Information
Date and time SS Information
17.11.2023 12:11 6 retired (11 - Neuville Thierry / Wydaeghe Martijn): accident in SS 6
17.11.2023 12:11 5 flash info (11 - Neuville Thierry / Wydaeghe Martijn): It was a challenging stage but obviously the conditions are a bit more straightforward.
17.11.2023 00:11 3 flash info (11 - Neuville Thierry / Wydaeghe Martijn): I couldn't see anything. I have done a lot of rallies in my life but I have never been scared as much as this morning.
16.11.2023 23:11 2 flash info (11 - Neuville Thierry / Wydaeghe Martijn): It's very difficult to watch the times in there. The road is changing all the time and also with the rain it makes it very tricky. Every time I tried to go a bit faster I lost the grip, so at the end I just took it steady.
16.11.2023 21:11 1 flash info (11 - Neuville Thierry / Wydaeghe Martijn): There are no questions from our side, just enjoyment and try to go for another victory. That's what we want to do this weekend but it won't be easy at all, and it might be even more difficult than two weeks ago in Germany after the road conditions we have seen during recce. It's going to be really challenging but I'm looking forward to it.
