Information
Date and time SS Information
20.05.2018 16:05 20 flash info (9 - Lappi Esapekka / Ferm Janne): It's been a great two days to be honest, I've never pushed so hard! It's been a learning curve to drive on the limit for one and a half days.
20.05.2018 16:05 19 flash info (9 - Lappi Esapekka / Ferm Janne): Yeah it is still close! It is tough to gain any seconds to be honest but I'm trying all the time. Let's see how we finish, but it is tough definitely.
20.05.2018 16:05 17 flash info (9 - Lappi Esapekka / Ferm Janne): It is a big battle but the gap is too big. I'm doing everything I can but I can't go faster. Teemu is doing a really good job.
20.05.2018 16:05 16 flash info (9 - Lappi Esapekka / Ferm Janne): It is good to be ahead but one or two seconds is not going to be enough! We need more! It was a pretty nice drive.
20.05.2018 16:05 15 flash info (9 - Lappi Esapekka / Ferm Janne): I'm afraid it's not enough, the whole afternoon I've been flat-out. I've add had so many moments but I can't push any harder. I can't take any tenths out from Teemu or Dani.
20.05.2018 16:05 14 flash info (9 - Lappi Esapekka / Ferm Janne): It's really nice to be in the fight with a fellow Finn. Okay I don't know how this went, but it changed - damp like this, 200kph and under braking, it is quite a surprise.
20.05.2018 16:05 13 flash info (9 - Lappi Esapekka / Ferm Janne): For sure our tyre choice for this one wasn't the best so I decided to give it everything. A bit of time isn't enough but I'm giving it my all.
20.05.2018 16:05 12 flash info (9 - Lappi Esapekka / Ferm Janne): Everything is achievable, but there is a long afternoon coming up. We were maybe 15sec shy of the podium before this one but we'll see what happens. It is very sandy, but is the same for everyone I guess.
20.05.2018 15:05 11 flash info (9 - Lappi Esapekka / Ferm Janne): For sure it will be tight with Teemu. I have a good feeling, good rhythm, I don't want to take any risks. There is more grip today than there was yesterday.
20.05.2018 15:05 10 flash info (9 - Lappi Esapekka / Ferm Janne): All the drivers in front of me are behind already so I don't need to focus on them so much. Not the perfect run, but ok I am satisfied.
20.05.2018 15:05 9 flash info (9 - Lappi Esapekka / Ferm Janne): Safely and safely! It has been one of the roughest rally afternoons of my career, even Argentina was no match for this. It is really nice to be here, for sure not the best day in the end but we will try and improve tomorrow.
20.05.2018 15:05 6 flash info (9 - Lappi Esapekka / Ferm Janne): The car is definitely better but unfortunately the rear damper is fully broken.
20.05.2018 14:05 5 flash info (9 - Lappi Esapekka / Ferm Janne): I think so, a lot more grip to be honest. The road is getting cleaner as well, hard to say for tomorrow morning but at the moment it is better.
20.05.2018 14:05 4 flash info (9 - Lappi Esapekka / Ferm Janne): Yeah, it would be nice to know what to do. I was completely flat-out but I just don't have grip. I'm on the limit all the time, we just don't have grip.
20.05.2018 14:05 3 flash info (9 - Lappi Esapekka / Ferm Janne): This stage was no better. I just can't do any better, I don't know why. No problems with my car, everything is fine. I come as fast as I can but I don't feel like we have a lot of grip. I can't go any faster without going off.
20.05.2018 13:05 2 flash info (9 - Lappi Esapekka / Ferm Janne): I tried but not brave enough. Everything is working fine, car is alright but I need to be braver.
17.05.2018 22:05 1 flash info (9 - Lappi Esapekka / Ferm Janne): Aim is podium. I'm pretty satisfied for the lowest place on the podium already. I'm ready for it.
