Information
Date and time SS Information
27.08.2023 22:08 13 flash info (2 - Østberg Mads / Barth Patrik): It didn't feel so well, we had quite big understeer. We tried to change the setup in service so the feeling was better, but it felt the same. Way too much understeer, I don't have the ability to be faster.
20.08.2023 16:08 13 retired (2 - Østberg Mads / Barth Patrik): retired after SS 13
27.08.2023 22:08 12 flash info (2 - Østberg Mads / Barth Patrik): I think the hard tyre is the best tyre to be honest, it's quite an open stage, wider, it's much more of a racing stage. You have a few places with gravel which can also take you out, as we saw with Hayden, but also some forest sections too. It doesn't feel like we are going to win the Power Stage but I have been cruising recently and I need to get into racing mode.
27.08.2023 22:08 11 flash info (2 - Østberg Mads / Barth Patrik): It's a bit boring but it's not difficult cause I just reduce the speed, I was just saying as we passed the finish line it's a shame we're not pushing, but we need to focus on bringing the car to the Power Stage.
27.08.2023 22:08 10 flash info (2 - Østberg Mads / Barth Patrik): Normally we're good, so we'll see on the next pass.
27.08.2023 22:08 9 flash info (2 - Østberg Mads / Barth Patrik): The target is to get through the day and do the last stage, so we are just cruising at the moment.
27.08.2023 22:08 8 flash info (2 - Østberg Mads / Barth Patrik): Let's see if we can get the car through the day, that's the ambition. To go to the Power Stage, until then it's in road mode.
