INFORMATION ABOUT SS 12 | |
(40 - Huttunen Jari / Linnaketo Antti): Yeah, it's okay. But other R5 cars are going faster than me. | |
(39 - Nordgren Juuso / Korhonen Mikael): Happy with my car but I need to change my driving for tomorrow. | |
(37 - Arai Hiroki / MacNeall Glenn): Tricky when the car is not accelerating well because of the pop-off valve. Otherwise everything went well. | |
(36 - Gilbert Quentin / Jamoul Renaud): We are happy about our day. I pushed really hard, enjoyed a lot and now I am in second place. The rally is still long but the gap is quite good. We will keep pushing. | |
(32 - Tempestini Simone / Bernacchini Giovanni): A better afternoon. Tomorrow we will change the set-up if it is drier, otherwise we will keep it like this. | |
(8 - Al Qassimi Khalid / Patterson Chris): Every stage today a different set-up - with the diff, throttle, springs - I've forgotten how many changes. We're learning. | |
(15 - Suninen Teemu / Markkula Mikko): Not so good, a few mistakes. I was sliding a lot. I was not on the limits but I lost the rear a few times. | |
(14 - Østberg Mads / Eriksen Torstein): I pushed stupidly hard to get a decent time and it was okay. I've done all I can and I think it is just a faulty rear diff. At least now it feels okay. We are doing our best. | |
(12 - Lappi Esapekka / Ferm Janne): Before the rally I couldn't imagine leading today. It's really something special. It's difficult to understand but we tried to do our best and at the moment it's enough to keep the lead. I hope to continue tomorrow. | |
(7 - Meeke Kris / Nagle Paul): Not so nice with the damaged steering. I just don't feel confident with wheel at the wrong angle in my hands. | |
(11 - Hänninen Juho / Lindström Kaj): We are quite lucky to be here. I took it easy on the jumps because if the top of the damper cracked then we would have a big problem. It's nice to be here. We knew we would lose some time but it's better to be here. | |
(9 - Breen Craig / Martin Scott): We got a couple of changes under the car and it was okay - in the ball park - but every tenth you give away is hard to get back. Overall it hasn't been so bad. | |
(3 - Evans Elfyn / Barritt Daniel): Not too bad. Not a complete disaster but work to do tomorrow. | |
(6 - Sordo Dani / Martí Marc): No problems today just not fast enough. Is it me or the car? I don't know. In here I tried to keep Tanak behind but it was impossible. | |
(10 - Latvala Jari-Matti / Anttila Miikka): Esapekka has been absolutely fantastic today, I take my hat off to him. Tomorrow gets more challenging with the stages, we will be closer together with the start position. That's where we will know where we are - that is the reality. After this stage I know what I can do... | |
(5 - Neuville Thierry / Gilsoul Nicolas): We are pushing hard but the times are not what we want. There's not much we can do but continue. All is positive in terms of the championship. Tomorrow is a huge day. We might try some new damper settings tomorrow but there's not much to do. Top five would be a good result here. |
