Information
Date and time SS Information
11.09.2022 13:09 16 flash info (11 - Neuville Thierry / Wydaeghe Martijn): It has been a tough season so far and to get the victory after a very difficult weekend in Belgium is a relief. The most important thing is we have a 1-2-3 for the team - after all these years we finally got it and it's a historical moment for the brand and the team. Everybody has worked hard for this and it's a nice reward.
11.09.2022 13:09 15 flash info (11 - Neuville Thierry / Wydaeghe Martijn): One stage left and it's going to be a tough one. Nothing is done yet but we are going to have a steady run.
10.09.2022 17:09 13 flash info (11 - Neuville Thierry / Wydaeghe Martijn): It has been a great day for us. A bit of a hard one this afternoon with some trouble with the car, but we survived and we are here now. We had a warning for battery voltage, but it seems okay. My tyres weren't so good on the last few stages and I was just trying to drive clean to avoid punctures.
10.09.2022 14:09 11 flash info (11 - Neuville Thierry / Wydaeghe Martijn): Battery low alarm on dashboard. I have to go...
10.09.2022 13:09 10 flash info (11 - Neuville Thierry / Wydaeghe Martijn): I am surprised. We had a good clean run this morning and I think the tyre choice was good as well but I struggled a bit with the balance at the rear and I had to adapt a bit. It's good that we can extend a lead on a loop like this - it gives us confidence for the afternoon, but there is still a long way to go.
10.09.2022 13:09 8 flash info (11 - Neuville Thierry / Wydaeghe Martijn): I had a good stage. Carrying two spare wheels was a bit of a handicap in there, but it will be interesting to see the tyre wear now. Hopefully this strategy pays off and we had a clean run.
09.09.2022 17:09 7 flash info (11 - Neuville Thierry / Wydaeghe Martijn): It was enjoyable. I am happy to finish the day and tomorrow the road position should be a bit better. The car was working quite okay and we had a really clean run throughout the day.
09.09.2022 14:09 6 flash info (11 - Neuville Thierry / Wydaeghe Martijn): I am not comparing my times with Rovanperä. I am looking at the guys behind who are in a close position. It wasn't great to be honest - I struggled with the balance and I had quite a bit of understeer.
09.09.2022 13:09 5 flash info (11 - Neuville Thierry / Wydaeghe Martijn): I don't know about the time, but I did what I could. The handling was completely different here compared to the other stages - it was a different profile. For this kind of stage I need to work on the chassis.
09.09.2022 13:09 3 flash info (11 - Neuville Thierry / Wydaeghe Martijn): It was okay. It's cleaning and all the cars behind are going faster. It is what it is and we will try to keep fighting.
09.09.2022 13:09 2 flash info (11 - Neuville Thierry / Wydaeghe Martijn): We have no visibility - sometimes you are flat-out in fifth gear and all of a sudden there is nothing.
08.09.2022 20:09 1 flash info (11 - Neuville Thierry / Wydaeghe Martijn): It's like it should always be - such great crowds and atmosphere. Congratulations to the organisers for putting this in place for us and for all the spectators who came today. It shows that it's possible to bring huge crowds to the WRC and we should look to do more on other events as well.
