Information
Date and time SS Information
24.05.2026 17:05 16 flash info (10 - Tempestini Simone / Maior Francesca): I want to thank MRF for the possibility to be at the start of this event. I've been in places, let's say, it's not good to say fast, but almost fast in places. I've been smart. It was a good rally for us and we enjoyed a lot.
24.05.2026 16:05 15 flash info (10 - Tempestini Simone / Maior Francesca): Even more difficult than the previous pass, I think, on this one for me. I'm struggling a bit with the surface because in my head I can go much faster, but yeah, when I enter into the corner, sometimes I'm a bit surprised. So I'm trying to keep a good rhythm without taking too big risks. Maybe I have made the car a bit too soft for this surface. I will try to change something for the Power Stage.
24.05.2026 14:05 14 flash info (10 - Tempestini Simone / Maior Francesca): At the moment, this one is not my favourite stage, but yeah, we have a lot of time until we come back here. For sure, we will have some regroup before the Power Stage, so I think we can reset a bit, but with so many guys so fast, I think I'm not the favourite to take the first place on the Power Stage, but for sure we will try to have a good run.
24.05.2026 13:05 13 flash info (10 - Tempestini Simone / Maior Francesca): Like I said before, I expected that to be a tricky stage. At the beginning, it was a car on the road. We knew that there is a car on the right, but I didn't expect the car to be so much in the road. It's an okay stage.
24.05.2026 11:05 12 flash info (10 - Tempestini Simone / Maior Francesca): I feel good. It was a good loop. This one, I don't know why I didn't feel too good, in many places I think I could be faster. But yeah, that's it. Now we have two short stages, but they are really, really tough, so we need to keep the focus on.
24.05.2026 10:05 11 flash info (10 - Tempestini Simone / Maior Francesca): It was a nice stage. Really, really nice one. It was very, very fast...the average speed on the dash is 131km per hour in 19km. The guys in front are doing a really, really great job. They are so fast. We are trying to improve our rhythm. The pace notes are good. I thought that during the recce, even with the early time, I had not done a good job, but on this one, the pace notes are really good.
24.05.2026 09:05 10 flash info (10 - Tempestini Simone / Maior Francesca): Okay, maybe it's because I'm sleeping and I'm not thinking too much, but it's okay. A good stage also this one. The previous one, it was really fast in section and like I said, the gravel was really hard. Here, it was a bit softer, so for sure the cleaning is helping me and will help a lot more also the guys behind, but yeah, we are enjoying.
24.05.2026 08:05 9 flash info (10 - Tempestini Simone / Maior Francesca): It's too early to speak about feelings, the grip was good in there. I expected it to be a bit more soft after the rain yesterday.
23.05.2026 17:05 8 flash info (10 - Tempestini Simone / Maior Francesca): I'm happy we are hare at the end of this challenging day with so many nice stages. We will have a short night to prepare for tomorrow's stages which are really tough also. We still keep the focus.
23.05.2026 17:05 7 flash info (10 - Tempestini Simone / Maior Francesca): It was an ok stage for us. We are trying to learn a few new things. It is a good rally for the moment. Unfortunately because of the rock that caused a puncture in SS 6 I'm not driving with the same compound of tyres all around the car.
23.05.2026 15:05 6 flash info (10 - Tempestini Simone / Maior Francesca): It was a good stage but unfortunately we hit a big rock in a fast place just before the jump. I knew it was not good for the car. At least it was close to the end so we didn't lose too much time. I'm not happy.
23.05.2026 15:05 6 (10 - Tempestini Simone / Maior Francesca): puncture
23.05.2026 15:05 5 flash info (10 - Tempestini Simone / Maior Francesca): I tried to be happy. We are enjoying the rally a lot but normally I don't have problems with starting the stages, but I cannot understand these anti-cuts. I don't know why I saw anti cuts on a clean line. This is not enjoyable.
23.05.2026 10:05 3 flash info (10 - Tempestini Simone / Maior Francesca): It is a really fast stage. It was not easy to start and find the cars on the road. I hope everyone is ok. We lost a bit of rhythm. Sometimes it is difficult to trust the pacenotes. I'm doing my best and we are enjoying the gravel.
23.05.2026 08:05 2 flash info (10 - Tempestini Simone / Maior Francesca): It was ok. It was a good stage but unfortunately my rhythm was not perfect from the beginning. It was not easy.
22.05.2026 19:05 1 flash info (10 - Tempestini Simone / Maior Francesca): It is a nice stage, quite short and unfortunately the stages tomorrow are not looking like this. These kind of corners I like and it was fun to drive. Hopefully the people watching enjoyed it.
