Date and time SS Information
16.02.2025 16:02 15 flash info (1 - Neuville Thierry / Wydaeghe Martijn): We have to prepare well tonight. I am happy with the day to be honest, we did what we should do and we had a good rhythm managing the race. I tried to preserve the tyres as much as I could. Slightly increase the rhythm bit by bit. Go flat out tomorrow.
16.02.2025 16:02 14 flash info (1 - Neuville Thierry / Wydaeghe Martijn): I just said to Martijn Wydaeghe, finally a good stage. I enjoyed that one, it was getting a bit dark, not easy to find the braking points. I was early on a few, a bit late on the others. I tried to keep the speed, all okay.
16.02.2025 16:02 13 flash info (1 - Neuville Thierry / Wydaeghe Martijn): It felt okay, as always struggling with the balance at some point, but overall not a bad one. Tried to give it a bit more speed. The lines are getting cleaner so not so easy to fight with the guys behind. It's a shame for Fourmaux, we need every car at the finish. The risk is there with the speed we are going.
16.02.2025 16:02 12 flash info (1 - Neuville Thierry / Wydaeghe Martijn): I got the message we were slower than Rovanperä, let's see it is a long loop. Generally happy with my drive, at the beginning you can attack a bit more, but at the end there is no mistake.
16.02.2025 15:02 11 flash info (1 - Neuville Thierry / Wydaeghe Martijn): We have to try and keep Rovanperä at bay, thye have been pretty fast this morning. Not much more I could have done, we kept trying things to gain some speed. Let's see on second pass, it will not be first pass conditions.
16.02.2025 15:02 10 flash info (1 - Neuville Thierry / Wydaeghe Martijn): I did some setup changes and we are struggling with the same problem of the first pass, the understeer. I need to always be a bit slow on the entry of corners, that's where we lose time. The driving is good but we need to find the balance on the car that gives us more speed.
16.02.2025 14:02 9 flash info (1 - Neuville Thierry / Wydaeghe Martijn): I didn't go too bad, I just lost two or three seconds in a half spin in a fast corner, where I hit the snow on the inside. It nearly spun me around, other than that I had a good stage.
