INFORMATION ABOUT SS 7
flash info (18 - Katsuta Takamoto / Johnston Aaron): That's good. That's all I can do now, keep pushing and taking the fastest times as much as I can to try and catch in front. It will be difficult to catch the podium places but you never know - anything can happen in this rally.
flash info (4 - Lappi Esapekka / Ferm Janne): It's better to do it this way. I know there are a lot of surprises coming today and I have been really slow, but at least we are on the road. That's the most important thing.
flash info (17 - Ogier Sébastien / Landais Vincent): Better than this morning... also because there was much less water. This kind of day, you are happy when you survive them because so many things can happen and so many things happened. This moment this afternoon cost us a bit of time but we are happy to still be here because it could have cost us a lot more.
flash info (8 - Tänak Ott / Järveoja Martin): It's not challenging at all, because I am just driving very slowly so there is nothing else we can do.
flash info (33 - Evans Elfyn / Martin Scott): It didn't feel so good, especially towards the end here. It's been tough, obviously. This morning, especially, was quite bad, but the afternoon was also not easy to adapt to after the zero-grip situation of the morning to having something you actually have to drive with.
flash info (69 - Rovanperä Kalle / Halttunen Jonne): Quite a bit more grip than we what we have seen so far today. Hopefully we are not cleaning it too much, but it felt quite tricky at the end with the narrow line.
