Information
Date and time SS Information
23.10.2015 17:10 9 flash info (7 - Neuville Thierry / Gilsoul Nicolas): We had a strange feeling in the last 5km but overall it was not such a bad day. We have to say thanks to the organisers for the three minutes gaps to reduce the dust.
23.10.2015 16:10 8 flash info (7 - Neuville Thierry / Gilsoul Nicolas): It was ok, a bit more confidence. Working in the right way now. Maybe not the best tyre management this afternoon. I have one badly worn on the front. Maybe six tyres would have been a better idea.
23.10.2015 16:10 7 flash info (7 - Neuville Thierry / Gilsoul Nicolas): We work a bit on the ride height, but the grip is better now. I struggle with the differential on the rear, I cannot change the pre-load, it feels like it is pushing from the rear.
23.10.2015 15:10 6 flash info (7 - Neuville Thierry / Gilsoul Nicolas): This stage was ok, the car is working a bit better in the slippery conditions. I thought the turbo pipe was gone, no power just for a few seconds then the power came back. Towards the end of the stage it was working properly again, we will have to investigate.
23.10.2015 12:10 5 flash info (7 - Neuville Thierry / Gilsoul Nicolas): I stalled the car twice and the car was way too low. I feel I have broken the car, it was bottoming all the time. Horrible.
23.10.2015 12:10 4 flash info (7 - Neuville Thierry / Gilsoul Nicolas): Not so bad, I think Mads is faster. I am quite happy with my time, it is ok. We have the good tyres for the next stage.
23.10.2015 11:10 3 flash info (7 - Neuville Thierry / Gilsoul Nicolas): The beginning of the stage was not so good, the end was better. We are moving a bit too much in the suspension. At the beginning of the stage it was quite slippy and when you make one mistake you lose the confidence.
23.10.2015 10:10 2 flash info (7 - Neuville Thierry / Gilsoul Nicolas): Mads was very quick. For me it was ok, but we are too soft at the rear, there is too much movement. We have to adjust the settings a bit.
22.10.2015 20:10 1 flash info (7 - Neuville Thierry / Gilsoul Nicolas): I had two soft and two hard tyres, split left and right, but I had a problem with the handbrake and locked the wheels a couple of times. I think the guys behind will be quicker.
