Information
Date and time SS Information
10.09.2023 14:09 15 flash info (18 - Katsuta Takamoto / Johnston Aaron): I was trying but then making too many mistakes and losing time. The car was working very well but I was not using this car on the limit. Not good, but let's see for the next one in Chile, I will try to do my best. We had some punctures and things but otherwise it was quite okay.
10.09.2023 14:09 14 flash info (18 - Katsuta Takamoto / Johnston Aaron): We overshot at the beginning of the stage. Tricky enough, to be honest. I was not pushing but there are surprisingly quite a lot of tricky sections. It's going to be tricky on the Power Stage.
10.09.2023 14:09 13 flash info (18 - Katsuta Takamoto / Johnston Aaron): Quite okay, just the conditions are not so great. Even on the first pass there are strange ruts from the recce day.
09.09.2023 19:09 12 flash info (18 - Katsuta Takamoto / Johnston Aaron): It was quite bad luck. In the first one already we had a problem and we managed to get to the second stage, but then we got two punctures. Not good luck but we are here. It was not so nice to drive avoiding all the rocks because basically it was full of rocks.
09.09.2023 19:09 11 flash info (18 - Katsuta Takamoto / Johnston Aaron): e had two punctures, we had to change both front tyres because it was quite early in the stage. There is a lot of loose rocks. It's quite bad but we will just keep going.
09.09.2023 19:09 11 (18 - Katsuta Takamoto / Johnston Aaron): another puncture
09.09.2023 19:09 11 (18 - Katsuta Takamoto / Johnston Aaron): puncture
09.09.2023 19:09 10 flash info (18 - Katsuta Takamoto / Johnston Aaron): At least I didn't spin! For sure, Dani Sordo has the better tyre in here, but for the next one we have the better option.
09.09.2023 19:09 9 flash info (18 - Katsuta Takamoto / Johnston Aaron): I don't know why, but I felt not so comfortable in the car. It was quite slippy and I expected better grip.
09.09.2023 19:09 8 flash info (18 - Katsuta Takamoto / Johnston Aaron): Incredibly slippery! It was quite surprising and not so fun to drive to be honest.
09.09.2023 19:09 7 flash info (18 - Katsuta Takamoto / Johnston Aaron): We spun. It was a very narrow section so I took so much time to get going again. Not good.
09.09.2023 19:09 7 (18 - Katsuta Takamoto / Johnston Aaron): spun
08.09.2023 16:09 6 flash info (18 - Katsuta Takamoto / Johnston Aaron): The conditions are horrible. I had to be careful in places, I don't want to drive this stage again!
08.09.2023 15:09 5 flash info (18 - Katsuta Takamoto / Johnston Aaron): It's very obvious that we have no grip here. It's quite hard to drive. Hopefully the next one should be better for us.
08.09.2023 12:09 4 flash info (18 - Katsuta Takamoto / Johnston Aaron): This kind of stage I haven't driven since last year, so I don't know. Maybe quite slippy but maybe not, it's hard to say.
08.09.2023 12:09 3 flash info (18 - Katsuta Takamoto / Johnston Aaron): The car is okay, I wasn't sure that the rut was so deep so I was a bit surprised by this bump. It's fine.
08.09.2023 12:09 2 flash info (18 - Katsuta Takamoto / Johnston Aaron): This is my shakedown for this rally, so I was just getting used to the road feeling and everything.
07.09.2023 22:09 1 flash info (18 - Katsuta Takamoto / Johnston Aaron): In rally, everything is possible - especially this time. The conditions are very mixed so we don't really know what's going to happen. I will try to enjoy and stay on the road.
