Information
Date and time SS Information
27.06.2021 13:06 18 flash info (44 - Greensmith Gus / Patterson Chris): I tried to drive smart and try and find the grip. It's been a pretty good weekend all-round, but let's see.
27.06.2021 12:06 16 flash info (44 - Greensmith Gus / Patterson Chris): Just can't afford to let off at the moment. I tried to keep it clean but some of the compressions throw you out of the line.
27.06.2021 12:06 15 flash info (44 - Greensmith Gus / Patterson Chris): It's hard to put into words this rally. One minute it's fine, the next it's going end over end - metaphorically.
27.06.2021 12:06 14 flash info (44 - Greensmith Gus / Patterson Chris): I didn't have any softs tyres left, so I was immediately at a disadvantage when it was damp in here. I had to get heat into the tyres so I had to push hard in there, but I have no grip.
27.06.2021 01:06 12 flash info (44 - Greensmith Gus / Patterson Chris): There were a few places I got caught out with the notes near the end, but generally it was okay. One more to go.
27.06.2021 01:06 11 flash info (44 - Greensmith Gus / Patterson Chris): The car all weekend has been really strong on a hard base. I'm just managing as best I can.
27.06.2021 00:06 10 flash info (44 - Greensmith Gus / Patterson Chris): I don't want to pick up any more punctures or anything like that. Just keep it clean - no issues.
27.06.2021 00:06 9 flash info (44 - Greensmith Gus / Patterson Chris): In there I was pretty cautious in places, just with a few of the rocks. Maybe I could have been a bit more aggressive, but I didn't want to take the wheel off doing it.
25.06.2021 16:06 7 flash info (44 - Greensmith Gus / Patterson Chris): Going up that hill - I do feel for Kalle, because you can't see anything. Luckily I smashed the wipers on and just kept it buried, but I feel for him.
25.06.2021 14:06 6 flash info (44 - Greensmith Gus / Patterson Chris): It seems okay. No issues - just took it pretty safe, because when it goes rough it's pretty crazy. In the last 3km we had a rear right puncture.
25.06.2021 14:06 5 flash info (44 - Greensmith Gus / Patterson Chris): We got some time penalty out of service, but the guys have done the best they can to bodge it. Hopefully it makes it to the end of the afternoon - if it fails we stop.
25.06.2021 12:06 4 flash info (44 - Greensmith Gus / Patterson Chris): Even in the last stage, I felt like I was driving slow, but we don't have any damping on the rear left it seems. And that's just the first pass!
25.06.2021 12:06 3 flash info (44 - Greensmith Gus / Patterson Chris): Horrific. And that's the first pass! Quite early on, we broke the anti-roll-bar at the back, so that wasn't pleasant. We'll keep going.
25.06.2021 12:06 2 flash info (44 - Greensmith Gus / Patterson Chris): For me, it felt so rough already. It's better to be at the front, for sure. We need to do some work to get the car turning a bit better.
