01. 08. 2014 18:59 CET 		12 flash info (20 - Paddon Hayden / Kennard John): Not bad at all. The times have not been as good as this morning.

01. 08. 2014 18:56 CET 		12 flash info (6 - Evans Elfyn / Barritt Daniel): We didn't have a good run last time and we did not have a good run through this time. Sliding too much in places and not fully committed to the corners.

01. 08. 2014 18:55 CET 		12 flash info (3 - Meeke Kris / Nagle Paul): I was so much faster than I was last year. I am faster now on the second pass, I would quite like another run at it. We keep it going and see what happens. We still have a job to do.

01. 08. 2014 18:52 CET 		12 flash info (2 - Latvala Jari-Matti / Anttila Miikka): Its really good feeling to drive. When I am relaxed I can do my best performance. One right corner was too fast.

01. 08. 2014 17:36 CET 		11 flash info (19 - Solberg Henning / Minor Ilka): I just take it carefully, just one spare left. Three punctures this weekend.

I just try to follow the line and the car follow it really well. I was pushing really hard and I cannot push like that on every stage. I have been driving more and more accurately, I did not try to think about the splits, I just think about my driving.
01. 08. 2014 18:28
01. 08. 2014 17:28 CET 		11 flash info (1 - Ogier Sébastien / Ingrassia Julien): What can I do... I just drive, I do my best. There is a long way to go, tomorrow will be the start of another rally for me.

01. 08. 2014 17:50
01. 08. 2014 16:50 CET 		10 flash info (23 - Breen Craig / Martin Scott): It was quite nice, the only problem I had was that on the first pass I had a puncture and so I was hesitating all the time when I should have been flat out. I am getting happier with the car, it is just a massive step to what I am use to.
01. 08. 2014 17:49
01. 08. 2014 16:49 CET 		10 flash info (20 - Paddon Hayden / Kennard John): verything is allright, just trying to find the rhythm. This stage was a lot cleaner than the other one. The grip is there on the road, you just got to keep it in the clean line.
01. 08. 2014 17:48
01. 08. 2014 16:48 CET 		10 flash info (19 - Solberg Henning / Minor Ilka): I did not hit anything, just some stones and we got a puncture.

01. 08. 2014 16:45 CET 		10 flash info (21 - Prokop Martin / Tománek Jan): On the stage before we had a big moment, so this is not as good as it should be, the steering is not straight. Nothing is broken, just strange.
01. 08. 2014 17:44
01. 08. 2014 16:44 CET 		10 flash info (6 - Evans Elfyn / Barritt Daniel): Its coming for sure, I am feeling good inside the car. We are trying not to take the brains out for the minute and it is difficult on a stage like this. We are here to learn, it is too early to push flat out.
01. 08. 2014 17:43
01. 08. 2014 16:43 CET 		10 flash info (3 - Meeke Kris / Nagle Paul): Really enjoying it in there. For me one of the best feelings I have ever experienced. Some really big jumps but they are nice and smooth. My car has been fantastic, just keeping the concentration and worrying about my position.
01. 08. 2014 17:41
01. 08. 2014 16:41 CET 		10 flash info (5 - Hirvonen Mikko / Lehtinen Jarmo): I just spun at one junction, a really stupid mistake. It just touched a little bit the middle post and we spun. Lucky that we did not lose the wheel.

01. 08. 2014 16:40 CET 		10 flash info (4 - Østberg Mads / Andersson Jonas): It was working very well, good stage for us. I really have that feeling back and I am very pleased with that. It is definitely back in the right direction.

01. 08. 2014 16:38 CET 		10 flash info (2 - Latvala Jari-Matti / Anttila Miikka): I will really push now. Try to keep the car in the clean line, I pushed quite hard. I realised on the first stage, I really need to concentrate and keep the car on the straight line and not attack too much on the corners and that really helped.

01. 08. 2014 15:26 CET 		9 flash info (6 - Evans Elfyn / Barritt Daniel): I did not have a great time at the start, it seems to be getting better, I got a much better feeling towards the end of the stage there.

01. 08. 2014 15:16 CET 		9 flash info (9 - Mikkelsen Andreas / Fløene Ola): The feeling is better and better on these wide roads, we really use the whole road. Some ruts coming through, but very nice conditions.
01. 08. 2014 16:15
01. 08. 2014 15:15 CET 		9 flash info (2 - Latvala Jari-Matti / Anttila Miikka): Seb did a good job on this stage. One little mistake, I could not get the car in the line. It just wake me up. I need to keep the focus now. Rally is so fast, when you dont keep it on the line, you lose immediately.
01. 08. 2014 16:14
01. 08. 2014 15:14 CET 		9 flash info (1 - Ogier Sébastien / Ingrassia Julien): I am very happy with my drive, clean drive. Not as good condition as this morning, quite a bit of lose gravel, but it will better after a few cars.

01. 08. 2014 14:11 CET 		8 flash info (20 - Paddon Hayden / Kennard John): Nothing major, just a bit messy and did not get into the rhythm. It was all a bit rushed making repairs before the stage.
01. 08. 2014 15:11
01. 08. 2014 14:11 CET 		8 flash info (8 - Hänninen Juho / Tuominen Tomi): I think finally the damage with the car is not that bad. Boss will be really horrid in the service.

01. 08. 2014 12:13 CET 		8 flash info (6 - Evans Elfyn / Barritt Daniel): Generally it has been much much better today, basically on the cautious side but better. Hopefully have a good run in the afternoon. On the big flats is ultimately where you lose to the faster guys.
01. 08. 2014 13:11
01. 08. 2014 12:11 CET 		8 flash info (3 - Meeke Kris / Nagle Paul): I made a slight mistake, a junction right, 2 kms after the start. I just run wide and lost all the momentum. When you are not perfect it is impossible to do fastest time. I am totally happy, totally confident.
01. 08. 2014 13:10
01. 08. 2014 12:10 CET 		8 flash info (7 - Neuville Thierry / Gilsoul Nicolas): Without the rear wing there is nothing to do for us. The car is completely different balance, it is very difficult to drive. We have to fix the car now and the rear wing again back. We have to work a bit on the suspension so that I get the feeling back.
01. 08. 2014 13:08
01. 08. 2014 12:08 CET 		8 flash info (5 - Hirvonen Mikko / Lehtinen Jarmo): I feel that the time is going away again. We had a good stage on the previous one. This one it was not as bad as I thought. Just the small things here and there and that is where it comes from. I cannot afford any small mistake.
01. 08. 2014 13:07
01. 08. 2014 12:07 CET 		8 flash info (4 - Østberg Mads / Andersson Jonas): Definitely better, really enjoy it now, work a bit more on my driving. The feeling is good and the times are not bad at all. Its quite hard work, especially on a rally like this, confidence is key to success. It takes a little time to build back up and get the commitment over the crests.

01. 08. 2014 11:55 CET 		8 flash info (9 - Mikkelsen Andreas / Fløene Ola): Small break now. No big moments, quite steady drive. Trying to keep a good speed, I think we are doing quite correct. I would like to go faster.

01. 08. 2014 12:23
01. 08. 2014 11:23 CET 		7 flash info (3 - Meeke Kris / Nagle Paul): This was the stage with the most amount of cleaner, definitely the guys in front are at a disadvantage on this one. I just want to keep processing in myself and be comfortable where I am.
01. 08. 2014 12:21
01. 08. 2014 11:21 CET 		7 flash info (7 - Neuville Thierry / Gilsoul Nicolas): Not easy at all, the car is undriveable and you have to be very careful.

01. 08. 2014 11:06 CET 		7 flash info (2 - Latvala Jari-Matti / Anttila Miikka): It was a good stage. We were four seconds ahead when got the split and I started to attack a bit more, but it was not good, I started to lose time. There was a lot of gravel on this stage.

01. 08. 2014 11:04 CET 		7 flash info (1 - Ogier Sébastien / Ingrassia Julien): No problem at all, I am really happy with the stage. But no chance, so much lose on this stage, so much big rooks, no chance.

01. 08. 2014 10:08 CET 		6 flash info (21 - Prokop Martin / Tománek Jan): It was horrible stage, we jump out of the road, absolutely out of the road. It was pacenote mistake, so I jump completely straight out of the road and we still had 20 kilometres so I was not able to drive hard. Not good.
01. 08. 2014 11:08
01. 08. 2014 10:08 CET 		6 flash info (6 - Evans Elfyn / Barritt Daniel): It was an absolutely incredible stage. In some places you were on the correct line, but it is so easy to get caught out.

01. 08. 2014 10:06 CET 		6 flash info (3 - Meeke Kris / Nagle Paul): I just slid wide on a long right corner, that is the margin at this level. What a beautiful stage. It is still not perfect and we will continue to try to be better. Every corner is a big challenge on this rally.
01. 08. 2014 10:52
01. 08. 2014 09:52 CET 		6 flash info (7 - Neuville Thierry / Gilsoul Nicolas): We have no aero part on the rear. We have no grip on the rear so I have to take it steady in some places. You need to know the stage quite a lot, I am struggling with my pacenotes. I do not know what I have done, but I know that I am wrong in pacenotes.

01. 08. 2014 09:44
01. 08. 2014 08:44 CET 		5 flash info (6 - Evans Elfyn / Barritt Daniel): Much better to be honest, the pacenotes are working better. Things have been a lot better in here. We had to be careful as we started to overdrive in the beginning.
01. 08. 2014 09:43
01. 08. 2014 08:43 CET 		5 (10 - Kubica Robert / Szczepaniak Maciej): fallen into ditch
01. 08. 2014 09:41
01. 08. 2014 08:41 CET 		5 flash info (3 - Meeke Kris / Nagle Paul): Unfortunately in the middle of the stage I got lost a little in my notes so I backed off. You have to be so careful on a new stage in Finland.
01. 08. 2014 09:38
01. 08. 2014 08:38 CET 		5 flash info (7 - Neuville Thierry / Gilsoul Nicolas): I went slightly wide on a braking in a tight corner and I hit something. We lost a bit of downforce at the end and I lost the rear in a couple of places, but we continue like this.
01. 08. 2014 09:36
01. 08. 2014 08:36 CET 		5 flash info (5 - Hirvonen Mikko / Lehtinen Jarmo): On the first nine kilometres I was with Jari-Matti. I lost a lot in the narrow road at the end, it was damp, wet and slippy in places, that put me off a little bit.
01. 08. 2014 09:34
01. 08. 2014 08:34 CET 		5 flash info (4 - Østberg Mads / Andersson Jonas): We did some changes to the car and car is very different today. The car is working, it is very different from what I had yesterday. On a stage like that I struggle a lot and we had quite a few big moments. The car is working at the moment, yesterday for sure we had some problems. It was not good driving from my side.
01. 08. 2014 09:32
01. 08. 2014 08:32 CET 		5 flash info (9 - Mikkelsen Andreas / Fløene Ola): My time is really bad, guys in front are doing a good job. I was a bit too careful in there. The road is so wide, I come out of corners and I still have two metres to spare.
01. 08. 2014 09:31
01. 08. 2014 08:31 CET 		5 flash info (2 - Latvala Jari-Matti / Anttila Miikka): We had a moment on a left hander, we were quite a long time in the ditch, I stay calm. It was the very first stage on the recce.
01. 08. 2014 09:30
01. 08. 2014 08:30 CET 		5 flash info (1 - Ogier Sébastien / Ingrassia Julien): I think it is quite good. Should not be a disadvantage to be first on the road. Good grip, but I did not have the confidence to push, I was too cautious.

31. 07. 2014 21:06 CET 		4 retired (62 - Fisher Alastair / Noble Gordon): retired in SS 4
31. 07. 2014 21:58
31. 07. 2014 20:58 CET 		4 flash info (23 - Breen Craig / Martin Scott): It has been quite a tough day, I have had two punctures and I never really felt on my feet. The one clear stage we had, the time was quite respectable, so looking forward to tomorrow.
31. 07. 2014 21:57
31. 07. 2014 20:57 CET 		4 flash info (20 - Paddon Hayden / Kennard John): Last two stages were not so bad so we can continue improving on that. We need to close that gap up.
31. 07. 2014 21:56
31. 07. 2014 20:56 CET 		4 flash info (10 - Kubica Robert / Szczepaniak Maciej): I am not a big fan of gravel on tarmac. The weekend is very long, there is still long way to go.
31. 07. 2014 21:55
31. 07. 2014 20:55 CET 		4 flash info (8 - Hänninen Juho / Tuominen Tomi): There was so much sun so I had to slow down. Nice stage with lots of people for sure.
31. 07. 2014 21:54
31. 07. 2014 20:54 CET 		4 flash info (19 - Solberg Henning / Minor Ilka): Everything will be flatout tomorrow, what ever I can do. The car is very good, I had a puncture so I was very unlucky, but that is how rally is.
31. 07. 2014 21:52
31. 07. 2014 20:52 CET 		4 flash info (21 - Prokop Martin / Tománek Jan): The stage was clear except the last corner where we hit a firewall or something, hopefully the car is ok.
31. 07. 2014 21:51
31. 07. 2014 20:51 CET 		4 flash info (6 - Evans Elfyn / Barritt Daniel): We just try to be quite clean where needed, but it has been a quite difficult day. We try to have a good nights sleep and see what we can do tomorrow. Pacenotes have not been perfect they have been on the cautious side. We can work on them tonight and hope for better results tomorrow.
31. 07. 2014 21:49
31. 07. 2014 20:49 CET 		4 flash info (3 - Meeke Kris / Nagle Paul): Really good. I am delighted to be here. My first event this season that I have done last year and it is voice to be on the speed. It is going to be an interesting morning tomorrow, new stages that nobody has done.
31. 07. 2014 21:47
31. 07. 2014 20:47 CET 		4 flash info (7 - Neuville Thierry / Gilsoul Nicolas): We struggle a little bit with pacenotes on the first two stages. The confidence is a bit better. On this last stage the chicanes have been completely destroyed and gravel all over the road, quite a different stage from the recce. Last year I was on the pace and this year I struggle a little bit in the beginning.
31. 07. 2014 21:47
31. 07. 2014 20:47 CET 		4 flash info (5 - Hirvonen Mikko / Lehtinen Jarmo): It could be better,

31. 07. 2014 20:41 CET 		4 flash info (4 - Østberg Mads / Andersson Jonas): I am not happy with my performance today.
31. 07. 2014 21:40
31. 07. 2014 20:40 CET 		4 flash info (9 - Mikkelsen Andreas / Fløene Ola): Everything is ok, a bit too sideways here and there, not a good stage to be honest. It is good starting day.
31. 07. 2014 21:38
31. 07. 2014 20:38 CET 		4 flash info (2 - Latvala Jari-Matti / Anttila Miikka): Maybe a couple of places I was going too sideways of this stage. I hit the strawbale before finish, but no problems.
31. 07. 2014 21:37
31. 07. 2014 20:37 CET 		4 flash info (1 - Ogier Sébastien / Ingrassia Julien): One corner was a little bit tighter than I expected and lost some time there. I feels like I am now getting into the rally.

31. 07. 2014 19:52
31. 07. 2014 18:52 CET 		3 flash info (23 - Breen Craig / Martin Scott): I felt the start of a puncture less than a third of the way through the stage and it did not get any worse, I think it is front left. It is really strange, it is not a full puncture. The stage is so rough.
31. 07. 2014 19:51

31. 07. 2014 18:49 CET 		3 flash info (20 - Paddon Hayden / Kennard John): Its not so bad, we were only a couple of seconds off Juho. I have a lot more confidence when the grip is consistent.
31. 07. 2014 19:45
31. 07. 2014 18:45 CET 		3 flash info (10 - Kubica Robert / Szczepaniak Maciej): This stage was very tough for me, there was a lot of ruts and lines. It was not easy but I think we have a good long stage behind us so I am happy.
31. 07. 2014 19:43
31. 07. 2014 18:43 CET 		3 flash info (8 - Hänninen Juho / Tuominen Tomi): On this one we lost a lot of time, it was quite rough, these ruts already. We lost a few times from these ruts and after that I was not fully confident.
31. 07. 2014 19:43
31. 07. 2014 18:43 CET 		3 flash info (19 - Solberg Henning / Minor Ilka): About nine kilometres into the stage there was a stone in the road. Very frustrating… I could not see it was there in the corner.
31. 07. 2014 19:42
31. 07. 2014 18:42 CET 		3 (19 - Solberg Henning / Minor Ilka): puncture
31. 07. 2014 19:40
31. 07. 2014 18:40 CET 		3 flash info (21 - Prokop Martin / Tománek Jan): We have some small problems with the rear brakes. The first part was very rough with a lot of impacts on the rear.
31. 07. 2014 19:39
31. 07. 2014 18:39 CET 		3 flash info (6 - Evans Elfyn / Barritt Daniel): Still difficult, it was quite rough in places. The car jumped out of the ruts on a couple of times. I just eased off when it jumped out early on. This is Finland after all, these are the conditions and you have to respect it.
31. 07. 2014 19:37
31. 07. 2014 18:37 CET 		3 flash info (3 - Meeke Kris / Nagle Paul): No frustration, I wanted scratch and I don't think I got it. Here there was medium size ruts and still quite difficult to control and bounce around. Step by step I am happy. I don't want a limit, I want freedom to drive in the car with a smile on my face.
31. 07. 2014 19:35
31. 07. 2014 18:35 CET 		3 flash info (7 - Neuville Thierry / Gilsoul Nicolas): Much better, but I am bottoming a lot and the car is jumping out of the line. Sometimes I could not hold the steering, it was really difficult. I try to stay on the clean line. The conditions are different from testing and I am missing some confidence.
31. 07. 2014 19:34
31. 07. 2014 18:34 CET 		3 flash info (5 - Hirvonen Mikko / Lehtinen Jarmo): I was hoping to be closer to the Volkswagens but they are pushing really really hard. The car is a bit stiff for these conditions.
31. 07. 2014 19:33
31. 07. 2014 18:33 CET 		3 flash info (4 - Østberg Mads / Andersson Jonas): Not a good day, I am struggling a lot with the car, I am not able to drive the car like this. We need to change the setup to make the car better.
31. 07. 2014 19:33
31. 07. 2014 18:33 CET 		3 flash info (9 - Mikkelsen Andreas / Fløene Ola): I tried to increase the pace. It was really slippery in the beginning, I thought I had two punctures on the rear, the back end was all over the place.
31. 07. 2014 19:28
31. 07. 2014 18:28 CET 		3 flash info (2 - Latvala Jari-Matti / Anttila Miikka): We were one second slower at the beginning so I started to catch back at the end. In the beginning, we had problem with understeering, I went stiffer and higher with the car. I was struggling to find the rhythm.
31. 07. 2014 19:27
31. 07. 2014 18:27 CET 		3 flash info (1 - Ogier Sébastien / Ingrassia Julien): Quite more slippery, a bit more mud, some small ruts, but not too bad. I had one small moment at the end, I had an impact on the front, lost the front and I had to back off, I lost a bit of time there.
31. 07. 2014 17:57
31. 07. 2014 16:57 CET 		2 flash info (23 - Breen Craig / Martin Scott): Very tricky, the first stage was exceptionally tough. It is getting better now and we can try and find some more speed. I can carry so much more speed than it feels like. It will take a while but I am happy.
31. 07. 2014 17:54
31. 07. 2014 16:54 CET 		2 flash info (20 - Paddon Hayden / Kennard John): This stage was certainly better, the first one we got caught in the bad weather. This one was better, but there is still a long way to go. These new stages tend to suit us better.
31. 07. 2014 17:52
31. 07. 2014 16:52 CET 		2 flash info (10 - Kubica Robert / Szczepaniak Maciej): You cannot compare against top drivers especially on this kind of road. We are trying to drive consistently. There is a lot to learn. We are very happy, is only two stages but I am pretty happy with my driving, I take no risks at all. The pacenotes are good, I should believe in them.
31. 07. 2014 17:49
31. 07. 2014 16:49 CET 		2 flash info (8 - Hänninen Juho / Tuominen Tomi): Still we are loosing, but it is not that easy now. Main thing is keeping the line and some times I was not able to do it. Main thing is to keep it smooth.
31. 07. 2014 17:48
31. 07. 2014 16:48 CET 		2 flash info (19 - Solberg Henning / Minor Ilka): Very good, the car is good, I loved the rain on the last 9 kilometres.
31. 07. 2014 17:43
31. 07. 2014 16:43 CET 		2 flash info (21 - Prokop Martin / Tománek Jan): I have absolutely no feeling with the grip. I try to go clean again, but maybe it was too clean. I have no experience with this, no experience with these conditions. The time is not bad compared with Elfyn, but it can be better. I do not know where is the limit.
31. 07. 2014 17:41
31. 07. 2014 16:41 CET 		2 flash info (3 - Meeke Kris / Nagle Paul): The first couple of kilometres you began to see a little but marbly, also there was a bit of mud appearing, coming up through the ground. Interesting, new stage, new notes for everybody.
31. 07. 2014 17:40
31. 07. 2014 16:40 CET 		2 flash info (7 - Neuville Thierry / Gilsoul Nicolas): I struggle with the condition and my pacenotes are too slow, so I have to always overdrive with my pacenotes and this is not good for my confidence.
31. 07. 2014 17:37
31. 07. 2014 16:37 CET 		2 flash info (5 - Hirvonen Mikko / Lehtinen Jarmo): Latvala and Ogier are really putting quite unbelievable speed, we try to hang on but they are pulling away. Stages are still in a perfect condition, one or two corners that are a bit slippy, but not 10-seconds slippy.
31. 07. 2014 17:36
31. 07. 2014 16:36 CET 		2 flash info (4 - Østberg Mads / Andersson Jonas): I don't really understand it, it is going well, but the times are... ...not good.
31. 07. 2014 17:34
31. 07. 2014 16:34 CET 		2 flash info (9 - Mikkelsen Andreas / Fløene Ola): I am still a bit too cautious, in the fast I can still go faster. But we are building step by step. Let's see for the second run through Lankamaa if we can go faster. We take it stage by stage, I really don't trust the grip.
31. 07. 2014 17:33
31. 07. 2014 16:33 CET 		2 flash info (2 - Latvala Jari-Matti / Anttila Miikka): Good start, very very good grip on the road, only one slippy braking. Really good grip all the time. I can see that rain is not so good for the spectators but it is good for the drivers.
31. 07. 2014 17:32
31. 07. 2014 16:32 CET 		2 flash info (1 - Ogier Sébastien / Ingrassia Julien): This stage was very slippery with a lot of lose gravel so I am quite happy it is in wet condition. I was hoping for that, in the first one it was raining consistently.

31. 07. 2014 16:50
31. 07. 2014 15:50 CET 		1 flash info (23 - Breen Craig / Martin Scott): Definitely a baptism of fire. For some reason I cannot get a clean stage. It was like an absolute monsoon. But it is a long rally.
31. 07. 2014 16:47
31. 07. 2014 15:47 CET 		1 flash info (20 - Paddon Hayden / Kennard John): We caught the rain storm. Last 5-kilometres we could hardly see the road, but we are still here.
31. 07. 2014 16:46
31. 07. 2014 15:46 CET 		1 flash info (10 - Kubica Robert / Szczepaniak Maciej): It was not easy. Quite good stage to warm up. Only one junction I got in the line and got pulled into the side. We got some heavy rain 8-kilometres to the end.
31. 07. 2014 16:44
31. 07. 2014 15:44 CET 		1 flash info (8 - Hänninen Juho / Tuominen Tomi): Lost still some time, Jari-Matti had a good stage. We have a lot of power but even so it takes some energy in the mud. Reasonable start.
31. 07. 2014 16:42
31. 07. 2014 15:42 CET 		1 flash info (19 - Solberg Henning / Minor Ilka): It was ok. It is raining a lot again, this is how it is, I am trying my best.
31. 07. 2014 16:41
31. 07. 2014 15:41 CET 		1 flash info (21 - Prokop Martin / Tománek Jan): It was really difficult, you can feel the grip, you feel you can push a lot, but sometimes it is slippy like hell. This is the weekend to try some fast line. I think the time is not bad.
31. 07. 2014 16:36
31. 07. 2014 15:36 CET 		1 flash info (3 - Meeke Kris / Nagle Paul): Really quite happy, the rain before the start of the stage was something else, luckily it cleared before we started the stage. What an incredible place to drive a rally car. Not so bad, but it is a really long long rally.
31. 07. 2014 16:34
31. 07. 2014 15:34 CET 		1 flash info (7 - Neuville Thierry / Gilsoul Nicolas): I did not have perfect run, especially at the beginning I was too slow. I feel a lot of grip in the beginning, but it is taking a lot of the power. The road is getting more and more loose. Maybe I have to do a bit better myself.
31. 07. 2014 16:31
31. 07. 2014 15:31 CET 		1 flash info (4 - Østberg Mads / Andersson Jonas): It was just difficult stage. I was trying to find a good grip. The gravel colour is changing a lot and with it the grip level. I cannot do so much more. Some places for sure it is muddy and slippery. For sure I do not think it is getting faster.
31. 07. 2014 16:31
31. 07. 2014 15:31 CET 		1 flash info (5 - Hirvonen Mikko / Lehtinen Jarmo): Pretty good, it was a bit slippy in the end. It's ok, not too bad at all.
31. 07. 2014 16:30
31. 07. 2014 15:30 CET 		1 flash info (9 - Mikkelsen Andreas / Fløene Ola): I tried to keep a good speed, but there are so many places you can go so fast. I tried my best. A clean run so far, I am quite happy with my run.
31. 07. 2014 16:27
31. 07. 2014 15:27 CET 		1 flash info (2 - Latvala Jari-Matti / Anttila Miikka): Rain helped me. In the first two corners it was slippy, but after that it was good. I could have gone faster after that, but you never know how much rain.
31. 07. 2014 16:26
31. 07. 2014 15:26 CET 		1 flash info (1 - Ogier Sébastien / Ingrassia Julien): I could have been faster definitely, but it is raining and there were a couple of places with standing water, I was not flat out at this stage of the rally.
