Information
Date and time SS Information
07.10.2018 12:10 22 flash info (5 - Neuville Thierry / Gilsoul Nicolas): I had an ok run, we can see if we can try and get a little closer to Mads but it is going to be difficult I think. We were faster than Andreas this morning, so we need to see if we can Andreas and Mads.
07.10.2018 12:10 21 flash info (5 - Neuville Thierry / Gilsoul Nicolas): It is actually very enjoyable, but I lost the bite on the brakes towards the end so I had to be careful.
07.10.2018 12:10 20 flash info (5 - Neuville Thierry / Gilsoul Nicolas): I struggle with the handling, I tried but I'm pretty sure we will not get a lot of points with that.
07.10.2018 12:10 19 flash info (5 - Neuville Thierry / Gilsoul Nicolas): Very slippy, very surprising. My pacenotes were a little optimistic so at one point I had to slow down a little bit because I had a few small slides and I didn't want to risk anything.
06.10.2018 19:10 18 flash info (5 - Neuville Thierry / Gilsoul Nicolas): We have seen that in previous years that the road is getting slippier so we lose the time there. Compared to the guys around me my time is not so bad, there is nothing to gain for me.
06.10.2018 19:10 17 flash info (5 - Neuville Thierry / Gilsoul Nicolas): I cannot do much more, I try not to take big risks either. Now Tänak is off, Ogier has the possibility to win - we need to get a good position for the Power Stage tomorrow.
06.10.2018 17:10 16 flash info (5 - Neuville Thierry / Gilsoul Nicolas): I just got the information now on the radio, that is part of the game - I told you it is not finished until it is finished. The championship is only over when we cross the line in Australia.
06.10.2018 16:10 15 flash info (5 - Neuville Thierry / Gilsoul Nicolas): Everything is okay, I had a good rhythm but the tyre was moving around quite a bit. I need to tighten the suspension, it is too soft.
06.10.2018 13:10 14 flash info (5 - Neuville Thierry / Gilsoul Nicolas): We continue pushing. We went with the medium tyre choice on the front axle this morning, we were surprised by the grip and went off. We won't give up.
06.10.2018 13:10 13 flash info (5 - Neuville Thierry / Gilsoul Nicolas): Continue pushing this afternoon. I think we made the wrong tyre choice this morning because there is less grip than I expected.
06.10.2018 13:10 11 flash info (5 - Neuville Thierry / Gilsoul Nicolas): At one point it has to come, when you're driving on the edge from the start of the year. It is my first mistake where I was stuck somewhere since Monte Carlo. The car is good.
06.10.2018 13:10 11 (5 - Neuville Thierry / Gilsoul Nicolas): was out of road
06.10.2018 13:10 10 flash info (5 - Neuville Thierry / Gilsoul Nicolas): We could expect that. The road is getting more slippy. It was an okay stage, a few small mistakes here and there but overall I'm happy with my drive.
05.10.2018 17:10 9 flash info (5 - Neuville Thierry / Gilsoul Nicolas): Things are working better, we have improved the set-up but the stage conditions are getting better as well, The conditions are much better for the handling of our car. I couldn't do more to be honest, I liked this stage and I was pretty much on it all the time.
05.10.2018 17:10 8 flash info (5 - Neuville Thierry / Gilsoul Nicolas): The conditions are much better. The car was working quite okay, I had the feeling that this was better. Maybe a bit more we could do but there is more grip.
05.10.2018 15:10 7 flash info (5 - Neuville Thierry / Gilsoul Nicolas): The grip was better, I was more happy with the car but now the car feels different as well. Maybe we can work a bit better with that setting.
05.10.2018 12:10 6 flash info (5 - Neuville Thierry / Gilsoul Nicolas): We can't find follow the pace of the Toyotas, when we try we make mistakes. We are not setting any good times, it is frustrating but I'm sure we can solve the problem for this afternoon. We are missing grip and the car is not reacting when we're correcting our line slightly.
05.10.2018 12:10 5 flash info (5 - Neuville Thierry / Gilsoul Nicolas): Quite tricky, very narrow with a lot of stones. We had a good stage.
05.10.2018 11:10 4 flash info (5 - Neuville Thierry / Gilsoul Nicolas): The feeling was that it was a little bit better. It was working a little bit better, but not like it should be. Once a little bit wide.
05.10.2018 11:10 3 flash info (5 - Neuville Thierry / Gilsoul Nicolas): I did my best to be honest, but I struggled with understeering. The car is not doing what I want, I hit the chicance and I almost had to go backwards a bit.
05.10.2018 11:10 2 flash info (5 - Neuville Thierry / Gilsoul Nicolas): Very slippy, really difficult to judge any of the grip. It was not a bad stage, generally I try to adapt myself and just make a clean stage.
