INFORMATION ABOUT SS 2
(60 - Cracco Pieter-Jan-Michiel / Vermeulen Jasper): stopped in stage, continue
flash info (2 - Solberg Oliver / Marshall Sebastian): It's very difficult in the dark because you're fully sideways and you don't know what you are going to hit! I am really starting to understand everything now, so it was very enjoyable and great to drive on this stage.
(23 - Johnston Sean / Kihurani Alexander): stopped in stage, continue
(7 - Loubet Pierre-Louis / Landais Vincent): puncture
flash info (42 - Breen Craig / Nagle Paul): Shocking. The last 3km were a huge surprise to me. I was missing the front in a few places and I really wasn't trying to protect them because I didn't think I would be losing studs.
flash info (3 - Suninen Teemu / Markkula Mikko): I was on my limit. The rhythm felt quite good, it was difficult conditions to drive clean but still go fast. I'm happy for my driving.
flash info (8 - Tänak Ott / Järveoja Martin): I tried to be very nice to the tyres at the beginning and after 10km I thought - the tyres were finished - and I knew there was still 20km to go. In the end it was just handbrake. I tried to be as nice as possible, but it was difficult, it's just such a hard surface.
(7 - Loubet Pierre-Louis / Landais Vincent): stopped in stage, continue
flash info (44 - Greensmith Gus / Edmondson Elliott): Pretty god damn good! In the dark, it's just relying on the notes and it was much better than the first one. We gave away so much time on the first stage which was disappointing, but at least it's good now.
flash info (18 - Katsuta Takamoto / Barritt Daniel): It's very challenging. On a lot of crests you can not see ahead, which makes it more scary for you! At the end of the stage we had a puncture so I had to slow down. We survived this tricky stage so I am happy!
flash info (69 - Rovanperä Kalle / Halttunen Jonne): Not good. The stage is in really bad condition with a lot of gravel, so my front tyres are completely gone and I lost a lot of time at the end. If somebody can manage their tyres really good, they will be really quick.
flash info (11 - Neuville Thierry / Wydaeghe Martijn): In the conditions, I am quite satisfied. I had a lot of understeer towards the end and I thought I had a puncture so I took a lot of speed off.
flash info (33 - Evans Elfyn / Martin Scott): Not easy, especially towards the end with a lot of loose snow. It was often quite difficult to get the car turned in, but we tried.
flash info (1 - Ogier Sébastien / Ingrassia Julien): It's a different story but the time difference will be the same. I did what I could but it was quite difficult. We'll see what we can do tomororw, but it looks like we will be quite far away already.
