04.08.2024 13:08 20 flash info (11 - Neuville Thierry / Wydaeghe Martijn): To be honest, real rollercoaster of emotion this weekend. Just like the stages, emotions were up and down, challenging weekend of course but I think we had a clever approach this weekend knowing it was hard to fight with the Toyotas. After our teams issues, we knew we had to bring the points home. We have to thank the team, hopefully they get a bit of holiday and a rest as we have some tough events coming up. I'm not surprised Ogier is a challenger, I think he could do the remaining events.
04.08.2024 12:08 19 flash info (11 - Neuville Thierry / Wydaeghe Martijn): I couldn't find the feeling at the beginning of the stage, I knew Elfyn was off. I struggled like hell to get the feeling. It went better at the beginning of the stage, but we have to be clever in that situation now and take the points we can for the weekend.
04.08.2024 12:08 18 flash info (11 - Neuville Thierry / Wydaeghe Martijn): We lost the rear on acceleration, there was enough room but we lost one or two tenths. Not so good feeling, we are just fighting and we are not so good on the balance. We are just fighting and trying to get home with a few points.
04.08.2024 12:08 17 flash info (11 - Neuville Thierry / Wydaeghe Martijn): That's a lot of time compared to Evans. I need to take too much risk if I want to go faster and there is no reason to take risk. We do worry about Super Sunday, but I don't need to go faster.
04.08.2024 02:08 16 flash info (11 - Neuville Thierry / Wydaeghe Martijn): For sure it waas much more enjoyable now, I am happy and relieved the day is over. If we can finish tomorrow it is some quite good points but we still have a job to do tomorrow. The rivals are the ones we look at, Ogier takes more points today, Fourmaux too. We'll see how Super Sunday goes.
04.08.2024 02:08 15 flash info (11 - Neuville Thierry / Wydaeghe Martijn): Everything is okay. Tricky conditions, I had a clean run. Interesting definitely, with the conditions. It's a big one but we gonna take it steady.
04.08.2024 02:08 14 flash info (11 - Neuville Thierry / Wydaeghe Martijn): Not really an improvement, the conditions are rutted so the car stays more on the road. Trying a few different things. Tomorrow is an important day.
04.08.2024 02:08 13 flash info (11 - Neuville Thierry / Wydaeghe Martijn): To be honest it is scary, I was afraid all run long. I was happy to be at the finish. I don't know what to do, we have tried everything. We have done enough, we can't drive it.
04.08.2024 02:08 12 flash info (11 - Neuville Thierry / Wydaeghe Martijn): For me it is tricky from the beginning to the end, it is not fun to be honest. I can't get it working, we change may things, change the car all around. I do not have the confidence to attack. We're all over the place.
04.08.2024 00:08 11 flash info (11 - Neuville Thierry / Wydaeghe Martijn): I have no grip on the rear, I am sliding everywhere. I cannot commit. We need to work, I am not sure what to do. Conditions are not great, I can't get the car working.
02.08.2024 19:08 10 flash info (11 - Neuville Thierry / Wydaeghe Martijn): Very disappointed as team, we lost two cars in those circumstances so that is disappointing for everybody but that is racing. At least EP is back and Ott and Martin are both fine, that's the main thing. I look forward, beautiful stages tomorrow. Still need to improve the car a little bit but we'll get there.
02.08.2024 19:08 9 flash info (11 - Neuville Thierry / Wydaeghe Martijn): I had a good stage, we'll see the times very soon. It is very hard to predict, it is changing and switch all the time and the weather is changing every five minutes. One more stage to go. Other than a mistake we have done the best we can do today and we're ready for tomorrow.
02.08.2024 16:08 8 flash info (11 - Neuville Thierry / Wydaeghe Martijn): Pace was good, lots of standing water and the ruts were full of water in places. Nothing we can do.
02.08.2024 16:08 7 flash info (11 - Neuville Thierry / Wydaeghe Martijn): I had a clean run but not good conditions for us to be honest. It is quite wet in there, bit of water, muddy places. We are making the line, huge cuts, muddy water and I got mudded out. Not what I need. At the moment, we are not thinking about the podium, we are thinking about surviving and keeping an eye on Elfyn Evans.
02.08.2024 14:08 6 flash info (11 - Neuville Thierry / Wydaeghe Martijn): The first part was really good, lots of grip. But once you later hit the stage, the grip was really low. Very rutted section with lots of water. Not easy.
02.08.2024 12:08 5 flash info (11 - Neuville Thierry / Wydaeghe Martijn): Let's see, I had a clean stage with a little bit of drizzle. Could be an advantage to be first on the road sometimes. A few grip changes in there, little bit of graveling. We went straight on the last stage and we lost 12-13sec, so massive shame.
02.08.2024 12:08 4 flash info (11 - Neuville Thierry / Wydaeghe Martijn): Slightly dryer, definitely more constant grip, it is much harder to commit. Definitely fighting the car in some places, it is not where I want us to be. I don't think there is a disadvantage but I would like to have one or two cars in front to help dig the ground, as occasionally I am losing quite a bit of speed.
02.08.2024 12:08 3 flash info (11 - Neuville Thierry / Wydaeghe Martijn): The grip was a little bit more constant but I went straight on a junction, there was a blind corner over a crest, my pace note clearly didn't read a junction and we went straight onto the grass.
02.08.2024 12:08 3 (11 - Neuville Thierry / Wydaeghe Martijn): was out of road
02.08.2024 12:08 2 flash info (11 - Neuville Thierry / Wydaeghe Martijn): Very bad conditions, to be honest I had many small moments where the car didn't turn at all or just went into a huge slide. It is a disaster. No, nothing got sorted, I lose control. Really tough ride.
01.08.2024 21:08 1 flash info (11 - Neuville Thierry / Wydaeghe Martijn): It's a good start, but the real stuff starts tomorrow. We are looking forward, it was a difficult shakedown for us this morning and we had some problems with the car. Hopefully tomorrow everything is working like it should be.
