| INFORMATION ABOUT SS 1 | |
(96 - Bächle Christian / Brack Isabelle):
retired after SS 1 | |
(5 - Neuville Thierry / Gilsoul Nicolas):
I had no good feeling in the stage after what I saw with Meeke. I took it quite steady. It's my first time starting a rally leading the championship. I thought we did quite well. | |
|
(1 - Ogier Sébastien / Ingrassia Julien):
The real fight starts tomorrow but tonight we've seen that it can be tricky. You can't win the rally tonight but you can lose it. | |
|
(2 - Tänak Ott / Järveoja Martin):
If I have a good feeling in the car I will enjoy it and I'm sure the times will come. I expect some very difficult conditions this weekend. Let's see. | |
|
(10 - Latvala Jari-Matti / Anttila Miikka):
What happened to Kris was really unfortunate. This sort of city stage is good, but why did they use the concrete barriers and not plastic? That's not the way to do it. For me not such a bad stage. | |
|
(6 - Sordo Dani / Martí Marc):
I know what I can touch. | |
| (6 - Sordo Dani / Martí Marc): touched concrete barrier, damaged rim | |
|
(3 - Evans Elfyn / Barritt Daniel):
We went as hard as we could. We have a new hard tyre here, which is unknown territory. Lets see what we can do with it. | |
|
(8 - Breen Craig / Martin Scott):
I'm gutted for Paul and Kris. It's so easy to make a mistake in here. I touched a barrier on the first corner. It's going to be a long weekend. We'll go a hard as we can. | |
|
(4 - Paddon Hayden / Marshall Sebastian):
The hairpins are very tight. I touched a bale on the inside but no worries. It's tricky in these wider cars. | |
|
(11 - Hänninen Juho / Lindström Kaj):
Let's see where our times are tomorrow. | |
|
(12 - Lappi Esapekka / Ferm Janne):
Now way. No chance. I need more experience on tarmac and of this car. I'm just not confident enough to push. I need to try to be clever. | |
| Stage is stopped because car no. 7 is blocking the road. | |
|
(7 - Meeke Kris / Nagle Paul):
broken wheel in SS 1 | |
|
(9 - Mikkelsen Andreas / Jæger Anders):
I hope we can have a good result. The car feels really nice on tarmac, really enjoyable. I hope for nicer weather than the rain that is forecast. | |
|
(14 - Kremer Armin / Winklhofer Pirmin):
It feels really great to be back in a WRC car but I have to say my feeling for the car is not so easy. Tomorrow we will start the race. | |
|
(31 - Tidemand Pontus / Andersson Jonas):
I don't think about the title. I just try to stay concentrated. The conditions can be difficult. I'm happy to be here. | |
|
(32 - Suninen Teemu / Markkula Mikko):
A lot of challenges here - quite different from Finland. | |
|
(41 - Griebel Marijan / Kopczyk Stefan):
I'm really happy to be able to open this stage. So many people here. I think my soft tyres were done after one and a half laps. | |
