Information
Date and time SS Information
16.02.2025 17:02 18 flash info (5 - Pajari Sami / Salminen Marko): I feel it is quite a big disappointment what happened on Friday with the puncture, otherwise we have had really nice pace and movements. The feeling has been really nice. I enjoyed the rally but of course, it was frustrating to lose so much in the beginning. Really grateful for the team and of course, I guess we will just come back stronger.
16.02.2025 16:02 17 flash info (5 - Pajari Sami / Salminen Marko): Yep! Not perfect, I was hoping for something a little bit better. Anyway, a nice stage to drive. Really enjoyable. Some places again where I could improve. Safely through, really clean drive. Good feeling.
16.02.2025 16:02 16 flash info (5 - Pajari Sami / Salminen Marko): We saw McErlean out, so we slowed down to make sure it is fine. Otherwise, really smooth run. I was thinking if I should push at some point but just tried to be clean and efficient. I guess it is always like this.
16.02.2025 16:02 15 flash info (5 - Pajari Sami / Salminen Marko): Quite tricky, another tricky stage. Still quite a solid day, especially the morning was really nice and enjoyable for us. Clean day, full of learning and clean conditions. Lots of good things to take from here.
16.02.2025 16:02 14 flash info (5 - Pajari Sami / Salminen Marko): Really twisty at the end, pretty okay drive. I must say that there was a lack of traction at the end of the stage. In the circumstances I thought it was quite fine. Maybe we lost a bit on a bank, but quite slow corners so it is not so bad.
16.02.2025 16:02 13 flash info (5 - Pajari Sami / Salminen Marko): It's quite a tricky one, quite narrow line in many places so we should stay in the line. Some places I manage it and some not so well. The cuts are quite small in the afternoon. There was one left corner in halfway and one right corner close to the end where he came out of the line.
16.02.2025 16:02 12 flash info (5 - Pajari Sami / Salminen Marko): It's quite obvious it is really different condition to the morning. Lots of grip change so not so easy in the snow, few places I was too wide. Not really fully happy but not too bad.
16.02.2025 15:02 11 flash info (5 - Pajari Sami / Salminen Marko): Not so bad, still not perfect. I like to do some fully new stages and some nice places on this stage. Some room to improve. We need to be quicker, to make the time less.
16.02.2025 15:02 10 flash info (5 - Pajari Sami / Salminen Marko): Today has been quite nice to drive and also yesterday was not so bad from the feeling. It was not a perfect run from this stage, I feel I left some time on the stage. If not one then many specific places, but it is not perfect.
16.02.2025 14:02 9 flash info (5 - Pajari Sami / Salminen Marko): Quite nice feeling, quite tricky conditions. The grip is changing quite a lot, not so easy to find the perfect flow in every place. Still quite nice and enjoyable.
16.02.2025 05:02 8 flash info (5 - Pajari Sami / Salminen Marko): Of course I am trying to enjoy all the stages with this beast! Still some really good things about today, really disappointing to lose 40sec on the first stage of today, but I hate to say 'what if?' We have to take the positives and there are two more days to drive.
16.02.2025 04:02 7 flash info (5 - Pajari Sami / Salminen Marko): I tried clearly to push a bit more on this stage, it was our choice to be a bit slower on the previous and then try and push on here a bit more. Still really tricky, feels really slippery and tricky in many places, but I enjoy it. Yeah, I had some new tyres.
16.02.2025 04:02 6 flash info (5 - Pajari Sami / Salminen Marko): We have maybe different tyre strategies, based on how the feeling and the grip was, I had a really good run. Really clean and got in some good places. The driving is not bad, let's see the next two stages.
16.02.2025 04:02 5 flash info (5 - Pajari Sami / Salminen Marko): It's okay, I am a bit worried how the tyre will last the loop. I was trying to be soft on the tyre but it was more gravel than I expect. Quite nice feeling anyway.
14.02.2025 13:02 4 flash info (5 - Pajari Sami / Salminen Marko): Honestly the feeling is very similar to the first day, I was not even pushing. Just trying to have a good flow, very clean. We need to try something, if I push anymore then we are all over the snow banks. Not easy, but the feeling is okay.
14.02.2025 13:02 3 flash info (5 - Pajari Sami / Salminen Marko): Much more slippery for me than the first one. Not so easy, I had a really clean run. You feel you can do much more in these conditions. Especially the lasts ection is really, really icy. It can be that it's getting worse.
14.02.2025 13:02 2 flash info (5 - Pajari Sami / Salminen Marko): For me what seems to be normal, hit a snow bank gently. I don't know what happened, if the tyre just came off the rim, but very disappointing. I had a nice flow, quite clean. Very disappointing.
14.02.2025 13:02 2 (5 - Pajari Sami / Salminen Marko): puncture
13.02.2025 19:02 1 flash info (5 - Pajari Sami / Salminen Marko): For me the grip was changing quite a lot, I felt that I was clearly slow, but not so easy to find the flow in there. It's okay. A bit unexpected, but I am happy to do a clean stage for today and do a proper rally tomorrow.
