INFORMATION ABOUT SS 2
retired (45 - Šekuljica Slaven / Petrović Damir): technical problem in SS 2
(45 - Šekuljica Slaven / Petrović Damir): was out of road
(51 - Pahlitzsch Thomas / Grundmann Stefan): was out of the road
flash info (25 - Greensmith Gus / Andersson Jonas): It was okay, quite a lot slipper towards the end. There was a lot of places where there was mud and stuff pulled out on the road, think a few people may have had issues in places but there we go.
flash info (24 - Kajetanowicz Kajetan / Szczepaniak Maciej): It's slippery! And bumpy. When I don't know where it is, I don't like. We are happy. See you tomorrow.
flash info (22 - Gryazin Nikolay / Aleksandrov Konstantin): It was good, I like this kind of stage. It was scary and demanding. Sorry for Rossel.
flash info (21 - Rossel Yohan / Barral Florian): I don't know how that happened.
(21 - Rossel Yohan / Barral Florian): puncture
(21 - Rossel Yohan / Barral Florian): was out of road
flash info (20 - Solberg Oliver / Edmondson Elliott): I was wide in a few corners, there was some pollution or very slippery places that I did not expect. The car was so bumpy in there, bouncing everywhere. Difficult to find the confidence.
flash info (19 - Serderidis Jourdan / Miclotte Fréderic): Difficult stage, in the night the grip is changing all the time and it is dirty in places you don't think it is dirty. Quite difficult.
flash info (13 - Munster Grégoire / Louka Louis): It's difficult, the last part is a bit more slippery. There is like a small dust on top of the Tarmac. Not feeling comfortable with the car right now, it is still enjoyable in the car but in order to push you need to trust the car. We have quite a lot of understeer, in the corner you need to turn the front and the rest will follow.
flash info (9 - Mikkelsen Andreas / Eriksen Torstein): Now is the first time I enjoyed driving the car on Tarmac, I changed a lot on the test. It was really enjoyable to drive, it didn't feel like I was pushing, everything was controlled. It was a nice feeling. I tried to copy [Neuville] and [Tänak], but because I wasn't in the car much, it didn't work for me. I made the car more forgiving and I am happy now.
flash info (5 - Pajari Sami / Mälkönen Enni): At the same time it is really nice and quite demanding. Obviously I enjoyed it but there are a lot of places I am not perfect, missing braking points and too careful. I can't wait for tomorrow.
flash info (18 - Katsuta Takamoto / Johnston Aaron): Time is very good. I didn't poush so much but enjoying this car a lot. This car is fantastic. OK, it was getting darker and darker all the time, but all the pace note information is going well. I need to be a bit steady tomorrow as it is the biggest day of the rally, but I am steady.
flash info (16 - Fourmaux Adrien / Coria Alexandre): It was really dark for us, nice feeling as we always like to drive in the dark. Bit of changing grip to be fair, I like to drive in the dark. Sometimes it is difficult to see the length on the corner.
flash info (33 - Evans Elfyn / Martin Scott): Some places, really low grip but others quite a lot. It's always nice to do some driving in the dark, it doesn't happen so often anymore but it is great.
flash info (17 - Ogier Sébastien / Landais Vincent): Pretty slippery, the stage quite dusty. All okay, nothing special. It is often like this on a Thursday, tomorrow will be more action.
flash info (8 - Tänak Ott / Järveoja Martin): It was a bit more interesting than expected, many more grip changes and quite tricky braking. People still see something, it is light where the light doesn't show and difficult to see.
flash info (11 - Neuville Thierry / Wydaeghe Martijn): I can't be happy to be honest, I took off the aero in the front right by stupidly touching a straw bale. I didn't know but it will handicap me for the whole morning tomorrow. Even here, we touched some, but we have nothing to lose anymore, it is gone already.
Stage is completely dry.
