Information
Date and time SS Information
08.10.2023 20:10 12 flash info (3 - Sesks Mārtiņš / Francis Renārs): It was a crazy year, a big thanks to MRF Tyres and everyone who is involved in this. The podium on Tarmac is good, Østberg is really fast. We weren't at their pace but it's nice to get a podium this weekend.
08.10.2023 20:10 11 flash info (3 - Sesks Mārtiņš / Francis Renārs): The brake pads are working fine, we have a softer tyre. I think it was too dry for a softer tyre but it's fine.
08.10.2023 19:10 10 flash info (3 - Sesks Mārtiņš / Francis Renārs): It's not bad, this stage was really fun. This concrete holds really well, you can push and move a bit on the side. You can over push in some places.
08.10.2023 19:10 9 flash info (3 - Sesks Mārtiņš / Francis Renārs): That's not bad. In some places we don't know how to drive, locals know better, but that's alright.
07.10.2023 18:10 8 flash info (3 - Sesks Mārtiņš / Francis Renārs): The other stage was good, this one I was unsure of. The Tarmac was different to the morning loop, I didn't push I was just steady through.
07.10.2023 17:10 7 flash info (3 - Sesks Mārtiņš / Francis Renārs): It was good fun, I was quite calm in the Gravel section because the first time there was a lot of punctures, so there was no risk there.
07.10.2023 16:10 6 flash info (3 - Sesks Mārtiņš / Francis Renārs): There is quite a lot of dirty places, with a lot of dirt, I think that is to be expected. There were some bumps I didn't expect in the gravel section, so I took it slowly.
07.10.2023 15:10 5 flash info (3 - Sesks Mārtiņš / Francis Renārs): I wasn't expecting to be so comfortable on these roads. We had some rim damage but it's alright we're here in service, we go again. It's the first time here for me, the surfaces change a lot. You have to adapt speed, driving style, everything. We have to be slow, steady and calm.
07.10.2023 15:10 4 flash info (3 - Sesks Mārtiņš / Francis Renārs): It is proven that the rally is tricky and this stage was also surprising, with the Tarmac. It's all about learning for us. You can easily make mistakes here.
07.10.2023 15:10 3 flash info (3 - Sesks Mārtiņš / Francis Renārs): Sometimes there is something that you don't expect, like in the first stage we got lucky and only damaged the rim. Some people are unlucky, it can be crazy here.
07.10.2023 15:10 2 flash info (3 - Sesks Mārtiņš / Francis Renārs): I don't know what happened there, there was some vibration but I don't know.
06.10.2023 22:10 1 flash info (3 - Sesks Mārtiņš / Francis Renārs): It felt like we were coming very unprepared, because there were some crazy weeks before the rally. Finishing it will be an achievement, how it goes will be the cherry on the cake.
