30.05.2026 23:05 14 flash info (20 - Paddon Hayden / Kennard John): It's been a positive day, we made a good shift forward. Getting used to the car. Haven't touched the setup, adapting to the car. When you trust the car moving around it's quite a lot of fun.
30.05.2026 23:05 12 flash info (20 - Paddon Hayden / Kennard John): Today has been a positive day.. We are not too far away. This stage here felt better. The more I drive the car with this set up Ilm getting used to it. This felt like the best stage so far.
30.05.2026 23:05 11 flash info (20 - Paddon Hayden / Kennard John): The last 5km coming down the hill we have no tyre at all. It is all about tyre management. I think we managed ok but it is tricky.
30.05.2026 23:05 10 flash info (20 - Paddon Hayden / Kennard John): It is bit easier. The tyre are very hot and you feel them moving around a lot and you are trying to manage them. Fun stage.
30.05.2026 23:05 9 flash info (20 - Paddon Hayden / Kennard John): This is quite a busy stage actually. Already there is a bit of pollution on the road and it will get worse. I would say it is the most demanding stage of the loop.
30.05.2026 23:05 8 flash info (20 - Paddon Hayden / Kennard John): We've definitely made some improvements to the car, but these stages are so hard for the first time. It doesn't matter how many times I've watched the videos and the prep for this event, there's nothing like driving them and everything looks the same because there's obviously so many corners, so it's really hard to make up for that deficit. Trying the best we can, trying to drive as close as best I can, but it's everywhere, there's places we could have gone faster.
30.05.2026 22:05 7 flash info (20 - Paddon Hayden / Kennard John): It's obviously another new stage for us now. We made a lot of changes overnight. The car's better, but it's very edgy. It's hard to know what it's going to do, and it's not so predictable, but it's faster, but I just got to get comfortable with it. That's probably the biggest thing.
