Information
Date and time SS Information
06.04.2014 13:04 16 flash info (7 - Neuville Thierry / Gilsoul Nicolas): One kilometer into the stage something on the transmission was broken. I had a spin with the rear wheel drive, it was not easy to drive. The weekend was much better than expected, I think we can be pleased with that. We still have a lot of work to do.
06.04.2014 13:04 16 (7 - Neuville Thierry / Gilsoul Nicolas): spun
06.04.2014 13:04 16 (7 - Neuville Thierry / Gilsoul Nicolas): problems with transmission
06.04.2014 11:04 15 flash info (7 - Neuville Thierry / Gilsoul Nicolas): Very tricky, I had no tyres left and on the last muddy section I was very careful. No moments I just drive through the stage, no pushing at all.
06.04.2014 09:04 14 flash info (7 - Neuville Thierry / Gilsoul Nicolas): It was ok, I had a good clean run. My tyres are quite worn on the rear so it was a bit slippy. The setup is quite ok, I think we can still improve but we have to do some testing on the damping side.
05.04.2014 18:04 13 (7 - Neuville Thierry / Gilsoul Nicolas): rear suspension damage
05.04.2014 18:04 12 flash info (7 - Neuville Thierry / Gilsoul Nicolas): I hit very slightly something, I can drive and everything is working, but the wheel is moving.
05.04.2014 16:04 11 flash info (7 - Neuville Thierry / Gilsoul Nicolas): The car is working quite good, I try to push a bit.
05.04.2014 13:04 10 flash info (7 - Neuville Thierry / Gilsoul Nicolas): That was okay. The car is okay, but it is very slippery so we have to take care.
05.04.2014 13:04 9 flash info (7 - Neuville Thierry / Gilsoul Nicolas): Its quite ok, I have to be a bit more careful, I still struggle with understeer. It is very tricky on the last part there are some corners that are very slippery and it is very easy to do a mistake.
05.04.2014 11:04 8 flash info (7 - Neuville Thierry / Gilsoul Nicolas): Right setup, at the beginning of the stage it was quite okay with my tyre choice. On this one I struggle with the understeer on the last part. I lost a bit of time in there.
04.04.2014 18:04 7 flash info (7 - Neuville Thierry / Gilsoul Nicolas): I started to lose a bit the tyres at the end. I took a bit carefully last stage. Tomorrow is a difficult day and a lot of things can happen."
04.04.2014 17:04 6 flash info (7 - Neuville Thierry / Gilsoul Nicolas): Conditions are quite ok (tyre choice) and I pushed hard. Good time.
04.04.2014 16:04 5 flash info (7 - Neuville Thierry / Gilsoul Nicolas): After two kilometres I understood the hard could be quicker (had soft tyres).The dampers are better.
04.04.2014 14:04 4 flash info (7 - Neuville Thierry / Gilsoul Nicolas): I am driving quite carefully. We have to work a bit on the settings, the stages are getting quite a bit rougher and in some places we were hitting on the sump guard. I was driving quite carefully, I do not want to damage the car.
04.04.2014 14:04 3 flash info (7 - Neuville Thierry / Gilsoul Nicolas): Its okay, I try to be careful in some places. In some corners it is better to be behind and in some corners it is better to be in front. Still the same car as in Mexico, but we know better the car.
04.04.2014 11:04 2 flash info (7 - Neuville Thierry / Gilsoul Nicolas): I had no splits, but I took it quite steady. I struggle with understeer. I took it too steady. Different technique from testing, it is moving a lot and I do not feel so confident at the moment.
