INFORMATION ABOUT SS 9
flash info (44 - Bonato Yoann / Boulloud Benjamin): My first time in conditions like this. Sometimes the ruts were so deep it felt like I was in a bobsleigh.
flash info (43 - Andolfi Fabio / Fenoli Manuel): I don't have a good set up for these conditions. I'm not satisfied.
flash info (42 - Chuchała Wojciech / Rozwadowski Sebastian): On the stage before we destroyed a bit the front of the car in the ruts and we have no proper engine protection. So here we were very careful - worried we might not get to the finish. All ok though.
flash info (40 - Gilbert Quentin / Jamoul Renaud): I hate this stage. The worst of the stages for me with lots of high-speed ruts. Ok, one more stage to go, I must drive, drive, drive.
flash info (32 - Guerra Benito / Cue Daniel): Alex, my engineer, has given me a good set-up this afternoon and I've enjoyed a lot. So difficult, but I'm having a good day. It looks like P4 tonight. We'll keep pushing tomorrow.
flash info (34 - Veiby Ole Christian / Skjærmoen Stig Rune): A really, really good day for us. One stage to go and hopefully I will lead at the end of day one. I like these stages. An enjoyable day.
flash info (31 - Tidemand Pontus / Andersson Jonas): Quite fun. The car is jumping about sideways. Just flat out. Hard to find the rhythm. A good fight with Ole Christian. I need to find the balance between fighting and safety.
flash info (15 - Suninen Teemu / Markkula Mikko): In the end I missed a junction and needed to reverse. A small mistake in the muddy braking. The afternoon loop has been good. Tomorrow I need to continue our good work without mistakes.
flash info (9 - Lefebvre Stéphane / Moreau Gabin): A difficult day but we didn't do any big mistakes.
flash info (14 - Østberg Mads / Fløene Ola): Not better and not worse than this morning. A better day tomorrow - hopefully.
flash info (7 - Mikkelsen Andreas / Jæger Anders): Very deep ruts. And I noticed a puncture on the start so I was careful in every left-hand corner not to take the tyre off the rim.
flash info (8 - Breen Craig / Martin Scott): This one went with the flow of the rest of them today - terrible. I just want to get back to service now and have a reset. My plan for tomorrow? Do better.
flash info (11 - Hänninen Juho / Lindström Kaj): Not satisfied, we are losing quite a lot. We know what to do tomorrow - today I was too low on the second pass.
flash info (4 - Paddon Hayden / Marshall Sebastian): The conditions are more even this afternoon. I'm looking forward hopefully to some drier weather tomorrow so we can enjoy these stages.
flash info (3 - Evans Elfyn / Barritt Daniel): Not great, obviously. In this stage I don't think I've even been so far off the pace or had such big slides. We know it's just down to what we have available on the day. We have to get through it and wait for our day.
flash info (6 - Sordo Dani / Martí Marc): A little better than this morning. Still slippery but a more natural feeling.
flash info (10 - Latvala Jari-Matti / Anttila Miikka): The afternoon I'm struggling in the ruts. I can't get the car to turn in. I haven't tested this car enough in these conditions.
flash info (2 - Tänak Ott / Järveoja Martin): It's still Friday so I'm not on the limit. Some extreme conditions this afternoon so no need to go all out for the moment. It's still very early, for sure we need to keep close. Tomorrow is a long day with new stages.
flash info (5 - Neuville Thierry / Gilsoul Nicolas): Really, really tricky. We are suffering with our road position. Ok, we gained a bit in the morning but we lose in the afternoon. When I push the car behaves well. I've done a good stage.
flash info (1 - Ogier Sébastien / Ingrassia Julien): Like the whole afternoon I'm on the limit. I pushed as hard as I can. We have to analyse why, but I can't go faster. I was hoping for better today but the conditions in the afternoon didn't help me.
Stage will be delayed for 5 minutes.
