INFORMATION ABOUT SS 22
retired (44 - Kołtun Jarosław / Pleskot Ireneusz): retired in SS 22
retired (42 - Abbring Kevin / Marshall Sebastian): technical problem - suspension in SS 22
flash info (83 - Anderson Jamie / Whittock Ross): Really glad to have got to the finish. I was hoping to be quicker this weekend but experience is everything.
flash info (82 - Pärn Sander / Morgan James): Was hoping to catch the car in front. If he has a clean run I don't think it will be possible. It's been a good weekend getting mileage and improving our feeling in the car.
flash info (62 - Fabre Michel / Vilmot Maxime): It's been a difficult rally for us with many problems. But we have scored points. Now we go to Australia and see what happens.
flash info (61 - Tempestini Simone / Bernacchini Giovanni): This is the best rally, lucky to make it and a tough, tough weekend. We won the Junior title in Spain and WRC3 here. I hope that we'll be in the car again soon.
flash info (64 - Koči Martin / Kostka Lukáš): All good, and we won the Junior section. Led from the first stage, such a great weekend. I'm happy to have shown my pace. We will try to put everything together for next year for WRC2.
flash info (49 - van den Heuvel Jim / Dockx Jouri): Road very rough, must check the front end for a problem. A tough weekend.
flash info (53 - Yates Rhys / Woodburn Tom): It's been tough. We had a tough first day but yesterday and today ran a little more smoothly. It's good to have a look at what the top boys are doing. The plan is to keep building our speed and keep going next year, back in the British Rally Championship.
flash info (52 - Bogie David / Rae Kevin): It's been good, the times have been good and the car has been good. Big thanks for CA1 sport for everything they've done. I've never been in these stages before today so it's good to set some times. You can't beat events like this for time in the seat. I'm looking forward to next year now.
flash info (43 - Turán Frigyes / Zsiros Gábor): Basically we came here to learn the stages and the conditions. We have to learn because it was really tough but we have to work on our speed. We are happy though now. I hope to be back next year.
flash info (54 - Greensmith Gus / Becker Katrin): Plently of lessons from this one. The first day was good and foggy. Yesterday we had to stop because Katrin was just too ill to read the notes. Today we were getting better and better. I was getting really comfortable with the car but then I clouted a rock as I took a long left hand corner too fast and I think I've damaged the right rear which is a bit of a shame. I really like this car.
flash info (50 - Åhlin Fredrik / Roughead Andrew): Very, very disapointed. We wanted to come here and drive a smart rally, we drove smart on friday, we were down on power and were fifth overall but when the turbo failed we were very disappointed. I want to be in WRC2 next year. My manager knows something and I will call in the morninig.
flash info (41 - Suárez José António / Carrera Cándido): We had a tricky rally because it was really hard. We had a few problems but we learn a lot and we now have more experience when it's slippy. We gained so much confidence. I really feel strong after this.
flash info (34 - Fuchs Nicolás / Mussano Fernando): It's a great weekend for us. It's good for next year. It's good to finish. Something was broken in the rear but we're happy.
flash info (46 - Veiby Ole Christian / Skjærmoen Stig Rune): I think we should be really happy with our performance this weekend. Not the easiest rally but I think we managed quite well. On some stages we showed some speed but I don't think you can come here for the first time and expect to be fast. I don't know anything about next year yet.
flash info (38 - Aasen Marius / Engan Veronica): All very difficult as it was different each day but we did a good job once the fog cleared.
flash info (36 - Kopecký Jan / Dresler Pavel): These three guys have been really great and their speed has been excellent. OK so I'm not a young guy but I'm missing experience from this rally.
flash info (35 - Tidemand Pontus / Andersson Jonas): I started to find myself a little bit again and we've had good experience from this event. OK the championship is over but for sure I'll come back strong next year. I was happy with my speed today. That was proper. I think and I hope that I stay with Skoda. Everyone wants to be in a WRC car and you need to be really prepared for it. One day it will come.
flash info (32 - Suninen Teemu / Markkula Mikko): That isn't the result we wanted to have but it's good to have a tough fight. No words... The experience we have compared to others, and competing with the factory Skodas is hard. We have done good times. I want to know something about next year but I'll take a phone call tomorrow morning to see what we can do for 2017.
flash info (33 - Lappi Esapekka / Ferm Janne): I have to thank the team, they have given me the car and repaired it! We did an absolutely perfect job on our first time in Wales - a victory so our title is still alive. I knew that it was not over with our accident but I was not expecting we could win by such a margin. We had an issue on Friday but we were lucky there was no more damage so we carried on pushing.
flash info (16 - Gilbert Quentin / Jamoul Renaud): We do what we have to do. Not the easiest rally to start with a WRC car but we're happy with the first time in this car.
flash info (1 - Ogier Sébastien / Ingrassia Julien): That's fantastic. The main target was to be Manufacturers' championship. I'm not world champion without my team. I just backed off a little on the last three stages of the rally but not before this point. I was really flying this weekend. Ott was really flying with the DMACK tyres this weekend and it was really not easy. He was very consistant with no mistakes so we had to do a perfect rally to stay in front.
flash info (12 - Tänak Ott / Mõlder Raigo): I just want to say thanks to the team for working really hard, it's nice to give them something back and to DMACK tyres - they have been working brilliantly. They've been working really hard and it's been all thanks to them. Our road position was maybe not great but it's good to be pushing. It's really good. I really can't wait until next year now.
flash info (3 - Neuville Thierry / Gilsoul Nicolas): It was a nice weekend for us. The team's done a good job with a good car. It wasn't enough to fight for the win. I had a terrible week last week - a very good friend of mine died in an accident last week so this podium is for him.
flash info (20 - Paddon Hayden / Kennard John): You want to come here and get a good result. We did the best we can, we have a lot to improve on this sort of surface but we've learnt a lot and it's Australia now. Sad to miss out on the podium for the second time in a row but we did our best. We've a good road position for Australia.
flash info (7 - Meeke Kris / Nagle Paul): This year it was impossible for me to do anything. We know our package is not great in conditions like this and with this road position we just can't do anything. I hope to be back next year in a stronger position.
flash info (4 - Sordo Dani / Martí Marc): That was very interesting. A good day but the setup was not there. I hope to do better in Australia. We tried, speed wasn't there but we finished.
flash info (5 - Østberg Mads / Fløene Ola): It was enjoyable anyway. Some nice stages today and I really enjoyed them. I'm happy with the way things have gone this weekend.
flash info (2 - Latvala Jari-Matti / Anttila Miikka): It's been ok, I can't say that I've driven a great performance but we're now at the finish and scoring Manufacturers' points. I changed the car a little bit for today and it's understeering a bit. A little mistake with the setup but you learn and it's done.
flash info (14 - Lefebvre Stéphane / De Turckheim Gilles): It was a difficult weekend for us but now I have good confidence in the car and I am happy. It's a good end to the season. I had a better day today than yesterday.
flash info (6 - Camilli Eric / Veillas Benjamin): I struck a stone on the road, I think something changed on the rear, maybe a puncture. It was a good race for us, everything was going well, we're very, very happy. I'm feeling a lot more confident after completing the rally.
flash info (9 - Mikkelsen Andreas / Jæger Anders): I don't know if it's enough. Some small mistakes and a big one in the last junction. The braking was fine at the beginning but in the last section it was just sliding. I don't know.
flash info (37 - Bertelli Lorenzo / Scattolin Simone): It was much drier than the first pass. It was not so bad, we went too wide on a corner but we were much better so I'm happy. We finished the rally without any problems and so this was better.
