni): We had a family of giraffe on the road and the baby was the last one and I dropped to first gear and followed it for 200-300 metres so I lost maybe 15-20 seconds. We lost time but I didn't want to risk anything because of the animal. At the end I just washed out a touched a tree and luckily it was a soft touch.

13. 03. 2026 17:17

13. 03. 2026 15:15 CET 		9 flash info (16 - Fourmaux Adrien / Coria Alexandre): It was very slippery on the braking so the only way to rotate the car was to slow it with a Scandinavian flick.

13. 03. 2026 17:09
13. 03. 2026 15:09 CET 		8 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.
13. 03. 2026 17:08
13. 03. 2026 15:08 CET 		8 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.
13. 03. 2026 17:08
13. 03. 2026 15:08 CET 		8 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.

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.

We have an oil leak front the gearbox, so that is us done for today. This morning was very difficult with obviously the overheating problem from last night. I thought the tables were turning but now something else happens. It is quite hard to take. Hopefully we get back out tomorrow.

13. 03. 2026 15:02 CET 		7 flash info (20 - Greensmith Gus / Andersson Jonas): We had two punctures in here in the first pass if we got two puncture like Taka it makes the afternoon very difficult. I was not risking it in this one.

13. 03. 2026 15:02 CET 		7 flash info (55 - McErlean Joshua / Treacy Eoin): It was super rough. I would say it probably happened on a braking zone if anywhere. We probably should have stopped to change it but it is so hard to judge how rough it is.

13. 03. 2026 15:02 CET 		7 flash info (95 - Armstrong Jon / Byrne Shane): It's quite different in terms of how rough it is. A lot of rocks, not much we can really do about that. Trying not to hit those rocks. We're learning with every kilometre and are happy with what we are doing.

Driving on top of the road is still where we struggle. I had to avoid a couple of big rocks in here. There was one I couldn't avoid and I thought we had a puncture but luckily we didn't.

13. 03. 2026 14:53 CET 		6 flash info (5 - Pajari Sami / Salminen Marko): Is it that I'm taking risks in some places? Maybe slightly but this the first pass and if you want to try and be quick this is the chance. The second loop will be really different.
13. 03. 2026 16:53
13. 03. 2026 14:53 CET 		6 flash info (1 - Ogier Sébastien / Landais Vincent): It is not a fun stage to be honest, no corners at all.a couple of junctions. It is full of stones and I tried to be careful but it is a pure lottery here. The rain looks like it is coming again this afternoon.
13. 03. 2026 16:53
13. 03. 2026 14:53 CET 		6 flash info (11 - Neuville Thierry / Wydaeghe Martijn): The stage is straight all the time and big compressions. It was a bit less harsh than in the recce. We need to protect the car as the rally is still long and the second pass will be even worse. I think it was a good approach. We got a puncture but no time lost.
13. 03. 2026 16:52
13. 03. 2026 14:52 CET 		6 flash info (16 - Fourmaux Adrien / Coria Alexandre): At the end there was a lot of loose rocks. I ha da good stage and l'm quite happy with it. I was a bit too careful on the jump but I still felt it was a decent jump. Today is a Hakuna Matata style.
13. 03. 2026 16:52
13. 03. 2026 14:52 CET 		6 flash info (18 - Katsuta Takamoto / Johnston Aaron): he jump was ok. Hopefully the tyres have survived,. Obviously I have been very careful but let's see if we can fight until the end. At the end of course we push but before that we just need to survive.
13. 03. 2026 16:52
13. 03. 2026 14:52 CET 		6 flash info (99 - Solberg Oliver / Edmondson Elliott): There is a lot of cleaning and a. complete lottery with the rocks. For sure, I was way too careful this morning with the rocks. I just want to keep it clean and as long as I keep around Evans is I'm happy, but Ogier for sure is very quick. There is so much cleaning behind. It has been a decent morning and I'm just trying to enjoy, learn and not have any punctures.
13. 03. 2026 16:52
13. 03. 2026 14:52 CET 		6 flash info (33 - Evans Elfyn / Martin Scott): The first one was a bit frustrating and was managing a bit of an issue there but we managed to sort it after. After it has been clean enough. In here it is not a nice one. It is so flat out with some high commitment stuff and it is just about how brave you want to be on things that will break the car. Brakes was the issue on the first one.

13. 03. 2026 14:49 CET 		5 flash info (23 - Zaldivar Fabrizio / Der Ohannesian Marcelo): To be honest the feeling in the car was not so great, the same as the first one. I'm struggling with the power of the car, l'm not sure if this is normal or the engine suffered bit yesterday. Compared t last year I feel like I'm driving quite slow.
13. 03. 2026 16:48
13. 03. 2026 14:48 CET 		5 flash info (22 - Mikkelsen Andreas / Listerud Jørn): These tyres are strange they go off very quickly on the rear and you think you have a puncture so I slowed down until I realised I didn't have a puncture. I'm just missing the experience with the tyres.
13. 03. 2026 16:48
13. 03. 2026 14:48 CET 		5 flash info (21 - Virves Robert / Viilo Jakko): The condition was not too bad but there were a lot of loose rocks in fast places. So far this is the smoothest stage. It has been interesting let's say.
13. 03. 2026 16:47
13. 03. 2026 14:47 CET 		5 flash info (20 - Greensmith Gus / Andersson Jonas): We didn't have the alarm but the engine has been very flat and up the hill I can barely get into fifth gear in places.
13. 03. 2026 16:47
13. 03. 2026 14:47 CET 		5 flash info (55 - McErlean Joshua / Treacy Eoin): It is still the same thing. We are losing power which isn't so good.
13. 03. 2026 16:47
13. 03. 2026 14:47 CET 		5 flash info (95 - Armstrong Jon / Byrne Shane): That is not so bad. We had a pretty good run so I can't complain about that. It is tricky to manage everything, I still have a small intercom issue that is crackling a bit.
13. 03. 2026 16:47
13. 03. 2026 14:47 CET 		5 flash info (4 - Lappi Esapekka / Mälkönen Enni): It was ok. There was some cows at the beginning that I needed to avoid so I maybe lost one or two seconds. I think I have too much locking on the differential and we cannot change that.
13. 03. 2026 16:47
13. 03. 2026 14:47 CET 		5 flash info (5 - Pajari Sami / Salminen Marko): I tried to have quite a big push in this stage. I had some small moment at the end and at least the car is driving straight.
13. 03. 2026 16:46
13. 03. 2026 14:46 CET 		5 flash info (1 - Ogier Sébastien / Landais Vincent): It has been good. It is cleaning a bit in there and it is not about taking the risk in the rocky section. Ok stage from us.
13. 03. 2026 16:46
13. 03. 2026 14:46 CET 		5 flash info (11 - Neuville Thierry / Wydaeghe Martijn): We had a rear left puncture but I don't think it cost us too much time. It feels very slow there is no power and compared to previous years it is much worse. It is a different kind of driving style and somehow have to use the engine differently. I'm really struggling. Kenya is a nice rally and I want to enjoy and not complain too much.
13. 03. 2026 16:46

13. 03. 2026 14:45 CET 		5 flash info (16 - Fourmaux Adrien / Coria Alexandre): The dry stages are much more like normal stages for now. There was loose rocks so I was slowing down in places. But it is ok. Two clean stages and we are on the right pace for now.
13. 03. 2026 16:45
13. 03. 2026 14:45 CET 		5 flash info (18 - Katsuta Takamoto / Johnston Aaron): I was taking care of the tyres and I wasn't sure if I got a puncture or not. There were animals crossing a lot so I had to slow down on the straights.
13. 03. 2026 16:45
13. 03. 2026 14:45 CET 		5 flash info (99 - Solberg Oliver / Edmondson Elliott): There was a lot of loose rocks in there and I was too careful. I didn't want to get a puncture or anything. The next one is very tricky so I wanted to protect my tyres, This one is cleaning like crazy. Not the best morning.

13. 03. 2026 14:34 CET 		4 flash info (22 - Mikkelsen Andreas / Listerud Jørn): We lost too much time yesterday so we tried to catch some time but 1m45sec is a Rally Greece 2023 mission. It is not impossible. I pushed where I thought it was comfortable.
13. 03. 2026 16:34
13. 03. 2026 14:34 CET 		4 flash info (21 - Virves Robert / Viilo Jakko): I'm just hesitating. It is quite tricky and narrow. There is still a long way to go. There is no drama.

13. 03. 2026 14:30 CET 		4 flash info (4 - Lappi Esapekka / Mälkönen Enni): It was very safe. Well part of it is strategy and part of it is I can't make the car turn. I have to drive slowly as I cannot commit at all.
13. 03. 2026 16:29
13. 03. 2026 14:29 CET 		4 flash info (5 - Pajari Sami / Salminen Marko): Not great feeling at all, we need to reverse once. I was sure we were going to roll. On one of the tight corners we already pretty much on our side and we needed to correct, I lost easily some seconds in there.
13. 03. 2026 16:29
13. 03. 2026 14:29 CET 		4 flash info (1 - Ogier Sébastien / Landais Vincent): Great stage but obviously the minute lost yesterday won't be easy to get back. At least we enjoyed that one. It is very bumpy and we have good suspension but we on the limit.
13. 03. 2026 16:29
13. 03. 2026 14:29 CET 		4 flash info (11 - Neuville Thierry / Wydaeghe Martijn): I stalled the engine under braking and the car was sliding straight, I had to restart the engine and I lost maybe five or six seconds. It is very difficult the car is bouncing in every direction.

13. 03. 2026 16:27
13. 03. 2026 14:27 CET 		4 flash info (18 - Katsuta Takamoto / Johnston Aaron): It is a bit of mix of dry and mud. Now I have pacenotes so it it so much better than yesterday. It is difficult to know where the mud is or not. It is ok.
13. 03. 2026 16:27
13. 03. 2026 14:27 CET 		4 flash info (99 - Solberg Oliver / Edmondson Elliott): I lost about 10secs. It was dry all the way but this one right was very muddy. It was just one of them really. I had a terrible feeling too as it is so bumpy and tough.

We had a very careful approach, but anyway, I couldn't see anything at the end. I was just following the treetops, trying to understand where the road was going. So a very tough start, and we tried to attack a little bit on this one. It's still a long rally to go. Nothing is lost.

12. 03. 2026 16:59
12. 03. 2026 14:59 CET 		1 flash info (95 - Armstrong Jon / Byrne Shane): I think we basically just survived, It was really difficult to have any rhythm with the amount of water in the ruts.

12. 03. 2026 14:53 CET 		1 flash info (11 - Neuville Thierry / Wydaeghe Martijn): We need a boat in there or something else than a rally car. I took it carefully you don't know where it is slippery and what is behind the corner. Nothing is working everything is soo cold, the brakes. The rally is long, anything can happen.
12. 03. 2026 16:53
12. 03. 2026 14:53 CET 		1 flash info (16 - Fourmaux Adrien / Coria Alexandre): It is proper Kenya style now. There is very heavy rain in the stage. You trust the grip some time and then you just lose it. I saw many guys going wide and was afraid of punctures. That was a crazy stage.
12. 03. 2026 16:52
12. 03. 2026 14:52 CET 		1 flash info (18 - Katsuta Takamoto / Johnston Aaron): No way! Before the start we lost the connection with Aaron all the way through without pacenotes.

12. 03. 2026 14:51 CET 		1 flash info (33 - Evans Elfyn / Martin Scott): Can't believe we're in this position again, I can't see anything, we were saved a bit by the rain in the end, but can't see anything.
12. 03. 2026 16:51
12. 03. 2026 14:51 CET 		1 (18 - Katsuta Takamoto / Johnston Aaron): issues with intercom

12. 03. 2026 12:35 CET 		SHAKEDOWN flash info (25 - Domínguez Diego / Peñate Rogelio): That time is unbelievable. We know what to do now. We didn't expect to go so fast.
12. 03. 2026 14:35
12. 03. 2026 12:35 CET 		SHAKEDOWN flash info (24 - Jürgenson Romet / Oja Siim): You can't be ready for this event. On the last corner we had a one metre stone in the middle of the road. I haven't seen such a stone like that in the road before. It is going to be a crazy week.
12. 03. 2026 14:34
12. 03. 2026 12:34 CET 		SHAKEDOWN flash info (23 - Zaldivar Fabrizio / Der Ohannesian Marcelo): It has been a while and it is good to be back. I'm looking forward to the weekend and it think it will be tough for the car and I think we need to be clever.
12. 03. 2026 14:34
12. 03. 2026 12:34 CET 		SHAKEDOWN flash info (22 - Mikkelsen Andreas / Listerud Jørn): It is cool to be here. What we have seen on the recce is that it is going to be a very rough rally and it will be more about survival than speed.
12. 03. 2026 14:34
12. 03. 2026 12:34 CET 		SHAKEDOWN flash info (21 - Virves Robert / Viilo Jakko): What can I say? I think it is going to be a bumpy ride for sure and with the rain we can also swim quite a bit so it is not easy for sure. There are quite many surprises already here.
12. 03. 2026 14:34
12. 03. 2026 12:34 CET 		SHAKEDOWN flash info (20 - Greensmith Gus / Andersson Jonas): One puncture already. Engine feels quite slow but I think it is the altitude. A hat-trick of wins would be lovely.
12. 03. 2026 14:34
12. 03. 2026 12:34 CET 		SHAKEDOWN flash info (55 - McErlean Joshua / Treacy Eoin): The recce in itself was quite crazy. There is long weekend ahead. We were here to have fun and try to have some good pace.
12. 03. 2026 14:33
12. 03. 2026 12:33 CET 		SHAKEDOWN flash info (95 - Armstrong Jon / Byrne Shane): It has been some adventure before we have even turned a competitive mile. The recce is something I have nothing seen before with the big swamps. I was joking that Shrek may be angry as we are driving through his swamp.
12. 03. 2026 14:33
12. 03. 2026 12:33 CET 		SHAKEDOWN flash info (4 - Lappi Esapekka / Mälkönen Enni): I believe it is the same lottery as you have in Europe you buy a ticket and you hope for the best. It is going to be a bit like that. It is going to be very wild this year.
12. 03. 2026 14:33
12. 03. 2026 12:33 CET 		SHAKEDOWN flash info (5 - Pajari Sami / Salminen Marko): Of course we are excited. Toyota has been really strong on this rally but this is more like an adventure. It will be a long race and I need to be clever and manage the speed as well.
12. 03. 2026 14:33
12. 03. 2026 12:33 CET 		SHAKEDOWN flash info (1 - Ogier Sébastien / Landais Vincent): It looks more challenging than ever. The rain has been intense so some sections will be very challenging and it will be about survival.
12. 03. 2026 14:32
12. 03. 2026 12:32 CET 		SHAKEDOWN flash info (11 - Neuville Thierry / Wydaeghe Martijn): I don't think anyone can predict the final result here this weekend. It is going to be a good adventure and I'm looking forward. We need to find the fine line of going fast enough. It won't be easy
12. 03. 2026 14:32
12. 03. 2026 12:32 CET 		SHAKEDOWN flash info (16 - Fourmaux Adrien / Coria Alexandre): It is always a pleasure to come back to Kenya. The rally will be challenging as it is always like that.

12. 03. 2026 12:32 CET 		SHAKEDOWN flash info (18 - Katsuta Takamoto / Johnston Aaron): The car is very strong but of course a new challenge ahead. It is even more rough in sections. We will try to get a good result here.
12. 03. 2026 14:32
12. 03. 2026 12:32 CET 		SHAKEDOWN flash info (99 - Solberg Oliver / Edmondson Elliott): It has been a incredibly trip so far, amazing to be on a wildlife safari. This morning was definitely another Safari. It was a really tricky stage with a lot of rocks. It is going to be a proper challenge.
12. 03. 2026 14:32
12. 03. 2026 12:32 CET 		SHAKEDOWN flash info (33 - Evans Elfyn / Martin Scott): It is looking like it is going to be a tough weekend and not specifically for any road position. It is very extreme conditions and we have seen a bit of everything. It is definitely up there. Last year was already a challenge but this year looks even more I would say.
13. 03. 2026 16:30
13. 03. 2026 14:30 CET 		(55 - McErlean Joshua / Treacy Eoin): water temperature issue, car in road mode
