12. 09. 2021 13:41 CET
15 (30 - Rossel Yohan / Coria Alexandre): Frantic scenes as the crew work on the car after the stop line. They've just left and are on the 45km road section to the final control now...

12. 09. 2021 13:39 CET
15 (30 - Rossel Yohan / Coria Alexandre): Provisionally the winner of WRC3, but he hit something 3km from the end of the stage. The impact broke the steering wheel of his C3 and he is uncertain if he will be able to drive the car back to the finish.

15 flash info (69 - Rovanperä Kalle / Halttunen Jonne): I was not maybe the most comfortable coming here but it just showed that now everything is going well for us and we can really push hard. Big thanks to the team, everybody did a great job. We had a perfect car and also a rough rally and it was running without issues all the time. I hope at least the same speed in Finland, but let's see.
12. 09. 2021 14:38
12. 09. 2021 13:38 CET
15 flash info (8 - Tänak Ott / Järveoja Martin): We were really close at the start of this stage - there was an issue again and a lot of smoke and we couldn't start the car until a few seconds before the start. We are really lucky. Thanks to the weather guys - they have done a great job with the weather and thanks to them we have always been on the right tyres.
12. 09. 2021 14:38
12. 09. 2021 13:38 CET
15 flash info (1 - Ogier Sébastien / Ingrassia Julien): I think we reached the target we wanted this weekend - to maintain the lead - and we actually increased it now. Not an easy one, the conditions were changing all the time, but I think we did a clean rally.
12. 09. 2021 14:38
12. 09. 2021 13:38 CET
15 flash info (6 - Sordo Dani / Carrera Cándido): The weekend was really bad. We made a little bit bad pace notes and we didn't have confidence during the rally. We couldn't do much more than fourth position, so we just tried to keep it and on the next one we will try to do better.
12. 09. 2021 14:38
12. 09. 2021 13:38 CET
15 flash info (44 - Greensmith Gus / Patterson Chris): Seeing that our form on rougher rallies this year has generally been strong I was hoping for a little bit more, but for one reason or another it hasn’t come. I was enjoying the battle with Adrien but unfortunately he hit problems this morning.
12. 09. 2021 14:37
12. 09. 2021 13:37 CET
15 flash info (16 - Fourmaux Adrien / Jamoul Renaud): I spun, so I had to reverse and go back. I tried and I had a big push in the stage. Unfortunately we lost sixth position but at least we have tried.
12. 09. 2021 14:37
12. 09. 2021 13:37 CET
15 flash info (33 - Evans Elfyn / Martin Scott): There's a lot of ifs and buts in rallying. The feeling in the car was generally quite good but you can never predict these things and you can never say what if. Not our weekend this time, but there we go.
12. 09. 2021 14:37
12. 09. 2021 13:37 CET
15 flash info (11 - Neuville Thierry / Wydaeghe Martijn): I don't know. We always try to give it everything and even this weekend we didn't give up, but unfortunately no compensation for all that work. I think we deserve more to be honest because we are putting everything into it and we just get out not what we should.
12. 09. 2021 14:37
12. 09. 2021 13:37 CET
15 flash info (9 - Serderidis Jourdan / Miclotte Fréderic): It was fun, so many people and so many fans from Greece, so just for this it was nice to come. We had a great time, especially in this stage because it was drying. The perfect weekend for us.
12. 09. 2021 14:36
12. 09. 2021 13:36 CET
15 flash info (20 - Mikkelsen Andreas / Edmondson Elliott): Looking really good. I have to say, Elliott has done an amazing job jumping straight in this weekend. It's an amazing team results: one and two for Toksport. We drove very clever and haven't hit one stone all weekend, so I am very happy with my performance.
12. 09. 2021 14:36
12. 09. 2021 13:36 CET
15 flash info (22 - Bulacia Marco / Der Ohannesian Marcelo): I am very pleased with our job this weekend. Also very grateful for our team and all the people around me. We did our best, but Andreas was stronger today. I am very happy, it's my first time here and we showed that we had a good pace and we brought the car safely home.
12. 09. 2021 14:36
12. 09. 2021 13:36 CET
15 flash info (23 - Gryazin Nikolay / Aleksandrov Konstantin): It's okay. A lot of things to work with, but okay, at least we are on the finish. I have no special comments for it.
12. 09. 2021 14:34
12. 09. 2021 13:34 CET
15 Starting order: Gryazin, Bulacia, Mikkelsen, Serderidis, Neuville, Evans, Fourmaux, Greensmith, Sordo, Ogier, Tänak, Rovanperä
12. 09. 2021 14:34
12. 09. 2021 13:34 CET
14 flash info (20 - Mikkelsen Andreas / Edmondson Elliott): Very happy. I am trying to be in a good rhythm without taking any risks. I tried to be consistent in my driving and driving around every stone, so it's working well.
12. 09. 2021 14:34
12. 09. 2021 13:34 CET
14 flash info (22 - Bulacia Marco / Der Ohannesian Marcelo): It was very nice. At the end we were sliding a lot because we don't have too much grip. I don't know how Andreas is going, but I am pretty happy with my stage here and we will see if we can grab as much points as we can in the power stage.
12. 09. 2021 14:34
12. 09. 2021 13:34 CET
14 flash info (69 - Rovanperä Kalle / Halttunen Jonne): It was really difficult. We were thinking it's a bit more dry and it was really muddy in the forest. With the hard tyres at the front it was maybe the most difficult stage I have done this weekend, it didn't work at all.
12. 09. 2021 14:33
12. 09. 2021 13:33 CET
14 flash info (8 - Tänak Ott / Järveoja Martin): Good stage - it was not disturbing so much, just a bit under visibility. Basically I had no control of the wipers and in the previous stage it was raining.
12. 09. 2021 14:33
12. 09. 2021 13:33 CET
14 flash info (1 - Ogier Sébastien / Ingrassia Julien): All okay. Now we are just trying to go through and waiting for the power stage - that will be the last push we need to have for this rally.
12. 09. 2021 14:33
12. 09. 2021 13:33 CET
14 flash info (6 - Sordo Dani / Carrera Cándido): I feel quite relaxed. One stage more and it's over. We are all the weekend just trying to get the fourth position, so now we will continue like this.
12. 09. 2021 14:33
12. 09. 2021 13:33 CET
14 flash info (44 - Greensmith Gus / Patterson Chris): Thankfully there's not as much to fight for, so we don't have to be in a battle. The notes in this stage and the last one were shocking - I'm driving more on sight than I am on my pace notes.
12. 09. 2021 14:32
12. 09. 2021 13:32 CET
14 flash info (33 - Evans Elfyn / Martin Scott): No grip at all on this last section, and also the notes were a bit brave in places. We wrote them in thick fog, so a few surprises in there.
12. 09. 2021 14:32
12. 09. 2021 13:32 CET
14 flash info (11 - Neuville Thierry / Wydaeghe Martijn): I had a good stage. Quite tricky in there with very slippery sections, but I did my best. Obviously a lot of cleaning, especially towards the end, but I couldn't go any faster.
12. 09. 2021 14:32
12. 09. 2021 13:32 CET
14 flash info (9 - Serderidis Jourdan / Miclotte Fréderic): The longest! It's tricky and it's also muddy, so there are some places where there can be some dramas. We had a clean run and one of the best for us.
12. 09. 2021 14:31
12. 09. 2021 13:31 CET
14 Stage will be delayed for 6 minutes.
12. 09. 2021 14:42
12. 09. 2021 13:42 CET
13 retired (65 - Kaltsounis Haris / Peridis Andreas): retired after SS 13
12. 09. 2021 14:31
12. 09. 2021 13:31 CET
13 flash info (16 - Fourmaux Adrien / Jamoul Renaud): We have been late. We had an engine issue on the road section, so we needed to fix it before the stage. We noticed only before the stage, so we lost a lot of time with the time penalty and lost the fight for sure. It was the spark plugs. We only changed that. We tried to have a clean drive here.
12. 09. 2021 14:30
12. 09. 2021 13:30 CET
13 flash info (69 - Rovanperä Kalle / Halttunen Jonne): I was pushing a lot. But not too much I just enjoyed the driving and I think our pace notes and everything is really well-prepared. I had a good feeling in the car and pushed quite a lot. The beginning was difficult, there was much less grip than we thought and with the hard [tyres] it was tricky.
12. 09. 2021 14:30
12. 09. 2021 13:30 CET
13 flash info (8 - Tänak Ott / Järveoja Martin): For us, it's okay, but we are carrying some electrical issue so I am trying to manage at the moment. It's far from perfect.
12. 09. 2021 14:30
12. 09. 2021 13:30 CET
13 flash info (1 - Ogier Sébastien / Ingrassia Julien): Tricky conditions - at the beginning it was very low grip. Wrong tyre choice for sure, full softs would have been best, but we didn't know it was going to rain.
12. 09. 2021 14:30
12. 09. 2021 13:30 CET
13 flash info (6 - Sordo Dani / Carrera Cándido): It's a nice stage, and the grip I liked. But in some corners I lost a lot of time with the pace notes. When the stage is in perfect condition to push it's so nice, but I don't want to make a stupid mistake also.
12. 09. 2021 14:29
12. 09. 2021 13:29 CET
13 flash info (44 - Greensmith Gus / Patterson Chris): It wasn't a good stage. I was struggling to find a line and the grip. Not good enough.
12. 09. 2021 14:29
12. 09. 2021 13:29 CET
13 flash info (33 - Evans Elfyn / Martin Scott): It started off pretty bad - not the ideal tyre choice for there. Really quite mixed grip, like expected, but it still doesn't make it any easier.
12. 09. 2021 14:29
12. 09. 2021 13:29 CET
13 flash info (11 - Neuville Thierry / Wydaeghe Martijn): So many places to discover - it was a hell of a stage. Towards the end, my pace notes were too optimistic so I didn't tryst anymore and I slowed down the rhythm. It's really tricky in there, in many places the grip is lower than what you can see.
12. 09. 2021 14:28
12. 09. 2021 13:28 CET
13 flash info (9 - Serderidis Jourdan / Miclotte Fréderic): I didn't expect to be first on the road, but it's really muddy at the beginning and also the end is not so good. The grip is variable, so you don't have the confidence. The last part is more fun, and that's it.
12. 09. 2021 14:28
12. 09. 2021 13:28 CET
13 (16 - Fourmaux Adrien / Jamoul Renaud): He's working on his Fiesta before the stage. It's unlikely he'll start on time.
12. 09. 2021 14:28
12. 09. 2021 13:28 CET
13 (11 - Neuville Thierry / Wydaeghe Martijn): He will start two minutes late due to spectator safety issues in the closing kilometres.
12. 09. 2021 14:27
12. 09. 2021 13:27 CET
13 It looks difficult! The surface is a lot muddier than yesterday. There's some low cloud at the beginning and reports of light rain towards the end.
12. 09. 2021 14:27
12. 09. 2021 13:27 CET
13 retired (7 - Loubet Pierre-Louis / Haut-Labourdette Florian): retired before SS 13
11. 09. 2021 18:56
11. 09. 2021 17:56 CET
12 flash info (20 - Mikkelsen Andreas / Edmondson Elliott): I have tried to drive fast, but not over the limit. Marco is driving very well, but I don't want to risk more than this because we have a championship to think about as well. We should have good tyres for tomorrow.
11. 09. 2021 18:55
11. 09. 2021 17:55 CET
12 flash info (22 - Bulacia Marco / Der Ohannesian Marcelo): I think the feeling was very good. I was enjoying a lot and we were pushing. Tomorrow is still a long day. The morning loop is the longest of the rally, so there is still a lot of kilometres to do.
11. 09. 2021 18:55
11. 09. 2021 17:55 CET
12 flash info (69 - Rovanperä Kalle / Halttunen Jonne): Of course, I am quite happy. I think we did a bit of wrong set-up choice for the afternoon. We changed something to gain a bit of protection and we lost quite a bit of traction. I was pushing here a lot, and the grip was not good. It was not easy, but at least we are at the end of the day and let's see what we can do tomorrow.
11. 09. 2021 18:55
11. 09. 2021 17:55 CET
12 flash info (8 - Tänak Ott / Järveoja Martin): I managed to do some changes which finally helped something. I felt the car a bit more playful now and the tyre choice was good.
11. 09. 2021 18:46
11. 09. 2021 17:46 CET
12 flash info (1 - Ogier Sébastien / Ingrassia Julien): All okay. I think the afternoon loop was good for us. It was a good rhythm, and we are still following our plan. So far, so good.
11. 09. 2021 18:45
11. 09. 2021 17:45 CET
12 flash info (6 - Sordo Dani / Carrera Cándido): I don't know. Honestly, I am a little bit slow, but not that much. We made some changes to the car before to try, but I think it's not working very well.
11. 09. 2021 18:45
11. 09. 2021 17:45 CET
12 flash info (16 - Fourmaux Adrien / Jamoul Renaud): No issues. It was a clean stage for us. It wasn’t the perfect day, but we are learning and taking a lot of experience on this event.
11. 09. 2021 18:44
11. 09. 2021 17:44 CET
12 flash info (44 - Greensmith Gus / Patterson Chris): I just didn't do a good stage. I couldn't find the rhythm on the first pass, and even with the changes I couldn't find a rhythm on the second.
11. 09. 2021 18:44
11. 09. 2021 17:44 CET
12 flash info (33 - Evans Elfyn / Martin Scott): It was quite tricky in places, but it was okay. I got caught out a few times by this very polished clay and lost the rear, but it's all okay.
11. 09. 2021 18:44
11. 09. 2021 17:44 CET
12 flash info (11 - Neuville Thierry / Wydaeghe Martijn): I had a good stage. In the position we are, with our goal to catch the Rally2 cars, I did a good drive. I am happy with that.
11. 09. 2021 18:28
11. 09. 2021 17:28 CET
12 flash info (9 - Serderidis Jourdan / Miclotte Fréderic): It was so fun. The conditions are quite dry, so it's maximum fun. There are so many funny in Greece that love rally, you don't imagine. It's fantastic.
11. 09. 2021 18:27
11. 09. 2021 17:27 CET
12 flash info (7 - Loubet Pierre-Louis / Haut-Labourdette Florian): Unfortunately I lost a bit of time there. I put in my pace notes that it was slippery, but I was surprised even more. It's a bit tricky, this one.
11. 09. 2021 18:23
11. 09. 2021 17:23 CET
11 retired (21 - Østberg Mads / Eriksen Torstein): retired after SS 11
11. 09. 2021 17:30
11. 09. 2021 16:30 CET
11 flash info (69 - Rovanperä Kalle / Halttunen Jonne): Let's see. Not happy with this stage. It was difficult with two spare wheels - a bit more difficult than I was expecting to be honest. In the slow and narrow parts it felt a bit lazy.
11. 09. 2021 17:29
11. 09. 2021 16:29 CET
11 flash info (8 - Tänak Ott / Järveoja Martin): It's okay. I think we had a good tyre choice. It was a little bit on the limit, but we managed okay.
11. 09. 2021 17:29
11. 09. 2021 16:29 CET
11 flash info (1 - Ogier Sébastien / Ingrassia Julien): It's been a good stage. I enjoyed it more than this morning - the grip was more consistent and the car was fun to drive.
11. 09. 2021 17:28
11. 09. 2021 16:28 CET
11 flash info (6 - Sordo Dani / Carrera Cándido): The stage was okay, I didn't take any risks. A little bit better.
11. 09. 2021 17:28
11. 09. 2021 16:28 CET
11 flash info (16 - Fourmaux Adrien / Jamoul Renaud): Honestly, we changed something on the setup during service and it's much better. It was the differentials. It looks to be better, but we need to have a look on the second stage.
11. 09. 2021 17:28
11. 09. 2021 16:28 CET
11 flash info (44 - Greensmith Gus / Patterson Chris): It was quite different to this morning. Kind of slippery in places, but I didn't have the best run. I'm pretty sure softs [tyres] would have been the better option in there.
11. 09. 2021 17:27
11. 09. 2021 16:27 CET
11 flash info (33 - Evans Elfyn / Martin Scott): Pretty tricky now on the hard tyre. It's polished quite a lot now so it's not quite so abrasive and actually really difficult to gain confidence.
11. 09. 2021 17:27
11. 09. 2021 16:27 CET
11 flash info (11 - Neuville Thierry / Wydaeghe Martijn): The stage was drier than expected to be honest. I expected it to be more damp in the last part. I was on a crossed tyre choice and at the end it was overheating a little. Okay, we are here, and one more stage to go.
11. 09. 2021 17:26
11. 09. 2021 16:26 CET
11 flash info (7 - Loubet Pierre-Louis / Haut-Labourdette Florian): It's much better with the grip, so it's much more enjoyable. All the parts where it was muddy are much better.
11. 09. 2021 13:57
11. 09. 2021 12:57 CET
10 Stage is cancelled because of spectators.
11. 09. 2021 13:57
11. 09. 2021 12:57 CET
10 flash info (69 - Rovanperä Kalle / Halttunen Jonne): I feel good. Especially when this was the hardest stage of the loop for me. At the beginning, I didn't have any pace or rhythm, so it was difficult. But after that I managed to find the rhythm a bit and I tried to save the car a bit because it's rough out there. I think this one is going to be rough second time. The first one of the loop will be quite okay, but this will be tough.
11. 09. 2021 13:57
11. 09. 2021 12:57 CET
10 flash info (8 - Tänak Ott / Järveoja Martin): All okay...
11. 09. 2021 13:46
11. 09. 2021 12:46 CET
10 flash info (1 - Ogier Sébastien / Ingrassia Julien): Still tricky. It changed a lot compared to recce. I was hesitating a lot in the stage but so far so good. We are keeping to the plan and trying not to take too much risk.
11. 09. 2021 13:45
11. 09. 2021 12:45 CET
10 flash info (6 - Sordo Dani / Carrera Cándido): The stage is completely different and we tried soft tyres to see what is happening. We are in the middle of nothing and I was driving very bad in this stage.
11. 09. 2021 13:45
11. 09. 2021 12:45 CET
10 flash info (16 - Fourmaux Adrien / Jamoul Renaud): It was really difficult. The grip was changing a lot and I had two hot moments under braking. It's really difficult to have the confidence on these kinds of conditions. I wasn't happy with my pace notes, but I was enjoying also.
11. 09. 2021 13:45
11. 09. 2021 12:45 CET
10 flash info (44 - Greensmith Gus / Patterson Chris): I didn't expect it to be so muddy in places. Two softs [tyres] in there would have been a better option, but I didn't have a good stage in there. I struggled to find the rhythm and I had one big moment. Thankfully there was nothing on the inside, or that would have been a big plane crash.
11. 09. 2021 13:44
11. 09. 2021 12:44 CET
10 flash info (33 - Evans Elfyn / Martin Scott): I didn’t have the best stage to be honest. Very changeable grip, so I probably didn't take the risk needed for a good stage in there.
11. 09. 2021 13:44
11. 09. 2021 12:44 CET
10 flash info (11 - Neuville Thierry / Wydaeghe Martijn): Really inconsistent grip and to be honest I have no lines at all. I don't know what the guys in front are doing, but I can't see any lines and I feel like I am first on the road. I was a bit optimistic and I missed the braking and stalled.
11. 09. 2021 13:44
11. 09. 2021 12:44 CET
10 flash info (9 - Serderidis Jourdan / Miclotte Fréderic): Some muddy parts, but it passed quite fast so it's not really tricky. It's a nice stage - one of the most beautiful ones from my point-of-view.
11. 09. 2021 13:43
11. 09. 2021 12:43 CET
10 flash info (7 - Loubet Pierre-Louis / Haut-Labourdette Florian): You have some parts where it's really easy to do a mistake under braking, and at the end it was very slippery with no grip.
11. 09. 2021 14:05
11. 09. 2021 13:05 CET
9 retired (28 - Solberg Oliver / Johnston Aaron): retired in SS 9
11. 09. 2021 12:42
11. 09. 2021 11:42 CET
9 flash info (69 - Rovanperä Kalle / Halttunen Jonne): The moment was a huge one. I have to say we were lucky to escape and that there was nothing in the ditch. It was maybe a bit too much from the pace notes, I was pushing a bit too much. I tried to be a bit more careful after that.
11. 09. 2021 12:36
11. 09. 2021 11:36 CET
9 flash info (8 - Tänak Ott / Järveoja Martin): This one was quite okay. It's a nice stage.
11. 09. 2021 12:35
11. 09. 2021 11:35 CET
9 flash info (1 - Ogier Sébastien / Ingrassia Julien): The two guys behind have been always faster so far. It's okay at the moment, we keep doing our job. For the championship, it's perfect where we are right now.
11. 09. 2021 12:30
11. 09. 2021 11:30 CET
9 flash info (6 - Sordo Dani / Carrera Cándido): The car was moving a lot from the rear and when I go a bit out of line it's impossible to push the car straight. I don't have the confidence. We are a little bit in the middle of nothing, but I will try to continue to push a bit.

9 flash info (44 - Greensmith Gus / Patterson Chris): It's cleaning, but that's rallying. I had a spin two thirds of the way through the stage - I was too fast in a braking right into a hairpin left. Thankfully I managed to turn it around and only lost maybe three seconds.
11. 09. 2021 12:29
11. 09. 2021 11:29 CET
9 flash info (33 - Evans Elfyn / Martin Scott): It's going to be faster with every car I think. As expected really.
11. 09. 2021 12:29
11. 09. 2021 11:29 CET
9 flash info (11 - Neuville Thierry / Wydaeghe Martijn): Lots of cleaning and a challenging stage. It's quite flowing, but not easy because you are always at high speed and the grip is quite low. I am really only focussing on trying to catch the Rally2 cars to get in the points.

11. 09. 2021 09:59 CET
8 flash info (69 - Rovanperä Kalle / Halttunen Jonne): I am feeling good. It was a nice tyre choice, so thanks to my engineer also because he was supporting me. It was a really difficult two stages - like now when I had the hards on the front, in the mud it was tricky, but I was pushing to try and gain everything I could in the other places.
11. 09. 2021 10:59
11. 09. 2021 09:59 CET
8 flash info (8 - Tänak Ott / Järveoja Martin): It was difficult. In the second part, the grip dropped so much that it made it feel like a puncture, but it's just the surface.
11. 09. 2021 10:59
11. 09. 2021 09:59 CET
8 flash info (1 - Ogier Sébastien / Ingrassia Julien): A difficult stage for me again. I struggled quite a lot with the grip.
11. 09. 2021 10:58
11. 09. 2021 09:58 CET
8 flash info (6 - Sordo Dani / Carrera Cándido): I was trying to be clean because it was really slippery. It's difficult to manage to be clean and brake in the place. I don't know the time. I was feeling okay, but there was no grip at all in the car.
11. 09. 2021 10:58
11. 09. 2021 09:58 CET
8 flash info (16 - Fourmaux Adrien / Jamoul Renaud): I went straight in a barrier in a slow corner, It was quite tight and I just lost the grip. It probably is the same for everybody, but it was really difficult to drive - there is no grip.
11. 09. 2021 10:58
11. 09. 2021 09:58 CET
8 flash info (44 - Greensmith Gus / Patterson Chris): The first half was good, but once we got through the forest section, [the tyres] were gone. The last half of the stage was just purely manic and it was very tricky.
11. 09. 2021 10:57
11. 09. 2021 09:57 CET
8 flash info (33 - Evans Elfyn / Martin Scott): We're obviously trying, but the grip is so, so low. Coming down the hill for the last half, I was really surprised by that.
11. 09. 2021 10:57
11. 09. 2021 09:57 CET
8 flash info (11 - Neuville Thierry / Wydaeghe Martijn): No problem with the dust, but lots of cleaning in the stage. I had to take it with the right approach. Two hard tyres on the car wasn't so good in the beginning, but towards the end it was working a bit better. I just had a clean run, and obviously making the line for the guys behind.
11. 09. 2021 10:57
11. 09. 2021 09:57 CET
8 flash info (7 - Loubet Pierre-Louis / Haut-Labourdette Florian): The grip was better in the previous one, but at the end it was like driving on ice. I had no grip. Very, very difficult at the end.

7 flash info (20 - Mikkelsen Andreas / Edmondson Elliott): It was a nice stage. Enjoyable. Very twisty, but grip was really good. That was good fun.
11. 09. 2021 10:55
11. 09. 2021 09:55 CET
7 flash info (22 - Bulacia Marco / Der Ohannesian Marcelo): It was a clean run. On the last section I don't know if I am too slow. We will see on the times, but I am happy with the car and we need to continue like this.
11. 09. 2021 10:54
11. 09. 2021 09:54 CET
7 flash info (69 - Rovanperä Kalle / Halttunen Jonne): Our tyre package was not the right one for this. In the beginning I could use the hards quite okay, but in the middle and last sections where it was really slow, I was struggling with the hards. I tried to give it a big push and the time looks good, so it's nice.
11. 09. 2021 10:54
11. 09. 2021 09:54 CET
7 flash info (8 - Tänak Ott / Järveoja Martin): Quite surprised at the time. I don't know - I really struggled and was just driving through but obviously it worked. Not a good improvement from yesterday.
11. 09. 2021 10:54
11. 09. 2021 09:54 CET
7 flash info (1 - Ogier Sébastien / Ingrassia Julien): It was pretty damp in this one. The ideal choice would be full softs [tyres] in there for sure, but we don't have many for the rally, so that's the bigger question.
11. 09. 2021 10:54
11. 09. 2021 09:54 CET
7 flash info (6 - Sordo Dani / Carrera Cándido): It's okay. Very difficult at the end of the stage - really slow and it's difficult to keep the rhythm and the car in the line. It's difficult to calculate the speed.
11. 09. 2021 10:51
11. 09. 2021 09:51 CET
7 flash info (16 - Fourmaux Adrien / Jamoul Renaud): It was really difficult. The grip was changing all the time and I didn't take the confidence in the stage. I have never spent so much time in first gear in a stage, so it was really, really slow!
11. 09. 2021 10:51
11. 09. 2021 09:51 CET
7 flash info (44 - Greensmith Gus / Patterson Chris): It seemed better than yesterday. Still not great - in the twisty sections I'm sometimes struggling with the rhythm.
11. 09. 2021 10:51
11. 09. 2021 09:51 CET
7 flash info (11 - Neuville Thierry / Wydaeghe Martijn): The confidence was there yesterday after the problem, but this stage is a never-ending stage. Very twisty and very slow towards the end. I had to choose some hard tyres, which I think is not the best for this kind of stage.
11. 09. 2021 10:50
11. 09. 2021 09:50 CET
7 flash info (7 - Loubet Pierre-Louis / Haut-Labourdette Florian): It was quite okay in some parts, but the middle of the stage is like ice. It's very easy to do a mistake.
11. 09. 2021 10:49
11. 09. 2021 09:49 CET
7 It's a pleasant, although slightly cloudy start to the day here in Lamia with temperatures of around 17°C. Reports from SS7 say conditions are dry, whilst SS8 is looking quite muddy.

10. 09. 2021 18:54 CET
6 flash info (11 - Neuville Thierry / Wydaeghe Martijn): We had a bad day. Nothing was working - lots of problems and issues. I am really proud of the job I have done to fix the car and get it going again. I think I got a red flag from the marshal before Loubet went off. It was difficult to see with lots of spectators around. We stopped to check they were okay and they should be coming soon.

6 flash info (16 - Fourmaux Adrien / Jamoul Renaud): I am struggling with the set-up since the issue on the first stage. It's been quite a strong day, we had no issues with the car. We just need to find different setups for different stages. It's not easy, but it's good knowledge for me.
10. 09. 2021 19:52
10. 09. 2021 18:52 CET
6 flash info (6 - Sordo Dani / Carrera Cándido): It was okay. A good day with no drama, so it's fine. This stage was not so good, so I think the time is bad. Tomorrow is a long day and it's all okay.
10. 09. 2021 19:52
10. 09. 2021 18:52 CET
6 flash info (33 - Evans Elfyn / Martin Scott): There's not a lot somebody can do when it's like this. We tried everything we can, but unfortunately it's like it is today. Now we can get back to the service park and sort it for tomorrow.
10. 09. 2021 19:51
10. 09. 2021 18:51 CET
6 flash info (44 - Greensmith Gus / Patterson Chris): It's not been a good day at the office, and I think the damper has lost all its oil in that one as well. Glad to see the end of the day and we'll go again for tomorrow.
10. 09. 2021 19:51
10. 09. 2021 18:51 CET
6 flash info (8 - Tänak Ott / Järveoja Martin): Today I really struggled. I tried really hard on this one but I had no feeling - I can't go through the whole rally like this. It's difficult, but I will keep pushing.
10. 09. 2021 19:51
10. 09. 2021 18:51 CET
6 flash info (69 - Rovanperä Kalle / Halttunen Jonne): The feeling is quite okay. Hopefully the time is good, and let's see what we can do for tomorrow. I think we need to change the set-up a bit.
10. 09. 2021 19:50
10. 09. 2021 18:50 CET
6 flash info (1 - Ogier Sébastien / Ingrassia Julien): I think I can be really happy with this day, I did everything I could and we managed to stay out of trouble. It's been a really good day. This one was pretty loose and the profile is really fast, but hopefully it won't cost us too much time.

10. 09. 2021 18:49 CET
5 flash info (22 - Bulacia Marco / Der Ohannesian Marcelo): It's good. I thought we were going to be slower because I was struggling a lot to find the right technique for this stage because it's very different compared to the other ones.
10. 09. 2021 19:49
10. 09. 2021 18:49 CET
5 flash info (11 - Neuville Thierry / Wydaeghe Martijn): Fix is a big word, but at least it's driveable! The pipe was broken. I was able to glue it, but still we have to refill oil every time and we couldn't do it in one. It's not easy - some electrical issues make it even more difficult.
10. 09. 2021 19:49
10. 09. 2021 18:49 CET
5 flash info (7 - Loubet Pierre-Louis / Haut-Labourdette Florian): We had two slow punctures and I have no spare wheel, so I was careful.
10. 09. 2021 19:49
10. 09. 2021 18:49 CET
5 flash info (16 - Fourmaux Adrien / Jamoul Renaud): It wasn’t too bad, but I had some understeer in the dirty parts. On the dry, it was better with the hard [compound tyres]. I was a bit careful in some places, but it's not a bad stage and for sure I was enjoying a lot.
10. 09. 2021 19:48
10. 09. 2021 18:48 CET
5 flash info (6 - Sordo Dani / Carrera Cándido): It's a little bit strange because some places you have a lot of grip where it is wet, but when it is like this there's no grip at all. The time is not so bad but I was not really happy.
10. 09. 2021 19:48
10. 09. 2021 18:48 CET

10. 09. 2021 19:48
10. 09. 2021 18:48 CET
5 flash info (44 - Greensmith Gus / Patterson Chris): I had a spin quite early on. I turned in a bit too early and it just pulled me round. Not a good stage, and I think I had a rear left puncture at the end.
10. 09. 2021 19:47
10. 09. 2021 18:47 CET
5 flash info (8 - Tänak Ott / Järveoja Martin): I am just really struggling with the car, no feeling at all. I am doing my best but it's not so enjoyable.
10. 09. 2021 19:47
10. 09. 2021 18:47 CET
5 flash info (69 - Rovanperä Kalle / Halttunen Jonne): I am not surprised to be honest. I can't remember when I have been driving in this difficult conditions on a normal gravel road. The grip was so high in many places that my car just couldn't turn enough.
10. 09. 2021 19:47
10. 09. 2021 18:47 CET
5 flash info (1 - Ogier Sébastien / Ingrassia Julien): A few hours before, it would have been really good to be in front [on the road], but now unfortunately it has dried out too much. I struggled with the car - the grip was inconsistent.

10. 09. 2021 13:22 CET
4 flash info (16 - Fourmaux Adrien / Jamoul Renaud): It was really tough. It was really rough, so some places we were enjoying, but I would say 75 per cent was really hard. It's part of the rally and it's what were expecting coming here.
10. 09. 2021 14:22
10. 09. 2021 13:22 CET

10. 09. 2021 13:05 CET
4 flash info (69 - Rovanperä Kalle / Halttunen Jonne): It's okay. Even though it's the second loop, there is quite a lot of cleaning after the small cars. I tried to follow Seb's line, but it's not so easy all the time. A clean run.

10. 09. 2021 12:30 CET
3 flash info (7 - Loubet Pierre-Louis / Haut-Labourdette Florian): In a big compression, I had a hard point but nothing big. I think one [spare tyre] was enough.
10. 09. 2021 13:29
10. 09. 2021 12:29 CET
3 flash info (6 - Sordo Dani / Carrera Cándido): Maybe the road was cleaning a little bit more. I was pushing too much maybe in the first stage. We need to keep going and everything will become better.
10. 09. 2021 13:29
10. 09. 2021 12:29 CET
3 flash info (44 - Greensmith Gus / Patterson Chris): It's the same here. I could have dealt with it a bit better on the first one and I tried to deal with it here. The rear is hard to keep in a straight line, but I'm doing the best I can.
10. 09. 2021 13:29
10. 09. 2021 12:29 CET
3 flash info (8 - Tänak Ott / Järveoja Martin): In the twisty sections, the engine is stalling as normal. I struggled to manage it, and also the damper feels it is overheating a bit, so it's quite difficult to drive at the moment.

10. 09. 2021 12:28 CET

10. 09. 2021 13:28
10. 09. 2021 12:28 CET

10. 09. 2021 13:28
10. 09. 2021 12:28 CET
3 flash info (11 - Neuville Thierry / Wydaeghe Martijn): I did my best. I am not 100 per cent confident with the behaviour of the car. Sometimes I lose the rear and sometimes I lose the front. We did some changes and it felt a little bit better, but it’s not enough.
10. 09. 2021 13:28

10. 09. 2021 12:26 CET
2 flash info (7 - Loubet Pierre-Louis / Haut-Labourdette Florian): It was okay, it was a nice one so we will continue and try to enjoy. I think we have to be a bit more harder with the setup.

10. 09. 2021 12:26 CET
2 flash info (16 - Fourmaux Adrien / Jamoul Renaud): It's rough in the stage. You really need a tidy drive, but I was struggling a bit with the set-up. I hope we will find something for the next stage.
10. 09. 2021 13:26
10. 09. 2021 12:26 CET
2 flash info (6 - Sordo Dani / Carrera Cándido): All good. It's very slippery, it's not cleaning that much. For me, we could use soft tyres here, but we don't have a lot of soft tyres.
10. 09. 2021 13:25
10. 09. 2021 12:25 CET
2 flash info (44 - Greensmith Gus / Patterson Chris): There wasn't much grip and the second spare [wheel] was tricky. I couldn't find a rhythm and I just couldn't keep a clean line. Not a good stage.
10. 09. 2021 13:25
10. 09. 2021 12:25 CET
2 flash info (8 - Tänak Ott / Järveoja Martin): A clean stage, no troubles. Next time it will probably be a bit more rough, so we will need to adjust the setup for sure.

10. 09. 2021 12:25 CET
2 flash info (69 - Rovanperä Kalle / Halttunen Jonne): It was okay. Tricky conditions with the grip with this tyre. I still have to think how to drive with the car and the tyre and not use it too much. Let's see how the tyre wear is and see how we are.

2 flash info (11 - Neuville Thierry / Wydaeghe Martijn): I wasn't very confident, and I was losing the rear quite a lot. I missed a bit of speed, I could feel it in the stage. We are carrying two spare wheels and it's very twisty in there and the grip is quite low, so the car was sliding quite a lot.

2 flash info (33 - Evans Elfyn / Martin Scott): Pretty low grip to be honest. It was not so easy to follow Seb's lines either, they were quite faint.

2 flash info (1 - Ogier Sébastien / Ingrassia Julien): Extremely slippery. I did everything I can, but unfortunately I think it will be very costly in time.

1 flash info (11 - Neuville Thierry / Wydaeghe Martijn): We have seen a lot of different conditions during recce, but it will be a tough event for man and material. We need to keep it clean and tidy. We are looking forward for the fight and we enjoyed that stage. It's good to see the people back.

1 flash info (8 - Tänak Ott / Järveoja Martin): The roads at the first day on the recce were incredible. It was difficult to see the nice roads as the weather was tricky. It will be a big challenge.

1 flash info (16 - Fourmaux Adrien / Jamoul Renaud): We have a lot of spectators, so it's really nice. It was a bit too short, but still enjoyable! The biggest challenge tomorrow will be to play with the road conditions. I think the most difficult will be Saturday and Sunday.

1 flash info (21 - Østberg Mads / Eriksen Torstein): It's really great to be back to a big city and I always enjoy that. I tried to be clean and fast but entertaining. I think the rally has changed a lot. Friday is similar to what we have seen in the past, but Saturday and Sunday is like a new rally. We will see during the weekend, but I am looking forward to it.

09. 09. 2021 13:05 CET
SHAKEDOWN flash info (28 - Solberg Oliver / Johnston Aaron): It's very slippery, but in the beginning there was more grip than I expected so I took it a little bit careful. It's okay, it's good fun. It will be a very slow rally if it's as slippery as it is now.
09. 09. 2021 14:05
09. 09. 2021 13:05 CET
SHAKEDOWN flash info (23 - Gryazin Nikolay / Aleksandrov Konstantin): It feels good, but in one hairpin we stalled the engine, so it took me some seconds to recover again. It's okay, we just need to get used to driving this car - it's absolutely new for me.

09. 09. 2021 13:04 CET

SHAKEDOWN flash info (7 - Loubet Pierre-Louis / Haut-Labourdette Florian): It's not what we expect, but let's see. If it's like this it will be tricky, but it was not so much rough - I expected it to be worse.

09. 09. 2021 13:04 CET
SHAKEDOWN flash info (6 - Sordo Dani / Carrera Cándido): It was in some places really bad and we had a small issue when we left service, but it's all good. The conditions are not like normal in Greece but it's like it is.

09. 09. 2021 13:04 CET
SHAKEDOWN flash info (16 - Fourmaux Adrien / Jamoul Renaud): It's not what we really expected coming into this. I wasn't taking any risks on this run. We have to find a way because the conditions will be always changing in different stages, so we have to find a set-up. It will be challenging for sure.

09. 09. 2021 13:03 CET
SHAKEDOWN flash info (44 - Greensmith Gus / Patterson Chris): I didn't see much of the recce - there was bit too much fog for that! There was a bit more grip than I expected there to be, even on the hard tyres.

09. 09. 2021 13:03 CET

09. 09. 2021 13:03 CET
SHAKEDOWN flash info (11 - Neuville Thierry / Wydaeghe Martijn): I am happy to be here, but we didn't expect those conditions to come here. It was an awful recce, but we have to see now. The weather could improve a little bit and maybe we will get a bit more normal conditions for the rally.
09. 09. 2021 14:02
09. 09. 2021 13:02 CET
SHAKEDOWN flash info (33 - Evans Elfyn / Martin Scott): It's very different mud to what we get at home in Wales. It's not so easy. We have to have a good weekend and try our best, so let's see what happens.

09. 09. 2021 13:02 CET
SHAKEDOWN flash info (1 - Ogier Sébastien / Ingrassia Julien): Like you see, it looks more like Wales here! It's not like expected - I was trying to judge the grip because obviously we haven't tested for those conditions.
