Information
Date and time SS Information
23.06.2023 15:06 7 flash info (18 - Katsuta Takamoto / Johnston Aaron): The puncture was maybe in the last 10km. There was a sharp stone in the ruts and I had no chance to avoid it. We also went a little bit wide in a high-speed section and there was a big branch.
23.06.2023 15:06 7 (18 - Katsuta Takamoto / Johnston Aaron): puncture
23.06.2023 15:06 6 flash info (18 - Katsuta Takamoto / Johnston Aaron): We are just focusing on our driving and luckily we have no water splashes today! There's a long way to go.
23.06.2023 10:06 4 flash info (18 - Katsuta Takamoto / Johnston Aaron): I am not happy. I had big damage on the front and we had to fix it before the stage. I was very slow in the stage and we lost a lot of time because of this.
23.06.2023 10:06 3 flash info (18 - Katsuta Takamoto / Johnston Aaron): Of course the roll on shakedown affected me a little bit but step by step I need to get back the feeling. This rally is not about going flat-out, I just to keep building my confidence.
23.06.2023 10:06 2 flash info (18 - Katsuta Takamoto / Johnston Aaron): I don't know if it's cleaning or not but I was quite careful. We will see - step by step moving forward and we will see how it's going.
22.06.2023 13:06 1 flash info (18 - Katsuta Takamoto / Johnston Aaron): Thanks to the team - they fixed the car perfectly and I had a very good feeling. This stage is one that you can really enjoy and it was very slippy. I will try to enjoy tomorrow.
