Information
Date and time SS Information
13.09.2015 08:09 17 flash info (5 - Evans Elfyn / Barritt Daniel): We have come to the end, not a lot we can take from the weekend, it has been very very tough. It is important to learn something from it and don’t have a weekend like this again.
13.09.2015 08:09 16 flash info (5 - Evans Elfyn / Barritt Daniel): Not really… Nothing wrong, just still struggling with the feeling still.
13.09.2015 01:09 14 flash info (5 - Evans Elfyn / Barritt Daniel): Really mixed grip in there, quite loose in places and then quite hard packed in others. It is still not 100% what I want.
13.09.2015 00:09 13 flash info (5 - Evans Elfyn / Barritt Daniel): Not so bad, we are not taking any big risks. It was not so bad in there. I am sure we could go faster and there are some better times to come. It is quite similar to the fourth stage on Friday and we were terrible in there! The feeling wasn’t too bad, there is no point in taking big risks.
12.09.2015 12:09 12 flash info (5 - Evans Elfyn / Barritt Daniel): Just broke away from me flat in 6th gear, it wouldn’t recover and we were really lucky to be honest. A massive moment.
12.09.2015 10:09 11 flash info (5 - Evans Elfyn / Barritt Daniel): I just can’t find a comfortable place for the car this weekend. I am understeering, oversteering everywhere. I am trying to do things, trying to relax, I just can’t get the car to do what I want. I am really struggling.
12.09.2015 04:09 10 flash info (5 - Evans Elfyn / Barritt Daniel): That wasn’t a great run in there. But we have a long run through Nambucca again this afternoon. We have to build on it and try to improve. The road seems to make it easier, it is wider and more flowing, it seem in the tighter sections I am struggling.
12.09.2015 03:09 9 flash info (5 - Evans Elfyn / Barritt Daniel): Definitely started a lot better. It was quite loose, as soon as we entered the narrow section in the trees the car started to move a lot and when we left that section, I didn’t seem to get my confidence back.
11.09.2015 11:09 8 flash info (5 - Evans Elfyn / Barritt Daniel): To be honest the feeling wasn’t great again. I felt the car had a mind of it’s own when we had any loose. I will have to check the tyres to see if we have any tread on them.
11.09.2015 11:09 7 flash info (5 - Evans Elfyn / Barritt Daniel): I am trying but I just seem to have no grip. In there the just seems to be sliding from corner to corner. I am really struggling. I am trying but I just don’t seem to have the grip.
11.09.2015 11:09 5 flash info (5 - Evans Elfyn / Barritt Daniel): More relaxed with the balance of the car. Some minor suspension settings.
11.09.2015 03:09 4 flash info (5 - Evans Elfyn / Barritt Daniel): I touched a bank, we had quite a big spin, it was quite a bit later we felt the puncture.
11.09.2015 03:09 4 (5 - Evans Elfyn / Barritt Daniel): puncture
11.09.2015 01:09 3 flash info (5 - Evans Elfyn / Barritt Daniel): A bit more committed but I am still struggling, not like I would like to be. The feeling really, struggling to get the car turned in. We have to go back to base and see what e can do.
11.09.2015 01:09 2 flash info (5 - Evans Elfyn / Barritt Daniel): Not good for us at all, the times have not been good. We are struggling to find confidence in the car, it is quite loose. I am just not able to connect.
11.09.2015 00:09 1 flash info (5 - Evans Elfyn / Barritt Daniel): I didn’t push, it was quite loose so I tried to be clean. I need to push harder.
