Information
Date and time SS Information
12.06.2016 13:06 19 flash info (20 - Neuville Thierry / Gilsoul Nicolas): We had a great weekend. Great things come to those who go and earn it. This result goes to Philippe Bugalski. He helped me a lot with my career and it would have been his birthday today. Hopefully this win will set me up for the rest of the season. A great confidence boost.
12.06.2016 12:06 18 flash info (20 - Neuville Thierry / Gilsoul Nicolas): That's pretty comfortable now. If I do no mistakes it should be okay. We will focus on bringing the car back home - that's more important than pushing for Power stage points.
12.06.2016 09:06 17 flash info (20 - Neuville Thierry / Gilsoul Nicolas): Jari-Matti never gives up. A pretty clean run but it's going to be tough for the car on the second pass here.
12.06.2016 09:06 16 flash info (20 - Neuville Thierry / Gilsoul Nicolas): A good stage for us. I tried to drive clean. The feeling is good and I'm much more comfortable with the balance of the car. I think we can continue like this.
11.06.2016 18:06 15 flash info (20 - Neuville Thierry / Gilsoul Nicolas): The car in slippy conditions is just amazing to drive. We can go pretty, pretty fast. We've done another good day. It's been a pleasure to be fighting Jari-Matti. I'm happy. It will be tough tomorrow but we're going to prepare properly and keep fighting.
11.06.2016 17:06 14 flash info (20 - Neuville Thierry / Gilsoul Nicolas): I started in heavy, heavy rain for the first six or seven kilometres. Very tricky. I tried to avoid the worst of the water splashes. We limited the damage at the end. I was expecting to lose much more.
11.06.2016 16:06 13 flash info (20 - Neuville Thierry / Gilsoul Nicolas): I pushed hard. I sweat a lot. In the last part the car was jumping like hell, hitting rocks.
11.06.2016 11:06 12 flash info (20 - Neuville Thierry / Gilsoul Nicolas): I gave everything. A pretty good run, no mistakes, but maybe I was slightly too careful near the end. It was difficult to keep the car in a clean line.
11.06.2016 09:06 11 flash info (20 - Neuville Thierry / Gilsoul Nicolas): The stage is so soft there's no way to get enough heat in these hard tyres.
11.06.2016 09:06 11 flash info (20 - Neuville Thierry / Gilsoul Nicolas): Always been a really fun stage. We have some damaged tyres from the previous stage so we had to fit two softs here.
11.06.2016 08:06 10 flash info (20 - Neuville Thierry / Gilsoul Nicolas): It was quite slippery. There was a lot of dust in the car and that distracted me - we went wide on one junction and that cost me a second or two.
10.06.2016 18:06 9 flash info (20 - Neuville Thierry / Gilsoul Nicolas): I think everybody is happy to see us back in the front. It increases our confidence. Tomorrow I hope to continue in the same rhythm and I hope it will be an interesting fight. We have had a lost of issues this year and the end of last year - it's well deserved.
10.06.2016 17:06 8 flash info (20 - Neuville Thierry / Gilsoul Nicolas): It's going well. The car was sliding a bit on this stage, so I didn't feel too comfortable, but a good run in the clean lines. Out of those it is difficult.
10.06.2016 16:06 7 flash info (20 - Neuville Thierry / Gilsoul Nicolas): Jari-Matti did well but I pushed hard and finally the time is nice. The car is working okay in these conditions. When the ruts are already there I can push the rear into them.
10.06.2016 15:06 6 flash info (20 - Neuville Thierry / Gilsoul Nicolas): I didn't feel really comfortable on stage. It was difficult for me. I took it a bit steady.
10.06.2016 12:06 5 flash info (20 - Neuville Thierry / Gilsoul Nicolas): Of course there is some road cleaning, which we try to turn to our advantage. Apart from the spin I think we can be pleased with the morning loop.
10.06.2016 11:06 4 flash info (20 - Neuville Thierry / Gilsoul Nicolas): I had a good stage but I spun near the finish and lost six or seven seconds.
10.06.2016 10:06 3 flash info (20 - Neuville Thierry / Gilsoul Nicolas): I don't know how it's possible for him to do these times. It's impossible to go that fast, they must have a lot of traction. I expected to take more time.
10.06.2016 09:06 2 flash info (20 - Neuville Thierry / Gilsoul Nicolas): The rear was moving far too much with the soft tyre at the rear and hards at the front. That knocked my confidence. I decided to take it carefully.
09.06.2016 19:06 1 flash info (20 - Neuville Thierry / Gilsoul Nicolas): The rally will be long. We have to get a decent start tomorrow and try to push.
