Information
Date and time SS Information
30.09.2022 08:09 7 flash info (11 - Neuville Thierry / Wydaeghe Martijn): It has been not a good day for us. I am still not 100 per cent confident in the car and we have some things we need to work on. In Greece I felt comfortable but in all the other rallies it's never feels good enough for me to push.
30.09.2022 08:09 6 flash info (11 - Neuville Thierry / Wydaeghe Martijn): Not easy. The tyres were quite dead on the rear and when the rain came it was quite difficult to keep the car in the line.
30.09.2022 08:09 5 flash info (11 - Neuville Thierry / Wydaeghe Martijn): Everybody is managing their tyres in there. I tried to do a good job and hopefully I didn't go too hard on the tyres. It would be good to get some rain for the next stages because, if not, we could be struggling - it's quite abrasive in there.
30.09.2022 00:09 4 flash info (11 - Neuville Thierry / Wydaeghe Martijn): Two stages, two spins. Very hard to keep the car in line, I don’t know if it’s the dampers or the suspension but I am not sure what we can do now. We will continue to lose time.
30.09.2022 00:09 4 (11 - Neuville Thierry / Wydaeghe Martijn): spun
29.09.2022 23:09 3 flash info (11 - Neuville Thierry / Wydaeghe Martijn): Just a spin, four corners before the finish. There was a bump with some water and the rear spun around and the engine stalled. I think there is damage, but it was quite narrow and not easy to recover.
29.09.2022 23:09 3 (11 - Neuville Thierry / Wydaeghe Martijn): spun
29.09.2022 12:09 1 flash info (11 - Neuville Thierry / Wydaeghe Martijn): It's hard to say, but anyhow, it's good to be back in New Zealand. The target is to carry on with the momentum we've had in the last couple of events and also for us after our win in Greece.
