INFORMATION ABOUT SS 18
flash info (31 - Tidemand Pontus / Andersson Jonas): No drama. With just one spare tyre I'm being careful to avoid punctures. The fight with Veiby is over now, we just need to get through. If we can manage to take second place here it would be good for the championship.
flash info (34 - Veiby Ole Christian / Skjærmoen Stig Rune): For sure a good day. A shame that me and Pontus both got punctures on the previous stage. On this one it's just about driving around every stone and avoiding any punctures. It's been a good fight, and to be beating Pontus is something I am very proud of.
flash info (5 - Neuville Thierry / Gilsoul Nicolas): I got a lot of rain in the last 5km and before that the asphalt section was wet. I struggled like hell. I pushed very hard but the rain was unnecessary and I was very unlucky. Can I hold Tanak off tomorrow? We will see.
flash info (2 - Tänak Ott / Järveoja Martin): It was difficult on the big jump. I tired to be very very clean with no mistakes. That's the best I can do. Tomorrow anything is possible.
flash info (1 - Ogier Sébastien / Ingrassia Julien): There is some kind of engine thing we are working on. It is not stable, let's say, but it's working more often than it's not.
flash info (4 - Paddon Hayden / Marshall Sebastian): I took it a bit easy here - especially at the start. A very enjoyable day. I'm happy with what we've done. The podium is more than we expected. Sorry for Jari-Matti but now we will do everything we can to protect the position.
flash info (6 - Sordo Dani / Martí Marc): It happened near the end, I was lucky. A big rock in the line.
(6 - Sordo Dani / Martí Marc): puncture
flash info (15 - Suninen Teemu / Markkula Mikko): We are not fast in the ruts. I need to think about how I can be faster in them tomorrow.
flash info (11 - Hänninen Juho / Lindström Kaj): Nothing special. In the deep ruts it's really difficult to keep the same speed. We lose quite a lot of energy there.
flash info (9 - Lefebvre Stéphane / Moreau Gabin): Something is not working well with the rear diff. I do not take big risks.
flash info (14 - Østberg Mads / Fløene Ola): A bit of a distraction, but I think it's just noisy and nothing serious.
flash info (3 - Evans Elfyn / Barritt Daniel): Still not ideal for us in here - too sandy. It is what it is.
flash info (7 - Mikkelsen Andreas / Jæger Anders): Generally the feeling is getting better and better, but I have destroyed my front splitter here so it's more difficult to drive.
flash info (8 - Breen Craig / Martin Scott): It's hard to get the confidence back again. I'm trying to build it stage-by-stage but it's not easy opening the road. Still a lot of room for improvement. I don't feel I'm at 50 per cent of what I can do.
Start will be delayed for 11 minutes.
