Information
Date and time SS Information
15.11.2015 13:11 19 flash info (8 - Paddon Hayden / Kennard John): A difficult weekend but we got the result we wanted. There have been improvements throughout the weekend. Huge thanks to the team. Now I'm looking forward to the new car - and a new me - in 2016.
15.11.2015 10:11 17 flash info (8 - Paddon Hayden / Kennard John): Lot of standing water. We can't do much about the manufacturers' championship if Kris stays where he is. Our priority is to keep Elfyn behind.
15.11.2015 12:11 16 flash info (8 - Paddon Hayden / Kennard John): The road was getting worse. The second half was quite slippy. It was certainly getting tricky. I tried to push and we've got to look for the grip. We certainly want to stay ahead of him. Elfyn is driving well. We've got to push a bit on the next one so we've got a bit of a margin the next time we come through here.
14.11.2015 21:11 15 flash info (8 - Paddon Hayden / Kennard John): An improvement on yesterday. We're not on the limit yet. Something to work on and a lot to learn.
14.11.2015 20:11 14 flash info (8 - Paddon Hayden / Kennard John): Not too bad. I enjoy the night stuff and the grip is good too. I'm just not driving very well. I've forgotten the basics. It should be better than this.
14.11.2015 18:11 13 flash info (8 - Paddon Hayden / Kennard John): We took a wrong turn after SS12 and went maybe 300 metres before we turned around. On the way back we collided with Martin who had made the same mistake. These things happen. We're lucky that for us it's just cosmetic damage. Unfortunately for Martin, he had to park up. We'll make the repairs now and hope for a better run. I love the dark and I'm looking forward to it.
14.11.2015 18:11 13 flash info (8 - Paddon Hayden / Kennard John): The damage from the crash (with Prokop) isn't causing problems, but the gearbox still isn't working properly. We don't know when the sequential system is working, or when I have to use the manual.
15.11.2015 03:11 12 (8 - Paddon Hayden / Kennard John): Crashed with Martin Prokop on liaison after SS 12.
15.11.2015 02:11 12 flash info (8 - Paddon Hayden / Kennard John): We clipped a hay bale. Very slippery. Gearbox issue in stage. Damaged the right front.
14.11.2015 13:11 11 flash info (8 - Paddon Hayden / Kennard John): It was jammed in gear, then I couldn't go any lower than third...
15.11.2015 02:11 9 flash info (8 - Paddon Hayden / Kennard John): The conditions are tricky but it's probably more enjoyable than the first pass. The grip's more consistent and not changing so much. We can't do anything stupid we have to keep pushing. We will keep doing our own thing.
15.11.2015 01:11 7 flash info (8 - Paddon Hayden / Kennard John): No problem for us, the car is working better today. The last half of the stage is getting chewed up already. The second pass is more even for everybody. The first guys get a smoother run but I'm not going to complain as we get an advantage on other rallies. The car's perfect. Adjusting to the conditions.
13.11.2015 16:11 6 flash info (8 - Paddon Hayden / Kennard John): We had a hydraulic problem that we were unable to fix, so that meant no paddle shift, no handbrake, no gear display [it's reading reverse at the finish]. All we could do is keep calm and get the car through.
13.11.2015 16:11 6 (8 - Paddon Hayden / Kennard John): having to use "supersafe" mode to get thru SS6 & long transit back to service
13.11.2015 16:11 5 (8 - Paddon Hayden / Kennard John): hydraulic problems on Paddon's car
13.11.2015 15:11 4 flash info (8 - Paddon Hayden / Kennard John): Had spin at start of stage and couldn’t restart car, lost 15-20s
13.11.2015 12:11 3 flash info (8 - Paddon Hayden / Kennard John): I'm trying. We're off the pace at the moment because I'm not trusting the grip. I'm trusting it more now, and this one was better.
13.11.2015 11:11 2 flash info (8 - Paddon Hayden / Kennard John): I'm focusing my attention on my driving at the moment.
13.11.2015 11:11 1 flash info (8 - Paddon Hayden / Kennard John): It looks like it's very slippery but the grip is not too bad. I'm not trusting the grip at all. What can I do? Give myself a slap in the face.
