Date and time SS Information
07.02.2014 19:02 16 flash info (9 - Mikkelsen Andreas / Markkula Mikko): Its a long day tomorrow, still a lot to fight for.
07.02.2014 16:02 15 flash info (9 - Mikkelsen Andreas / Markkula Mikko): It has been a good day, we have driving quite smart and avoiding all the rocks.
07.02.2014 15:02 14 flash info (9 - Mikkelsen Andreas / Markkula Mikko): Nothing is wrong, clean stage, try to keep the pressure on without taking any risks. When you can fight for the win, you want to try.
07.02.2014 15:02 13 flash info (9 - Mikkelsen Andreas / Markkula Mikko): I try to keep some pressure but I am driving around every stone I see in the line. I am trying to take care of the tyres.
07.02.2014 13:02 12 flash info (9 - Mikkelsen Andreas / Markkula Mikko): Water temperature is high, I dont know why. I have to get moving.
07.02.2014 11:02 11 flash info (9 - Mikkelsen Andreas / Markkula Mikko): Its been a good morning, we are still in the fight for the lead. I am happy with my morning. It is so easy to make a mistake, we had a clean stage, not drama.
07.02.2014 11:02 10 flash info (9 - Mikkelsen Andreas / Markkula Mikko): We went out in a ditch in 4th or 5th gear and filled the whole front with snow. We were keeping up with Jari-Matti (Latvala) until then.
07.02.2014 10:02 10 (9 - Mikkelsen Andreas / Markkula Mikko): was out of road
07.02.2014 10:02 9 flash info (9 - Mikkelsen Andreas / Markkula Mikko): We took some new tyres and I think it was the right choice. This rally is all about tyres. I am trying to balance it, before I have been too eager in these situations. There is still room for improvements but then you start taking risks.
07.02.2014 08:02 8 flash info (9 - Mikkelsen Andreas / Markkula Mikko): So much loose snow in there. We started with used tyres on the rear. We did a good stage. Very tricky conditions, it is easy to do a mistake.
