Information
Date and time SS Information
24.11.2024 12:11 21 flash info (17 - Ogier Sébastien / Landais Vincent): I don't know, we need Elfyn to finish to secure the manufacturers' title for Toyota. Nice stage! This is rally for me. Target of the season reached. Next year, I'll stay a bit more at home. As long as I can enjoy rallies like this.
24.11.2024 05:11 20 flash info (17 - Ogier Sébastien / Landais Vincent): All about the Wolf Power Stage now, that is the only one that matters now. We have always had the pace.
24.11.2024 02:11 19 flash info (17 - Ogier Sébastien / Landais Vincent): I think you know what is going on, you just need to watch TV! We push more now, with the leaves on the road it was difficult to be committed and not do stupid things.
24.11.2024 01:11 18 flash info (17 - Ogier Sébastien / Landais Vincent): Never nice, I think I heard that Tänak and Jarveojä are okay, that is most important. I know quite good how Ott feels recently, I feel for them as they are doing a good race so far. It is very tight in the manufacturers' fight so let's see.
24.11.2024 00:11 17 flash info (17 - Ogier Sébastien / Landais Vincent): It looks like there is some pollution coming much more than we thought, okay we need to keep pushing. When there is things like this happening, there is no point overdoing it. You can only do what you can.
23.11.2024 15:11 16 flash info (17 - Ogier Sébastien / Landais Vincent): If something is going on in the stadium with the lights, we need to use light pods. Good day.
23.11.2024 14:11 15 flash info (17 - Ogier Sébastien / Landais Vincent): Again, another clean stage with the conditions. Consistent grip. A lot of corners, very slow. After the disastrous start of the rally, the podium position is the only thing we can recover. It looks like the battle might go up to the last day of the season, it looks like Neuville has the edge but you'll never know.
23.11.2024 14:11 14 flash info (17 - Ogier Sébastien / Landais Vincent): It's been a fun stage now, very clean, good grip. Maybe the first one of the rally that was so clean like this. It is always enjoyable when you have a clean stage like this and you can trust the grip.
23.11.2024 14:11 13 flash info (17 - Ogier Sébastien / Landais Vincent): So far we are quickest. Let's see, the previous one we were fastest but nominal times were given faster. It's been a good stage, as least we have the zone identified where the mud is now.
23.11.2024 03:11 12 flash info (17 - Ogier Sébastien / Landais Vincent): It's not an easy one, a lot of pine on the road which made every corner different. A lot of information from the gravel crew, but good information that gave me a lot of confidence. The most important thing is me and Taka in front of Adrien Fourmaux.
23.11.2024 01:11 11 flash info (17 - Ogier Sébastien / Landais Vincent): What's the plan? Very good question! Drive and try to have some speed. I try to do what I can.
23.11.2024 01:11 10 flash info (17 - Ogier Sébastien / Landais Vincent): Good stage from Munster, I think it was okay, clean. Tricky conditions. There is some muddy corners, which are greasy but we had a clean run. Maybe we aren't pushing enough but at least we are here.
22.11.2024 13:11 9 flash info (17 - Ogier Sébastien / Landais Vincent): Fifth is not enough, it is still a disappointing day for us. We keep trying for our team. Many things happened today, you don't know what will happen tomorrow. The driving is okay, the feeling is okay, but obviously it is not what we wanted to fight for. Taka is not the target for me, Tänak would have been the target but he is too far away.
22.11.2024 13:11 7 flash info (17 - Ogier Sébastien / Landais Vincent): It is getting more dark than we thought so the forest was low visibility. The tyre risk was wanted for this afternoon so we did a good choice.
22.11.2024 13:11 6 flash info (17 - Ogier Sébastien / Landais Vincent): We are carrying extra spares which is not helping, but the feeling is not too bad in the car.
22.11.2024 13:11 5 flash info (17 - Ogier Sébastien / Landais Vincent): I mean the tyre choice is different also, that explains the trend [of time fading away at the end]. The tyre thinking is there is a tricky section, there is a risk of rain.
22.11.2024 02:11 4 flash info (17 - Ogier Sébastien / Landais Vincent): I have no idea what happened in front but for me it is unfortunately not a question of championship. It was a close to disaster start but what else can we do fighting, there was a lot of pressure coming into this one.
22.11.2024 01:11 3 flash info (17 - Ogier Sébastien / Landais Vincent): I don't know what to do at the moment. Speechless honestly. This section is definitely not my section, in the forest, we had a puncture two years ago in the same area. Not easy to find motivation. Doesn't look so good at the moment.
22.11.2024 00:11 2 flash info (17 - Ogier Sébastien / Landais Vincent): The first few corners were very slippery and I was understeering.
22.11.2024 00:11 2 (17 - Ogier Sébastien / Landais Vincent): stopped on stage to change punctured wheel
21.11.2024 13:11 1 flash info (17 - Ogier Sébastien / Landais Vincent): Not so great, we always struggle in there. Still isn't the setup we need for here.
