Information

Date and time	SS	Information
20.10.2024 14:10	18	(11 - Neuville Thierry / Wydaeghe Martijn): It's not much help to say we could've won the title, a challenging event, we are in the rhythm after Friday. A small mistake happened, we had to manage our race, we wanted to bring it home. It wasn't to be this weekend. Japan is coming up and looking forward to it. Thank you to the team once again for the reliable car and sorry for the mistake.
20.10.2024 12:10	17	(11 - Neuville Thierry / Wydaeghe Martijn): It was OK, I made some setup changes to see if we can improve for the Wolf Power Stage. Decent run, not a push. The guys are fighting for victory so it would not be very sensible for us to fight with them as they are pushing for victory. Setup changes could be better, but I think we could go harder.
20.10.2024 11:10	16	(11 - Neuville Thierry / Wydaeghe Martijn): The car is not good. I was struggling like hell with the front, no precision, lots of movement. Just no confidence and the car won't turn, so bad. Different profile, I don't fit it so well. The road is getting dirty, lots of leaves and you don't know how the grip is so I tried to do as good as I can without risking.
20.10.2024 09:10	15	(11 - Neuville Thierry / Wydaeghe Martijn): If I see the conditions in there, I do not want to push too much. Many surprises, we had one big slide on the beginning because it was full of gravel. Even towards the end, the anticuts have been moved. It is not nice. Just a tiny bit, the others are able to cut and the road is dirty.
19.10.2024 17:10	14	(11 - Neuville Thierry / Wydaeghe Martijn): Obviously there is disappointment for sure, but the rally isn't over and tomorrow is an exciting day. We paid the price, it was mistake in the recce for the pace note, even now the note was slower and it was still too fast. I didn't see it last night as well, a bit disappointed about that but it is what it is.
19.10.2024 16:10	13	(11 - Neuville Thierry / Wydaeghe Martijn): Like we said before, disappointed. It is not the end, in the fight for the championship we are still on course. It is frustrating for sure, back on Tarmac we wanted to have a good race but we are thinking a lot about finishing the rally first.
19.10.2024 15:10	12	(11 - Neuville Thierry / Wydaeghe Martijn): We had a clean stage through, there is nothing we can do at the moment. Really disappointed for the mistakes this morning. Until there, there were no warnings and the pace is good. Just the one pace note. It is rallying and it is more predictable as well.
19.10.2024 11:10	11	(11 - Neuville Thierry / Wydaeghe Martijn): My pace notes were too fast, it's a wide road. Obviously in the dry it would have worked but my pace notes were too optimistic and the car never turned because it was too greasy, then we decided to go into a field and got stuck. The spin was a spin, but the second one I couldn't avoid. There was a way to get out, so I had to try. But we are here.
19.10.2024 11:10	11	(11 - Neuville Thierry / Wydaeghe Martijn): was out of road again
19.10.2024 11:10	11	(11 - Neuville Thierry / Wydaeghe Martijn): spun
19.10.2024 09:10	10	(11 - Neuville Thierry / Wydaeghe Martijn): It was okay, very tricky today. Much dirtier than expected and more dirty than yesterday surprisingly. It is what it is. Lots of cuts and anti cuts and they just pull out the dirt and we don't know how, it makes it challenging. We got through, we changed the setup a bit, I felt a bit better and we follow our plan. It is tricky, I didn't expect it but now we are in the rhythm.
19.10.2024 08:10	9	(11 - Neuville Thierry / Wydaeghe Martijn): Very sirty, very tricky so I have to take it steady in those conditions. It is very risky in there, I didn't want to make a mistake to open the day. I did what I have to do, let's see if it's the same on the later stages as it is much dirtier than expected.
18.10.2024 18:10	8	(11 - Neuville Thierry / Wydaeghe Martijn): I am happy to be at the end. It is easy to make a mistake and I knew the only thing that was important to us was to make it to the end. Some spots are falling of rain, but it is quite greasy in there, we so played it safe and came through.
18.10.2024 17:10	7	(11 - Neuville Thierry / Wydaeghe Martijn): We are just not fast enough, it was a clean stage but we are missing a bit of pace. The car feels nice to drive but we have to check.
18.10.2024 17:10	7	(11 - Neuville Thierry / Wydaeghe Martijn): Was OK, but the road changed a lot between the gravel corridor, it was humid. Slowing down too much before the end, it was more reliable. No big change in service.
18.10.2024 14:10	6	(11 - Neuville Thierry / Wydaeghe Martijn): We shouldn't do stages more than two times. I tried without taking risks in tricky places. It is hard to know what is the best setup in there, because it is bumpy and then it is super soft. I was on three times with the same setup in there.
18.10.2024 11:10	5	(11 - Neuville Thierry / Wydaeghe Martijn): I just slide a bit wide, grip is changing in every corner. With no car in front, it is hard to judge the grip. We are a bit careful, overall very tricky. We still struggle with the grip changes in these conditions.
18.10.2024 10:10	4	(11 - Neuville Thierry / Wydaeghe Martijn): I had no feeling for the grip, I was understeering massively throughut the stage. Many grip changes throughout the stage and I struggled to find the confidence after. Really struggled in the stage.
18.10.2024 09:10	3	(11 - Neuville Thierry / Wydaeghe Martijn): It was a bit more slippery than yesterday evening, I struggled with understeer. Overall, probably the easiest stage of the day. It is definitely going to get more difficult. How much will the damage to the aero on the front right handicap you? We will see by the end of the day, it cannot be better for sure but it is not a disaster.
17.10.2024 19:10	2	(11 - Neuville Thierry / Wydaeghe Martijn): I can't be happy to be honest, I took off the aero in the front right by stupidly touching a straw bale. I didn't know but it will handicap me for the whole morning tomorrow. Even here, we touched some, but we have nothing to lose anymore, it is gone already.
17.10.2024 15:10	1	(11 - Neuville Thierry / Wydaeghe Martijn): The gameplan is to get through the rally on a decent rhythm and enjoy it. We all hope to claim the title this weekend, but we have to see how the weekend goes.
