Information
Date and time SS Information
30.09.2024 00:09 16 flash info (11 - Neuville Thierry / Wydaeghe Martijn): We knew it would be a challenging weekend, we did not have the performance package this weekend, it was visible to everybody we could not fight the Toyotas. We have two more events this year, we are looking forward for them to come and I am happy the gravel is over.
29.09.2024 23:09 15 flash info (11 - Neuville Thierry / Wydaeghe Martijn): It was okay, I had a good stage to be honest. I felt more comfortable in the ruts, I put two new tyres on to see if it helps. I think we did a good stage.
29.09.2024 23:09 14 flash info (11 - Neuville Thierry / Wydaeghe Martijn): It's a bit on the limit to be honest, super quick stage, very bad visibility, obviously we need to keep it on the road. I need to find the line between a good rhythm and not driving too fast. You can see the fog moving, different conditions for everybody, we know that with a little bit of luck it will work but with a little bit it will not work, so we will keep trying.
29.09.2024 23:09 13 flash info (11 - Neuville Thierry / Wydaeghe Martijn): Overall, the target for us is claim the points from yesterday, see if we can take some today. I think we could've done more, but with the feeling we had we did what we could.
29.09.2024 23:09 12 flash info (11 - Neuville Thierry / Wydaeghe Martijn): We did exactly what we had to do, we had a good rhythm. We did the maximum which was possible today. We don't get it 100 percent right. I could've done a bit more in here but I think it's impossible to catch Tänak, so we will do what we have to do.
29.09.2024 23:09 11 flash info (11 - Neuville Thierry / Wydaeghe Martijn): It looked like it was the most beautiful day at the top, but no. I just tried to get through.
29.09.2024 23:09 10 flash info (11 - Neuville Thierry / Wydaeghe Martijn): Really good, clean stage. Following our plan, yesterday we really struggled with the road position, today everything changed. The ones in the front are too far away, so we are in a situation where we need to be clever. Tomorrow is another day, we have a good road position for tomorrow.
29.09.2024 23:09 9 flash info (11 - Neuville Thierry / Wydaeghe Martijn): A tough morning for us, we are carrying some serious problems all morning. Luckily we are here now, we are going back to service and fix the car. The wipers were stuck mid stage so I couldn't see anything.
29.09.2024 23:09 8 flash info (11 - Neuville Thierry / Wydaeghe Martijn): More or less OK, I didn't think about Ogier, he was anyhow behind. We think about ourselves.
29.09.2024 23:09 7 flash info (11 - Neuville Thierry / Wydaeghe Martijn): Not too bad to be honest, it's very slippery out there and the softs would've been the best choice for this stage. A few more to come which are quite abrasive. We did some changes on the car, let's see if we get it working properly. We did some changes on the damper and springs yesterday afternoon, I need to get used to it.
29.09.2024 21:09 6 flash info (11 - Neuville Thierry / Wydaeghe Martijn): Challenging day out there, I never could really drive fast, every time we tried to push a bit we lost the car. I think we made a mistake in the setup. Let's see what we can do tomorrow, it's not easy we came here. We have to stick more or less with what we have, at least it will definitely be a better road position which is what we should have.
29.09.2024 21:09 5 flash info (11 - Neuville Thierry / Wydaeghe Martijn): It's a lot of loose in there, I don't know where it comes from to be honest. I was fighting with the car, we went a bit more and I was at least able to push a bit. Obviously, it is not so enjoyable. The last one was a bit tough, when there was a lot of cleaning we always struggle on the first day but our target is to fight back.
29.09.2024 21:09 4 flash info (11 - Neuville Thierry / Wydaeghe Martijn): I have zero grip, really trying to keep it on the line but it's not nice. Everywhere, it's just zero grip.
27.09.2024 15:09 3 flash info (11 - Neuville Thierry / Wydaeghe Martijn): It will be a long weekend for us that's for sure, I am fighting. There's not much more we can do. It will be a long weekend for us and we need to focus on ourselves.
27.09.2024 14:09 2 flash info (11 - Neuville Thierry / Wydaeghe Martijn): It's a lot of cleaning in there, not so nice. Much worse [than the first stage] and I have no grip so it is tough.
27.09.2024 13:09 1 flash info (11 - Neuville Thierry / Wydaeghe Martijn): Really challenging to be honest, the grip is basically zero. Like driving on ice at the beginning. We know what our target is, I didn't leave too much in there, we had a clean run through, but I need to improve a bit.
