31.07.2014 20:07 4 flash info (7 - Neuville Thierry / Gilsoul Nicolas): We struggle a little bit with pacenotes on the first two stages. The confidence is a bit better. On this last stage the chicanes have been completely destroyed and gravel all over the road, quite a different stage from the recce. Last year I was on the pace and this year I struggle a little bit in the beginning.
31.07.2014 18:07 3 flash info (7 - Neuville Thierry / Gilsoul Nicolas): Much better, but I am bottoming a lot and the car is jumping out of the line. Sometimes I could not hold the steering, it was really difficult. I try to stay on the clean line. The conditions are different from testing and I am missing some confidence.
31.07.2014 16:07 2 flash info (7 - Neuville Thierry / Gilsoul Nicolas): I struggle with the condition and my pacenotes are too slow, so I have to always overdrive with my pacenotes and this is not good for my confidence.
31.07.2014 15:07 1 flash info (7 - Neuville Thierry / Gilsoul Nicolas): I did not have perfect run, especially at the beginning I was too slow. I feel a lot of grip in the beginning, but it is taking a lot of the power. The road is getting more and more loose. Maybe I have to do a bit better myself.
