10. 05. 2017 20:01
11. 05. 2017 01:01 CET 		18 flash info (5 - Neuville Thierry / Gilsoul Nicolas): Watching that was the worst time in my life. He was quicker than me at the first split, but I got it back in the second.
10. 05. 2017 19:59
11. 05. 2017 00:59 CET 		18 flash info (3 - Evans Elfyn / Barritt Daniel): I feel gutted to lose by such a fine margin. It's hard to take at the minute but I know I can come back stronger. I made a slight mistake here, I hit a bridge halfway through, that was probably the difference. After such a big lead on Friday I need to learn from this.
10. 05. 2017 19:58
11. 05. 2017 00:58 CET 		18 flash info (5 - Neuville Thierry / Gilsoul Nicolas): I gave it everything. I didn't have the best tyres left because I was pushing on the two before. Even if we don't win we have done our best.
10. 05. 2017 19:55
11. 05. 2017 00:55 CET 		18 flash info (2 - Tänak Ott / Järveoja Martin): So far this has been the most tricky rally of my career. I've never managed to finish it without problems. This year I changed my approach and I'm happy with the result.
10. 05. 2017 19:54
11. 05. 2017 00:54 CET 		18 flash info (1 - Ogier Sébastien / Ingrassia Julien): To be honest I'm happy to finish this rally. It's been a hard weekend for us, but we still take some points and that's the positive.
10. 05. 2017 19:53
11. 05. 2017 00:53 CET 		18 flash info (10 - Latvala Jari-Matti / Anttila Miikka): We changed our pacenotes here and they gave me more confidence. I think the rough conditions suit our car well. I just drove over the rocks - this car is like a tank.
10. 05. 2017 19:51
11. 05. 2017 00:51 CET 		18 flash info (8 - Breen Craig / Martin Scott): Happy we could be fast on our first trip here, lets see can we do something special when we go to the events we know better.
10. 05. 2017 19:50
11. 05. 2017 00:50 CET 		18 flash info (4 - Paddon Hayden / Kennard John): We lost powersteering right at the start - the worst stage to lose it on. You couldn't have written a better story about a career high to a career low in just 12 months! I can't believe my luck.
10. 05. 2017 19:49
11. 05. 2017 00:49 CET 		18 flash info (11 - Hänninen Juho / Lindström Kaj): Not so easy for us. We knew before it would be rough but we learned quite a lot.
10. 05. 2017 19:48
11. 05. 2017 00:48 CET 		18 flash info (6 - Sordo Dani / Martí Marc): I don't have any luck. I have good speed in the stage, but got a puncture at the beginning. Just unbelievable. My worst for this rally.
10. 05. 2017 19:48
11. 05. 2017 00:48 CET 		18 (6 - Sordo Dani / Martí Marc): puncture
10. 05. 2017 19:47
11. 05. 2017 00:47 CET 		18 flash info (14 - Østberg Mads / Fløene Ola): The beginning of the rally was very good and I'm very proud and happy to see our pace. We were a bit unlucky yesterday and today the car is not performing. I'm sure when we get on top of a few things we can fight for the full length of a rally.
10. 05. 2017 19:46
11. 05. 2017 00:46 CET 		18 flash info (31 - Tidemand Pontus / Andersson Jonas): I'm very happy with this rally. 25 points is good for the championship and good experience for me too. It was my first time here and we had no problems - I have many people to thank.
10. 05. 2017 19:23
11. 05. 2017 00:23 CET 		17 flash info (3 - Evans Elfyn / Barritt Daniel): More problems in here again, I've got to go.
10. 05. 2017 19:22
11. 05. 2017 00:22 CET 		17 flash info (5 - Neuville Thierry / Gilsoul Nicolas): A very good stage for us. I tried to push hard, my notes were perfect, good traction, I felt fully confident. I'm happy but we have no idea what will happen on the Power Stage.
10. 05. 2017 18:56
10. 05. 2017 23:56 CET 		17 flash info (2 - Tänak Ott / Järveoja Martin): The steering is very heavy and on these roads I'm knackered early in the stages. It's really difficult.
10. 05. 2017 18:55
10. 05. 2017 23:55 CET 		17 flash info (1 - Ogier Sébastien / Ingrassia Julien): Power Stage is the only target we have. I'm not sure though. It's not been my weekend.
10. 05. 2017 18:52
10. 05. 2017 23:52 CET 		17 flash info (10 - Latvala Jari-Matti / Anttila Miikka): I haven't done this stage properly for a long time so I could check and l optimise my notes. I'm happy with that.
10. 05. 2017 18:51
10. 05. 2017 23:51 CET 		17 flash info (4 - Paddon Hayden / Kennard John): It feels like we have a rear-wheel drive car. Something is very, very wrong with the setup or something, I'm not sure what. I don't think we can do anything before the Power Stage.
10. 05. 2017 18:50
10. 05. 2017 23:50 CET 		17 flash info (11 - Hänninen Juho / Lindström Kaj): It was ok but we have an oil temperature warning so I have to go. I saw Bertelli - he is ok.
10. 05. 2017 18:47
10. 05. 2017 23:47 CET 		17 retired (37 - Bertelli Lorenzo / Scattolin Simone): technical problem - gearbox in SS 17
10. 05. 2017 18:46
10. 05. 2017 23:46 CET 		17 flash info (6 - Sordo Dani / Martí Marc): Very loose in here, the road will clean a lot. We stalled the engine in one corner, we arrived a little too quickly and that cost six or seven seconds. Otherwise I enjoyed a lot.
10. 05. 2017 18:43
10. 05. 2017 23:43 CET 		16 flash info (8 - Breen Craig / Martin Scott): It's not easy to get straight back to competition after missing so much of the rally. It's a learning experience.
10. 05. 2017 18:41
10. 05. 2017 23:41 CET 		16 flash info (14 - Østberg Mads / Fløene Ola): I went a little wide in a corner and hit a small rock just at the wrong angle. It completely damaged the rear suspension. Ok, my mistake, just bad luck to ruin the suspension. Now we just try to save our tyres ready for the Power Stage.
10. 05. 2017 18:40
10. 05. 2017 23:40 CET 		16 flash info (3 - Evans Elfyn / Barritt Daniel): I had no brake pedal for half the stage. In the beginning it was going right to the floor, then halfway through it just came back - like some kind of miracle. I have to go and have a look at it now.
10. 05. 2017 18:38
10. 05. 2017 23:38 CET 		16 flash info (5 - Neuville Thierry / Gilsoul Nicolas): I think it's fine if we keep this rhythm. Conditions are quite slippery and I think Elfyn's tyres will work well in this. Not a big, big push from me but a good stage with no problems.
10. 05. 2017 18:38
10. 05. 2017 23:38 CET 		16 flash info (10 - Latvala Jari-Matti / Anttila Miikka): I have no chance. I haven't done this stage properly since 2013 any my notes were not perfect.
10. 05. 2017 18:36
10. 05. 2017 23:36 CET 		16 flash info (4 - Paddon Hayden / Kennard John): The car is not working like last year on this road. It's worlds apart. I can't drive it straight or keep it in the middle of the road. I just don't have the confidence.
10. 05. 2017 18:35
10. 05. 2017 23:35 CET 		16 flash info (11 - Hänninen Juho / Lindström Kaj): I try to enjoy it but it's not easy, I tried to get back into my rhythm.
10. 05. 2017 18:32
10. 05. 2017 23:32 CET 		16 flash info (37 - Bertelli Lorenzo / Scattolin Simone): I don't think I will be able to keep Dani behind. He knows the stages. We'll try though.
10. 05. 2017 18:31
10. 05. 2017 23:31 CET 		16 flash info (6 - Sordo Dani / Martí Marc): Unbelievable. Even if we are first on the road I enjoyed it. There are loads of spectators. The car works well. I tried to push hard. My drive was not so bad.
29. 04. 2017 17:13
29. 04. 2017 22:13 CET 		15 retired (33 - Heller Pedro / Olmos Pablo): retired in SS 15
29. 04. 2017 17:09
29. 04. 2017 22:09 CET 		15 flash info (3 - Evans Elfyn / Barritt Daniel): It's nothing major, a few niggling things that have knocked my confidence. There's something strange at the rear and we're getting a lot of oversteer. I had a spin in the last one at slow speed on the power - I'm just not comfortable. A frustrating afternoon. Of course I can keep Thierry behind me. I didn't come here and do all this for second. If he wants it, he's going to have to bloody fight me for it. If he wants it, he's going to have to bloody fight me for it.
29. 04. 2017 17:08
29. 04. 2017 22:08 CET 		15 flash info (5 - Neuville Thierry / Gilsoul Nicolas): The fight tomorrow is going to be hard but it seems like in these tough conditions our car is working well and we hope to benefit. I think we have a good rhythm. How mush will I risk? We will see.
29. 04. 2017 17:07
29. 04. 2017 22:07 CET 		15 flash info (1 - Ogier Sébastien / Ingrassia Julien): A bad day for sure but that's life sometimes. We had a lot of small issues, now I'm happy to finish and get back to service. Tomorrow we have some very tough stages, and a lot of things can happen, but more than ever I hope to find a good feeling because today nothing was working for us.
29. 04. 2017 17:06
29. 04. 2017 22:06 CET 		15 flash info (4 - Paddon Hayden / Kennard John): We broke a front roll bar on the first stage after service. I tried to fix it for the second stage - we had nothing for the third. Not the afternoon we wanted.
29. 04. 2017 17:04
29. 04. 2017 22:04 CET 		15 flash info (3 - Evans Elfyn / Barritt Daniel): Not so good for Elfyn on that stage - the conditions were rough and tricky. Let's see tomorrow, we have some very special stages and a lead of 30 seconds is nothing. I think it's all open.
29. 04. 2017 17:04
29. 04. 2017 22:04 CET 		15 flash info (6 - Sordo Dani / Martí Marc): We did good times today but it has been difficult as first car on the road.
29. 04. 2017 15:32
29. 04. 2017 20:32 CET 		15 (37 - Bertelli Lorenzo / Scattolin Simone): stopped in stage
29. 04. 2017 15:39
29. 04. 2017 20:39 CET 		14 retired (14 - Østberg Mads / Fløene Ola): damaged suspension in SS 14
29. 04. 2017 15:33
29. 04. 2017 20:33 CET 		14 retired (7 - Meeke Kris / Nagle Paul): accident in SS 14
29. 04. 2017 15:31
29. 04. 2017 20:31 CET 		14 (7 - Meeke Kris / Nagle Paul): rolled
29. 04. 2017 15:26
29. 04. 2017 20:26 CET 		14 (14 - Østberg Mads / Fløene Ola): hit the rock, damaged rear suspension, driver is trying to repair it
29. 04. 2017 15:26
29. 04. 2017 20:26 CET 		14 (7 - Meeke Kris / Nagle Paul): stopped in stage
29. 04. 2017 15:15
29. 04. 2017 20:15 CET 		14 (14 - Østberg Mads / Fløene Ola): stopped in stage
29. 04. 2017 15:00
29. 04. 2017 20:00 CET 		14 No GSM signal, so again no quotes from crews.
29. 04. 2017 14:24
29. 04. 2017 19:24 CET 		13 flash info (7 - Meeke Kris / Nagle Paul): Just enjoying the afternoon.
29. 04. 2017 14:24
29. 04. 2017 19:24 CET 		13 flash info (3 - Evans Elfyn / Barritt Daniel): Nothing happened. It's not so bad. We heard a noise - it sounded like the exhaust had gone.
29. 04. 2017 14:22
29. 04. 2017 19:22 CET 		13 flash info (14 - Østberg Mads / Fløene Ola): I tried to be a more careful through the water to not lose the aero or fill the car with water. I slowed too much. You can't afford to do that when everybody else is going through flat out.
29. 04. 2017 14:21
29. 04. 2017 19:21 CET 		13 flash info (5 - Neuville Thierry / Gilsoul Nicolas): I tried to do well. I had a broken gearbox earlier and the team fitted a new one in service so I have a new diff in the front and I have to get used to it. I also had a long brake pedal in here.
29. 04. 2017 14:20
29. 04. 2017 19:20 CET 		13 flash info (1 - Ogier Sébastien / Ingrassia Julien): A good stage. The car feels better so hopefully we can have some better times in the afternoon.
29. 04. 2017 14:19
29. 04. 2017 19:19 CET 		13 flash info (2 - Tänak Ott / Järveoja Martin): I hope we have the car working well now. In here it was behaving very nicely. On these nice, smooth roads it's all about driving - I enjoyed that.
29. 04. 2017 14:19
29. 04. 2017 19:19 CET 		13 flash info (10 - Latvala Jari-Matti / Anttila Miikka): I have a good feeling with the car, and that gave me confidence. My tyre choice of hards on the front and softs at the rear worked out well.
29. 04. 2017 14:09
29. 04. 2017 19:09 CET 		13 flash info (4 - Paddon Hayden / Kennard John): It would be nice to go faster - the rev limiter comes in a bit early. I enjoyed it. Good fun.
29. 04. 2017 14:08
29. 04. 2017 19:08 CET 		13 flash info (11 - Hänninen Juho / Lindström Kaj): I don't know. The car is pulling at the rear. I hope it's a puncture. We need to go and have a look.
29. 04. 2017 14:08
29. 04. 2017 19:08 CET 		13 flash info (6 - Sordo Dani / Martí Marc): Two big moments in the stage - two times I was like... Aye Aye Aye
29. 04. 2017 14:05
29. 04. 2017 19:05 CET 		12 retired (83 - Biondi Sergio / Salgado Nash Juan): retired in SS 12
29. 04. 2017 14:01
29. 04. 2017 19:01 CET 		12 flash info (3 - Evans Elfyn / Barritt Daniel): A slow puncture in the long stage, then on this one we went wide in a corner near the end - I got a bit lost in the notes - and picked up a rear puncture.
29. 04. 2017 14:00
29. 04. 2017 19:00 CET 		12 (3 - Evans Elfyn / Barritt Daniel): puncture
29. 04. 2017 13:45
29. 04. 2017 18:45 CET 		12 flash info (14 - Østberg Mads / Fløene Ola): The handbrake and everything is working now, but without the rear diffuser I'm losing time on the faster sections. That cost me time on stage 11. This last one was more twisty so not so bad.
29. 04. 2017 13:44
29. 04. 2017 18:44 CET 		12 flash info (5 - Neuville Thierry / Gilsoul Nicolas): A good morning. We drove pretty well - quite a push. We are fighting for a podium position. It will be tricky to catch Evans, my focus is on keeping the other guys behind - especially Ogier.
29. 04. 2017 13:44
29. 04. 2017 18:44 CET 		12 flash info (1 - Ogier Sébastien / Ingrassia Julien): There is something wrong. The car has been undriveable all morning. For sure something is broken.
29. 04. 2017 13:43
29. 04. 2017 18:43 CET 		12 flash info (2 - Tänak Ott / Järveoja Martin): The long one was long and fast. This one was more tight and twisty, we had a spin at the beginning and another later on.
29. 04. 2017 13:42
29. 04. 2017 18:42 CET 		12 flash info (10 - Latvala Jari-Matti / Anttila Miikka): I softened the rear a bit and it helped us here. We are still missing something with the turning-in of the car. If I can get that sorted we can improve.
29. 04. 2017 13:41
29. 04. 2017 18:41 CET 		12 flash info (11 - Hänninen Juho / Lindström Kaj): We have similar power loss like yesterday. We are not sure why but I'm sure the boys can fix it now in service.
29. 04. 2017 13:38
29. 04. 2017 18:38 CET 		12 flash info (6 - Sordo Dani / Martí Marc): Difficult day for us first on the road. A lot of gravel on the surface. The long stage was really nice, the last one was ok. A lot of spectators.
29. 04. 2017 14:01
29. 04. 2017 19:01 CET 		11 (3 - Evans Elfyn / Barritt Daniel): puncture
29. 04. 2017 13:38
29. 04. 2017 18:38 CET 		11 retired (82 - Frisiero Fabio / Agnese Giovanni): retired in SS 11
29. 04. 2017 13:37
29. 04. 2017 18:37 CET 		11 (35 - Saba Gustavo / Mussano Fernando): stopped in stage, continue
29. 04. 2017 13:36
29. 04. 2017 18:36 CET 		11 flash info (10 - Latvala Jari-Matti / Anttila Miikka): The beginning started well but the end wasn't so good. I crashed here last year and didn't see the end of the stage.
29. 04. 2017 13:34
29. 04. 2017 18:34 CET 		11 flash info (11 - Hänninen Juho / Lindström Kaj): We have similar engine issues like yesterday.
29. 04. 2017 13:15
29. 04. 2017 18:15 CET 		11 Stage is delayed for 13 minutes.
29. 04. 2017 08:58
29. 04. 2017 13:58 CET 		10 flash info (7 - Meeke Kris / Nagle Paul): Mechanically, the car was quite fine, it was mainly cosmetic, but the job the guys did was incredible. Ok, it's hard to get the confidence again after the fright yesterday. We continue and we learn.
29. 04. 2017 08:54
29. 04. 2017 13:54 CET 		10 flash info (3 - Evans Elfyn / Barritt Daniel): Pretty dodgy at the start when I felt the grip was low. After that the speed and commitment improved. Ok but I could have done better in a few places
29. 04. 2017 08:51
29. 04. 2017 13:51 CET 		10 flash info (14 - Østberg Mads / Fløene Ola): Many things happened in there - we have a hydraulic problem - no centre-diff or handbrake - then in a watersplash the water coated the inside of the windscreen. We had to use the heated screen to try and dry it up
29. 04. 2017 08:50
29. 04. 2017 13:50 CET 		10 flash info (5 - Neuville Thierry / Gilsoul Nicolas): I was too fast for a corner, I couldn't see the apex because of the sun, missed the braking and hit a bank. We were lucky to get away only with a puncture.
29. 04. 2017 08:49
29. 04. 2017 13:49 CET 		10 (5 - Neuville Thierry / Gilsoul Nicolas): puncture
29. 04. 2017 08:48
29. 04. 2017 13:48 CET 		10 flash info (1 - Ogier Sébastien / Ingrassia Julien): This wasn't really a good stage for me. I had to brake for a dog in the road, then I almost spun in a watersplash. Just bad luck.
29. 04. 2017 08:47
29. 04. 2017 13:47 CET 		10 flash info (2 - Tänak Ott / Järveoja Martin): We stalled the engine on the start line, I don't understand it. Not a nice way to start a stage like this. I gave it a bigger push than normal let's say.
29. 04. 2017 08:46
29. 04. 2017 13:46 CET 		10 flash info (10 - Latvala Jari-Matti / Anttila Miikka): For sure we are in a bit of competition now. I tried to push here - but it was difficult with the sun in my eyes.
29. 04. 2017 08:45
29. 04. 2017 13:45 CET 		10 flash info (4 - Paddon Hayden / Kennard John): We're going to be patient. There's nothing we can do to catch the guys ahead. We're checking the notes, trying a few setup changes for Portugal, then maybe we'll have more of a push this afternoon.
29. 04. 2017 08:45
29. 04. 2017 13:45 CET 		10 flash info (37 - Bertelli Lorenzo / Scattolin Simone): I was cautious here. The sun is so bright I was completely blinded in sixth gear flat-out a nice stage.
29. 04. 2017 08:44
29. 04. 2017 13:44 CET 		10 flash info (11 - Hänninen Juho / Lindström Kaj): A really nice stage but tricky to see in places with the position of the sun.
29. 04. 2017 08:43
29. 04. 2017 13:43 CET 		10 flash info (6 - Sordo Dani / Martí Marc): Difficult. The beginning was very narrow with a lot of crests and a lot of gravel. The end was faster. We can't do much today. We just try to keep pushing and get to the end.
29. 04. 2017 08:36
29. 04. 2017 13:36 CET 		10 retired (8 - Breen Craig / Martin Scott): technical problem - oil leak before SS 10
28. 04. 2017 20:11
29. 04. 2017 01:11 CET 		9 flash info (14 - Østberg Mads / Fløene Ola): We push and push. A tough fight and still a long way to go but we are ready to fight.
28. 04. 2017 20:10
29. 04. 2017 01:10 CET 		9 flash info (11 - Hänninen Juho / Lindström Kaj): Some issues in the morning then in the afternoon I was a bit too careful with the pacenotes. Tomorrow is a new day.
28. 04. 2017 20:09
29. 04. 2017 01:09 CET 		9 flash info (3 - Evans Elfyn / Barritt Daniel): A really positive day. We can be happy for the whole team. A very long way to go and even Sunday is tough. We have to just carry on in the morning like today didn't happen.
28. 04. 2017 20:08
29. 04. 2017 01:08 CET 		9 flash info (4 - Paddon Hayden / Kennard John): A tough day but there's still a long way to go. We won a couple of stages this afternoon so we showed the speed is there. We just need to put it together tomorrow.
28. 04. 2017 20:07
29. 04. 2017 01:07 CET 		9 flash info (5 - Neuville Thierry / Gilsoul Nicolas): I'm feeling good. A shame about the puncture, otherwise we would be in second. Still, we have caught back a lot of time and my mechanics did a great job too.
28. 04. 2017 20:06
29. 04. 2017 01:06 CET 		9 flash info (2 - Tänak Ott / Järveoja Martin): Other than the puncture all ok. Tomorrow's stages should suit me.
28. 04. 2017 20:05
29. 04. 2017 01:05 CET 		9 flash info (10 - Latvala Jari-Matti / Anttila Miikka): It's been a difficult afternoon, but we never give up and keep fighting. Tomorrow is another day.
28. 04. 2017 20:05
29. 04. 2017 01:05 CET 		9 flash info (1 - Ogier Sébastien / Ingrassia Julien): I'm happy to reach the end of a tough day. Tomorrow I will have a better start position and won't have to clean the road.
28. 04. 2017 17:43
28. 04. 2017 22:43 CET 		8 flash info (37 - Bertelli Lorenzo / Scattolin Simone): Not a good stage for me, a lot of understeer. Still, better than last year.
28. 04. 2017 17:41
28. 04. 2017 22:41 CET 		8 flash info (14 - Østberg Mads / Fløene Ola): I struggled a bit in here with the brakes. The pedal went really long. In a couple of places I almost couldn't stop the car. That's not so nice for your concentration and I made a couple of stupid mistakes.
28. 04. 2017 17:41
28. 04. 2017 22:41 CET 		8 flash info (3 - Evans Elfyn / Barritt Daniel): We tried to keep it clean. Quite loose in places and the grip wasn't massively consistent. Overall pretty good.
28. 04. 2017 17:40
28. 04. 2017 22:40 CET 		8 flash info (4 - Paddon Hayden / Kennard John): It's feeling much better this afternoon. The stages are starting to feel more normal. I'm feeling a bit more at home and I enjoy tomorrow's stages. Ok, there's a long way to go, and anything can happen. It's not over til the fat lady sings.
28. 04. 2017 17:38
28. 04. 2017 22:38 CET 		8 flash info (6 - Sordo Dani / Martí Marc): We caught a lot of dust from the car ahead and we stalled in a corner.
28. 04. 2017 17:36
28. 04. 2017 22:36 CET 		8 flash info (2 - Tänak Ott / Järveoja Martin): I got puncture 10km before the end. The Michelins are good - 10km on a flat tyre and it never came off the rim. I was able to drive ok - I must say we were quite lucky.
28. 04. 2017 17:36
28. 04. 2017 22:36 CET 		8 (2 - Tänak Ott / Järveoja Martin): puncture
28. 04. 2017 17:35
28. 04. 2017 22:35 CET 		8 flash info (5 - Neuville Thierry / Gilsoul Nicolas): I had to take it smooth to protect the rear tyres.
28. 04. 2017 17:34
28. 04. 2017 22:34 CET 		8 flash info (10 - Latvala Jari-Matti / Anttila Miikka): Puncture happened 6km in. I was avoiding a rock when I went wide and put the tyre off the rim. We lost 30sec so it was better to carry on than stop and change.
28. 04. 2017 17:33
28. 04. 2017 22:33 CET 		8 flash info (1 - Ogier Sébastien / Ingrassia Julien): I hit a big rock just after a crest, I couldn't avoid it. I had bent steering to finish the stage. I pushed like hell. I couldn't do any more - the road is so loose.
28. 04. 2017 17:08
28. 04. 2017 22:08 CET 		8 (10 - Latvala Jari-Matti / Anttila Miikka): puncture
28. 04. 2017 16:46
28. 04. 2017 21:46 CET 		7 flash info (14 - Østberg Mads / Fløene Ola): A few places could have been better but it's a tricky stage.
28. 04. 2017 16:45
28. 04. 2017 21:45 CET 		7 flash info (11 - Hänninen Juho / Lindström Kaj): I'm starting to enjoy it a bit now. I can see so many places where I could be faster. The car is working really well now.
28. 04. 2017 16:44
28. 04. 2017 21:44 CET 		7 flash info (3 - Evans Elfyn / Barritt Daniel): We didn't go silly, silly in there. On the last stage I thought perhaps we had done too much. Conditions were much better in here than in the previous one. The grip was good too. All good.
28. 04. 2017 16:43
28. 04. 2017 21:43 CET 		7 flash info (4 - Paddon Hayden / Kennard John): Not so much cleaning now, I think the road conditions are pretty even for this pass. It gave me more confidence.
28. 04. 2017 16:42
28. 04. 2017 21:42 CET 		7 flash info (6 - Sordo Dani / Martí Marc): We had our problems on this stage last time, so there were some sections where we had not corrected our pacenotes. Overall a better run.
28. 04. 2017 16:41
28. 04. 2017 21:41 CET 		7 flash info (2 - Tänak Ott / Järveoja Martin): The stage looks smoother and not so bad as before. In some places we tried harder, in others we were calm. It's better for me when the stages are like this.
28. 04. 2017 16:41
28. 04. 2017 21:41 CET 		7 flash info (5 - Neuville Thierry / Gilsoul Nicolas): It was ok but I got some dust in my eyes and I struggled to see the road. I tried not to slow down and ruin the rhythm.
28. 04. 2017 16:40
28. 04. 2017 21:40 CET 		7 flash info (10 - Latvala Jari-Matti / Anttila Miikka): The engine overheating problem is solved. We fixed it on the road section. We managed to do a normal stage.
28. 04. 2017 16:39
28. 04. 2017 21:39 CET 		7 flash info (1 - Ogier Sébastien / Ingrassia Julien): It's difficult. I’m doing as much as I can. I am on the limit.

28. 04. 2017 20:46 CET 		6 flash info (14 - Østberg Mads / Fløene Ola): Fantastic. A good stage. After such a long time out of the car we picked a good strategy before the rally - it's so nice when you pick a plan and it works. What was it? I will not say. It's a secret plan.
28. 04. 2017 15:45
28. 04. 2017 20:45 CET 		6 flash info (11 - Hänninen Juho / Lindström Kaj): It's ok. I took it really safely in here - it is so rough.
28. 04. 2017 15:44
28. 04. 2017 20:44 CET 		6 flash info (3 - Evans Elfyn / Barritt Daniel): It's going pretty well but it's rough out there and difficult to know if you are doing enough. Everything is ok. The tyres feel good, and the car seems to be working well.
28. 04. 2017 15:43
28. 04. 2017 20:43 CET 		6 flash info (4 - Paddon Hayden / Kennard John): The guys have done a good job, fixed it up. We're just going to pick a comfortable pace, keep it neat and see what happens.
28. 04. 2017 15:43
28. 04. 2017 20:43 CET 		6 flash info (6 - Sordo Dani / Martí Marc): A bit more difficult than the morning. I didn't want to take risks to go faster. We have already broken things.
28. 04. 2017 15:42
28. 04. 2017 20:42 CET 		6 flash info (2 - Tänak Ott / Järveoja Martin): You need to take risks if you want to go fast on this one. I had a clean run. A smart drive.
28. 04. 2017 15:41
28. 04. 2017 20:41 CET 		6 flash info (5 - Neuville Thierry / Gilsoul Nicolas): We had a very good stage but I was overheating in a couple of places - I had to manage the temperature a bit. Otherwise a good feeling.
28. 04. 2017 15:40
28. 04. 2017 20:40 CET 		6 flash info (10 - Latvala Jari-Matti / Anttila Miikka): We have an engine temperature problem and I was in safe mode for a lot of the stage. A bit the same as Mexico. I'm not happy.
28. 04. 2017 15:39
28. 04. 2017 20:39 CET 		6 flash info (1 - Ogier Sébastien / Ingrassia Julien): Not more rough than this morning but it's much more dry and loose. Hard for us to make a good time I guess.

28. 04. 2017 11:26
28. 04. 2017 16:26 CET 		4 flash info (33 - Heller Pedro / Olmos Pablo): How was it? Rough, rough and rough. We are learning all the time.
28. 04. 2017 11:26
28. 04. 2017 16:26 CET 		4 flash info (31 - Tidemand Pontus / Andersson Jonas): Just keeping the focus and trying not to take risks. We are still here. A good start to the rally so far.

28. 04. 2017 16:23 CET 		4 flash info (14 - Østberg Mads / Fløene Ola): Still trying to find my rhythm.
28. 04. 2017 11:07
28. 04. 2017 16:07 CET 		4 flash info (11 - Hänninen Juho / Lindström Kaj): We still have an issue with the power.
28. 04. 2017 11:06
28. 04. 2017 16:06 CET 		4 flash info (7 - Meeke Kris / Nagle Paul): I got completely caught by surprise. A bump in the road just launched the car. It's difficult to drive but let's see if we can get it back.
28. 04. 2017 11:04
28. 04. 2017 16:04 CET 		4 flash info (3 - Evans Elfyn / Barritt Daniel): Things are working quite well. We pushed on the stage before but I wasn't entirely comfortable here so I brought it back a bit. There's little margin for error so we wanted to drive carefully.
28. 04. 2017 11:01
28. 04. 2017 16:01 CET 		4 flash info (8 - Breen Craig / Martin Scott): We were stuck in fifth gear after a massive compression.

28. 04. 2017 10:58
28. 04. 2017 15:58 CET 		4 flash info (2 - Tänak Ott / Järveoja Martin): Last year I broke the car on this stage so this time I was a bit more careful. The feeling is not great at the moment but we are here safely.
28. 04. 2017 10:58
28. 04. 2017 15:58 CET 		4 (7 - Meeke Kris / Nagle Paul): was out of road
28. 04. 2017 10:50
28. 04. 2017 15:50 CET 		4 flash info (10 - Latvala Jari-Matti / Anttila Miikka): We lost a section of the front bumper in a water splash earlier and I can feel that in the high- speed sections.
28. 04. 2017 10:49
28. 04. 2017 15:49 CET 		4 flash info (1 - Ogier Sébastien / Ingrassia Julien): This was always going to be a difficult stage for me. The road conditions are more loose. I expect to lose time.
28. 04. 2017 10:34
28. 04. 2017 15:34 CET 		3 flash info (34 - Ptaszek Hubert / Szczepaniak Maciej): Pontus is so fast and I am happy to be so close. We have to be careful to look after the car. These roads are very rough.
28. 04. 2017 10:30
28. 04. 2017 15:30 CET 		3 flash info (33 - Heller Pedro / Olmos Pablo): The car stopped near the end. We reset all the switches and got going. We lost 20sec but we are fine and gaining experience with every kilometre.
28. 04. 2017 10:28
28. 04. 2017 15:28 CET 		3 flash info (32 - Guerra Benito / Cue Daniel): No good. I'm overheating the brakes. The same problem I had in Mexico.
28. 04. 2017 10:28
28. 04. 2017 15:28 CET 		3 flash info (31 - Tidemand Pontus / Andersson Jonas): It's been ok. Avoiding the rocks. Here with with no problems.
28. 04. 2017 10:24
28. 04. 2017 15:24 CET 		3 flash info (37 - Bertelli Lorenzo / Scattolin Simone): We had a big moment in the opening stage. It's taking me time to adjust to the conditions.
28. 04. 2017 10:20
28. 04. 2017 15:20 CET 		3 flash info (6 - Sordo Dani / Martí Marc): We hit a stone and broke a steering arm. We stopped to change it.
28. 04. 2017 10:18
28. 04. 2017 15:18 CET 		3 flash info (11 - Hänninen Juho / Lindström Kaj): Still I don't know what the problem is. Some power loss. It's really difficult to say why.
28. 04. 2017 10:17
28. 04. 2017 15:17 CET 		3 flash info (3 - Evans Elfyn / Barritt Daniel): I tried to keep it tidy. I'm struggling a little with the balance of the car but the tyres are working well. A positive start.
28. 04. 2017 10:15
28. 04. 2017 15:15 CET 		3 flash info (4 - Paddon Hayden / Kennard John): We have a small suspension problem and the cooling fans are not working so we need to keep moving.
28. 04. 2017 10:15
28. 04. 2017 15:15 CET 		3 flash info (7 - Meeke Kris / Nagle Paul): A very fast stage. I've only done this stage once before. No cleaning like on the previous stage so I'm pretty happy with my time.
28. 04. 2017 10:14
28. 04. 2017 15:14 CET 		3 flash info (8 - Breen Craig / Martin Scott): This is a stage that the other guys have done before. Ok, it's not terrible.
28. 04. 2017 10:13
28. 04. 2017 15:13 CET 		3 flash info (2 - Tänak Ott / Järveoja Martin): I made a big change to the setup and the car is completely different. Before there was not so much traction. This is a very good step.
28. 04. 2017 10:13
28. 04. 2017 15:13 CET 		3 flash info (5 - Neuville Thierry / Gilsoul Nicolas): We have a broken front-right damper. I did the maximum I could.
28. 04. 2017 10:11
28. 04. 2017 15:11 CET 		3 flash info (10 - Latvala Jari-Matti / Anttila Miikka): We didn't hit anything, but we lost front slipper. We went wide in one place but nothing significant. Quite hard conditions. It was rainy on the recce and now it's so dry it's like rock.
28. 04. 2017 10:10
28. 04. 2017 15:10 CET 		3 (6 - Sordo Dani / Martí Marc): stopped in stage, continue
28. 04. 2017 10:00
28. 04. 2017 15:00 CET 		3 flash info (1 - Ogier Sébastien / Ingrassia Julien): Really quick. Ok, the car is not perfect after the last stage but the car is very, very unstable. Missing some aero doesn't help but that's not all - we need to work on the suspension.
28. 04. 2017 09:30
28. 04. 2017 14:30 CET 		2 flash info (14 - Østberg Mads / Fløene Ola): A difficult stage and I struggled in there - but apparently everybody did. I don't think it's a bad time.
28. 04. 2017 09:29
28. 04. 2017 14:29 CET 		2 flash info (11 - Hänninen Juho / Lindström Kaj): I don't know. We lost the power. We have to go and have a look.
28. 04. 2017 09:29
28. 04. 2017 14:29 CET 		2 flash info (3 - Evans Elfyn / Barritt Daniel): Good, but to be fair there was some cleaning - that was clear to see. An ok run though. We will continue the pace - a good start.
28. 04. 2017 09:28
28. 04. 2017 14:28 CET 		2 (11 - Hänninen Juho / Lindström Kaj): technical problems
28. 04. 2017 09:16
28. 04. 2017 14:16 CET 		2 flash info (7 - Meeke Kris / Nagle Paul): The only stage in the loop where we'll get some cleaning. A big moment on a big bump near the start - it just launched the car. Otherwise a good stage.
28. 04. 2017 09:15
28. 04. 2017 14:15 CET 		2 flash info (6 - Sordo Dani / Martí Marc): I'm happy with the stage but the road is rough and difficult for the cars - it will be hard on the second pass.
28. 04. 2017 09:13
28. 04. 2017 14:13 CET 		2 flash info (10 - Latvala Jari-Matti / Anttila Miikka): It was completely wet on the recce but now it is dry - there is no damp. There were many fast compressions - a couple surprised me - they hit the sump guard hard. The road will clean a lot.
28. 04. 2017 09:12
28. 04. 2017 14:12 CET 		2 flash info (1 - Ogier Sébastien / Ingrassia Julien): A wrong pacenote in a tight corner. I went straight on in a corner and into a ditch. I lost 5 or 6 seconds. The car looks ok.
28. 04. 2017 09:12
28. 04. 2017 14:12 CET 		2 (4 - Paddon Hayden / Kennard John): rolled, continue
28. 04. 2017 09:01

27. 04. 2017 20:15
28. 04. 2017 01:15 CET 		1 flash info (1 - Ogier Sébastien / Ingrassia Julien): Not so bad. I'm happy with my driving. I tried to push. The car feels ok.
27. 04. 2017 20:14
28. 04. 2017 01:14 CET 		1 flash info (10 - Latvala Jari-Matti / Anttila Miikka): The feeling is good to start the rally. Maybe I could have been quicker in a few places but the performance of the car was good.
27. 04. 2017 20:14
28. 04. 2017 01:14 CET 		1 flash info (5 - Neuville Thierry / Gilsoul Nicolas): I made a small mistake on the first corner and lost a few seconds. After that maybe I didn't push enough. Still, a good start.
27. 04. 2017 20:01
28. 04. 2017 01:01 CET 		1 flash info (7 - Meeke Kris / Nagle Paul): A nice little stage here, to be honest. A steady run. No dramas.
27. 04. 2017 20:00
28. 04. 2017 01:00 CET 		1 flash info (2 - Tänak Ott / Järveoja Martin): We missed a junction here - it's not easy to see them in the dark.
27. 04. 2017 19:59
28. 04. 2017 00:59 CET 		1 flash info (6 - Sordo Dani / Martí Marc): I can do a little bit better. No mistakes here, but in a few places I wasn't fast enough. I'm happy at the moment but there is a hard rally ahead.
