Information
Date and time SS Information
19.11.2023 12:11 22 flash info (17 - Ogier Sébastien / Landais Vincent): I enjoyed this season a lot and I am glad to have had this opportunity. The plan was only to do seven rallies but I pushed the team a little bit to be here. This is more than a dream result because now we have everybody across the line in 1-2-3.
19.11.2023 04:11 21 flash info (17 - Ogier Sébastien / Landais Vincent): We still have 7.5km to go, so we need to finish the job. For sure, so far it's looking good for the team.
19.11.2023 04:11 20 flash info (17 - Ogier Sébastien / Landais Vincent): It's not over yet, so I think there's no point to discuss the [potential] result. Let's see in two stages.
19.11.2023 01:11 19 flash info (17 - Ogier Sébastien / Landais Vincent): Unfortunately, a bit more of the same is still very tricky! It's definitely an extremely difficult rally from the start to the end.
19.11.2023 00:11 18 flash info (17 - Ogier Sébastien / Landais Vincent): I think we said this almost every stage, but it never gets easier this weekend. This one was one of the lowest in terms of grip so far.
18.11.2023 23:11 17 flash info (17 - Ogier Sébastien / Landais Vincent): It's more slippery than I thought, to be honest. We heard from the team that we need to be careful on Tänak's junction.
18.11.2023 12:11 16 flash info (17 - Ogier Sébastien / Landais Vincent): At the end the tyres didn't work so bad. The first loop was good but on the second lap they were struggling!
18.11.2023 12:11 15 flash info (17 - Ogier Sébastien / Landais Vincent): It's been a good day for us and we are happy to be at the end. We don't know what sort of surprises are going to wait for us tomorrow.
18.11.2023 12:11 14 flash info (17 - Ogier Sébastien / Landais Vincent): We thought we had seen the worst, but the weather always amazes us here! We had a message before the start that it should be dry but the wind is so strong that it is changing so quickly.
18.11.2023 12:11 13 flash info (17 - Ogier Sébastien / Landais Vincent): So far, so good. We have two hard tyres on the car and they are helping I think.
18.11.2023 03:11 12 flash info (17 - Ogier Sébastien / Landais Vincent): This morning was extremely damp and muddy in places. This one was the first time all weekend that we had grip on the stage.
17.11.2023 12:11 8 flash info (17 - Ogier Sébastien / Landais Vincent): I am glad my mechanics managed to fix the car. They did an amazing job again, so I think now the most important thing for us is to bring all three cars home.
17.11.2023 12:11 7 flash info (17 - Ogier Sébastien / Landais Vincent): Better than this morning... also because there was much less water. This kind of day, you are happy when you survive them because so many things can happen and so many things happened. This moment this afternoon cost us a bit of time but we are happy to still be here because it could have cost us a lot more.
17.11.2023 12:11 6 flash info (17 - Ogier Sébastien / Landais Vincent): For sure, we lost too much time this morning. After seeing Thierry off the road, we knew we didn't have to push so hard.
17.11.2023 12:11 5 flash info (17 - Ogier Sébastien / Landais Vincent): On one of the ditches, I caught the front and it made me go out and we just stopped in the barrier.
17.11.2023 12:11 5 (17 - Ogier Sébastien / Landais Vincent): was out of road
17.11.2023 00:11 3 flash info (17 - Ogier Sébastien / Landais Vincent): I can't see anything... look at my screen. I just tried to survive.
17.11.2023 00:11 3 (17 - Ogier Sébastien / Landais Vincent): fogged window
16.11.2023 23:11 2 (17 - Ogier Sébastien / Landais Vincent): Incredibly difficult, so I am happy to make it through. It's impossible to know if you are on the right rhythm. There is a little line in the pine needles, so for sure the first car on the road will have the worst conditions.
16.11.2023 21:11 1 flash info (17 - Ogier Sébastien / Landais Vincent): It's not really nice to lose four seconds straight away, but that's how it is. We need to check why. Of course, I was not taking so many risks but still it's a lot to lose.
