Information
Date and time SS Information
19.07.2026 17:07 18 flash info (4 - Lappi Esapekka / Mälkönen Enni): I have been quite satisfied with the car for much of the rally but the times doesn't match the feeling and it was the same today. I don't know what I need to do for Finland. It was a disappointing weekend.
19.07.2026 17:07 17 flash info (4 - Lappi Esapekka / Mälkönen Enni): The feeling was ok. I don't believe the time is ok but the feeling is ok.
18.07.2026 23:07 16 flash info (4 - Lappi Esapekka / Mälkönen Enni): Yeah, it's been a difficult two days, to be honest. I don't know, I don't know why, but I'm really, like you said, it's, I'm completely kind of lost. It kind of feels good, but the times are not coming, and we just don't understand really why. Normally I always find a way during the rally that we find the speed, but now I can't. So maybe I'm too old already. Okay, Séb is older, but he's also way more, better than me, so he can do it. But it seems that I can't anymore.
18.07.2026 23:07 15 flash info (4 - Lappi Esapekka / Mälkönen Enni): Feeling better? No. Same story. I'm actually feeling annoyed. Ask something else. What's for dinner? Hopefully meat and a lot of electrolytes, I'm sweating a lot.
18.07.2026 23:07 14 flash info (4 - Lappi Esapekka / Mälkönen Enni): It was much more calm. There was no moments like the first pass. It was a pretty clean run. The feeling is fine and handling is fine. I don't want to change it [the car] anymore we have tried so many things.
18.07.2026 23:07 13 flash info (4 - Lappi Esapekka / Mälkönen Enni): No moments. The grip is changing a bit here and there. Other than that it was fine.
18.07.2026 23:07 12 flash info (4 - Lappi Esapekka / Mälkönen Enni): I had understeer completely when the corner tightened. We went wide. That was the thing I was afraid of all the time. It doesn't build up my confidence. I didn't watch how close I was to a tree.
18.07.2026 23:07 10 flash info (4 - Lappi Esapekka / Mälkönen Enni): It is same as before. For sure the car is pefomning a bit better in the second pass and I have more confidence. We have to work on the first pass. It is probably not enough but we are performing better than the first pass.
18.07.2026 23:07 9 flash info (4 - Lappi Esapekka / Mälkönen Enni): It is difficult to be happy. I don't know what to say. I'm a bit speechless at the moment.
18.07.2026 22:07 8 flash info (4 - Lappi Esapekka / Mälkönen Enni): It was fine. That is the speed that I can do.
18.07.2026 02:07 7 flash info (4 - Lappi Esapekka / Mälkönen Enni): There was something on the suspension and the transmission that I changed. Let' see and try to analyse the data form today and find out why I'm losing so much all the time.
18.07.2026 01:07 6 flash info (4 - Lappi Esapekka / Mälkönen Enni): Good, something positive for today. I did some changes which I didn't even tell my engineer. I changed something and it at least it is working for the second pass. It was a better direction to go. At least I know the direction to go.
18.07.2026 01:07 5 flash info (4 - Lappi Esapekka / Mälkönen Enni): I'm braver for sure. It is all fine. I did well and I gave everything but it is really depressing to see that you are slowest when you have given everything and you have a better starting position. The feeling is not so good.
18.07.2026 01:07 4 flash info (4 - Lappi Esapekka / Mälkönen Enni): It was a big push form me but you cannot see it on the times. We are still the slowest and I'm sweating a lot. I really pushed a lot. I don't know what is going on.
18.07.2026 01:07 3 flash info (4 - Lappi Esapekka / Mälkönen Enni): It feels quite ok but the times are bad. We tried to change things to make the car faster but we haven't found any solution. It is a shame but I'm trying. It is very difficult at the moment.
18.07.2026 01:07 2 flash info (4 - Lappi Esapekka / Mälkönen Enni): I thought we would be on the pace. We should have a clean line and I can't really use it. I don't know why. I'm really driving on the edge. On the big road I'm really committed but I don't understand.
18.07.2026 01:07 1 flash info (4 - Lappi Esapekka / Mälkönen Enni): I was hesitating in some places especially in the beginning. The end was not so bad but the time is fairly bad. I don't know what to say to be honest but the clock doesn't lie.
