25.06.2023 14:06 19 flash info (69 - Rovanperä Kalle / Halttunen Jonne): I just felt I didn't have any power for the whole of the stage. A bit of a disappointing end to the weekend. You always want to fight for the win but we did our best starting first car on the road, so regarding that I think it's not fully bad. Good points for the season anyway.
25.06.2023 12:06 18 flash info (69 - Rovanperä Kalle / Halttunen Jonne): I didn't know we have a puncture... It was a proper Safari in there, really deep ruts. I just tried to go through.
25.06.2023 12:06 18 (69 - Rovanperä Kalle / Halttunen Jonne): puncture
25.06.2023 12:06 16 flash info (69 - Rovanperä Kalle / Halttunen Jonne): It was just one corner where I got caught out a bit in the ruts. I am not feeling good in the car, I am fighting way too much all the time. Especially here it doesn't work out, I am oversteering way too much.
25.06.2023 12:06 14 flash info (69 - Rovanperä Kalle / Halttunen Jonne): I don't think the others are really trying much. Let's see.
24.06.2023 16:06 13 flash info (69 - Rovanperä Kalle / Halttunen Jonne): Last year was slippy but nothing like this. Even on the straights, second gear was quite high-speed. We are here in one piece and that was the only goal for today.
24.06.2023 14:06 12 flash info (69 - Rovanperä Kalle / Halttunen Jonne): Definitely now, with EP also dropped out, there are such big gaps behind and if nothing happens it's impossible to catch Seb by driving. I don't want to take huge risks anymore.
24.06.2023 13:06 11 flash info (69 - Rovanperä Kalle / Halttunen Jonne): I am not really pushing too much. I am driving my own pace with quite a level speed in my opinion. I am not pushing a lot, let's see what happens. I am just doing my own thing and trying to bring the car to the end of the day.
24.06.2023 12:06 10 flash info (69 - Rovanperä Kalle / Halttunen Jonne): I think we could push a bit more but for sure Seb is pushing a lot for this win. In our case we need to think about the championship also, because the guys in the championship are much more behind and the good points are coming.
24.06.2023 12:06 9 flash info (69 - Rovanperä Kalle / Halttunen Jonne): It's a proper challenge again. Quite rough in some places and I made one mistake as well. But all good.
24.06.2023 12:06 8 flash info (69 - Rovanperä Kalle / Halttunen Jonne): You can always go quicker on this rally...it depends how much you want to push in the rough places...I tried to be smooth with the car but it doesn't work here. I had quite a lot of understeer on the stage but other than that it was a clean run and we were not too rough on the car, hopefully.
23.06.2023 15:06 7 flash info (69 - Rovanperä Kalle / Halttunen Jonne): It was quite okay. Quite soft in places with really big holes and stones and stuff, proper Safari-spec. A lot of surprises, and it's a high-speed stage so not easy.
23.06.2023 15:06 6 flash info (69 - Rovanperä Kalle / Halttunen Jonne): Quite a different style of stage, so for sure the understeer was not so big. A similar feeling but at least on this one it's not such a big issue.
23.06.2023 15:06 5 flash info (69 - Rovanperä Kalle / Halttunen Jonne): When the stage was drying up it got much slippier. I think we made a small mistake on the set-up because we expected to have more grip in the afternoon. I had a lot of understeer all the time, we are going to lose some time there for sure.
23.06.2023 10:06 4 flash info (69 - Rovanperä Kalle / Halttunen Jonne): It was a proper cleaning morning, but I think we did a good job. No mistakes, all the time I was happy with the driving. There are still many places which will clean a lot but I can be quite happy.
23.06.2023 10:06 3 flash info (69 - Rovanperä Kalle / Halttunen Jonne): This was much faster and wider than the previous stage. It's cleaning in here but it's more fast and open, maybe that will help.
23.06.2023 10:06 2 flash info (69 - Rovanperä Kalle / Halttunen Jonne): It was pretty okay to be honest. This one has a downhill section which was really bad and had a lot of loose gravel. It's going to clean a lot - I couldn't do much there.
22.06.2023 14:06 1 flash info (69 - Rovanperä Kalle / Halttunen Jonne): It's gonna be a new challenge this year. Different from last year. Definitely more rough. Let's try to do the same as last year. We just need to be steady and keep a good pace. At least the start was better.
