Information
Date and time SS Information
25.06.2023 13:06 19 flash info (4 - Lappi Esapekka / Ferm Janne): I really tried to give it everything I could. It wasn't easy when you don't do the first pass of a stage at a fast speed but it was a good run through. Nice to end the rally with a clean stage.
25.06.2023 12:06 18 flash info (4 - Lappi Esapekka / Ferm Janne): It should be possible, but the thing is that it's not so simple to go really fast when you are doing the stage for the first time fast. Let's see if the car can take it when I push full throttle.
25.06.2023 12:06 16 flash info (4 - Lappi Esapekka / Ferm Janne): I am not sure what the problem is at the moment but it's only front-wheel drive. Maybe it's something with the propshaft, it might be twisted, but the rear diff isn't working at all.
25.06.2023 12:06 14 flash info (4 - Lappi Esapekka / Ferm Janne): The propshaft is broken already so I don't really know if there is any sense. It happened three kilometres before the finish...
25.06.2023 12:06 14 (4 - Lappi Esapekka / Ferm Janne): broken propshaft
24.06.2023 13:06 11 retired (4 - Lappi Esapekka / Ferm Janne): technical problem - propshaft in SS 11
24.06.2023 12:06 10 flash info (4 - Lappi Esapekka / Ferm Janne): It was okay. I mean, we were never really on the limit, but these muddy places - wow! I have never experienced anything like this before. When you see the puddles and mud, you brake like absolutely everything and then you see if you survive. If the road is narrow you will hit everything!
24.06.2023 12:06 9 flash info (4 - Lappi Esapekka / Ferm Janne): It's a bloody long way to go still! Every stage is very tricky, anything can happen in every stage.
24.06.2023 12:06 8 flash info (4 - Lappi Esapekka / Ferm Janne): All Ok, no drama, bit tricky in the first 2km with puddles and mud so quite a few surprises. On the fast section over there, I was too slow.
23.06.2023 15:06 7 flash info (4 - Lappi Esapekka / Ferm Janne): It was just a clean stage, I didn't try to do anything special. I was a bit careful but I think you should be in these conditions.
23.06.2023 15:06 6 flash info (4 - Lappi Esapekka / Ferm Janne): It was okay. All good. It's a different kind of challenge but I like it.
23.06.2023 15:06 5 flash info (4 - Lappi Esapekka / Ferm Janne): It more slippy than in the morning which I was not expecting. In some corners at the beginning you have good grip then it becomes really bad.
23.06.2023 10:06 4 flash info (4 - Lappi Esapekka / Ferm Janne): Just suddenly it went empty, that's it.
23.06.2023 10:06 4 (4 - Lappi Esapekka / Ferm Janne): puncture
23.06.2023 10:06 3 flash info (4 - Lappi Esapekka / Ferm Janne): There is still Taka and Dani coming, we don't know about the time yet. The stage here is clear and more like Finland style as well. On the previous one, the guys made big cuts which I didn't do, so for sure i lost a lot of time over there. I think the next 10 stages are not so simple!
23.06.2023 10:06 2 flash info (4 - Lappi Esapekka / Ferm Janne): We stayed on the road the whole time, so this is a good start! I don't know about the time but I don't believe it will be really massive. I didn't use all the open space. It's a discovery.
