Date and time SS Information
27. 06. 2016 14:58 CET 19 (21 - Prokop Martin / Tománek Jan): Penalty of stewards was cancelled.
12. 06. 2016 16:47 CET 19 retired (30 - Al Rajhi Yazeed / Orr Michael): retired after SS 19
12. 06. 2016 13:05 CET 19 flash info (47 - Kruuda Karl / Järveoja Martin): A fantastic result. I thought top five here would be good. Thanks to the DMACK guys for giving me the chance to drive. I think I've proved I still have some speed in me. I hope to be back in Poland and Finland where I can push much, much harder.
12. 06. 2016 13:02 CET 19 flash info (43 - Kopecký Jan / Dresler Pavel): Thanks to the team. A nice weekend apart from one puncture - that's it. This stage was like Dakar. I feel too young to drive this sort of stage.
12. 06. 2016 13:01 CET 19 flash info (34 - Suninen Teemu / Markkula Mikko): It's been a tough weekend - especially the last stage, almost impossible to turn the car in the hairpins.
12. 06. 2016 13:01 CET 19 flash info (20 - Neuville Thierry / Gilsoul Nicolas): We had a great weekend. Great things come to those who go and earn it. This result goes to Philippe Bugalski. He helped me a lot with my career and it would have been his birthday today. Hopefully this win will set me up for the rest of the season. A great confidence boost.
12. 06. 2016 13:01 CET 19 flash info (2 - Latvala Jari-Matti / Anttila Miikka): One of the hardest final stages I have driven. I wanted to drive fast but save the car too.
12. 06. 2016 13:01 CET 19 flash info (1 - Ogier Sébastien / Ingrassia Julien): Such big ruts it was impossible to turn - I had to go backwards. I've never seen such bad conditions in a stage. It's been a very positive weekend in terms of points - and that's what matters most.
12. 06. 2016 13:00 CET 19 flash info (4 - Sordo Dani / Martí Marc): Important points here. We worked really really hard and now we are second in the drivers' championship.
12. 06. 2016 13:00 CET 19 flash info (12 - Tänak Ott / Mõlder Raigo): The most tricky rally that I've ever done. I'm happy to get through. We have to sit down and work out what we can do in Poland.
12. 06. 2016 13:00 CET 19 flash info (6 - Camilli Eric / Veillas Benjamin): We are so, so happy. A big boost to our confidence. Good speed on gravel on the first and second loop. Thanks to the team and to Malcolm.
12. 06. 2016 12:59 CET 19 flash info (16 - Solberg Henning / Minor Ilka): I'm quite happy, flatout. Difficult with the rear suspension in the ruts here but I did my best.
12. 06. 2016 12:59 CET 19 flash info (21 - Prokop Martin / Tománek Jan): My favourite rally of the year but from the beginning we struggled with the penalty decision. I will leave the championship now. I'm not happy with this situation. I don't know when I will come back.
12. 06. 2016 12:29 CET 19 flash info (9 - Mikkelsen Andreas / Jæger Anders): I went slow here so I can have a better start position in Poland. Not such fun for the TV but these are the rules.
12. 06. 2016 12:29 CET 19 flash info (10 - Abbring Kevin / Marshall Sebastian): The technical problems can happen and the team did a good job to get us through. The positives are my first stage win and we got a nice setup for the future. We worked really hard to get a rhythm. We really enjoyed this last stage.
12. 06. 2016 12:28 CET 19 flash info (30 - Al Rajhi Yazeed / Orr Michael): Ok, we finish and take some good experience, that's the most important thing.
12. 06. 2016 12:28 CET 19 flash info (18 - Gorban Valeriy / Korsia Volodymyr): So rough in there now - a lot of stones on the road. We're happy to finish after so many problems.
12. 06. 2016 12:02 CET 18 flash info (47 - Kruuda Karl / Järveoja Martin): I would have liked to be fighting but at the same time I'm pleased I don't have to go flatout here.
12. 06. 2016 12:02 CET 18 flash info (43 - Kopecký Jan / Dresler Pavel): We cracked our jack changing wheels, but the guys in the team helped to fix it.
12. 06. 2016 12:02 CET 18 flash info (34 - Suninen Teemu / Markkula Mikko): Quite fun. Clean with no risks.
12. 06. 2016 12:02 CET 18 flash info (20 - Neuville Thierry / Gilsoul Nicolas): That's pretty comfortable now. If I do no mistakes it should be okay. We will focus on bringing the car back home - that's more important than pushing for Power stage points.
12. 06. 2016 12:01 CET 18 flash info (2 - Latvala Jari-Matti / Anttila Miikka): No attack, just trying go keep a good rhythm. There's no chance to close the gap. Let's see if we can get some points on the Power stage. I have one new tyre to fit.
12. 06. 2016 12:01 CET 18 flash info (1 - Ogier Sébastien / Ingrassia Julien): Nothing changed for us, just trying to save the tyres. The next one is not the sort of Power stage I'd like to push on but for sure one or two points would be good.
12. 06. 2016 12:00 CET 18 flash info (4 - Sordo Dani / Martí Marc): It was ok. Just driving. A really clean line here. We will try to take some Power stage points.
12. 06. 2016 12:00 CET 18 flash info (12 - Tänak Ott / Mõlder Raigo): Quite high grip. This is always a stage I enjoy but this time I was just floating around.
12. 06. 2016 12:00 CET 18 flash info (16 - Solberg Henning / Minor Ilka): Flat out.
12. 06. 2016 12:00 CET 18 flash info (6 - Camilli Eric / Veillas Benjamin): It was good. A couple of small mistakes.
12. 06. 2016 11:59 CET 18 flash info (21 - Prokop Martin / Tománek Jan): Really clean. I enjoyed it.
12. 06. 2016 11:59 CET 18 flash info (9 - Mikkelsen Andreas / Jæger Anders): Better on the second pass. Trying to push a little bit to see what we can do. I'm happy enough. On the Power stage we will go easy. I promise. I want to be third on the road in Poland.
12. 06. 2016 11:59 CET 18 flash info (10 - Abbring Kevin / Marshall Sebastian): Nice rhythm. We want to save the tyres a bit for the last stage. It's so sandy we'll need the grip.
12. 06. 2016 11:59 CET 18 flash info (30 - Al Rajhi Yazeed / Orr Michael): More grip than I was expecting. We improve.
12. 06. 2016 11:58 CET 18 flash info (18 - Gorban Valeriy / Korsia Volodymyr): Much better than the first time. The road is looking quite good.
12. 06. 2016 10:01 CET 17 flash info (45 - Maurin Julien / Ural Olivier): So much gravel but a lot of fun.
12. 06. 2016 10:01 CET 17 flash info (32 - Kremer Armin / Winklhofer Pirmin): So sandy here. Very slippery.
12. 06. 2016 10:01 CET 17 flash info (47 - Kruuda Karl / Järveoja Martin): A very pleasant morning I would say. Beautiful scenery but a tricky stage.
12. 06. 2016 10:00 CET 17 flash info (43 - Kopecký Jan / Dresler Pavel): It's a pity about Fuchs. It was a good battle with him.
12. 06. 2016 10:00 CET 17 flash info (34 - Suninen Teemu / Markkula Mikko): Ok, but so sandy it feels like we are in Dakar.
12. 06. 2016 09:59 CET 17 flash info (20 - Neuville Thierry / Gilsoul Nicolas): Jari-Matti never gives up. A pretty clean run but it's going to be tough for the car on the second pass here.
12. 06. 2016 09:59 CET 17 flash info (2 - Latvala Jari-Matti / Anttila Miikka): I lost three seconds on the first stage and the gap is 19sec - I have no chance to catch Thierry without a mistake. I just try to find a comfortable rhythm without big risks.
12. 06. 2016 09:59 CET 17 flash info (1 - Ogier Sébastien / Ingrassia Julien): A bit like driving on the beach. So much sand. Not so enjoyable to drive. In conditions like this I don't think there will be a big push on the Power stage.
12. 06. 2016 09:58 CET 17 flash info (4 - Sordo Dani / Martí Marc): I missed a junction. Nothing very important. Very slippy and rocky.
12. 06. 2016 09:58 CET 17 flash info (12 - Tänak Ott / Mõlder Raigo): All good. No worries. It's been a tricky rally, I try to manage to get to the end.
12. 06. 2016 09:58 CET 17 flash info (16 - Solberg Henning / Minor Ilka): The rear suspension is broken so I just pushed as fast as I could. It's not easy but I don't care. I just drive.
12. 06. 2016 09:57 CET 17 flash info (6 - Camilli Eric / Veillas Benjamin): Some problems with engine cutting, I dont know where is problem.
12. 06. 2016 09:56 CET 17 flash info (21 - Prokop Martin / Tománek Jan): Quite fine dust. Interesting to drive like this. It's a bit like Dakar. I hit a big stone in the middle of the car. Lots of stones on the road from Mikkelsen - he's pushing.
12. 06. 2016 09:55 CET 17 flash info (9 - Mikkelsen Andreas / Jæger Anders): Probably the worst stage I've ever done in terms of cleaning.
12. 06. 2016 09:55 CET 17 flash info (10 - Abbring Kevin / Marshall Sebastian): In one section I couldn't downshift properly. Then it stopped completely. I did a power cycle and now it seems ok. Difficult to get a clean run here.
12. 06. 2016 09:18 CET 17 flash info (18 - Gorban Valeriy / Korsia Volodymyr): In places it's like the Sahara desert.
12. 06. 2016 09:15 CET 17 (10 - Abbring Kevin / Marshall Sebastian): stopped in stage, continue
12. 06. 2016 09:15 CET 17 (30 - Al Rajhi Yazeed / Orr Michael): was out of road
12. 06. 2016 10:04 CET 16 retired (42 - Fuchs Nicolás / Mussano Fernando): accident in SS 16
12. 06. 2016 10:03 CET 16 retired (85 - Hoelbling Luca / Grassi Mauro): didnt start into Leg 3
12. 06. 2016 09:19 CET 16 (42 - Fuchs Nicolás / Mussano Fernando): rolled
12. 06. 2016 09:12 CET 16 flash info (20 - Neuville Thierry / Gilsoul Nicolas): A good stage for us. I tried to drive clean. The feeling is good and I'm much more comfortable with the balance of the car. I think we can continue like this.
12. 06. 2016 09:08 CET 16 flash info (2 - Latvala Jari-Matti / Anttila Miikka): I tried to have a good run and not to take risks. We had a good rhythm but if Thierry's gaining three or four seconds here then without a mistake then no chance.
12. 06. 2016 09:05 CET 16 flash info (1 - Ogier Sébastien / Ingrassia Julien): I'm not fully concentrated. In really, really safe driving mode. There is a big gap in front and behind now, so it's just about saving the tyres ready for the Power stage.
12. 06. 2016 09:02 CET 16 flash info (4 - Sordo Dani / Martí Marc): It was ok. Normal. Not taking risks. Just watching the battle at the front.
12. 06. 2016 08:59 CET 16 flash info (12 - Tänak Ott / Mõlder Raigo): A nice stage, but like normal I'm struggling with the same thing. We're doing what we can.
12. 06. 2016 08:56 CET 16 flash info (16 - Solberg Henning / Minor Ilka): The rear suspension is broken on the right side. It was broken when we left service earlier. So no fight here. A shame.
12. 06. 2016 08:55 CET 16 flash info (6 - Camilli Eric / Veillas Benjamin): Good. I like this stage. It should be good on the second pass. Henning is the target today.
12. 06. 2016 08:51 CET 16 flash info (21 - Prokop Martin / Tománek Jan): A nice start but there was a marshal in the road. Enjoying my driving much more than earlier in the event.
12. 06. 2016 08:51 CET 16 flash info (9 - Mikkelsen Andreas / Jæger Anders): It was alright. Trying a few different setups.
12. 06. 2016 08:45 CET 16 flash info (10 - Abbring Kevin / Marshall Sebastian): I have to wake up a bit I think. Hard to get the rhythm. Much more grip than expected.
12. 06. 2016 08:45 CET 16 flash info (30 - Al Rajhi Yazeed / Orr Michael): It's very slippery.
12. 06. 2016 08:42 CET 16 flash info (18 - Gorban Valeriy / Korsia Volodymyr): It's tough.
11. 06. 2016 20:11 CET 15 retired (91 - Leoni Alessandro / Demontis Marco): retired in SS 15
11. 06. 2016 20:11 CET 15 retired (86 - Bitti Giovanni / Achenza Stefano): retired in SS 15
11. 06. 2016 20:11 CET 15 retired (64 - Giusti Igor / Dini Gilbert): retired in SS 15
11. 06. 2016 19:53 CET 15 flash info (40 - Gilbert Quentin / Jamoul Renaud): A very difficult rally. Today some good times when everything is good but on this one we broke the shifter - so stuck in fourth gear.
11. 06. 2016 19:53 CET 15 flash info (45 - Maurin Julien / Ural Olivier): Not easy today. We went off on the first stage this afternoon and damaged the front of the car. We lost power and from then on I just concentrated on completing the loop.
11. 06. 2016 19:29 CET 15 flash info (47 - Kruuda Karl / Järveoja Martin): I really enjoyed this stage. I'm pretty happy that I'm learning the car - and in a safe mode too. Next time, if I come back, I can push much harder.
11. 06. 2016 19:28 CET 15 flash info (43 - Kopecký Jan / Dresler Pavel): A good day for us but I lost the brakes for the last four kilometres in here.
11. 06. 2016 19:19 CET 15 flash info (42 - Fuchs Nicolás / Mussano Fernando): A nice day. A few problems but I think it's ok.
11. 06. 2016 19:19 CET 15 (18 - Gorban Valeriy / Korsia Volodymyr): puncture
11. 06. 2016 19:19 CET 15 flash info (34 - Suninen Teemu / Markkula Mikko): I have to be happy with my driving but one spin so not 100 per cent.
11. 06. 2016 19:18 CET 15 flash info (30 - Al Rajhi Yazeed / Orr Michael): After 15km we heard something cracking, then step by step we lost drive. The propshaft is broken and we drove the last 25km with two-wheel drive.
11. 06. 2016 19:18 CET 15 flash info (10 - Abbring Kevin / Marshall Sebastian): The first stage win earlier today was good for the confidence. We don't drive the WRC car very often so I'm pleased we're making progress. Ok, we've learned a lot and I hope for another good day tomorrow.
11. 06. 2016 19:12 CET 15 retired (5 - Østberg Mads / Fløene Ola): technical problem in SS 15
11. 06. 2016 19:09 CET 15 flash info (16 - Solberg Henning / Minor Ilka): I broke the [anti] roll bar on the first stage. I've made a few changes since then. I really can't go any faster in this car.
11. 06. 2016 19:01 CET 15 flash info (21 - Prokop Martin / Tománek Jan): Something strange with the engine and the brake balance here. Difficult to drive. I'm pleased to get this one done.
11. 06. 2016 18:59 CET 15 flash info (6 - Camilli Eric / Veillas Benjamin): We were pushing in this one. No brakes at the end. I'm tired.
11. 06. 2016 18:55 CET 15 flash info (20 - Neuville Thierry / Gilsoul Nicolas): The car in slippy conditions is just amazing to drive. We can go pretty, pretty fast. We've done another good day. It's been a pleasure to be fighting Jari-Matti. I'm happy. It will be tough tomorrow but we're going to prepare properly and keep fighting.
11. 06. 2016 18:52 CET 15 flash info (12 - Tänak Ott / Mõlder Raigo): This one was too long for us. Over the last 15kms we were driving very slowly. Tomorrow's shorter stages should suit us better.
11. 06. 2016 18:49 CET 15 (5 - Østberg Mads / Fløene Ola): stopped in stage
11. 06. 2016 18:48 CET 15 flash info (2 - Latvala Jari-Matti / Anttila Miikka): I can't do better than this, I did a really, really good run. If Thierry is faster then respect to him. I was a bit too careful earlier this afternoon. Sometimes you have to play safe. Let's see how Thierry does. Whether there is still a fight tomorrow.
11. 06. 2016 18:46 CET 15 flash info (4 - Sordo Dani / Martí Marc): I passed Mads and after that I drove more slowly, not to risk the car. But we also had a problem with a sticking throttle - very difficult in corners.
11. 06. 2016 18:37 CET 15 flash info (1 - Ogier Sébastien / Ingrassia Julien): I try as much as I could. There's nothing more I can do. I said before if I reached the podium here it would be a great result. The strange feeling at the rear was a problem on the faster sections of the previous stage.
11. 06. 2016 18:00 CET 15 Stewards will decide tonight what, if any, adjustments to make to WRC2 stage times from the earlier Monte Lerno stage (SS12).
11. 06. 2016 14:24 CET 15 Stage will be delayed for 10 minutes.
11. 06. 2016 19:00 CET 14 Stewards will decide tonight what, if any, adjustments to make to WRC2 stage times from the earlier Monte Lerno stage (SS12).
11. 06. 2016 18:33 CET 14 (5 - Østberg Mads / Fløene Ola): going slowly
11. 06. 2016 18:25 CET 14 retired (48 - Turán Frigyes / Zsiros Gábor): retired in SS 14
11. 06. 2016 18:07 CET 14 flash info (32 - Kremer Armin / Winklhofer Pirmin): We stopped in the stage once, we went off and had to turn the car around.
11. 06. 2016 18:01 CET 14 flash info (43 - Kopecký Jan / Dresler Pavel): Good but a lot of rocks on the line. A big hit to the front right. Lucky to not get a puncture.
11. 06. 2016 17:57 CET 14 flash info (42 - Fuchs Nicolás / Mussano Fernando): A problem with the turbo I think.
11. 06. 2016 17:53 CET 14 flash info (34 - Suninen Teemu / Markkula Mikko): I spun and had to reverse once. Otherwise ok.
11. 06. 2016 17:53 CET 14 (34 - Suninen Teemu / Markkula Mikko): spun
11. 06. 2016 17:50 CET 14 (18 - Gorban Valeriy / Korsia Volodymyr): puncture
11. 06. 2016 17:48 CET 14 flash info (10 - Abbring Kevin / Marshall Sebastian): Gearbox. We did it in a compression in the previous stage. We cannot jump or hit the gearbox now. I'm convinced we are going to make it but we have to be careful. We've had some great stage times but now we have to focus on surviving.
11. 06. 2016 17:40 CET 14 flash info (6 - Camilli Eric / Veillas Benjamin): Working well. Too cautious at the start of the stage when there was so much rain and I could see nothing.
11. 06. 2016 17:34 CET 14 flash info (20 - Neuville Thierry / Gilsoul Nicolas): I started in heavy, heavy rain for the first six or seven kilometres. Very tricky. I tried to avoid the worst of the water splashes. We limited the damage at the end. I was expecting to lose much more.
11. 06. 2016 17:30 CET 14 flash info (12 - Tänak Ott / Mõlder Raigo): It was like being in a pool for the first few kilometres. You couldn't see anything and all the ruts were full of water. The second half was dry.
11. 06. 2016 17:27 CET 14 flash info (2 - Latvala Jari-Matti / Anttila Miikka): It was raining very, very heavily near the start and the road is getting slippery. Very difficult to drive here. Visibility in the high speed places is bad.
11. 06. 2016 17:26 CET 14 (9 - Mikkelsen Andreas / Jæger Anders): Car went off after hitting a rock. It has a broken track control arm. Mikkelsen and his codriver are trying to fix it.
11. 06. 2016 17:24 CET 14 flash info (4 - Sordo Dani / Martí Marc): It started to rain in the middle of the stage. I will be difficult. The car is good. Not so bad. Better than before.
11. 06. 2016 17:21 CET 14 flash info (5 - Østberg Mads / Fløene Ola): Mikkelsen has crashed in a high speed place. There were no trees around, I think he has rolled but they were both out of the car. It's raining heavily now in the stage. Not easy to judge the grip.
11. 06. 2016 17:19 CET 14 retired (9 - Mikkelsen Andreas / Jæger Anders): accident in SS 14
11. 06. 2016 17:14 CET 14 (9 - Mikkelsen Andreas / Jæger Anders): stopped in stage
11. 06. 2016 17:14 CET 14 flash info (1 - Ogier Sébastien / Ingrassia Julien): Difficult. I think I have a problem with car. I don't know what but the rear is very unstable. Maybe a diff problem. Really uncomfortable to drive.
11. 06. 2016 17:09 CET 14 rain
11. 06. 2016 14:24 CET 14 Stage will be delayed for 10 minutes.
11. 06. 2016 18:56 CET 13 retired (88 - Marrone Francesco / Fresu Francesco): retired after SS 13
11. 06. 2016 18:07 CET 13 retired (41 - Aasen Marius / Engan Veronica): technical problem after SS 13
11. 06. 2016 18:00 CET 13 Stewards will decide tonight what, if any, adjustments to make to WRC2 stage times from the earlier Monte Lerno stage (SS12).
11. 06. 2016 17:18 CET 13 (10 - Abbring Kevin / Marshall Sebastian): stopped after stage with oil leaking
11. 06. 2016 17:02 CET 13 flash info (10 - Abbring Kevin / Marshall Sebastian): That's not good because I couldn't see what gear I was in or the optimum time to change gear. Otherwise a really good stage. There was one big impact though.
11. 06. 2016 16:52 CET 13 flash info (6 - Camilli Eric / Veillas Benjamin): The time is fine. A good stage. We are alright.
11. 06. 2016 16:51 CET 13 flash info (20 - Neuville Thierry / Gilsoul Nicolas): I pushed hard. I sweat a lot. In the last part the car was jumping like hell, hitting rocks.
11. 06. 2016 16:49 CET 13 flash info (12 - Tänak Ott / Mõlder Raigo): Tyre just exploded on the a straight. I was lucky.
11. 06. 2016 16:48 CET 13 flash info (2 - Latvala Jari-Matti / Anttila Miikka): Not a good time if you compare to Dani or Sebastien. With so many rocks around I wanted to be careful. Maybe I was too cautious.
11. 06. 2016 16:48 CET 13 flash info (4 - Sordo Dani / Martí Marc): Outside the line there is not a lot of grip. I'm happy with my time.
11. 06. 2016 16:48 CET 13 flash info (5 - Østberg Mads / Fløene Ola): A big confusion at the start with our start time. Andreas was late starting and the marshals wanted to send me in just one minute after him. We refused, but it's not good to be arguing just before the start. That was a distraction.
11. 06. 2016 16:48 CET 13 (12 - Tänak Ott / Mõlder Raigo): puncture
11. 06. 2016 16:34 CET 13 flash info (9 - Mikkelsen Andreas / Jæger Anders): Fine. I'm actually quite happy with my drive. Seb did a great job here.
11. 06. 2016 16:30 CET 13 flash info (1 - Ogier Sébastien / Ingrassia Julien): No question on tyres. It's much too hot now for the softs. Struggled for grip at the rear. Some sections really rough. I tried.
11. 06. 2016 14:23 CET 13 Stage will be delayed for 10 minutes.
11. 06. 2016 17:59 CET 12 Stewards will decide tonight what, if any, adjustments to make to WRC2 stage times from the earlier Monte Lerno stage (SS12).
11. 06. 2016 12:53 CET 12 retired (63 - Brazzoli Enrico / Barone Maurizio): retired in SS 12
11. 06. 2016 12:30 CET 12 retired (35 - Lappi Esapekka / Ferm Janne): technical problem in SS 12
11. 06. 2016 12:03 CET 12 flash info (41 - Aasen Marius / Engan Veronica): Front left puncture and no brakes.
11. 06. 2016 12:00 CET 12 Despite the words of drivers, stage was not stopped and normally continue. But drivers affected by this SOS board will obtain notional time.
11. 06. 2016 11:59 CET 12 flash info (43 - Kopecký Jan / Dresler Pavel): We drove this non competitively. A marshal was in the road with an SOS board.
11. 06. 2016 11:59 CET 12 flash info (34 - Suninen Teemu / Markkula Mikko): The SOS board was shown at the Bertelli crash. So we stopped. I think the stage is cancelled.
11. 06. 2016 11:56 CET 12 Some crews were slowed down at Bertelli's crash by SOS sign, codriver needs medical check.
11. 06. 2016 11:54 CET 12 retired (44 - Scandola Umberto / D'Amore Guido): technical problem - radiator in SS 12
11. 06. 2016 11:48 CET 12 (40 - Gilbert Quentin / Jamoul Renaud): stopped in stage, continue
11. 06. 2016 11:45 CET 12 (44 - Scandola Umberto / D'Amore Guido): stopped again
11. 06. 2016 11:45 CET 12 (41 - Aasen Marius / Engan Veronica): stopped in stage, continue
11. 06. 2016 11:41 CET 12 flash info (18 - Gorban Valeriy / Korsia Volodymyr): We lost almost five minutes. We stopped to change a wheel. We hit a rock and now the steering is not running straight.
11. 06. 2016 11:36 CET 12 flash info (10 - Abbring Kevin / Marshall Sebastian): After 10km we felt we had a slow puncture at the rear, then we had a front-left puncture but I didn't notice because of the one at the rear. I noticed when the front wing flew off.
11. 06. 2016 11:34 CET 12 (43 - Kopecký Jan / Dresler Pavel): stopped in stage, continue
11. 06. 2016 11:33 CET 12 flash info (30 - Al Rajhi Yazeed / Orr Michael): Lucky. We had no brakes for the last 20km.
11. 06. 2016 11:31 CET 12 (42 - Fuchs Nicolás / Mussano Fernando): stopped in stage, continue
11. 06. 2016 11:28 CET 12 (44 - Scandola Umberto / D'Amore Guido): stopped in stage, continue
11. 06. 2016 11:26 CET 12 (34 - Suninen Teemu / Markkula Mikko): stopped in stage, continue
11. 06. 2016 11:22 CET 12 (10 - Abbring Kevin / Marshall Sebastian): puncture

11. 06. 2016 11:20 CET 12 (10 - Abbring Kevin / Marshall Sebastian): stopped in stage, continue
11. 06. 2016 11:19 CET 12 flash info (21 - Prokop Martin / Tománek Jan): We tried the soft compound but before the stage they got really warm. Not the best choice.
11. 06. 2016 11:19 CET 12 retired (37 - Bertelli Lorenzo / Scattolin Simone): accident in SS 12
11. 06. 2016 11:18 CET 12 (21 - Prokop Martin / Tománek Jan): puncture
11. 06. 2016 11:17 CET 12 (35 - Lappi Esapekka / Ferm Janne): stopped in stage
11. 06. 2016 11:15 CET 12 flash info (6 - Camilli Eric / Veillas Benjamin): It's very hard to stay concentrated for such a long period of time. The time is a good surprise. I thought we would be slower.
11. 06. 2016 11:15 CET 12 flash info (20 - Neuville Thierry / Gilsoul Nicolas): I gave everything. A pretty good run, no mistakes, but maybe I was slightly too careful near the end. It was difficult to keep the car in a clean line.
11. 06. 2016 11:11 CET 12 (37 - Bertelli Lorenzo / Scattolin Simone): stopped in stage
11. 06. 2016 11:09 CET 12 flash info (12 - Tänak Ott / Mõlder Raigo): Really hard but we managed to make it through. I feel we have a big job to do. With this road position we should be winning stages.
11. 06. 2016 11:09 CET 12 flash info (2 - Latvala Jari-Matti / Anttila Miikka): The rear was moving about and I was struggling with the grip with the soft tyres. I definitely needed hard at the front though.
11. 06. 2016 11:03 CET 12 flash info (4 - Sordo Dani / Martí Marc): Very hot and dusty. We lost time with the full soft tyres - we needed harder.
11. 06. 2016 11:03 CET 12 flash info (5 - Østberg Mads / Fløene Ola): Not bad. A very good stage and tyre choice. A bit of a stress in the tyre fitting zone. We took the choice - two hards and two softs - at the last minute after we saw that Ogier took full softs.
11. 06. 2016 11:03 CET 12 flash info (9 - Mikkelsen Andreas / Jæger Anders): For the first time I'm not so bad here. Some room for improvement though - a bit cautious in places perhaps. We're closing in.
11. 06. 2016 11:02 CET 12 flash info (1 - Ogier Sébastien / Ingrassia Julien): I don't know. When you start first we have no choice than the soft tyres. In our position it's an obligation.
11. 06. 2016 10:45 CET 12 WRC crews are starting with 3-minutes gaps.
11. 06. 2016 10:01 CET 12 Stage will be delayed for 21 minutes.

11. 06. 2016 10:00 CET 11 flash info (42 - Fuchs Nicolás / Mussano Fernando): I like this one a lot.
11. 06. 2016 10:00 CET 11 flash info (34 - Suninen Teemu / Markkula Mikko): My first time on this stage in a four-wheel drive car. Not such a great drive.
11. 06. 2016 10:00 CET 11 flash info (35 - Lappi Esapekka / Ferm Janne): Clean. No mistakes. Everything is fine.
11. 06. 2016 09:59 CET 11 flash info (44 - Scandola Umberto / D'Amore Guido): This is rally, but we carry on with the day. We hope.
11. 06. 2016 09:59 CET 11 flash info (20 - Neuville Thierry / Gilsoul Nicolas): The stage is so soft there's no way to get enough heat in these hard tyres.
11. 06. 2016 09:31 CET 11 flash info (37 - Bertelli Lorenzo / Scattolin Simone): Not a good stage. The rear of the car was moving all around.
11. 06. 2016 09:28 CET 11 flash info (6 - Camilli Eric / Veillas Benjamin): Very good. Narrow and fast between the trees here. We are very happy about this start to the morning.
11. 06. 2016 09:28 CET 11 flash info (20 - Neuville Thierry / Gilsoul Nicolas): Always been a really fun stage. We have some damaged tyres from the previous stage so we had to fit two softs here.
11. 06. 2016 09:19 CET 11 flash info (12 - Tänak Ott / Mõlder Raigo): Always been a really fun stage. We have some damaged tyres from the previous stage so we had to fit two softs here.
11. 06. 2016 09:19 CET 11 flash info (2 - Latvala Jari-Matti / Anttila Miikka): I'm happy with the driving, I think we are the first car to use a mix of tyres here: soft at the front and hard at the rear.
11. 06. 2016 09:17 CET 11 flash info (4 - Sordo Dani / Martí Marc): No grip at all in the rear. Impossible to keep it in the line. I lost a lot of time. Incredible. Like a two-wheel drive car.
11. 06. 2016 09:16 CET 11 flash info (5 - Østberg Mads / Fløene Ola): A really nice stage. I enjoyed it. So far not so bad, Andreas has increased his pace a lot and it looks like we are still on his tail.
11. 06. 2016 09:15 CET 11 flash info (9 - Mikkelsen Andreas / Jæger Anders): Happy with the driving, The car is amazing.
11. 06. 2016 09:15 CET 11 flash info (1 - Ogier Sébastien / Ingrassia Julien): Like normal. A good stage. I tried to push but obviously it's not easy. I gave my best. That's how it is.
11. 06. 2016 19:52 CET 10 (45 - Maurin Julien / Ural Olivier): was out of road
11. 06. 2016 10:09 CET 10 retired (49 - Bestard Augusto / Mendonca Fernando): retired after SS 10
11. 06. 2016 09:01 CET 10 flash info (34 - Suninen Teemu / Markkula Mikko): Ah. The driving felt good but different tyres I think. I hope I can make up the time.
11. 06. 2016 09:01 CET 10 flash info (35 - Lappi Esapekka / Ferm Janne): Everything is going to plan. We knew this rally was tough and rough, we have to stay on the safe side.
11. 06. 2016 09:01 CET 10 flash info (44 - Scandola Umberto / D'Amore Guido): We hit a rock at the 11km point.
11. 06. 2016 08:53 CET 10 (44 - Scandola Umberto / D'Amore Guido): puncture
11. 06. 2016 08:53 CET 10 flash info (30 - Al Rajhi Yazeed / Orr Michael): I feel ok after the roll yesterday but this was not a good start today. It is very slippery and we need softer springs. We start smoothly and see how we go.
11. 06. 2016 08:47 CET 10 flash info (10 - Abbring Kevin / Marshall Sebastian): It feels really good. It was difficult after yesterday morning's loop, but we changed something on the car, which improved the balance and it feels really good now. I have confidence in the car and it is working well. All good.
11. 06. 2016 08:46 CET 10 flash info (37 - Bertelli Lorenzo / Scattolin Simone): We did a mistake, went wide in a junction and lost some seconds. Everything else ok.
11. 06. 2016 08:44 CET 10 flash info (16 - Solberg Henning / Minor Ilka): So many big stones in the road. I tried to avoid them. Flat out.
11. 06. 2016 08:43 CET 10 flash info (21 - Prokop Martin / Tománek Jan): A lot of stones on the road that I was trying to avoid. I didn't enjoy it.
11. 06. 2016 08:41 CET 10 flash info (6 - Camilli Eric / Veillas Benjamin): The best time? Really? That's very good. Thanks to the team and Malcolm.
11. 06. 2016 08:41 CET 10 flash info (20 - Neuville Thierry / Gilsoul Nicolas): It was quite slippery. There was a lot of dust in the car and that distracted me - we went wide on one junction and that cost me a second or two.
11. 06. 2016 08:36 CET 10 flash info (12 - Tänak Ott / Mõlder Raigo): I'm quite pleased. I lost a lot in the end because tyres were getting soft and moving around a lot. Happy with my driving.
11. 06. 2016 08:35 CET 10 flash info (2 - Latvala Jari-Matti / Anttila Miikka): A clean run but in a couple of places I was too cautious in the rocks - hesitating. But the car is right now, a change of gearbox last night and the front diff is working well.
11. 06. 2016 08:34 CET 10 flash info (4 - Sordo Dani / Martí Marc): I have a little more confidence. It wasn't a great stage though, I lost a little in some corners, but I'm a little bit better than yesterday.
11. 06. 2016 08:29 CET 10 flash info (5 - Østberg Mads / Fløene Ola): Not bad. Quite a tricky stage. On the soft tyres the car is moving a lot but I felt the car was working well.
11. 06. 2016 08:29 CET 10 flash info (9 - Mikkelsen Andreas / Jæger Anders): I saw Seb's lines and just tried to stay in them. I've not driven this stage too well in the past so I'm happy enough.
11. 06. 2016 08:28 CET 10 flash info (1 - Ogier Sébastien / Ingrassia Julien): Really, really loose. More than yesterday. Not a bad stage but not a big surprise to see the time.
11. 06. 2016 08:10 CET 10 retired (90 - Catania Davide / Salis Fabio): health problems before leg 2
11. 06. 2016 08:09 CET 10 retired (87 - Covi Carlo / Angi Simone): retired before leg 2
10. 06. 2016 20:00 CET 9 retired (87 - Covi Carlo / Angi Simone): retired in SS 9
10. 06. 2016 19:01 CET 9 flash info (45 - Maurin Julien / Ural Olivier): The puncture has made this a very disappointing day.
10. 06. 2016 18:56 CET 9 flash info (44 - Scandola Umberto / D'Amore Guido): We are very, very happy. This position is a surprise for us. The car, the feeling and the tyres - all good.
10. 06. 2016 18:52 CET 9 flash info (47 - Kruuda Karl / Järveoja Martin): I'd say I'm satisfied but not satisfied by today. We got a puncture on the previous stage and had to stop and change it. That ruined our strategy for this stage.
10. 06. 2016 18:46 CET 9 flash info (35 - Lappi Esapekka / Ferm Janne): We stick to the plan we made before the rally. An ok day, not perfect. Reasonable. Tomorrow we need to be even more eyes open than today.
10. 06. 2016 18:46 CET 9 flash info (41 - Aasen Marius / Engan Veronica): The feeling is very good but we lost some time in the previous stage with a spin.
10. 06. 2016 18:45 CET 9 flash info (34 - Suninen Teemu / Markkula Mikko): Today has been good. Luckily we found good speed after the puncture, which was my mistake. Tomorrow let's see. I think we have enough pace to fight for the win.
10. 06. 2016 18:38 CET 9 flash info (32 - Kremer Armin / Winklhofer Pirmin): Today has been much better in the afternoon, except for a spin in the first stage. We have made a lot of changes in a positive direction.
10. 06. 2016 18:35 CET 9 flash info (42 - Fuchs Nicolás / Mussano Fernando): A spin in this stage on the asphalt section. I had to stop and turn around. I lost maybe 15sec.
10. 06. 2016 18:35 CET 9 (42 - Fuchs Nicolás / Mussano Fernando): spun
10. 06. 2016 18:34 CET 9 flash info (10 - Abbring Kevin / Marshall Sebastian): We managed to find some traction in this last one. The rhythm was quite good. I'm looking forward to tomorrow.
10. 06. 2016 18:34 CET 9 flash info (37 - Bertelli Lorenzo / Scattolin Simone): It's not been a very good day. Two punctures; one my fault, one I don't know. Still a long way to go.
10. 06. 2016 18:25 CET 9 flash info (16 - Solberg Henning / Minor Ilka): The car is ok now. I drive as fast as I can.
10. 06. 2016 18:21 CET 9 flash info (21 - Prokop Martin / Tománek Jan): A couple of good stages, but that's about all. Tomorrow is a new day. We'll change the setup tonight.
10. 06. 2016 18:18 CET 9 flash info (6 - Camilli Eric / Veillas Benjamin): A good afternoon. We tried to push here but I made a mistake and spun which cost us around 15 seconds.
10. 06. 2016 18:18 CET 9 flash info (20 - Neuville Thierry / Gilsoul Nicolas): I think everybody is happy to see us back in the front. It increases our confidence. Tomorrow I hope to continue in the same rhythm and I hope it will be an interesting fight. We have had a lost of issues this year and the end of last year - it's well deserved.
10. 06. 2016 18:18 CET 9 (6 - Camilli Eric / Veillas Benjamin): spun
10. 06. 2016 18:17 CET 9 flash info (12 - Tänak Ott / Mõlder Raigo): This stage I was in road mode. The rear right has gone. All we can do is drive through - and that's all. Like a fast recce.
10. 06. 2016 18:17 CET 9 flash info (2 - Latvala Jari-Matti / Anttila Miikka): It's the front diff again. I can't get out of the corners quickly enough. It's been like this all day and it's getting worse. I cannot attack and the tyres are wearing. We have work to do.
10. 06. 2016 18:06 CET 9 flash info (4 - Sordo Dani / Martí Marc): Not a bad day but once you are off the line this is a very difficult rally. We need to do some modifications tonight to try and make the rear of our car more stable.
10. 06. 2016 18:01 CET 9 flash info (5 - Østberg Mads / Fløene Ola): It doesn't look like it paid off. I've been struggling to keep the rear in the line. Ok, we are here but maybe it was unnecessary. Otherwise the car is working perfectly. I'm really happy about that.
10. 06. 2016 18:00 CET 9 flash info (9 - Mikkelsen Andreas / Jæger Anders): It's been a lot of work today. We haven't really got the loops we wanted - either of them. Early to bed tonight and let's get ready for tomorrow.
10. 06. 2016 18:00 CET 9 flash info (1 - Ogier Sébastien / Ingrassia Julien): I did the maximum I could. I've said before that my focus is to fight with the guys I have a chance to fight with - those near me in the start order like Mads and Andreas. There's not such a gap to them so not too bad.
10. 06. 2016 16:59 CET 9 Start of stage is delayed for 12 minutes.
10. 06. 2016 18:47 CET 8 (47 - Kruuda Karl / Järveoja Martin): puncture
10. 06. 2016 18:46 CET 8 (41 - Aasen Marius / Engan Veronica): spun
10. 06. 2016 17:52 CET 8 flash info (10 - Abbring Kevin / Marshall Sebastian): Better than the morning. I was really careful in the previous one and kept the ride-height high in here. Struggling for traction, like everybody I'm sure.
10. 06. 2016 17:51 CET 8 flash info (37 - Bertelli Lorenzo / Scattolin Simone): I had a puncture. Stupid mistake.
10. 06. 2016 17:51 CET 8 flash info (16 - Solberg Henning / Minor Ilka): I am flat out. I cannot go any faster.
10. 06. 2016 17:51 CET 8 flash info (21 - Prokop Martin / Tománek Jan): Some noise from the rear. I don't know what it is but it is disturbing me a lot. The feeling is ok but the noise is horrible.
10. 06. 2016 17:50 CET 8 (37 - Bertelli Lorenzo / Scattolin Simone): puncture
10. 06. 2016 17:50 CET 8 flash info (6 - Camilli Eric / Veillas Benjamin): We tried to do a good time but it is not really good. It felt like we were driving this stage for the first time. We couldn't do more but we know where we can gain time next time.
10. 06. 2016 17:38 CET 8 flash info (20 - Neuville Thierry / Gilsoul Nicolas): It's going well. The car was sliding a bit on this stage, so I didn't feel too comfortable, but a good run in the clean lines. Out of those it is difficult.
10. 06. 2016 17:38 CET 8 flash info (12 - Tänak Ott / Mõlder Raigo): These are the only tyres I have for the next stage. Ok, slicks it is then.
10. 06. 2016 17:38 CET 8 flash info (2 - Latvala Jari-Matti / Anttila Miikka): I can't got at the speed that Thierry is doing. There's something strange with the turning - it's not ideal. There's something with the front diff and I'm not happy with it. I'm getting understeer, especially on the throttle, it's not biting.
10. 06. 2016 17:38 CET 8 (12 - Tänak Ott / Mõlder Raigo): puncture
10. 06. 2016 17:25 CET 8 flash info (4 - Sordo Dani / Martí Marc): I tried to be in the rhythm but it is very difficult driving out of the line. I was braking too early. I hoped for a better time.
10. 06. 2016 17:22 CET 8 flash info (5 - Østberg Mads / Fløene Ola): Quite a good stage but I'm struggling with the balance of the car. In hindsight maybe just one spare tyre would have been a better choice.
10. 06. 2016 17:21 CET 8 flash info (9 - Mikkelsen Andreas / Jæger Anders): A clean stage but maybe I lost a little near the end. Maybe a bit too careful, I don't know.
10. 06. 2016 17:17 CET 8 flash info (1 - Ogier Sébastien / Ingrassia Julien): That shows how different the road surface is now. It's much more abrasive, much better than this morning.
10. 06. 2016 16:59 CET 8 Start of stage is delayed for 12 minutes.
10. 06. 2016 18:44 CET 7 flash info (34 - Suninen Teemu / Markkula Mikko): I hit a rock and punctured a tyre.
10. 06. 2016 18:38 CET 7 (34 - Suninen Teemu / Markkula Mikko): puncture
10. 06. 2016 17:05 CET 7 Stage was cancelled, because st.no.81 is blocking the road. Other crews will obtain notional time.
10. 06. 2016 17:01 CET 7 Stage is stopped.
10. 06. 2016 17:00 CET 7 retired (81 - Della Casa Federico / Pozzi Domenico): accident in SS 7
10. 06. 2016 16:35 CET 7 (37 - Bertelli Lorenzo / Scattolin Simone): spun
10. 06. 2016 16:32 CET 7 flash info (16 - Solberg Henning / Minor Ilka): The throttle is still not working properly.
10. 06. 2016 16:32 CET 7 flash info (21 - Prokop Martin / Tománek Jan): A really bad stage for me. The car was setup too soft for these conditions.
10. 06. 2016 16:32 CET 7 flash info (6 - Camilli Eric / Veillas Benjamin): Now the car is ok. We have fixed the earlier problem. We pushed but its not possible to do more.
10. 06. 2016 16:26 CET 7 flash info (20 - Neuville Thierry / Gilsoul Nicolas): Jari-Matti did well but I pushed hard and finally the time is nice. The car is working okay in these conditions. When the ruts are already there I can push the rear into them.
10. 06. 2016 16:26 CET 7 flash info (12 - Tänak Ott / Mõlder Raigo): So grippy now. Nice to drive but still I think I went too quickly. I need to be very careful.
10. 06. 2016 16:26 CET 7 flash info (2 - Latvala Jari-Matti / Anttila Miikka): A hard, technical stage. Lots of dust in the car - it came in through the roof vent.
10. 06. 2016 16:25 CET 7 flash info (4 - Sordo Dani / Martí Marc): I saw people at the end of the stage, just near the flying finish, but I didn't see Hayden.
10. 06. 2016 16:25 CET 7 retired (3 - Paddon Hayden / Kennard John): accident in SS 7
10. 06. 2016 16:15 CET 7 flash info (5 - Østberg Mads / Fløene Ola): We're losing a little by carrying an extra wheel but hopefully we'll make that up later with a fresh tyre.
10. 06. 2016 16:15 CET 7 flash info (9 - Mikkelsen Andreas / Jæger Anders): These stages are much better. Like I said earlier - it's a different rally now.
10. 06. 2016 16:15 CET 7 flash info (1 - Ogier Sébastien / Ingrassia Julien): It's very slow in this stage, and there's not a lot of air in the car. So far I'm happy with my tyre choice. I try to make the best of it.
10. 06. 2016 15:47 CET 6 flash info (10 - Abbring Kevin / Marshall Sebastian): A really enjoyable stage. Finally the car is accelerating and braking properly. Now we have to find a good rhythm this afternoon so we are ready for tomorrow morning.
10. 06. 2016 15:47 CET 6 flash info (37 - Bertelli Lorenzo / Scattolin Simone): The car is fixed and I'm feeling better than I did this morning.
10. 06. 2016 15:43 CET 6 flash info (16 - Solberg Henning / Minor Ilka): The throttle is sticking. I had to turn the engine off to stop it. It seems better now. We lost a lot though. Not funny.
10. 06. 2016 15:43 CET 6 flash info (21 - Prokop Martin / Tománek Jan): I don't like this stage. I don't like the narrow sections. Not the best feeling this weekend. Trying to keep positive and enjoy it.
10. 06. 2016 15:42 CET 6 flash info (6 - Camilli Eric / Veillas Benjamin): Not very good. Something is wrong with the car. When I am on the throttle the car pulls to the left. We had a spin.
10. 06. 2016 15:38 CET 6 flash info (20 - Neuville Thierry / Gilsoul Nicolas): I didn't feel really comfortable on stage. It was difficult for me. I took it a bit steady.
10. 06. 2016 15:35 CET 6 flash info (12 - Tänak Ott / Mõlder Raigo): It was alright. This is all about trying to survive.
10. 06. 2016 15:33 CET 6 flash info (2 - Latvala Jari-Matti / Anttila Miikka): A good run for us. The car feels good.
10. 06. 2016 15:33 CET 6 flash info (4 - Sordo Dani / Martí Marc): I'm lacking confidence in the fast, narrow places. Really bad pacenotes in this stage.
10. 06. 2016 15:30 CET 6 flash info (3 - Paddon Hayden / Kennard John): Good. The grip is a lot better this afternoon. My driving feels a lot smoother and under control. A clean drive is the objective today.
10. 06. 2016 15:26 CET 6 flash info (5 - Østberg Mads / Fløene Ola): Pretty much like this morning only cleaner. I'm carrying two spares and that does affect the balance of the car.
10. 06. 2016 15:23 CET 6 flash info (9 - Mikkelsen Andreas / Jæger Anders): That is an awful stage - so narrow and fast - but a clean run. Compared to earlier these are completely different conditions. It's a new rally for us at the front.
10. 06. 2016 15:22 CET 6 flash info (1 - Ogier Sébastien / Ingrassia Julien): Much better grip. This loop will be much better for me. A long way to go so no plans yet - just drive and let's see.
10. 06. 2016 13:21 CET 5 retired (82 - Maarend Mait / Kapp Mihkel): retired in SS 5
10. 06. 2016 13:19 CET 5 flash info (40 - Gilbert Quentin / Jamoul Renaud): We hit something in the second stage on a right-hand corner - a rock I think. I had to change the steering arm in the stage. Since then we have no power steering. I hope for a better afternoon.
10. 06. 2016 13:18 CET 5 flash info (48 - Turán Frigyes / Zsiros Gábor): We struggled in the last couple of stages with the pop-off valve. No turbo. Apart from that I'm happy. I hope for a problem-free loop in the afternoon.
10. 06. 2016 13:17 CET 5 retired (36 - Giordano Quentin / Salva Thierry): broken wheel in SS 5
10. 06. 2016 13:16 CET 5 flash info (45 - Maurin Julien / Ural Olivier): I think he has hit a rock and broken a wheel. For us a good feeling this morning. I tried not to hit anything and here we are in the top five with no risks and no punctures.
10. 06. 2016 13:01 CET 5 flash info (43 - Kopecký Jan / Dresler Pavel): I don't know where it happened. A slow puncture to start I think then we drove for 6km like this.
10. 06. 2016 13:01 CET 5 (44 - Scandola Umberto / D'Amore Guido): spun
10. 06. 2016 13:00 CET 5 (43 - Kopecký Jan / Dresler Pavel): puncture
10. 06. 2016 12:55 CET 5 flash info (47 - Kruuda Karl / Järveoja Martin): Pure joy to drive the car here. We are building the feeling.
10. 06. 2016 12:54 CET 5 flash info (35 - Lappi Esapekka / Ferm Janne): No issues at all and no mistakes. That's the strategy for today I think.
10. 06. 2016 12:49 CET 5 flash info (41 - Aasen Marius / Engan Veronica): It's been really good. Some tricky stages, and I've been careful in places, but ok so far.
10. 06. 2016 12:49 CET 5 flash info (34 - Suninen Teemu / Markkula Mikko): Quite ok. Some things to look at in service but no problem.
10. 06. 2016 12:45 CET 5 flash info (32 - Kremer Armin / Winklhofer Pirmin): Really hard. No feeling for the car and the tyres yet.
10. 06. 2016 12:42 CET 5 flash info (42 - Fuchs Nicolás / Mussano Fernando): A little crash in the second stage today but a good morning.
10. 06. 2016 12:38 CET 5 flash info (10 - Abbring Kevin / Marshall Sebastian): The car has more than 300hp through the front wheels but like it feels worse than an R2 car. We can't get any rhythm like this.
10. 06. 2016 12:38 CET 5 flash info (37 - Bertelli Lorenzo / Scattolin Simone): I'm disappointed because we were going well.
10. 06. 2016 12:37 CET 5 flash info (16 - Solberg Henning / Minor Ilka): Very tough and slippery but whenever I have four tyres on the car and I can change gears I go flat out.
10. 06. 2016 12:37 CET 5 flash info (21 - Prokop Martin / Tománek Jan): I'm still struggling with the motivation after the Stewards' penalty. It's hard to find the reason to push. Really difficult.
10. 06. 2016 12:25 CET 5 flash info (6 - Camilli Eric / Veillas Benjamin): The most important thing is to compete the race without retirement. It's a little bit hard to have that problem on only the second stage. This time it's not our rally.
10. 06. 2016 12:24 CET 5 flash info (20 - Neuville Thierry / Gilsoul Nicolas): Of course there is some road cleaning, which we try to turn to our advantage. Apart from the spin I think we can be pleased with the morning loop.
10. 06. 2016 12:22 CET 5 flash info (12 - Tänak Ott / Mõlder Raigo): Tyres are well used, that's for sure. This is a hard rally for the tyres and we have work to do.
10. 06. 2016 12:22 CET 5 flash info (2 - Latvala Jari-Matti / Anttila Miikka): I'm happy with the morning but it hasn't been easy. We were thinking all time about whether or not we had the right tyres. In the end I think it was the perfect choice.
10. 06. 2016 12:21 CET 5 flash info (4 - Sordo Dani / Martí Marc): Very difficult to drive. Understeer and oversteer. Incredible. We almost went off in the first corner.
10. 06. 2016 12:21 CET 5 flash info (3 - Paddon Hayden / Kennard John): The car's not perfect, we found the bolts were bent when we made the repairs.
10. 06. 2016 12:21 CET 5 flash info (5 - Østberg Mads / Fløene Ola): I tried to manage my tyres this morning and I'm pretty happy.
10. 06. 2016 12:21 CET 5 flash info (9 - Mikkelsen Andreas / Jæger Anders): The tyre wear was more than I expected and I didn't have time to change the tyres as I had planned to before the previous stage. Here I had to use one tyre that was completely gone. Still, we are here. That's the main thing.
10. 06. 2016 12:20 CET 5 flash info (1 - Ogier Sébastien / Ingrassia Julien): We expected to be on the limit like this. We had to try something. Overall I'm happy with the loop.
10. 06. 2016 10:22 CET 5 Start of stage will be delayed by 4 minutes.
10. 06. 2016 13:01 CET 4 retired (88 - Marrone Francesco / Fresu Francesco): retired in SS 4
10. 06. 2016 12:52 CET 4 retired (63 - Brazzoli Enrico / Barone Maurizio): technical problem in SS 4
10. 06. 2016 12:00 CET 4 flash info (10 - Abbring Kevin / Marshall Sebastian): We broke a prop-shaft before the first stage today. Only front wheel drive and only brakes at the rear. We will get it fixed at service. Very unlucky.
10. 06. 2016 11:56 CET 4 flash info (37 - Bertelli Lorenzo / Scattolin Simone): The rear diff failed at the end the previous stage. And a damper too. Then we went off in here and got a puncture.
10. 06. 2016 11:56 CET 4 (37 - Bertelli Lorenzo / Scattolin Simone): puncture
10. 06. 2016 11:50 CET 4 flash info (16 - Solberg Henning / Minor Ilka): Not a good stage. I stopped twice in hairpins. My fault.
10. 06. 2016 11:50 CET 4 flash info (21 - Prokop Martin / Tománek Jan): Now we have a problem with the front. Understeering. The feeling is changing. Also I'm not fully concentrated after the problem with the Stewards earlier.
10. 06. 2016 11:49 CET 4 flash info (6 - Camilli Eric / Veillas Benjamin): We still have the same broken rear diff. It's like I have left wheel drive only. Not possible for me to fix. It's disappointing.
10. 06. 2016 11:41 CET 4 flash info (20 - Neuville Thierry / Gilsoul Nicolas): I had a good stage but I spun near the finish and lost six or seven seconds.
10. 06. 2016 11:40 CET 4 flash info (12 - Tänak Ott / Mõlder Raigo): Maximum attack.
10. 06. 2016 11:40 CET 4 flash info (2 - Latvala Jari-Matti / Anttila Miikka): A good time - better than I expected. A few mistakes. Overall I'm feeling positive.
10. 06. 2016 11:39 CET 4 flash info (4 - Sordo Dani / Martí Marc): Not happy. Very slippery.
10. 06. 2016 11:39 CET 4 flash info (3 - Paddon Hayden / Kennard John): We spun near the start and got stuck in a cloud of dust. When we were turning the car around we hit a wall and broke a rear toe-arm.
10. 06. 2016 11:39 CET 4 flash info (5 - Østberg Mads / Fløene Ola): Not so bad. A beautiful stage. I enjoyed it. That's the plan. I'm off to change them now.
10. 06. 2016 11:38 CET 4 flash info (9 - Mikkelsen Andreas / Jæger Anders): We've seen more tyre wear than I expected so I was cautious near the start.
10. 06. 2016 11:38 CET 4 (3 - Paddon Hayden / Kennard John): spun
10. 06. 2016 11:38 CET 4 flash info (1 - Ogier Sébastien / Ingrassia Julien): Still a bit the same. I'm happy with my drive, with the job so far, but let's see how we do after the whole loop.
10. 06. 2016 11:28 CET 4 flash info (1 - Ogier Sébastien / Ingrassia Julien): Still a bit the same. I'm happy with my drive, with the job so far, but let's see how we do after the whole loop.
10. 06. 2016 10:22 CET 4 Start of stage will be delayed by 4 minutes.
10. 06. 2016 13:18 CET 3 flash info (40 - Gilbert Quentin / Jamoul Renaud): We hit something in the second stage on a right-hand corner - a rock I think. I had to change the steering arm in the stage.
10. 06. 2016 12:51 CET 3 retired (39 - Suárez José António / Carrera Cándido): retired after SS 3
10. 06. 2016 12:42 CET 3 (42 - Fuchs Nicolás / Mussano Fernando): was out of road
10. 06. 2016 12:23 CET 3 retired (91 - Leoni Alessandro / Demontis Marco): retired in SS 3
10. 06. 2016 12:22 CET 3 retired (49 - Bestard Augusto / Mendonca Fernando): retired in SS 3
10. 06. 2016 11:15 CET 3 (40 - Gilbert Quentin / Jamoul Renaud): stopped in stage, continue
10. 06. 2016 10:58 CET 3 (10 - Abbring Kevin / Marshall Sebastian): problems with propshaft
10. 06. 2016 10:53 CET 3 flash info (21 - Prokop Martin / Tománek Jan): The stage conditions are ok but the feeling with the car is strange. The balance isn't right. Maybe it's the anti-roll bar. I'll have to check.
10. 06. 2016 10:50 CET 3 flash info (6 - Camilli Eric / Veillas Benjamin): I think the rear diff broke somewhere near the start. In the first stage I already felt something strange with the front right. I thought it was a tyre. Now I'm not sure. I hope to get through the next stages.
10. 06. 2016 10:49 CET 3 flash info (20 - Neuville Thierry / Gilsoul Nicolas): I don't know how it's possible for him to do these times. It's impossible to go that fast, they must have a lot of traction. I expected to take more time.
10. 06. 2016 10:42 CET 3 flash info (12 - Tänak Ott / Mõlder Raigo): Getting really soft, too hot I think. It's difficult to drive when it's like this. I did my best.
10. 06. 2016 10:42 CET 3 flash info (2 - Latvala Jari-Matti / Anttila Miikka): It's difficult to know what the best tyre option is. The balance in the car wasn't great but over the whole loop I think we have a good plan.
10. 06. 2016 10:41 CET 3 flash info (4 - Sordo Dani / Martí Marc): Very, very slippery everywhere. We do this one with these tyres, the next should be better.
10. 06. 2016 10:41 CET 3 flash info (3 - Paddon Hayden / Kennard John): No braking grip on this stage but for whole loop it will be the best strategy.
10. 06. 2016 10:40 CET 3 flash info (5 - Østberg Mads / Fløene Ola): I'm happy with the tyre choice but it was confusing to fit the right ones before this stage.
10. 06. 2016 10:40 CET 3 flash info (9 - Mikkelsen Andreas / Jæger Anders): We had to try something from our position at the front. Here we will lose a lot of time as the road cleans.
10. 06. 2016 10:40 CET 3 flash info (1 - Ogier Sébastien / Ingrassia Julien): They're quite on the limit but with so much loose gravel the softs are all I can do here.
10. 06. 2016 10:22 CET 3 Start of stage was delayed by 4 minutes.
10. 06. 2016 11:07 CET 2 Stage cancelled after Lappi due to fall of spectator. Other crews beginning with Karl Kruuda will obtain notional time.
10. 06. 2016 11:02 CET 2 retired (30 - Al Rajhi Yazeed / Orr Michael): accident in SS 2
10. 06. 2016 11:01 CET 2 retired (18 - Gorban Valeriy / Korsia Volodymyr): accident in SS 2
10. 06. 2016 10:54 CET 2 (10 - Abbring Kevin / Marshall Sebastian): broken propshaft
10. 06. 2016 10:39 CET 2 (10 - Abbring Kevin / Marshall Sebastian): technical problems, only 2WD
10. 06. 2016 10:07 CET 2 (30 - Al Rajhi Yazeed / Orr Michael): rolled
10. 06. 2016 10:06 CET 2 (18 - Gorban Valeriy / Korsia Volodymyr): rolled
10. 06. 2016 10:06 CET 2 flash info (37 - Bertelli Lorenzo / Scattolin Simone): Very tricky, very fast and narrow. The time is not so bad.
10. 06. 2016 09:59 CET 2 flash info (16 - Solberg Henning / Minor Ilka): I pushed my best - as hard as I could.
10. 06. 2016 09:59 CET 2 flash info (6 - Camilli Eric / Veillas Benjamin): I drove not very well. It was very narrow and fast. Don't worry - I'm confident.
10. 06. 2016 09:59 CET 2 flash info (20 - Neuville Thierry / Gilsoul Nicolas): The rear was moving far too much with the soft tyre at the rear and hards at the front. That knocked my confidence. I decided to take it carefully.
10. 06. 2016 09:58 CET 2 flash info (12 - Tänak Ott / Mõlder Raigo): There was a stupid edge in the hairpin near the start. We spun and took a long time to get turned around. There's a long way to go.
10. 06. 2016 09:58 CET 2 flash info (2 - Latvala Jari-Matti / Anttila Miikka): A good start. Maybe a bit too aggressive in the opening section but I have to be happy with this stage.
10. 06. 2016 09:58 CET 2 flash info (4 - Sordo Dani / Martí Marc): Really difficult. Narrow and fast. The time is not so good.
10. 06. 2016 09:49 CET 2 (12 - Tänak Ott / Mõlder Raigo): spun
10. 06. 2016 09:49 CET 2 flash info (3 - Paddon Hayden / Kennard John): Quite slippery. I really struggled for a rhythm. Not the tidiest stage I've driven - the guys behind will be quicker.
10. 06. 2016 09:44 CET 2 flash info (5 - Østberg Mads / Fløene Ola): Very slippery but exactly what we expected.
10. 06. 2016 09:44 CET 2 flash info (9 - Mikkelsen Andreas / Jæger Anders): A nice stage. Rally fast. A proper wake up call. I was surprised by now slippery it was, but that's how it is. Now I have to build a good rhythm.
10. 06. 2016 09:44 CET 2 flash info (1 - Ogier Sébastien / Ingrassia Julien): Difficult, very slippery. No surprises.
09. 06. 2016 20:05 CET 1 flash info (3 - Paddon Hayden / Kennard John): This is an unusual super special, pretty wide, but my driving felt better - tidier than I have done before.
09. 06. 2016 20:05 CET 1 flash info (1 - Ogier Sébastien / Ingrassia Julien): A great start. It's always good to be the fastest, especially here with such a lot of spectators and a great atmosphere.
09. 06. 2016 19:53 CET 1 flash info (5 - Østberg Mads / Fløene Ola): It was ok, we're through it, that's the main thing.
09. 06. 2016 19:53 CET 1 flash info (9 - Mikkelsen Andreas / Jæger Anders): This is a complex rally, slow and fast. It will be difficult.
09. 06. 2016 19:53 CET 1 flash info (4 - Sordo Dani / Martí Marc): This is a complex rally, slow and fast. It will be difficult.
09. 06. 2016 19:52 CET 1 flash info (2 - Latvala Jari-Matti / Anttila Miikka): The feeling is good - I feel relaxed and motivated.
09. 06. 2016 19:52 CET 1 flash info (20 - Neuville Thierry / Gilsoul Nicolas): The rally will be long. We have to get a decent start tomorrow and try to push.
09. 06. 2016 19:52 CET 1 flash info (12 - Tänak Ott / Mõlder Raigo): A really great atmosphere here. I enjoyed it and it's a good way to start the rally.
09. 06. 2016 19:51 CET 1 flash info (21 - Prokop Martin / Tománek Jan): Thanks to the Stewards for the five-minute penalty. I'm really angry about this. I have completely lost my motivation.
09. 06. 2016 19:51 CET 1 flash info (16 - Solberg Henning / Minor Ilka): Quite fun, very slippery,
09. 06. 2016 19:51 CET 1 flash info (37 - Bertelli Lorenzo / Scattolin Simone): I went wide after the watersplash but good fun for the spectators. I want to push my pace up this weekend.
09. 06. 2016 19:50 CET 1 flash info (10 - Abbring Kevin / Marshall Sebastian): Normally you're not supposed to overtake on a stage like this! I'm looking forward to pushing more tomorrow.
09. 06. 2016 19:50 CET 1 flash info (18 - Gorban Valeriy / Korsia Volodymyr): Something broken, maybe a diff or driveshaft.
09. 06. 2016 19:50 CET 1 (18 - Gorban Valeriy / Korsia Volodymyr): spun
09. 06. 2016 19:24 CET 1 flash info (30 - Al Rajhi Yazeed / Orr Michael): We made two mistakes but that's normal with the first super special. We feel comfortable.
09. 06. 2016 19:15 CET 1 flash info (34 - Suninen Teemu / Markkula Mikko): One stage, it's nothing. We're here to learn more about this rally.
09. 06. 2016 19:15 CET 1 flash info (35 - Lappi Esapekka / Ferm Janne): Survival is the key.
09. 06. 2016 19:15 CET 1 flash info (42 - Fuchs Nicolás / Mussano Fernando): A very nice stage for me. Last year I didn't like it. I have good confidence.
09. 06. 2016 19:14 CET 1 flash info (32 - Kremer Armin / Winklhofer Pirmin): We had a bad start - a stall for a couple for seconds - but for this day that's ok. The real rally starts tomorrow.
09. 06. 2016 19:14 CET 1 flash info (41 - Aasen Marius / Engan Veronica): A really good start. Really fun too.
09. 06. 2016 19:14 CET 1 flash info (40 - Gilbert Quentin / Jamoul Renaud): Everything good. The car feels very well. A nice stage, a good way to start the weekend.
09. 06. 2016 19:14 CET 1 flash info (39 - Suárez José António / Carrera Cándido): The stage is just for fun. Everything is ok.
09. 06. 2016 19:13 CET 1 flash info (43 - Kopecký Jan / Dresler Pavel): This rally will be very tricky. We try to do our best and get on the podium.
09. 06. 2016 19:13 CET 1 flash info (47 - Kruuda Karl / Järveoja Martin): It felt awesome. No other words. Great to be back.
