Information
Date and time SS Information
12.02.2023 11:02 17 retired (18 - Katsuta Takamoto / Johnston Aaron): technical problem - engine after SS 17
12.02.2023 10:02 17 flash info (18 - Katsuta Takamoto / Johnston Aaron): A bit more gravel compared to the first pass. Not very easy but still very nice.
12.02.2023 07:02 16 flash info (18 - Katsuta Takamoto / Johnston Aaron): A very nice stage, I really like it. I had to check a few things but everything is fine.
11.02.2023 22:02 15 flash info (18 - Katsuta Takamoto / Johnston Aaron): These second loop conditions are something special, so it was good experience for me. It was very difficult, but we are here and we have some ideas to improve for the future.
11.02.2023 17:02 14 flash info (18 - Katsuta Takamoto / Johnston Aaron): Very slippery compared to the morning loop. We have quite worn tyres right now, so not so much grip.
11.02.2023 16:02 13 flash info (18 - Katsuta Takamoto / Johnston Aaron): Lots and lots of gravel. By the end of the stage the tyres were moving a lot.
11.02.2023 14:02 12 flash info (18 - Katsuta Takamoto / Johnston Aaron): There is no grip - it's quite a crazy feeling. But this is what Kalle dealt with yesterday.
11.02.2023 12:02 11 flash info (18 - Katsuta Takamoto / Johnston Aaron): This one is definitely the best conditions of the loop. The conditions are perfect and I really enjoyed this stage. This one should be okay on the next pass but other two will be quite messy.
11.02.2023 08:02 9 flash info (18 - Katsuta Takamoto / Johnston Aaron): We are here to drive and get more experience. It's very, very cold outside - before the stage I was almost freezing!
10.02.2023 16:02 6 retired (18 - Katsuta Takamoto / Johnston Aaron): technical problem - engine overheating in SS 6
10.02.2023 15:02 5 (18 - Katsuta Takamoto / Johnston Aaron): rolled
10.02.2023 11:02 4 flash info (18 - Katsuta Takamoto / Johnston Aaron): It's very, very high speed and I feel comfortable in the car. It's a little bit difficult to keep the car on the line, but all okay. I didn't push at all and just tried to be smooth.
10.02.2023 09:02 3 flash info (18 - Katsuta Takamoto / Johnston Aaron): I was very smooth and I had a quite rhythm. The car is working well, it's all good.
10.02.2023 08:02 2 flash info (18 - Katsuta Takamoto / Johnston Aaron): It's quite slippery in some sections because I think everybody is hitting the snowbanks quite a lot, so there is a lot of snow on the line. It's hard to say which road position is good, but I'm just focusing on my job and trying to do my best on the stages.
09.02.2023 22:02 1 flash info (18 - Katsuta Takamoto / Johnston Aaron): It felt okay grip-wise compared to the shakedown. I was a bit careful but the real stages start tomorrow. I will enjoy it.
