| INFORMATION ABOUT SS 7 | |
(14 - Østberg Mads / Fløene Ola):
retired after SS 7 | |
|
(91 - Levin Andreas / Nilsson Björn):
technical problem - engine after SS 7 | |
(45 - Greensmith Gus / Parry Craig):
A lot of condensation inside the windscreen made it hard to see in a few places but so far this has been a good learning day. | |
|
(40 - Camilli Eric / Veillas Benjamin):
Very icy now. I missed one junction but otherwise a good feeling here - better than this morning. | |
|
(36 - Brynildsen Eyvind / Fredriksson Anders):
We used our spare tyre earlier. Now my front tyres have almost no studs left. | |
| (34 - Veiby Ole Christian / Skjærmoen Stig Rune): spun | |
|
(14 - Østberg Mads / Fløene Ola):
Absolutely no fun driving without the rear spoiler. It's been so hard to just stay on the road. I put my best tyres on the rear here to try and stabilise the car but it didn't work so well. That's good news that our spoiler was returned back to the team, there aren't too many spares around and I didn't want to do the rest of the rally without it. | |
|
(32 - Tidemand Pontus / Andersson Jonas):
Everything is working really good, we are really enjoying the drive. | |
|
(31 - Suninen Teemu / Markkula Mikko):
A good push in there. | |
|
(4 - Paddon Hayden / Kennard John):
This afternoon has definitely been better - credit to my engineer for the set-up changes that have helped me. I felt the studs going here though, and I only have one spare. | |
|
(7 - Meeke Kris / Nagle Paul):
I've picked up the rhythm again. I got a lot of movement from the studs at the midpoint and I had to back off after that. I thought my time was good but it looks like Thierry had a blinder. | |
|
(5 - Neuville Thierry / Gilsoul Nicolas):
A really good stage to be honest, but the grip was completely gone - it felt like I had no studs. Jari-Matti had the advantage earlier but I tried to benefit from the cleaner line this afternoon. The car is going well, better and better. | |
|
(15 - Lefebvre Stéphane / Moreau Gabin):
I thought I had the same amount of grip as the previous stage. I didn't. | |
|
(3 - Evans Elfyn / Barritt Daniel):
So little grip. I don't know what's happened but its like the grip went off the edge of a cliff after the previous stage. | |
|
(8 - Breen Craig / Martin Scott):
We patched it up as best we could but it's incredible the effect that the aero makes. I lost a four or five seconds with a small mistake but otherwise ok. | |
|
(6 - Sordo Dani / Martí Marc):
Better than earlier but now the studs on the tyres start to be damaged. There's not a lot of grip - and a big difference between the amount at the front and the rear. | |
|
(2 - Tänak Ott / Järveoja Martin):
Difficult with so much loose snow on the surface and maybe the tyres starting to wear too. Very slippery. | |
|
(10 - Latvala Jari-Matti / Anttila Miikka):
Not a good stage for me. I tried too hard. The condition were difficult and the line was very narrow. I made mistakes and ran wide in places. I will lose a lot of time here. | |
|
(1 - Ogier Sébastien / Ingrassia Julien):
It's been a very tough afternoon for us. Now there is just one more stage to go before hopefully we can benefit from better road conditions tomorrow. | |
