INFORMATION ABOUT SS 1
retired (94 - Pita Renato / Boiça Luis): retired after SS 1
flash info (69 - Rovanperä Kalle / Halttunen Jonne): I am feeling good. It will be interesting to see where we are tomorrow and it will be a tough day opening the road. Hopefully we can keep hold of a good position.
flash info (11 - Neuville Thierry / Wydaeghe Martijn): We are still discovering. A really nice opening stage - it's good to see the crowds again because the last three years have been not so nice. Hopefully it will be a great fight this weekend.
flash info (42 - Breen Craig / Nagle Paul): It's exciting. I've done the event up here twice, so the stages are relatively new to me tomorrow. I'm looking forward to it.
flash info (19 - Loeb Sébastien / Galmiche Isabelle): It will be difficult. I need to get into the rhythm first and the road position will not be easy. I will try my best. I don't believe we can fight for the win but I will try to have a good rally.
flash info (8 - Tänak Ott / Järveoja Martin): Most of the championship is on gravel and it's nice to start here. Portugal is a fantastic event with fast roads. I have always enjoyed it, so hopefully we can enjoy it from tomorrow.
flash info (18 - Katsuta Takamoto / Johnston Aaron): This is just for the show, but it's nice to drive in front of the fans. You can easily get lost, so I had to be very careful. The car feels good and I am looking forward to tomorrow's stages.
flash info (44 - Greensmith Gus / Andersson Jonas): It's my favourite rally - it's where I feel comfortable. I hate super specials, so I always try to memorise these stages! To start well on a stage like this is really good.
flash info (1 - Ogier Sébastien / Veillas Benjamin): I think it's been very nice. I have a kind of second family in terms of rallying here in Portugal, so I hope I can give them a good result! It's nice to be here.
flash info (33 - Evans Elfyn / Martin Scott): There are so many unknowns, like there has been all year. This weekend we don't know exactly how it'll feel with these cars, but we're looking forward to it.
flash info (7 - Loubet Pierre-Louis / Landais Vincent): We will try to do our best, for sure. It's an event we like and the feeling during shakedown was good, so I hope we can do the same during the rally.
flash info (16 - Fourmaux Adrien / Coria Alexandre): I want to get back the confidence, especially on gravel. It will be a tough rally for everybody - the first rally with the new cars on gravel. It's a new challenge.
flash info (6 - Sordo Dani / Carrera Cándido): I was thinking about how the car was working and I wasn't concentrating.
flash info (20 - Mikkelsen Andreas / Eriksen Torstein): I like this rally a lot. Last time I did it was 2018, so quite a long time ago. I think we have a nice weekend in front of us.
flash info (21 - Suninen Teemu / Markkula Mikko): The feeling is good with the car. Of course, with one day of testing, we didn't have time to check everything, but let's see what we can do here.
flash info (22 - Gryazin Nikolay / Aleksandrov Konstantin): It's fun to drive, but very difficult. The car set-up is not for a stage like this, but we drove through without making any mistakes.
flash info (23 - Solberg Oliver / Edmondson Elliott): It's fantastic. So many people and it's very fun to drive this kind of stage. I had a lot of understeer, but I really enjoyed it so it's okay.
retired (29 - Camilli Eric / De La Haye Thibault): didn't start before start
