Information
Date and time SS Information
13.11.2022 12:11 19 flash info (69 - Rovanperä Kalle / Halttunen Jonne): It was quite interesting stages in the rain with these tyres. We are here and that's the main thing. It's good to end the season - I've been waiting for it for a long time! It takes a lot of strength to fight for the title and I'm ready for the holidays now.
13.11.2022 04:11 18 flash info (69 - Rovanperä Kalle / Halttunen Jonne): It was one of the slippiest and trickiest stages I have ever done!
13.11.2022 01:11 16 flash info (69 - Rovanperä Kalle / Halttunen Jonne): We found some things on the car which are nice to drive. It's not so bad. The surface on this one was trickier than we expected - I was expecting it to be more consistent but there were some grip changes and damp places as well.
13.11.2022 00:11 15 flash info (69 - Rovanperä Kalle / Halttunen Jonne): We are using this day for testing for next year. We will hopefully get the car a bit better and find some new things for the balance of the car.
12.11.2022 16:11 12 flash info (69 - Rovanperä Kalle / Halttunen Jonne): We found some things which work but definitely on this stage it's not working. In the beginning of the stage I could not do much more with the car and I am not on a crazy place, so of course we are not so fast.
12.11.2022 16:11 11 flash info (69 - Rovanperä Kalle / Halttunen Jonne): Nothing special, we are just trying some new setups. We were feeling them out at the beginning and not pushing.
12.11.2022 02:11 10 flash info (69 - Rovanperä Kalle / Halttunen Jonne): It should be no issue getting to service. We will just try to get there and fix the car so we can enjoy the afternoon a bit more.
12.11.2022 02:11 10 (69 - Rovanperä Kalle / Halttunen Jonne): went through with punctured tyre from SS 8
12.11.2022 00:11 9 flash info (69 - Rovanperä Kalle / Halttunen Jonne): There was something on a right-hand corner where we got a bit close but it was not a big hit. I have no spares and the car is not 100 per cent on the right corner. It's not working and turning in as well as it should.
11.11.2022 23:11 8 flash info (69 - Rovanperä Kalle / Halttunen Jonne): I went a bid wide in one corner and had a puncture. We had to change it on the stage.
11.11.2022 23:11 8 (69 - Rovanperä Kalle / Halttunen Jonne): puncture, changing tyre
11.11.2022 23:11 8 (69 - Rovanperä Kalle / Halttunen Jonne): was out of road
11.11.2022 12:11 6 flash info (69 - Rovanperä Kalle / Halttunen Jonne): It was okay. This one was pretty okay with the grip. On the wide parts it's not easy and we have been struggling with understeer the whole day, so I didn't have full confidence.
11.11.2022 12:11 5 flash info (69 - Rovanperä Kalle / Halttunen Jonne): We tried to change the balance of the car a bit. It can be better in places now in this loop. It was not so bad in this stage so let's see what it's like in the other one with a bit more space.
10.11.2022 23:11 2 flash info (69 - Rovanperä Kalle / Halttunen Jonne): Quite bad. I had a lot of understeer and on these kinds of roads you kill the front tyres and you can not drive at all. Halfway through the stage something started to smoke in the cabin - we're not sure what it is so we have to check.
10.11.2022 12:11 1 flash info (69 - Rovanperä Kalle / Halttunen Jonne): A normal start - nothing special. Friday will be a really long day with some tough and narrow stages. It's something we haven't really experienced before so it will be a brand-new challenge.
