Информация за СЕ 14
retired (40 - Rossi Ghjuvanni / Sarmezan Kylian): retired after SS 14
flash info (22 - Kajetanowicz Kajetan / Szczepaniak Maciej): Nice and difficult, I like these kind of roads. It is my third time here, this stage is the same every time and I don't remember the corners. There are so many similar corners. Possibly it is possible to remember. We are changing the car between stages, sometimes it is better, sometimes it is worse. I enjoy.
flash info (36 - Kogure Hikaru / Luhtinen Topi): Clean run, very good stage. There is so much dirt on the surface so I cannot have good confidence in the corners, I leave the grip to the tyres, so very good stage. Definitely I am happy because yesterday I was struggling, it is difficult to match the info between driver and the gravel crew, so today I have more insight.
flash info (25 - Greensmith Gus / Andersson Jonas): It was better this time without a spin, but that corner is still very slippery. The hard tyres took a long time to heat up. If I wouldn't have hit a rock face it would've been a battle for a podium but there it is.
flash info (30 - Ingram Chris / Kihurani Alexander): I am struggling so much with the brakes, I am not able to commit at all. I am not surprised Greensmith is taking time out.
flash info (31 - Arai Hiroki / Matsuo Shunsuke): It's a little bit tricky because the road section is really tight and we don't have any time to make the tyre pressure, so little bit hard on this one because maybe the front tyres are going to be really high with no grip at all, so the next one is going to be really hard I think.
flash info (32 - Kovalainen Heikki / Kitagawa Sae): It seems like I am a step behind all the time. I would need to do these times more on the second loop. The feeling isn't super good, mainly because the times are not good. The feeling is there in the car, but Julian, do you have any idea what to do? We are not far off. In the slippery areas I am too cautious. We need better pace.
flash info (20 - Pajari Sami / Mälkönen Enni): It was quite nice, clean run. I need to see the time but the feeling was quite okay.
flash info (21 - Gryazin Nikolay / Aleksandrov Konstantin): It was good, really nice flow and much better to drive on the hard tyres on these kind of stages.
flash info (8 - Tänak Ott / Järveoja Martin): All good! Changing all the time, some places pretty slippery still. Happy.
flash info (33 - Evans Elfyn / Martin Scott): Not great, it seems that it is drier and with our tyre now we don't seem to be performing as well as the morning and certainly not as well as we should. I am not sure if it is specifically the hard tyre, but certainly we are not performing as well as we should.
flash info (16 - Fourmaux Adrien / Coria Alexandre): It is a really tight fight with the guys, it is really nice but the Toyota is quite quick. I am trying hard. I was really enjoying the stage, I was pushing, I do not want to let Taka pass and I want to stay close to Séb, so I give a lot.
flash info (18 - Katsuta Takamoto / Johnston Aaron): It would be nice to catch Fourmaux because Séb is quite okay position wise. In case anything happens in front I have to be in front of Adrien at least, maybe now I need to try. It's a very nice stage, nice condition. Could be better but it is nice and enjoyable.
flash info (17 - Ogier Sébastien / Landais Vincent): It's been a fun stage now, very clean, good grip. Maybe the first one of the rally that was so clean like this. It is always enjoyable when you have a clean stage like this and you can trust the grip.
flash info (13 - Munster Grégoire / Louka Louis): Honestly I had a good feeling, so we will see the split to understand where we lose so much time. I don't know whether it is consistent or just one portion.
flash info (11 - Neuville Thierry / Wydaeghe Martijn): It felt okay, I am struggling with the brakes since the last stage of the morning loop. Again, here. We are trying to catch P7 as it is an extra point. I am not sure we are able to because of this issue. We lose the bite and then all the confidence in this car.
