INFORMATION ABOUT SS 2
retired (90 - Gago Diogo / Carvalho Jorge): retired in SS 2
retired (111 - Amiouni Nicolas / Del Barrio Carlos): retired in SS 2
(43 - Sousa Bernardo / Magalhães Hugo): problems with intercom
flash info (40 - Al-Attiyah Nasser / Bernacchini Giovanni): I'm not happy. We started today with an oil pressure warning and the turbo speed is low. But ok, I decided to carry on. Maybe it's just an electric problem. We'll see.
flash info (35 - Ketomaa Jari / Lindström Kaj): We caught some of the dust from his car in places but it was okay. The driving is very enjoyable, it's such a nice rally. I'm not going crazy. Flat out where I can but not in the corners.
flash info (10 - Kubica Robert / Szczepaniak Maciej): It is not easy as it its quite tricky, it is much more dry than I expected. For sure it is easier to have done this stage before.
flash info (8 - Hänninen Juho / Tuominen Tomi): No problems difficult to keep the rhythm, slippy in some places. Dani Sordo had a good time. It will be an interesting rally for sure.
flash info (20 - Sordo Dani / Martí Marc): I don't know, it is the first news I have about that (rear right window missing). This stage is really slippery, the car is a little bit understeering. I miss a lot of seconds in the stage all the time. First stage, a little bit nervous.
flash info (16 - Solberg Henning / Minor Ilka): I have not been in a car since Sweden and I am a little bit rusty. The car is perfect, the tyres is perfect, I am not perfect.
flash info (21 - Prokop Martin / Tománek Jan): Was really difficult as the conditions are changing so much. At the beginning I was too long on the brakes, it was better at the end. Really difficult to find the grip. Not easy for me, but I am happy with that.
flash info (11 - Tänak Ott / Mõlder Raigo): For me I was really careful. In the beginning it look dry and it was so slippy. The time is good and it is all ok.
flash info (7 - Neuville Thierry / Gilsoul Nicolas): I had no splits, but I took it quite steady. I struggle with understeer. I took it too steady. Different technique from testing, it is moving a lot and I do not feel so confident at the moment.
flash info (3 - Meeke Kris / Nagle Paul): I really enjoyed it. We recced this in the torrential rain and my notes are very simplistic as we could not see, it seems to be working. I am quite happy.
flash info (5 - Hirvonen Mikko / Lehtinen Jarmo): Its a good start, it is really tricky. Sometimes the surface looks the same, but the grip level is different. The line is sometimes so slippery that I try to go off the line to try to find some traction.
flash info (6 - Evans Elfyn / Barritt Daniel): I did some cutting, I am struggling a little bit with the position. It is not 100% precise, I need to calm it down a bit. I think I need to be a little bit more precise. It felt ok in there, but for my own personal development, I would like to clean it up.
flash info (9 - Mikkelsen Andreas / Markkula Mikko): We drive as I should, very safely, basically I want to get the confidence up after Mexico. Very slow driving. This is a tricky rally so we will use our head on this one.
(8 - Hänninen Juho / Tuominen Tomi): problems with intercom
flash info (4 - Østberg Mads / Andersson Jonas): I felt everyone was going to quicker than me. Very tricky stage quite a lot of slippy places in there. Not so bad, first experience with mud on this car.
flash info (2 - Latvala Jari-Matti / Anttila Miikka): Very difficult to get right rhythm, the grip level was changing a lot. I did not have the best rhythm, but it is not a bad time, for sure we can improve.
flash info (1 - Ogier Sébastien / Ingrassia Julien): It was a little bit slippery that I took it with caution.
Weather is sunny, but after heavy rain during last days surface is damp.
