Information
Date and time SS Information
18.07.2026 02:07 7 flash info (11 - Neuville Thierry / Wydaeghe Martijn): I expected more but I don't know. The car felt brilliant in testing but today I couldn't find any of that. We will change some stuff for tomorrow. I'm a bit disappointed I couldn't find the feeling but something must be wrong.
18.07.2026 01:07 6 flash info (11 - Neuville Thierry / Wydaeghe Martijn): I would have hoped for a bit more, but it seems to be difficult. We need to keep working, the rally is still long. Surprising to see Toyota get the hard tyre to work that well, while we would never get it to work like that.
18.07.2026 01:07 5 flash info (11 - Neuville Thierry / Wydaeghe Martijn): It is the only thing we are looking at for the moment. It is the understeer that is the the problem, the grip, the balance. We miss a bit of aero at the front and I can feel it more than I expected. We keep pushing.
18.07.2026 01:07 4 flash info (11 - Neuville Thierry / Wydaeghe Martijn): We're trying, but I don't like the balance of the car. It felt like the rear was so low, maybe we did something wrong in the tyre fitting zone. Struggling a lot. We have some differential openings and I'm really thinking if there is something wrong with the differentials.
18.07.2026 01:07 3 flash info (11 - Neuville Thierry / Wydaeghe Martijn): We are just skating on top, but we are not getting the lateral grip to load the grip into the corner. I had sticky feet, I was probably on the hot tarmac before the stage and my feet were sticking to the pedals. It was not very comfortable.
18.07.2026 01:07 2 flash info (11 - Neuville Thierry / Wydaeghe Martijn): I might have touched a bale somewhere, It is not better I'm really fighting with the car. Sometimes it is bit scary I have no balance and massive understeer under braking, no grip. It is not a clean start at the moment.
18.07.2026 01:07 1 flash info (11 - Neuville Thierry / Wydaeghe Martijn): It was a bit difficult. I was fighting with the car balance but other than that it was ok. I need to find a better feeling. The car has oversteer in the slow partrs and a lot of understeer in the fast parts.
