23. 05. 2021 13:22
23. 05. 2021 14:22 CET 		20 flash info (33 - Evans Elfyn / Martin Scott): It feels good! We perhaps weren't the fastest crew this weekend, but we had really good pace and kept out of trouble and obviously did enough to keep Dani at bay today. It comes at a good time, so I'm happy to take this one.
23. 05. 2021 13:19
23. 05. 2021 14:19 CET 		20 flash info (6 - Sordo Dani / Rozada Borja): I am so happy to come back with second place. I was disappointed not to catch Elfyn today, but he was faster, and when you are faster you win. I am very happy to finish, to give some points for the manufacturers' championship, but also to take podium with Borja Rozada on our first event.
23. 05. 2021 13:15
23. 05. 2021 14:15 CET 		20 flash info (1 - Ogier Sébastien / Ingrassia Julien): I always take as maximum as I can, so let's see what Elfyn is doing. No one wants to open the road in Sardinia, but let's see what happens. It hasn't been a very pleasant weekend for us, but from a points point-of-view, it's okay.
23. 05. 2021 13:11
23. 05. 2021 14:11 CET 		20 flash info (18 - Katsuta Takamoto / Barritt Daniel): Definitely, I stepped forward compared to before. I enjoyed the rally except from today, but this is part of the game. Let's see, I will try to improve on the next one, and we will see in Sardinia. The team are working very, very hard as always.
23. 05. 2021 13:06
23. 05. 2021 14:06 CET 		20 flash info (44 - Greensmith Gus / Patterson Chris): Things look good going forwards. It's been a good weekend, we've had some issues, but in terms of the pace and performance, I am really happy. Let's keep it going.
23. 05. 2021 13:06
23. 05. 2021 14:06 CET 		20 flash info (16 - Fourmaux Adrien / Jamoul Renaud): I didn't want to push in this stage and our tyres are also dead. It was a good weekend for me - it was interesting to open the road yesterday, and it was really good learning with the car. I am really happy, the car was good, and I can only say thank you to M-Sport for the opportunity.
23. 05. 2021 13:06
23. 05. 2021 14:06 CET 		20 flash info (8 - Tänak Ott / Järveoja Martin): I don't know what is the difference. It was a good feeling to be back on the pace yesterday. It's almost there, but it seems like we need to wait for another time.
23. 05. 2021 13:05
23. 05. 2021 14:05 CET 		20 flash info (69 - Rovanperä Kalle / Halttunen Jonne): I don't have anything good to say about this weekend. It was a difficult one. Yesterday, with the technical issue, all our hopes for the points finish were gone. Of course, on the first loop, I was always driving like my grandma. Well, my grandma would be faster! We have to really get our heads together and start being fast again.
23. 05. 2021 12:48
23. 05. 2021 13:48 CET 		20 flash info (11 - Neuville Thierry / Wydaeghe Martijn): I can't do more. Maybe the car was moving a little too much at some points, but I tried to keep the rhythm. I don't know if it was a good time or if I was over-driving, but It was quite efficient.
23. 05. 2021 12:45
23. 05. 2021 13:45 CET 		20 flash info (22 - Lappi Esapekka / Ferm Janne): It was really a strong rally from us and our team did an amazing job. We didn't have any problems with the car and on such a rough rally like this, it's very cool. I am very satisfied.
23. 05. 2021 12:41
23. 05. 2021 13:41 CET 		20 flash info (24 - Suninen Teemu / Markkula Mikko): The result is really good. I am happy that we survived and brought the car home, and we can be happy for second position.
23. 05. 2021 12:40
23. 05. 2021 13:40 CET 		20 flash info (23 - Østberg Mads / Eriksen Torstein): We never gave up for sure, we were pushing all the way, and we have been experimenting a little bit. We know Sardinia is coming quickly, and we have one week to be at our best. We have made some steps, but we have some thinking to do ahead of next week. It's a shame about the puncture on Friday which didn't allow us to fight, but at least we proved our speed.
23. 05. 2021 12:39
23. 05. 2021 13:39 CET 		20 flash info (25 - Gryazin Nikolay / Aleksandrov Konstantin): In some stages, we were are trying to improve but the time is not good, so we still have things to work on. I am quite happy that we finished. In this stage I was in safe mode and not pushing at all.
23. 05. 2021 12:39
23. 05. 2021 13:39 CET 		20 flash info (30 - Solberg Oliver / Johnston Aaron): It's been very good fun. A very difficult event, with a lot to take in with the new car on gravel. There has been a lot of work to get better and better, and the pace has been good to show the speed. Today, I have just been taking it easy after intercom problems in the morning. I wanted to save some tyres for this stage, but my rear tyres were gone a long time ago.
23. 05. 2021 12:10
23. 05. 2021 13:10 CET 		20 Starting order: Solberg, Gryazin, Østberg, Suninen, Lappi, Neuville, Rovanperä, Tänak, Fourmaux, Greensmith, Katsuta, Ogier, Sordo, Evans
23. 05. 2021 12:21
23. 05. 2021 13:21 CET 		19 retired (84 - García Delbin / Barroso Coral): retired in SS 19
23. 05. 2021 11:26
23. 05. 2021 12:26 CET 		18 retired (43 - Magalhães Bruno / Magalhães Carlos): retired after SS 18
23. 05. 2021 11:24
23. 05. 2021 12:24 CET 		18 flash info (25 - Gryazin Nikolay / Aleksandrov Konstantin): I don't think it will be possible to catch Østberg. On this stage we really struggled - I think it's related to the rear tyres, it just snaps a lot. Let's see what we can do on the next one.
23. 05. 2021 11:24
23. 05. 2021 12:24 CET 		18 flash info (23 - Østberg Mads / Eriksen Torstein): We are doing our best, but I don't feel comfortable. We are still playing with the settings and trying to get into the frame of the car, but we are still outside to be honest. I am not too happy, it frustrates me a little bit. Okay, the pace is not bad, but it could be a lot better.
23. 05. 2021 11:23
23. 05. 2021 12:23 CET 		18 flash info (24 - Suninen Teemu / Markkula Mikko): It was slippery. We had to put two hard tyres on - we have to do what we have to do.
23. 05. 2021 11:23
23. 05. 2021 12:23 CET 		18 flash info (22 - Lappi Esapekka / Ferm Janne): Really nice. The grip was a bit higher than I expected, so I could really enjoy it.
23. 05. 2021 11:23
23. 05. 2021 12:23 CET 		18 flash info (33 - Evans Elfyn / Martin Scott): So far so good. The first one this morning was a fairly interesting stage, but things are working okay so we're happy enough.
23. 05. 2021 11:23
23. 05. 2021 12:23 CET 		18 flash info (6 - Sordo Dani / Rozada Borja): I am not really happy with our time in the first stage. The second stage we tried to push, but the car was moving a lot from the rear. It's so difficult to drive - there is no grip at all, I can't do anything. It's like this.
23. 05. 2021 11:22
23. 05. 2021 12:22 CET 		18 flash info (1 - Ogier Sébastien / Ingrassia Julien): I am saving the tyres, so we will see when it comes to the power stage. It's always the target to take as much points as we can.
23. 05. 2021 11:22
23. 05. 2021 12:22 CET 		18 flash info (18 - Katsuta Takamoto / Barritt Daniel): Just safely through. I don't know what I can do in the power stage, but I tried to find some improvements for the future.
23. 05. 2021 11:22
23. 05. 2021 12:22 CET 		18 flash info (44 - Greensmith Gus / Patterson Chris): It's so slippery - I felt like I was stopping the car in places and I just didn't feel like I was carrying the speed, so I've got some work to do in there. Everything is nice and calm and relaxed.
23. 05. 2021 11:22
23. 05. 2021 12:22 CET 		18 flash info (16 - Fourmaux Adrien / Jamoul Renaud): It's really good. I am struggling with my tyres today and we tried something different, but I think it didn't work. It's part of the game and it's our first time here.
23. 05. 2021 11:21
23. 05. 2021 12:21 CET 		18 flash info (8 - Tänak Ott / Järveoja Martin): Hopefully we can enjoy next time. We need to try, so we will try.
23. 05. 2021 11:21
23. 05. 2021 12:21 CET 		18 flash info (69 - Rovanperä Kalle / Halttunen Jonne): It was quite tricky. It was really good grip on the stage, much more than I was expecting, so I was not pushing so hard. It's going to be a tricky power stage.
23. 05. 2021 11:20
23. 05. 2021 12:20 CET 		18 flash info (11 - Neuville Thierry / Wydaeghe Martijn): It was a high-speed recce, but a lot of cleaning for the first pass. The second pass should be better.
23. 05. 2021 11:19
23. 05. 2021 12:19 CET 		16 (24 - Suninen Teemu / Markkula Mikko): spun
23. 05. 2021 11:19
23. 05. 2021 12:19 CET 		16 flash info (33 - Evans Elfyn / Martin Scott): It was quite a big push. It was tricky in there - not as much grip as we expected and it's quite a hard surface. Happy enough with that.
23. 05. 2021 11:19
23. 05. 2021 12:19 CET 		16 flash info (6 - Sordo Dani / Rozada Borja): I am not happy. There was some mistakes - it's really a tricky stage. I don't want to make a mistake, but at the same time I want to keep the pressure there.
23. 05. 2021 11:18
23. 05. 2021 12:18 CET 		16 flash info (1 - Ogier Sébastien / Ingrassia Julien): It's a tricky stage. I was not really pushing and there is a lot of negative camber in the stage, so it's very easy to lose the car.
23. 05. 2021 11:18
23. 05. 2021 12:18 CET 		16 flash info (18 - Katsuta Takamoto / Barritt Daniel): It's just a tricky stage and slippery. Not good driving.
23. 05. 2021 11:18
23. 05. 2021 12:18 CET 		16 flash info (16 - Fourmaux Adrien / Jamoul Renaud): This stage is really nice - it's like skiing to be honest! It was a clean drive for myself, but I am struggling a lot with my tyres. I think they are just dead now, so it will be a long day.
23. 05. 2021 11:18
23. 05. 2021 12:18 CET 		16 flash info (8 - Tänak Ott / Järveoja Martin): It's just driving through at the moment. It's a bit lighter the helmet - so power stage spec!
23. 05. 2021 11:17
23. 05. 2021 12:17 CET 		16 flash info (69 - Rovanperä Kalle / Halttunen Jonne): I am trying something on the suspension and geometry of the car. On this, I just put the hard tyres across to save the soft. I had to drive this quite slowly.
22. 05. 2021 20:23
22. 05. 2021 21:23 CET 		15 flash info (24 - Suninen Teemu / Markkula Mikko): It's been a great day. A bit shame because we got a puncture on one tyre and it was tricky to manage to the end of the loop.
22. 05. 2021 20:22
22. 05. 2021 21:22 CET 		15 flash info (22 - Lappi Esapekka / Ferm Janne): You do so many donuts! It's five years since I have done donuts with this kind of car. There is all this concrete, so if you do a mistake you have to keep that in mind.
22. 05. 2021 20:22
22. 05. 2021 21:22 CET 		15 flash info (33 - Evans Elfyn / Martin Scott): It feels pretty good. I am shocked that Dani has gone so strong in there! Let's see tomorrow, it's still a tricky day, but today went pretty well.
22. 05. 2021 20:22
22. 05. 2021 21:22 CET 		15 flash info (6 - Sordo Dani / Rozada Borja): I didn't want to lose the engine because I had some problems. I had a good feeling and I tried to do as much as I could. My hours in karting are paying off now!
22. 05. 2021 20:22
22. 05. 2021 21:22 CET 		15 flash info (18 - Katsuta Takamoto / Barritt Daniel): I am pretty happy. It was a very tough day and I had some moments, but I am here and that is the biggest thing. I made a bit of work for the team guys today - so thank you guys and I will see you tomorrow.
22. 05. 2021 20:21
22. 05. 2021 21:21 CET 		15 flash info (1 - Ogier Sébastien / Ingrassia Julien): Tomorrow is important. It was a difficult day for us.

22. 05. 2021 21:20 CET 		15 (1 - Ogier Sébastien / Ingrassia Julien): spun
22. 05. 2021 20:20
22. 05. 2021 21:20 CET 		15 flash info (44 - Greensmith Gus / Patterson Chris): Extremely, extremely disappointing. What can I do? We will try and get the time back tomorrow.
22. 05. 2021 20:20
22. 05. 2021 21:20 CET 		15 flash info (16 - Fourmaux Adrien / Jamoul Renaud): It's really nice because we are just on the edge of the sea, and we can see the view! It's always difficult because we are fighting in the long stages. I would say it was a good learning to be opening the road, but for sure we have lost a bit of time opening the road for the other drivers.

22. 05. 2021 18:55
22. 05. 2021 19:55 CET 		14 flash info (6 - Sordo Dani / Rozada Borja): I just pushed. Elfyn is going really fast. Honestly, I tried, but I can't.
22. 05. 2021 18:55
22. 05. 2021 19:55 CET 		14 flash info (18 - Katsuta Takamoto / Barritt Daniel): On a tight left corner, there was some bedrock on the ground and I went wide. There was a tree, and I slightly hit the tree. Luckily we could survive.
22. 05. 2021 18:55
22. 05. 2021 19:55 CET 		14 flash info (1 - Ogier Sébastien / Ingrassia Julien): Tomorrow is a long day. We decided to save our soft tyres for tomorrow, and Katsuta didn't, so let's see.
22. 05. 2021 17:27
22. 05. 2021 18:27 CET 		14 flash info (44 - Greensmith Gus / Patterson Chris): We know what the issue is, but there's nothing I can do about it. When it comes on, it's on - when it goes off, it's off. We've still got tomorrow to have a bit of fun.
22. 05. 2021 17:25
22. 05. 2021 18:25 CET 		14 flash info (16 - Fourmaux Adrien / Jamoul Renaud): It was the most difficult stage of the rally. With the line, it is really difficult because the wheels are always in the loose. I am learning, and it's interesting to find something to improve the pace, even in these conditions.
22. 05. 2021 17:18
22. 05. 2021 18:18 CET 		13 retired (69 - Rovanperä Kalle / Halttunen Jonne): technical problem after SS 13
22. 05. 2021 17:04
22. 05. 2021 18:04 CET 		12 retired (63 - Koči Martin / Těšínský Petr): technical problem - driveshaft in SS 12
22. 05. 2021 16:53
22. 05. 2021 17:53 CET 		12 flash info (30 - Solberg Oliver / Johnston Aaron): Not bad now. It helps when you know the road - you can go as fast as the others. As long as the tyres are fine, I am happy. The car should handle it.
22. 05. 2021 16:53
22. 05. 2021 17:53 CET 		12 flash info (24 - Suninen Teemu / Markkula Mikko): It's okay. It's getting crazy now - it's a little bit rough and we need to get through without problems.
22. 05. 2021 16:53
22. 05. 2021 17:53 CET 		12 flash info (22 - Lappi Esapekka / Ferm Janne): Clearly some sections and corners are drier than this morning, and some are more rutted. There is some bedrocks on the ruts - nothing crazy huge - but it's fine.
22. 05. 2021 16:52
22. 05. 2021 17:52 CET 		12 flash info (8 - Tänak Ott / Järveoja Martin): The stages are a bit rough, so for sure, this will keep us awake. It was a clean run and that's all we need at the moment.
22. 05. 2021 16:52
22. 05. 2021 17:52 CET 		12 flash info (33 - Evans Elfyn / Martin Scott): The feeling was pretty okay. We had mixed tyres on the car and tried to be as clean and as fast as possible.
22. 05. 2021 16:52
22. 05. 2021 17:52 CET 		12 flash info (6 - Sordo Dani / Rozada Borja): I don't know. One time I thought I was punctured. Let's see.
22. 05. 2021 16:52
22. 05. 2021 17:52 CET 		12 flash info (18 - Katsuta Takamoto / Barritt Daniel): It's okay, nothing special. I am not so confident in my driving and pace notes on this one. I took it easy on this one and next I will try to take a good time again. Let's see.
22. 05. 2021 16:51
22. 05. 2021 17:51 CET 		12 flash info (1 - Ogier Sébastien / Ingrassia Julien): It's a bit more rough than the morning. It's okay, we have a mixed tyre choice like most of the drivers. The only problem is now we are quite far from the podium.
22. 05. 2021 16:51
22. 05. 2021 17:51 CET 		12 flash info (69 - Rovanperä Kalle / Halttunen Jonne): The balance is always quite okay when it's the second loop and we have grip. There is some cleaning at the end of the second loop for sure, but it's okay.
22. 05. 2021 16:50
22. 05. 2021 17:50 CET 		12 flash info (44 - Greensmith Gus / Patterson Chris): We decided to take a bit of a gamble with the tyres. It looks risky, but I do believe I can make it work. Everything is going to plan so far - I am trying.
22. 05. 2021 16:50
22. 05. 2021 17:50 CET 		12 flash info (16 - Fourmaux Adrien / Jamoul Renaud): I would say we are using less the tyres compared to the other drivers. We chose a soft tyre choice, but let's see if it works or not for us.

22. 05. 2021 15:17 CET 		11 flash info (22 - Lappi Esapekka / Ferm Janne): At least I could watch the spectators - when you have a very steep uphill and a limited amount of power, it's slowly climbing.
22. 05. 2021 14:17
22. 05. 2021 15:17 CET 		11 flash info (8 - Tänak Ott / Järveoja Martin): The first loop has been quite okay. I tried to be very, very smooth on this one and so far the feeling is okay.
22. 05. 2021 14:16
22. 05. 2021 15:16 CET 		11 flash info (33 - Evans Elfyn / Martin Scott): I never did so well in this stage in the past, so I tried to focus on being quite clean. It seemed to be working better at least.
22. 05. 2021 14:16
22. 05. 2021 15:16 CET 		11 flash info (6 - Sordo Dani / Rozada Borja): We are very close in all the stages, and it's fun. It's difficult in this stage with the tyres, I think I lost a bit of time in a couple of places. It's not so bad.
22. 05. 2021 14:15
22. 05. 2021 15:15 CET 		11 flash info (11 - Neuville Thierry / Wydaeghe Martijn): We have some issues, and we couldn't solve them. We decided to keep going but it didn't sound so good.
22. 05. 2021 14:15
22. 05. 2021 15:15 CET 		11 flash info (18 - Katsuta Takamoto / Barritt Daniel): I tried to save the tyre on the Tarmac sections. The rhythm has changed and I am losing a lot of time, so not good driving. I am trying to survive this day, but otherwise it's quite okay.
22. 05. 2021 14:15
22. 05. 2021 15:15 CET 		11 flash info (1 - Ogier Sébastien / Ingrassia Julien): The morning has not been good for me. In the two first stages, I did not have the pace I wanted to have. We made some mistakes with our choices this morning, but we will keep fighting.
22. 05. 2021 14:14
22. 05. 2021 15:14 CET 		11 flash info (69 - Rovanperä Kalle / Halttunen Jonne): I think it's cleaning quite a lot. With three plus one tyre it's never easy to drive, but I tried.

22. 05. 2021 15:14 CET 		11 flash info (44 - Greensmith Gus / Patterson Chris): I missed the braking by maybe 20 or 30 metres, but I buried the throttle and got away with it. I had a few issues with basically having to stop the car, so hopefully we can fix those in service. I can't press the throttle.

22. 05. 2021 15:12 CET 		10 flash info (6 - Sordo Dani / Rozada Borja): I was really bad with the tyres. I kept the soft tyres and it was a big mistake. I was feeling I was working the tyres very hard and I was a little bit scared now.

22. 05. 2021 15:12 CET 		10 flash info (18 - Katsuta Takamoto / Barritt Daniel): This one, I had a better feeling in the car. We changed a bit on the car set-up wise, and it worked well. No big risks, but still a good speed.

22. 05. 2021 15:11 CET 		10 flash info (69 - Rovanperä Kalle / Halttunen Jonne): It's not the best tyre choice. The guys with the full softs behind will be much faster. We didn't have any softs left from yesterday, so we had to save one tyre for tomorrow. Not the easiest one, but it's okay.
22. 05. 2021 14:10

22. 05. 2021 14:09
22. 05. 2021 15:09 CET 		10 flash info (11 - Neuville Thierry / Wydaeghe Martijn): It was really horrible. The car was undriveable - I think we have to check because we were sliding everywhere - there might be an issue.
22. 05. 2021 14:09
22. 05. 2021 15:09 CET 		9 flash info (25 - Gryazin Nikolay / Aleksandrov Konstantin): We have some issue with the turbo. I don't know - we are not losing too much power, but we need to check it. The strategy is quite difficult.

22. 05. 2021 14:08
22. 05. 2021 15:08 CET 		9 flash info (33 - Evans Elfyn / Martin Scott): All feeling okay. It's a bit mixed in there and the balance is changing all the time with the grip levels. Overall, it was an okay run.
22. 05. 2021 14:08
22. 05. 2021 15:08 CET 		9 flash info (6 - Sordo Dani / Rozada Borja): In the middle of the stage I was a little bit lost because it was foggy. I had some small mistakes in really fast places with the pace notes, but I pushed to the maximum after that.
22. 05. 2021 14:08
22. 05. 2021 15:08 CET 		9 flash info (18 - Katsuta Takamoto / Barritt Daniel): It's okay - of course he Ogier is seven-times world champion! Very hard and a lot slippier than I expected. I tried to stay on the line and avoid mistakes, but I obviously did it a bit carefully.
22. 05. 2021 14:07
22. 05. 2021 15:07 CET 		9 flash info (1 - Ogier Sébastien / Ingrassia Julien): Pretty slippery. I didn't feel super comfortable. I was missing grip, but I guess it's the same for everybody. We need to see if we can do anything with the car.

22. 05. 2021 15:06 CET 		9 flash info (11 - Neuville Thierry / Wydaeghe Martijn): I am with the hard compound tyres, so it's really slippery. I want to save my soft tyres for tomorrow.

21. 05. 2021 20:56 CET 		8 flash info (6 - Sordo Dani / Rozada Borja): I didn't push in here and in the stage before. I got a puncture on the motorway, and now I only have one for the way back to the service park. I don't want any more punctures.

21. 05. 2021 19:55
21. 05. 2021 20:55 CET 		8 flash info (16 - Fourmaux Adrien / Jamoul Renaud): In this stage, the feeling is really good with all the fans, but it was bad driving from my side. Let's see tomorrow.
21. 05. 2021 19:55
21. 05. 2021 20:55 CET 		8 flash info (44 - Greensmith Gus / Patterson Chris): I think as soon as Chris Patterson came into the car, he showed me the areas I needed to change. We have worked really hard and the progression has been a lot quicker than I expected it to be. I've enjoyed, but it's a shame about the puncture.
21. 05. 2021 19:55
21. 05. 2021 20:55 CET 		8 flash info (35 - Kajetanowicz Kajetan / Szczepaniak Maciej): It was a nice day. As I said, really exciting.

21. 05. 2021 19:54
21. 05. 2021 20:54 CET 		8 flash info (32 - Rossel Yohan / Coria Alexandre): It's a big fight with Kajto and all the other drivers, but tomorrow is a long day - I think it's a marathon. Today was a good day for me - I need to work on the car for tomorrow - the slow corners are not easy.
21. 05. 2021 19:54
21. 05. 2021 20:54 CET 		8 flash info (38 - Ingram Chris / Whittock Ross): That was so much fun!

21. 05. 2021 19:54
21. 05. 2021 20:54 CET 		8 flash info (34 - Ciamin Nicolas / Roche Yannick): There is a lot of fans here, and it's nice to see them back on the stages also. It's been a very difficult day and very long - the last stage especially difficult. Tomorrow will be another really tough day I guess.
21. 05. 2021 19:54
21. 05. 2021 20:54 CET 		8 flash info (25 - Gryazin Nikolay / Aleksandrov Konstantin): Tomorrow I think it depends. We need to count the tyres because it is quite difficult, and on Sunday also.
21. 05. 2021 19:53
21. 05. 2021 20:53 CET 		8 flash info (22 - Lappi Esapekka / Ferm Janne): It's always nice to have a battle inside the team, and nice to see some audience. In the Arctic, I didn't see and last year I didn't see so much audience. It's so nice to see people.

21. 05. 2021 19:53
21. 05. 2021 20:53 CET 		8 flash info (30 - Solberg Oliver / Johnston Aaron): I won it! It was good fun - I tried to put on a show. It was not easy and very slippery - I made two or three mistakes. It was very good.
21. 05. 2021 19:17
21. 05. 2021 20:17 CET 		8 flash info (23 - Østberg Mads / Eriksen Torstein): I wish I could enjoy it, but I am a little frustrated.

21. 05. 2021 19:17
21. 05. 2021 20:17 CET 		8 flash info (21 - Bulacia Marco / Der Ohannesian Marcelo): It was very fun to drive. It was a very difficult day for me. I have been struggling with myself. Tonight I will reset my mind and hopefully tomorrow I will be driving better.

21. 05. 2021 19:14

I am not able to have a rhythm in the stages and I need to sort this out, because I can not continue to do a full rally like this.
21. 05. 2021 19:09
21. 05. 2021 20:09 CET 		6 flash info (6 - Sordo Dani / Rozada Borja): I just need to drive slow, because I had a problem with two tyres on the front in the first stage. Something really weird.

21. 05. 2021 20:06 CET 		6 flash info (33 - Evans Elfyn / Martin Scott): It's not easy out there. If I am behind Thierry then it's not a good time. Let's say it's not just fitting like a glove - it probably needs a bit of tweaking here and there.

21. 05. 2021 20:03 CET 		4 flash info (22 - Lappi Esapekka / Ferm Janne): We will just try to go through without any drama. It's very easy to get into trouble, so that's the plan.

21. 05. 2021 20:03 CET 		4 flash info (6 - Sordo Dani / Rozada Borja): I didn't change a lot. The end was not so good, but we will try to do better in the next one.
21. 05. 2021 19:02
21. 05. 2021 20:02 CET 		4 flash info (44 - Greensmith Gus / Patterson Chris): The car feels good. It was disappointing with the puncture - I'm getting close to that first stage win, but it's starting to annoy me, so I need to get it soon!
21. 05. 2021 19:02
21. 05. 2021 20:02 CET 		4 flash info (18 - Katsuta Takamoto / Barritt Daniel): It's nice - I am enjoying this rally. I need to improve on small mistakes and things. It's getting rough and rocks are coming on the line, so it's quite tricky.

21. 05. 2021 20:02 CET 		4 flash info (69 - Rovanperä Kalle / Halttunen Jonne): We have altered something on the settings of the car and it was helping for sure. We just need to find the set-up for the first loop.

21. 05. 2021 20:01 CET 		4 flash info (11 - Neuville Thierry / Wydaeghe Martijn): We expected the roads to be rougher, so we have to go out with hard tyres on the car. The car is feeling well - I am surprised and I didn't expect that so I am happy.

21. 05. 2021 11:56 CET 		3 flash info (22 - Lappi Esapekka / Ferm Janne): Step by step. We made some adjustments before this stage and before the middle stage, but the road surface is strange. There is no grip and on this one there was a lot of surprises.
21. 05. 2021 10:56
21. 05. 2021 11:56 CET 		3 flash info (21 - Bulacia Marco / Der Ohannesian Marcelo): It was a bit difficult. We already improved a bit, but it's not enough - we need to keep working.
21. 05. 2021 10:52
21. 05. 2021 11:52 CET 		3 flash info (6 - Sordo Dani / Rozada Borja): We had a different way to manage the tyres. This stage was slippery - it looks like the time is not so bad.

21. 05. 2021 11:51 CET 		3 flash info (16 - Fourmaux Adrien / Jamoul Renaud): I understand that now I need to be in the lines of the other drivers to keep the traction and grip all the time. I think that one was a pretty good time.
21. 05. 2021 10:51
21. 05. 2021 11:51 CET 		3 flash info (18 - Katsuta Takamoto / Barritt Daniel): It's going to be tricky this afternoon. In some sections I need to push. Some sections are just so slippery because the surface is so smooth - it's not easy.
21. 05. 2021 10:51
21. 05. 2021 11:51 CET 		3 flash info (69 - Rovanperä Kalle / Halttunen Jonne): I was trying to do the best I can, but I am struggling with the car way too much now. I just didn't get the feeling - these roads are a bit different. It's bad, really bad.
21. 05. 2021 10:51
21. 05. 2021 11:51 CET 		3 flash info (8 - Tänak Ott / Järveoja Martin): I guess everybody had the same tyres. I just tried to manage them, but in some places it is quite tricky. We are still here and hopefully in the afternoon we will find a better feeling.
21. 05. 2021 10:50
21. 05. 2021 11:50 CET 		3 flash info (33 - Evans Elfyn / Martin Scott): It's difficult because the hard [tyre] has no grip and the soft [tyre] is moving a lot. We will try and work our way around it as much as possible, but it's not working so easily.
21. 05. 2021 10:50
21. 05. 2021 11:50 CET 		3 flash info (11 - Neuville Thierry / Wydaeghe Martijn): Generally, we can be quite satisfied with the morning. With this one, I wasn't able to push to the maximum. It was really slippery, and I just didn't feel it.

21. 05. 2021 11:49 CET 		2 flash info (6 - Sordo Dani / Rozada Borja): It was quite good - the car is working well and now with the co-driver it's much better than the first stage. I tried to not push so much, because I don't know what tyres we need to use again.
21. 05. 2021 10:48
21. 05. 2021 11:48 CET 		2 flash info (44 - Greensmith Gus / Patterson Chris): That felt pretty good. I felt the tyres overheating, so I was just trying to manage it, but it looks like I was a little too cautious in places.
21. 05. 2021 10:48
21. 05. 2021 11:48 CET 		2 flash info (16 - Fourmaux Adrien / Jamoul Renaud): The other guys know this stage well. I was losing the soft tyres after 5km before the end of the stage, so I was careful at the end. I was just enjoying.
21. 05. 2021 10:48
21. 05. 2021 11:48 CET 		2 flash info (18 - Katsuta Takamoto / Barritt Daniel): The conditions are getting better. I made a lot of mistakes, so not so good driving. It could be a lot better so I will try to improve.
21. 05. 2021 10:48
21. 05. 2021 11:48 CET 		2 flash info (69 - Rovanperä Kalle / Halttunen Jonne): Not happy. It's really difficult with the soft tyres. The car is so soft and there is a lot of understeering for me. We are struggling with the car a lot and I am not happy with the time.
21. 05. 2021 10:47
21. 05. 2021 11:47 CET 		2 flash info (8 - Tänak Ott / Järveoja Martin): We need to improve a lot - it feels like we are fighting the car a lot.

21. 05. 2021 11:47 CET 		2 flash info (33 - Evans Elfyn / Martin Scott): It's not so easy. The soft tyres are moving around quite a lot, but it's okay.

21. 05. 2021 11:47 CET 		2 flash info (11 - Neuville Thierry / Wydaeghe Martijn): I had a good stage. I had a very clean stage, actually. Maybe I could have pushed a bit more, but the tyres are moving quite a lot. I tried to find the right balance between the grip and the movement in the car.

20. 05. 2021 10:21 CET 		SHAKEDOWN flash info (69 - Rovanperä Kalle / Halttunen Jonne): The target is the same as always - just to drive a good rally. It's nice to be back, and it's the first time I have driven in these kind of almost dry conditions on Pirellis.

20. 05. 2021 10:15 CET 		SHAKEDOWN flash info (8 - Tänak Ott / Järveoja Martin): Everything is possible this year. It's just hard to get the feeling and the confidence, but for sure, anything is possible.
