|
(12 - Delecour François / Savignoni Dominique):
technical problem - gas pedal in SS 1 | |
(7 - Neuville Thierry / Gilsoul Nicolas):
After the first split, I lost the front of the car - I was certainly too fast in a normal right hander. I wanted to avoid the contact with a post there but could not stop the spin and crashed on the rear. We are both OK but we could not continue because of the damage on the rear. | |
| (51 - Gilbert Quentin / Jamoul Renaud): stopped in stage | |
|
(22 - Melichárek Jaroslav / Melichárek Erik):
Very hard stage, snow, ice, not good for me. First time in WRC. | |
| (35 - Maurin Julien / Klinger Nicolas): stopped in stage | |
|
(3 - Meeke Kris / Nagle Paul):
The problem is I am running half daylight, half dark and I could not see where the snow starts. That was a baptism of fire. It was incredible, absolutely incredible. | |
| (12 - Delecour François / Savignoni Dominique): stopped in stage | |
|
(11 - Bouffier Bryan / Panseri Xavier):
First corner I went out and hit a bridge, I thought my race was over at the first corner. As we have similar problem on second corner, I decided to slow down. In this condition with slick you cannot enjoy. | |
|
(10 - Kubica Robert / Szczepaniak Maciej):
It was very tough, there was snow, we were not expecting snow. We made a mistake. The lights were bouncing and we could not see anything. The toughest stage of my life. | |
|
(6 - Evans Elfyn / Barritt Daniel):
I made a very slow speed spin, but we did not hit anything. Very very steady but it is about survival at this stage. | |
|
(9 - Mikkelsen Andreas / Markkula Mikko):
That was absolutely terrible, I have never done anything like that before. It is not easy to start the stage with ice and slicks. Suddenly the ice comes without anything in the pace notes. We take it very careful. | |
|
(21 - Prokop Martin / Ernst Michal):
Difficult, but for us it is over. We have no battery, it is over. It is not charging, we are driving without lights. Down to eight volts. | |
| (21 - Prokop Martin / Ernst Michal): problems with battery | |
|
(4 - Østberg Mads / Andersson Jonas):
Unbelievable. So so tricky conditions, the snow took me completely by surprise. We went off the road, we were very very lucky. Ok difficult conditions, I think everyone was taken by surprise and so was I. | |
|
(8 - Sordo Dani / Martí Marc):
This is my most difficult stage in my career. It is dry at the beginning and now it is snow and snow with the slick tyres, it is difficult. I am happy to be at the end. | |
|
(5 - Hirvonen Mikko / Lehtinen Jarmo):
What a start for the season. There were a few kilometres where it was snowing, unbelievably slippery in some places. | |
|
(2 - Latvala Jari-Matti / Anttila Miikka):
I saw Neuville off the road, less than 6 kms after the start. After that is was difficult to find the rhythm, I drove very slow after that. I have not driven the car in these conditions. But I have to come to the finish, I crash on these conditions last year. | |
| (4 - Østberg Mads / Andersson Jonas): was out of the road | |
|
(1 - Ogier Sébastien / Ingrassia Julien):
Crazy conditions on slick tyres, full snow at the beginning of the stage. First corner I hit the wall. | |
|
(7 - Neuville Thierry / Gilsoul Nicolas):
accident in SS 1 | |
| Small rain and snowfall, road is mostly wet. | |
