Information
Date and time SS Information
27.10.2013 15:10 15 flash info (4 - Østberg Mads / Andersson Jonas): We saw yesterday afternoon, when things are working, we are good on tarmac. On tarmac if the setup is slightly off I do not have the confidence. I am very happy to see that we are back on gravel speed again.
27.10.2013 14:10 14 flash info (4 - Østberg Mads / Andersson Jonas): Very nice and comfortable, I am really enjoying the stages, not a lot to fight for but we are making good times. The car is much better now with the new settings. It was a quick stage. I liked it, and I had the opportunity to push harder.
27.10.2013 13:10 13 flash info (4 - Østberg Mads / Andersson Jonas): For sure it is cleaning, quite good for us. I will keep fighting in the last two stages.
27.10.2013 11:10 12 flash info (4 - Østberg Mads / Andersson Jonas): It is quite a good stage, I am too careful in the dust and we lose quite a lot there.
27.10.2013 10:10 11 flash info (4 - Østberg Mads / Andersson Jonas): We kept the car moving, but nearly in a few places. It is difficult to take risks now in my position, I cannot catch anyone.
27.10.2013 08:10 10 flash info (4 - Østberg Mads / Andersson Jonas): he stage is beautiful. Lot of dust in the stage, difficult when you are not pushing flat out to take the risks that you have to take. I’m happy with the driving, the car feels fine, and I hope today will be better than the previous days.
26.10.2013 18:10 9 flash info (4 - Østberg Mads / Andersson Jonas): Thought I was going to loose a lot of time on this stage because of my long first gear, but it was so slippery and so much wheel spin, maybe it did not make much difference.
26.10.2013 12:10 8 flash info (4 - Østberg Mads / Andersson Jonas): We have got to the point where we can start to play around with the setup. We tried a little bit before this one, things worked so well. This was quite okay stage and a good way to end the tarmac.
26.10.2013 11:10 7 flash info (4 - Østberg Mads / Andersson Jonas): It is definitely better, I think we improve a bit more. The confidence is better, it starts to feel lot better, I am actually starting to enjoy myself.
26.10.2013 10:10 6 flash info (4 - Østberg Mads / Andersson Jonas): Definitely we found some more on the setup. Now I just made a big step. I think there is something wrong with my right front as there is a lot of understeer in right hand corners, but not in left hand corners.
26.10.2013 09:10 5 flash info (4 - Østberg Mads / Andersson Jonas): It was ok, it felt a little bit better. It is going in a better direction and at least I feel more comfortable. Trying to push even more.
26.10.2013 08:10 4 flash info (4 - Østberg Mads / Andersson Jonas): We try to change the setup of the car a little bit. I felt it quite good in some places but quite a bit of understeering. I think it will be better on the faster stages, but we will see. We want to be fast.
25.10.2013 23:10 3 flash info (4 - Østberg Mads / Andersson Jonas): This one was quite good. It was about finding the right gear, unfortunately we have the long ratio gearbox in the car.
25.10.2013 22:10 2 flash info (4 - Østberg Mads / Andersson Jonas): I don't know exactly. I cannot find any rhythm. Car is ok. I don't know exactly but I don't trust my pacenotes, I can feel through the stage that the pace notes are changing. Some places changing quite quickly, I don't really trust them.
25.10.2013 20:10 1 flash info (4 - Østberg Mads / Andersson Jonas): Driving was not perfect, but I am not happy with the car either. I can change both. I need to go a lot harder on the car.
