Information
Date and time SS Information
20.05.2018 16:05 20 flash info (3 - Suninen Teemu / Markkula Mikko): The feeling is so great, first podium ever in the WRC. It took a year, but I'm so happy.
20.05.2018 16:05 19 flash info (3 - Suninen Teemu / Markkula Mikko): It has been really consistent speed, now my driving has been more efficient. I've been taking it carefully and the speed has come. I don't want to think about the podium, just doing the best work I can.
20.05.2018 16:05 17 flash info (3 - Suninen Teemu / Markkula Mikko): I really want to be on the podium - we are pushing quite a lot.
20.05.2018 16:05 16 flash info (3 - Suninen Teemu / Markkula Mikko): Everything is tough but luckily it is only 0.6sec. It was soft on the first few corners, I just need to improve the driving and I believe we can do it.
20.05.2018 16:05 15 flash info (3 - Suninen Teemu / Markkula Mikko): Wasn't the best run for me, at the beginning I was struggling the balance of the car when the hard and softs were crossed - I need to learn how to drive the car when it is like this.
20.05.2018 16:05 14 flash info (3 - Suninen Teemu / Markkula Mikko): It is hard to be faster than him, but hard tyres in the mud meant no grip at all. I think we were better in the mid-section when it was a bit drier.
20.05.2018 16:05 13 flash info (3 - Suninen Teemu / Markkula Mikko): That's rallying when we're driving on the limit! There's not so many places where we can gain a lot of time, the road is clearing so it is benefitting the cars behind but we are on the limit.
20.05.2018 16:05 12 flash info (3 - Suninen Teemu / Markkula Mikko): No real issues, just a few times late on the throttle but it has quite a big effect. It is so sandy that it isn't cleaning after one car or two cars.
20.05.2018 15:05 11 flash info (3 - Suninen Teemu / Markkula Mikko): I'd have liked a bit more of a gap over Lappi. The surface was quite aggressive so there was a bit of movement.
20.05.2018 15:05 10 flash info (3 - Suninen Teemu / Markkula Mikko): It wasn't the best run, I wasn't flat out pushing. I need to be on the limit to get the best times.
20.05.2018 15:05 6 flash info (3 - Suninen Teemu / Markkula Mikko): I tried, but still I lost a few tenths but it looks like we need to drive flat out and hope for the best. The next one is a long stage and it is difficult to make all the corners perfectly.
20.05.2018 14:05 5 flash info (3 - Suninen Teemu / Markkula Mikko): It was quite okay run, a few mistakes meant I good have gone a bit faster though.
20.05.2018 13:05 2 flash info (3 - Suninen Teemu / Markkula Mikko): It is a new car for me on these stages, I did some mistakes but let's be fast on the next one.
