INFORMATION ABOUT SS 4

retired (90 - Klouvatos George / Vlahogenis Andreas): retired after SS 4

(108 - Nieminen Niko-Pekka / Korhonen Mikael): double puncture
(50 - Gorban Valeriy / Korsia Volodymyr): problems with rear suspension
flash info (5 - Novikov Evgeny / Minor Ilka): I think we hit the same stone with Jari Matti last year, we had a puncture and we stopped and changed it. Maybe there is a problem also with the suspension.
flash info (3 - Sordo Dani / Del Barrio Carlos): It was a tough stage, at the end a little more difficult. I am not taking risks. Try to finish on podium and gain points. It's very rough, and if Evgeny and Jari Matti are pushing like hell, it's very easy to make a mistake.
flash info (7 - Latvala Jari-Matti / Anttila Miikka): Very hard and rough stage. I was lucky, when I hit a bank and there was a stone and I thought we had a puncture. We are very lucky.
flash info (11 - Neuville Thierry / Gilsoul Nicolas): Quite ok. I was a bit careful in some places especially in the first part. I don't push too much. I struggle with the brakes. I think that they were overheating. The stage is cleaning, but it is getting rougher.
flash info (9 - Mikkelsen Andreas / Markkula Mikko): I made a mistake at the end of the stage. I braked late and went in the wrong place of the road. I had to put reverse 10-15 seconds. Until then it was ok. Not an easy stage.
flash info (6 - Al-Attiyah Nasser / Bernacchini Giovanni): Very rough stage, but ok. We tried to finish the stage with no problem. We try to keep good speed and wait to see what happens.
flash info (21 - Prokop Martin / Ernst Michal): Ok, not so rough. We try to concentrate. No big moments and I try to improve my driving. There is some dust, but there is no problem.
flash info (10 - Al Qassimi Khalid / Martin Scott): It was very rough and bumpy. In the previous stage we had two spins and we try to build confidence. But it's ok.
flash info (4 - Østberg Mads / Andersson Jonas): Very rough stage. The car is oversteering a lot. Maybe I have a problem with the rear diff. For this stage it was very difficult to drive. We will try to fix it before the next stage.
flash info (2 - Hirvonen Mikko / Lehtinen Jarmo): Ok, no problems. Quite rough but everything is ok. There is some dust, but there is no problem.
(5 - Novikov Evgeny / Minor Ilka): Rear right tyre puncture, changed wheel. Damage on suspension.
flash info (8 - Ogier Sébastien / Ingrassia Julien): It was rough but we are out of trouble. The last part of the stage is rebuilt. It's ok. At the moment, it's difficult to estimate what we can do. We will push and try to get everything we can from the day.
