Information
Date and time SS Information
27.06.2021 12:06 14 retired (11 - Neuville Thierry / Wydaeghe Martijn): broken suspension after SS 14
27.06.2021 12:06 14 (11 - Neuville Thierry / Wydaeghe Martijn): rear right suspension damaged
27.06.2021 01:06 13 flash info (11 - Neuville Thierry / Wydaeghe Martijn): I took quite some risks to try to keep on, because I knew Ogier was 12min in front on the road. He had probably a much drier road than us, but I kept pushing to not lose any time. I am really satisfied we are here.
27.06.2021 01:06 11 flash info (11 - Neuville Thierry / Wydaeghe Martijn): I had a nice clean stage, but I had to brake in the longest straight of the stage to avoid the zebra in the middle of the road. Other than that, it was a nice clean run.
27.06.2021 00:06 10 flash info (11 - Neuville Thierry / Wydaeghe Martijn): It went okay. I had a clean run - a lot of stones are moving, so a couple of times I had to slow down. I had a clean stage and took it maybe a little bit too careful on the last part.
25.06.2021 15:06 7 flash info (11 - Neuville Thierry / Wydaeghe Martijn): The biggest issues were the tyres in this stage, but obviously we got to the end. We need to go back to service now - there is some things to check.
25.06.2021 15:06 7 (11 - Neuville Thierry / Wydaeghe Martijn): double puncture
25.06.2021 14:06 6 flash info (11 - Neuville Thierry / Wydaeghe Martijn): It went quite okay. I tried to push, but in many places I had to slow a bit. I felt really strange at the end - I didn't get the speed I thought I would.
25.06.2021 14:06 5 flash info (11 - Neuville Thierry / Wydaeghe Martijn): Quite destroyed to be honest. The ruts are really deep - you are unable to get any speed because you are bottoming out all the time. Our cars are not high enough for those conditions really.
25.06.2021 12:06 4 (11 - Neuville Thierry / Wydaeghe Martijn): double puncture
25.06.2021 12:06 3 flash info (11 - Neuville Thierry / Wydaeghe Martijn): Incredibly rough. Very deep ruts - I was close to rolling the car a couple of times in the ruts, so I had to adapt the rhythm. I was really afraid that I would push the tyre off the rim. As we can see, we need to survive.
25.06.2021 12:06 3 (11 - Neuville Thierry / Wydaeghe Martijn): missed junction
25.06.2021 12:06 2 flash info (11 - Neuville Thierry / Wydaeghe Martijn): This is something! The ruts were much deeper than on the recce, and I struggled a bit with the understeer. The road is so narrow, so it's difficult to find the good line.
