INFORMATION ABOUT SS 7
retired (22 - Hunt Ben / Rawstorn Tony): retired in SS 7
flash info (2 - Solberg Oliver / Edmondson Elliott): A difficult stage. I just drove carefully because I don't have many tyres left on the back, but I'm getting more and more into it. The feeling is better in the car now.
flash info (1 - Ogier Sébastien / Veillas Benjamin): Without a rear wing on such a fast stage I did what I could, but it was not the same.
flash info (44 - Greensmith Gus / Andersson Jonas): It's been a good day - just some strange patterns of tyre wear this afternoon which have made things very difficult this afternoon.
flash info (18 - Katsuta Takamoto / Johnston Aaron): It's very mixed conditions this afternoon and I wasn't so committed. I have many things to improve, so I will try to find out this evening what I can do for tomorrow.
flash info (33 - Evans Elfyn / Martin Scott): We changed some stuff with the car and some things are better, but it took me a while at the start to get used to it. It's not all bad but it's not the way we wanted to finish the day.
flash info (11 - Neuville Thierry / Wydaeghe Martijn): It has been not a good day for us. I am still not 100 per cent confident in the car and we have some things we need to work on. In Greece I felt comfortable but in all the other rallies it's never feels good enough for me to push.
flash info (69 - Rovanperä Kalle / Halttunen Jonne): It has been so far quite good. No mistakes and we did everything we could. I think we can be quite happy with what we have done, but here I think we will lose some time. The tyres were so done and there was no grip for us.
