Date and time	SS	Information
01. 09. 2024 15:03 01. 09. 2024 16:03 CET	14	(18 - Tempestini Simone / Itu Sebastian): retired before SS 14
01. 09. 2024 15:02 01. 09. 2024 16:02 CET	14	(1 - Paddon Hayden / Kennard John): A relief! It's been a very tough season, the whole team have been trying. To do this reasonably comfortably is a massive result for the team. Thanks to everyone watching back home.
01. 09. 2024 15:01 01. 09. 2024 16:01 CET	14	(2 - Franceschi Mathieu / Malfoy Andy): The feeling is strange, because all the weekend, the choice is not the best one. I need to take the positive point. Thank you to my team, I don't know what can happen in Poland but I think after this beautiful season we can be stronger and be clean as well.
01. 09. 2024 15:00 01. 09. 2024 16:00 CET	14	(4 - Mabellini Andrea / Lenzi Virginia): It feels very great because we put a lot of effort, also with budget to be here, it is so good to be here in this race. It is a dream come true, it is for me, for Virgi Lenzi that we put all the effort in. Thank you everybody!
01. 09. 2024 14:59 01. 09. 2024 15:59 CET	14	(3 - Marczyk Miko / Gospodarczyk Szymon): I think maybe the wets were not the perfect choice, in some places I was too cautious. I am happy, I am on the finish line of the best race of my season, I would like to push a bit more but I really appreciate my weekend and I'm happy we are here.
01. 09. 2024 14:59 01. 09. 2024 15:59 CET	14	(11 - Devine Callum / O’Sullivan Noel): I really enjoyed it and it has been a challenge to get our heads round again, like the recce and the cuts! I really enjoyed it and it would have been a good result, but we had the wrong tyre choice this last loop. A big thanks to the whole team as well, they made a big effort to be here. We're absolutely delighted and we hope it's not the last.
01. 09. 2024 14:59 01. 09. 2024 15:59 CET	14	(5 - Armstrong Jon / Treacy Eoin): It's not so easy in there, we tried to go with a harder tyre option because we know it's quite abrasive. We gave it a good go. Thanks to M-Sport, thanks to Motorsport Rally Ireland Academy, thanks to Eoin Treacy on the notes. It was nice to be fighting at the front.
01. 09. 2024 14:58 01. 09. 2024 15:58 CET	14	(7 - Pryce Osian / Evans Rhodri): Credit to the organisers, we won't say too much about my performance! it's been a privilege to be a part of it, our event was a bit frustrating and I watched the onboards back. We are not a million miles away, we know where it is, but we can't quite get there. Thanks to Rhodri, thanks to everyone supporting my hobby and my addiction to rallying. Championship wise it's probably done, but we'll do some number crunching and see how it goes from there.
01. 09. 2024 14:57 01. 09. 2024 15:57 CET	14	(10 - Edwards Matthew / Moynihan David): Pretty gutting, engine cut out three times and we had to power cycle. Otherwise, great rally. We've achieved a lot from where we started. Credit to the organisers, we've learnt a lot in the car, Jess my wife who was very supportive of me doing the rally. Looking forward to seeing Faye and Ryan - hello kids, I'll see you tomorrow.
01. 09. 2024 14:57 01. 09. 2024 15:57 CET	14	(12 - Evans Meirion / Jackson Jonathan): It's nice, obviously we'd have liked more this weekend. Every time things have started to move, we've been kicked back. We took four super softs for the stage before when really we didn't need them. I hope I can do more at this level to be honest.
01. 09. 2024 14:56 01. 09. 2024 15:56 CET	14	(6 - Creighton William / Regan Liam): Let's see what the BRC guys do behind us, yesterday wasn't good for me, too many mistakes and small errors that cost us a lot of time. Everyone on the team got behind me and we kept at it, so thanks to everyone on the team. Thanks for everybody at the team at M-Sport and Motorsport Ireland Rally Academy for sticking with us.
01. 09. 2024 14:56 01. 09. 2024 15:56 CET	14	(15 - Pearson Garry / Barritt Daniel): It's been tricky, really enjoyed the event. Just a bit of learning to do, credit to the team who have put out a good car but we have to do more with the package unfortunately.
01. 09. 2024 14:55 01. 09. 2024 15:55 CET	14	(16 - Allen Philip / Drew Craig): I enjoyed that stage, there was a six left where it was quite slippery and we went straight on and stalled and reversed. I don't think the time will be good enough, but time to reset, do more and cut out the silly mistakes.
01. 09. 2024 14:55 01. 09. 2024 15:55 CET	14	(24 - Johansson Mille / Grönvall Johan): Such a relief, perfect season, the team has done a very good job delivering a car with no problems all season. I want to thank all the people behind me, all the sponsors. Thank you!
01. 09. 2024 14:54 01. 09. 2024 15:54 CET	14	(26 - McRae Max / Fair Cameron): It feels really good, I knew it would be a hard weekend. It's not been easy but it is good.
01. 09. 2024 14:54 01. 09. 2024 15:54 CET	14	Starting order: MCRae, Johansson, Allen, Pearson, Creighton,Evans,Edwards, Pryce, Armstrong, Devine, Marczyk, Mabellini, Franceschi, Paddon
01. 09. 2024 14:52 01. 09. 2024 15:52 CET	14	After previous rain, road is drying very quickly.
01. 09. 2024 13:01 01. 09. 2024 14:01 CET	13	(31 - Brennan Jack / McGrath John): accident in SS 13
01. 09. 2024 12:52 01. 09. 2024 13:52 CET	13	(27 - Polášek Daniel / Omelka Zdeněk): was out of road
01. 09. 2024 12:40 01. 09. 2024 13:40 CET	13	(1 - Paddon Hayden / Kennard John): The beauty of our game is that there are two or three stages in the loop, so we take a compromise on tyres. It's hard when you're going slowly, a couple small moments on the brakes but other than that, all good.
01. 09. 2024 12:37 01. 09. 2024 13:37 CET	13	(2 - Franceschi Mathieu / Malfoy Andy): It's like this...
01. 09. 2024 12:35 01. 09. 2024 13:35 CET	13	(3 - Marczyk Miko / Gospodarczyk Szymon): Proper slidey stage in some places, like rain if it's in Barum. Nothing about the grip, we don't use properly the wet tyre. I think it was possible to go faster but we kept it on the road.
01. 09. 2024 12:35 01. 09. 2024 13:35 CET	13	(4 - Mabellini Andrea / Lenzi Virginia): I didn't enjoy the first part is quite crazy. Zero grip, I think it is the same for everybody, some aqua planing was quite scary. Under the forest was quite dry, then you exit and it is quite wet. Not an easy condition, you have to go corner by corner.
01. 09. 2024 12:34 01. 09. 2024 13:34 CET	13	(11 - Devine Callum / O’Sullivan Noel): We went for hard tyres, so that's that.
01. 09. 2024 12:32 01. 09. 2024 13:32 CET	13	(7 - Pryce Osian / Evans Rhodri): It's one of those, you could have an accident. We nearly had three. The car isn't quite doing what it's meant to do, so we just want to get it to the finish.
01. 09. 2024 12:27 01. 09. 2024 13:27 CET	13	(5 - Armstrong Jon / Treacy Eoin): I don't know if the tyre choice was correct, maybe wets would be better in there. The shiny tar at the start there was lethal. We almost went off where Chris Ingram went off this morning. Be careful to anyone behind because it is lethal.
01. 09. 2024 12:25 01. 09. 2024 13:25 CET	13	(10 - Edwards Matthew / Moynihan David): That stage is not dry at all, we have some round black Pirelli's to thank. Although it isn't a dry stage, you need all the softness you can to get through that. It's the surfaces that is the problem.
01. 09. 2024 12:22 01. 09. 2024 13:22 CET	13	(12 - Evans Meirion / Jackson Jonathan): Half the speed Chris was going, we just swapped ends. The annoying thing is we have super softs in the boot, but it was dry when we did the tyres and after that it rained.
01. 09. 2024 12:22 01. 09. 2024 13:22 CET	13	(18 - Tempestini Simone / Itu Sebastian): It was incredibly slippery, the Tarmac is changing a lot. At the beginning it was much more wet. At the beginning I began to trust the surface, but unfortunately I think I touched something with the side on the rear left wheel. Now I have to check because the car does not feel so good.
01. 09. 2024 12:21 01. 09. 2024 13:21 CET	13	(12 - Evans Meirion / Jackson Jonathan): was out of road
01. 09. 2024 12:21 01. 09. 2024 13:21 CET	13	(16 - Allen Philip / Drew Craig): I put her into the bank and had to reverse! That corner that caught Ingram out is glass! That is extremely slippery. If anyone is listening, watch Ingram's corner. It is ice.
01. 09. 2024 12:20 01. 09. 2024 13:20 CET	13	(16 - Allen Philip / Drew Craig): was out of road
01. 09. 2024 12:20 01. 09. 2024 13:20 CET	13	(16 - Allen Philip / Drew Craig): spun
01. 09. 2024 12:19 01. 09. 2024 13:19 CET	13	(6 - Creighton William / Regan Liam): A tricky little stage, it's like glass at the start. Let's see. We're here.
01. 09. 2024 12:19 01. 09. 2024 13:19 CET	13	(15 - Pearson Garry / Barritt Daniel): To be honest, tricky to make the right tyre choice in there but it isn't too far wrong. I don't know what everyone else went with but it's not easy.
01. 09. 2024 12:18 01. 09. 2024 13:18 CET	13	It is raining.
01. 09. 2024 10:38 01. 09. 2024 11:38 CET	12	Stage is cancelled.
01. 09. 2024 10:38 01. 09. 2024 11:38 CET	12	Stage is stopped.
01. 09. 2024 10:38 01. 09. 2024 11:38 CET	12	(23 - Kelly Eamonn / Kennedy Rory): accident in SS 12
01. 09. 2024 10:37 01. 09. 2024 11:37 CET	12	(1 - Paddon Hayden / Kennard John): We are taking it easy, that was a nice smooth run. The tyres are moving a lot. A good omen for the Power Stage as there is a lot left in it, it will be interesting for tyre choice as we don't know what the weather is going to do. My focus is not on the championship just getting all the points we can.
01. 09. 2024 10:37 01. 09. 2024 11:37 CET	12	(2 - Franceschi Mathieu / Malfoy Andy): Feel good, like I said this morning I love this stage.
01. 09. 2024 10:36 01. 09. 2024 11:36 CET	12	(3 - Marczyk Miko / Gospodarczyk Szymon): Proper drive here, I was doing my best. In some places, we lost some tenths of seconds and in some places it was impossible to drive faster. We need to go to service, wait for Franceschi and do our best like we are doing all the time.
01. 09. 2024 10:36 01. 09. 2024 11:36 CET	12	(4 - Mabellini Andrea / Lenzi Virginia): It was okay, a little bit tricky at the beginning. You can not have the same commitment at the beginning with cold tyres, maybe we lost some then but it's okay.
01. 09. 2024 10:36 01. 09. 2024 11:36 CET	12	(11 - Devine Callum / O’Sullivan Noel): Not great, couple of places braking far too early. Got out of rhythm in some places so need to work on the notes. Nice and dry, all good.
01. 09. 2024 10:35 01. 09. 2024 11:35 CET	12	(7 - Pryce Osian / Evans Rhodri): As you saw on the last corner, massive understeer. Trying to push, but every time we push we overdrive so we have to underdrive. I don't know what else I can do with the package I've got.
01. 09. 2024 10:35 01. 09. 2024 11:35 CET	12	(5 - Armstrong Jon / Treacy Eoin): Pretty good, we knew this one was gonna be hard on tyres. We took a bit of a gamble in there and knew it was gonna be spicy, so thanks to the guys for figuring it all.
01. 09. 2024 10:35 01. 09. 2024 11:35 CET	12	(10 - Edwards Matthew / Moynihan David): We started off as most eventful as it got, we have had a good run since. There's been a bit of drama in there, there is grass and tyre marks all over the road. That is the nicest stage of the event I'd say.
01. 09. 2024 10:34 01. 09. 2024 11:34 CET	12	(16 - Allen Philip / Drew Craig): Just an overambitious note. Turned it in and it wasn't flat, went right across the road. Got away a lot more than I thought I was gonna get away. Shouldn't happen, but reset and we're back out the next time.
01. 09. 2024 10:34 01. 09. 2024 11:34 CET	12	(12 - Evans Meirion / Jackson Jonathan): The first loop was quite easy, but it looks more interesting for the next loop as I think it is coming in a bit. I wasn't happy with that one to be honest, I thought we could drive a bit quicker. You might get wet.
01. 09. 2024 10:33 01. 09. 2024 11:33 CET	12	(18 - Tempestini Simone / Itu Sebastian): I think Allen was okay, it was just a spin in high speed and maybe they have some problem with the car. We enjoy this stage, is quite difficult. Very narrow, but so fast.
01. 09. 2024 10:32 01. 09. 2024 11:32 CET	12	(16 - Allen Philip / Drew Craig): was out of road
01. 09. 2024 10:32 01. 09. 2024 11:32 CET	12	(6 - Creighton William / Regan Liam): We still have a lot of work to do, it is unfortunate for the guys to have those issues. I messed up a couple of junctions getting caught out in the braking, it would be better to be neat there.
01. 09. 2024 10:31 01. 09. 2024 11:31 CET	12	(15 - Pearson Garry / Barritt Daniel): Definitely a wee bit trickier than the first one.
01. 09. 2024 10:39 01. 09. 2024 11:39 CET	11	(41 - Rahill Craig / Smith Conor): retired after SS 11
01. 09. 2024 09:23 01. 09. 2024 10:23 CET	11	Stage is cancelled.
01. 09. 2024 09:22 01. 09. 2024 10:22 CET	11	Stage is stopped.
01. 09. 2024 09:22 01. 09. 2024 10:22 CET	11	(9 - Cronin Keith / Galvin Mikie): accident in SS 11
01. 09. 2024 09:21 01. 09. 2024 10:21 CET	11	(2 - Franceschi Mathieu / Malfoy Andy): Short stage but difficult one, really technical. Yesterday was the reverse, but now we have grip.
01. 09. 2024 09:21 01. 09. 2024 10:21 CET	11	(8 - Ingram Chris / Kihurani Alexander): accident in SS 11
01. 09. 2024 09:20 01. 09. 2024 10:20 CET	11	(4 - Mabellini Andrea / Lenzi Virginia): Not happy, because 4.0sec is quite a lot on this stage. It was quite clean on oiur side, it was possible to go 2sec-3sec after. Now it is time for the dress rehearsal of the Power Stage.
01. 09. 2024 09:20 01. 09. 2024 10:20 CET	11	(11 - Devine Callum / O’Sullivan Noel): Some places a couple of guys had hit banks and got in ruts and pulled a lot of stuff out onto the road. The grip changes a lot, it's almost like a shiny surface. It would be a tricky stage if it was wet.
01. 09. 2024 09:19 01. 09. 2024 10:19 CET	11	(7 - Pryce Osian / Evans Rhodri): Just didn't get in the rhythm, got lost in the notes and the pace wasn't there. Not the best start to the day, but we'll get there.
01. 09. 2024 09:19 01. 09. 2024 10:19 CET	11	(5 - Armstrong Jon / Treacy Eoin): It's not too bad, not a bad run for us. Some of the other guys are going quite fast but a pretty good run and let's see if we can get faster now.
01. 09. 2024 09:18 01. 09. 2024 10:18 CET	11	(10 - Edwards Matthew / Moynihan David): Fairly early on, very shiny right hander that nips on the exit, few people had a wobble there as there is a lot of rubble on the road. I wouldn't be surprised to see someone else struggle in there.
01. 09. 2024 09:18 01. 09. 2024 10:18 CET	11	(12 - Evans Meirion / Jackson Jonathan): Doesn't look too bad, looks okay but it is a tricky little stage. The grip was better than I expected to be. The next one we are a bit more familiar with so we can have a push, but the car is working well.
01. 09. 2024 09:17 01. 09. 2024 10:17 CET	11	(18 - Tempestini Simone / Itu Sebastian): It was a short one, 10km. It was a really difficult one, very fast from the early morning, so a challenging stage.
01. 09. 2024 09:17 01. 09. 2024 10:17 CET	11	(16 - Allen Philip / Drew Craig): It was grand, I was a bit scruffy, I might say.
01. 09. 2024 09:17 01. 09. 2024 10:17 CET	11	(6 - Creighton William / Regan Liam): It's nice to have a clean road, I tried to push. I don't know what the time will be like compared to everyone behind. The road is clean, I pushed.
01. 09. 2024 09:16 01. 09. 2024 10:16 CET	11	(15 - Pearson Garry / Barritt Daniel): The feeling is better to be fair, I think we have a bit of learning to do on this surface, so we just need to get into the stage and be more committed.
01. 09. 2024 09:15 01. 09. 2024 10:15 CET	11	Weather in Wales is cloudy, temperature is around 15°C. roads are dry.
31. 08. 2024 22:43 31. 08. 2024 23:43 CET	10	(17 - von Thurn und Taxis Albert / Christian Frank): retired after SS 10
31. 08. 2024 22:42 31. 08. 2024 23:42 CET	10	(28 - Schulz Timo / Wenzel Michael): broken driveshaft
31. 08. 2024 22:41 31. 08. 2024 23:41 CET	10	(15 - Pearson Garry / Barritt Daniel): The BRC season is going okay. I think we're fifth coming in to today, hopefully tomorrow we can reset and go again. Credit to the team, the car and the whole package, I just need to work on myself.
31. 08. 2024 22:40 31. 08. 2024 23:40 CET	10	(17 - von Thurn und Taxis Albert / Christian Frank): I am a big fan, I have to say. The people are lovely too and seem to have a heart for rallying. It's a privilege to drive on these incredible roads. I've never seen anything like it if I'm being honest.
31. 08. 2024 22:40 31. 08. 2024 23:40 CET	10	(12 - Evans Meirion / Jackson Jonathan): Every time we were on the limit today the [pop-off] valve was opening and coughing away my boost. Hopefully we can change it tonight and be good for the morning.
31. 08. 2024 22:40 31. 08. 2024 23:40 CET	10	(11 - Devine Callum / O’Sullivan Noel): A lot of really quick guys, some good times and not so good times. The big stage we lost a lot of time, but I usually like these kind of stages. Not bad times, we're happy.
31. 08. 2024 22:39 31. 08. 2024 23:39 CET	10	(7 - Pryce Osian / Evans Rhodri): It's been an up and down day, we've had some good times, missed a stage, there's been some good bits but up and down. The car is a bit better than it was this time last night so we'll keep the progression up and hopefully have a good day tomorrow.
31. 08. 2024 22:39 31. 08. 2024 23:39 CET	10	(16 - Allen Philip / Drew Craig): Every time you turn it in, it's hard to control. The steering arm needs to be fixed, but that's my fault. We'll go tomorrow for a bit more learning.
31. 08. 2024 22:39 31. 08. 2024 23:39 CET	10	(10 - Edwards Matthew / Moynihan David): Our day has been down going up rather than up going down. I am a big believer in trusting the process if things don't go right. I know we're in a big competition with some big names about, but we just have to trust the process and try and go through it.
31. 08. 2024 22:38 31. 08. 2024 23:38 CET	10	(4 - Mabellini Andrea / Lenzi Virginia): It will be game on for sure, maybe we lost a lot of time on the first pass of the first loop. Maybe you saw from the images we were pushing like hell, we had some moments. For today it was okay, I am really sorry for Tempestini that he lost his right rear suspension. We are okay today so we focus for tomorrow.
31. 08. 2024 22:38 31. 08. 2024 23:38 CET	10	(9 - Cronin Keith / Galvin Mikie): After what happened last night in that stage I wass being extra careful everywhere! I'm not too worried about that but we'll see what tomorrow holds.
31. 08. 2024 22:38 31. 08. 2024 23:38 CET	10	(8 - Ingram Chris / Kihurani Alexander): It's a relief to get to the end of this day, I tried to control the national championship today so hopefully we can step up the pace a bit and end the rally in a good way.
31. 08. 2024 22:37 31. 08. 2024 23:37 CET	10	(3 - Marczyk Miko / Gospodarczyk Szymon): It was a really good day, especially the afternoon loop. I felt better because there was too much caution on the first one to be close on the last one of the loop. We understood on the second pass where it was better, today was really easy weather for us. I think it is ten guys in ten seconds but let's see what happens for tomorrow.
31. 08. 2024 22:37 31. 08. 2024 23:37 CET	10	(5 - Armstrong Jon / Treacy Eoin): Today has been really good pace, we just need to keep going now and improve tomorrow. With how far we are back we should be able to go well. Thanks for the team and the car is working really well.
31. 08. 2024 22:37 31. 08. 2024 23:37 CET	10	(6 - Creighton William / Regan Liam): For sure the pace in this championship is very high. We need to be happy, it's not the day we wanted and not the best performance but we just have to reset for tomorrow.
31. 08. 2024 22:36 31. 08. 2024 23:36 CET	10	(2 - Franceschi Mathieu / Malfoy Andy): New chicane! Marczyk moved it. The afternoon was better, we found something on the last stage. I hope for the rain because I like driving when it is wet.
31. 08. 2024 22:36 31. 08. 2024 23:36 CET	10	(1 - Paddon Hayden / Kennard John): I have had a pretty good day! To be fair, Seb Scott scared me on the long stage that we were 10sec down on the mid point. Been a very good day, I'm happy and we look forward to tomorrow.
31. 08. 2024 22:43 31. 08. 2024 23:43 CET	8	(18 - Tempestini Simone / Itu Sebastian): damaged suspension after SS 8
31. 08. 2024 22:35 31. 08. 2024 23:35 CET	8	(15 - Pearson Garry / Barritt Daniel): The hards are definitely working a lot better for us today. Tricky loop, especially on that gravel. Losing 10min before, we really struggled to get into the groove of it this morning. We have the two super specials to look forward to now.
31. 08. 2024 22:35 31. 08. 2024 23:35 CET	8	(17 - von Thurn und Taxis Albert / Christian Frank): Tricky day. Difficult. My back hurts! Lot of bottoming out! Humility training but good training.
31. 08. 2024 22:35 31. 08. 2024 23:35 CET	8	(12 - Evans Meirion / Jackson Jonathan): We've had a pop-off problem all afternoon so it has not been the best afternoon. We'll see what we can do.
31. 08. 2024 22:34 31. 08. 2024 23:34 CET	8	(11 - Devine Callum / O’Sullivan Noel): Clipped a rock there, tricky stage to end the loop. Happy enough, been a tricky day so all good.
31. 08. 2024 22:34 31. 08. 2024 23:34 CET	8	(16 - Allen Philip / Drew Craig): The steering wheel was driving strange. I got tyre damage somewhere, but I suppose this is just damage limitation to reset and see what pace we can find tomorrow. We're trying to go as hard as we possibly could. Tomorrow is a new day.
31. 08. 2024 22:34 31. 08. 2024 23:34 CET	8	(7 - Pryce Osian / Evans Rhodri): Allen] was pulled in well out the way, everything seemed okay. Pace has been good, felt like an alright run. Felt like a good second half of the stage but the start I was just too cautious maybe.
31. 08. 2024 22:33 31. 08. 2024 23:33 CET	8	(16 - Allen Philip / Drew Craig): puncture
31. 08. 2024 22:33 31. 08. 2024 23:33 CET	8	(10 - Edwards Matthew / Moynihan David): There's always a variable today, always something changing and something to manage. We're building the blocks back slowly.
31. 08. 2024 22:33 31. 08. 2024 23:33 CET	8	(18 - Tempestini Simone / Itu Sebastian): I left a corner with some mud, I expected to slide a bit. We went into the grass. I didn't expect to slide a bit. We hit the suspension.
31. 08. 2024 22:32 31. 08. 2024 23:32 CET	8	(4 - Mabellini Andrea / Lenzi Virginia): I am really sorry for Tempestini as he was racing an incredible rally till this moment, but he was great as he pulled over when he saw me. We pushed on this, we touched a bit of gravel in the chicane with the right side of the car.
31. 08. 2024 22:32 31. 08. 2024 23:32 CET	8	(18 - Tempestini Simone / Itu Sebastian): damaged suspension
31. 08. 2024 22:31 31. 08. 2024 23:31 CET	8	(9 - Cronin Keith / Galvin Mikie): Not really a big push, no confidence this morning and the confidence is getting better and better. I didn't anticipate going in so far in the recce so I'm trying to read it and anticipate the line so I can go further.
31. 08. 2024 22:31 31. 08. 2024 23:31 CET	8	(8 - Ingram Chris / Kihurani Alexander): Almost friends with the Yaris. Really tough day, bit of a test really. Can get through, keep this position then reset. Push a bit harder tomorrow.
31. 08. 2024 22:31 31. 08. 2024 23:31 CET	8	(3 - Marczyk Miko / Gospodarczyk Szymon): It was 15sec faster than the first run but still too slow. This one was very high grip and I improved the possibilities. It was still possible to get 2-3sec here so I am not happy. Maybe not long but demanding day tomorrow because a lot of guys are very close.
31. 08. 2024 22:30 31. 08. 2024 23:30 CET	8	(5 - Armstrong Jon / Treacy Eoin): It was much better, bit more to discover because most of the stage last time I was driving with tyre damage. Little moment at the end where we ran wide so lost a bit of time there, but overall a good stage.
31. 08. 2024 22:30 31. 08. 2024 23:30 CET	8	(6 - Creighton William / Regan Liam): I don't like to complain because driving that in there is so fun so we're very lucky. It hasn't been our day, mistakes from me and we haven't been on the ultimate rhythm.
31. 08. 2024 22:30 31. 08. 2024 23:30 CET	8	(2 - Franceschi Mathieu / Malfoy Andy): It's been difficult because we cannot buy experience and sometimes you need to take time to learn. For sure we are in the fight for the championship with an ex-WRC driver who has lots of experience. For sure, I wish I had more speed. It's only seventh time out of France. so in my head I have to stay focused.
31. 08. 2024 22:29 31. 08. 2024 23:29 CET	8	(1 - Paddon Hayden / Kennard John): It has been a pretty good day. The position we're in is not so enjoyable, you have to keep a rhythm. We're not driving in any cuts, we just have to keep it on the road. It's a difficult position we're in now.
31. 08. 2024 22:42 31. 08. 2024 23:42 CET	7	(37 - Grogan Keelan / Sherlock Ayrton): accident in SS 7
31. 08. 2024 22:41 31. 08. 2024 23:41 CET	7	(25 - Carlberg Calle / Eriksen Jørgen): puncture
31. 08. 2024 22:28 31. 08. 2024 23:28 CET	7	(15 - Pearson Garry / Barritt Daniel): I think unfortunately losing 10min before was pretty much the end for us in the BRC, so we just need to gain some experience.
31. 08. 2024 22:27 31. 08. 2024 23:27 CET	7	(17 - von Thurn und Taxis Albert / Christian Frank): Nothing I've ever done has prepared me for these stages, I feel like a total beginner in the car. We've been bottoming it out a lot, the car has been making a lot of vertical movements. I really need to train and come up to speed on these movements.
31. 08. 2024 22:27 31. 08. 2024 23:27 CET	7	(12 - Evans Meirion / Jackson Jonathan): There's four of us doing it for the first time, if you compare that time to the others first time it is not bad at all.
31. 08. 2024 22:27 31. 08. 2024 23:27 CET	7	(11 - Devine Callum / O’Sullivan Noel): We're on the soft side now with the tyre, trying to manage the driving and preserve the tyre. The guys behind us are not far away.
31. 08. 2024 22:26 31. 08. 2024 23:26 CET	7	(7 - Pryce Osian / Evans Rhodri): We didn't do this stage the first run through, that was our first run. Bit hairy as we only did it in transit, I expect we'll lose time to the other guys.
31. 08. 2024 22:26 31. 08. 2024 23:26 CET	7	(16 - Allen Philip / Drew Craig): Quite disappointed. I got out to see and there was no tyre damage so we drove on, but there's some time lost there.
31. 08. 2024 22:26 31. 08. 2024 23:26 CET	7	(10 - Edwards Matthew / Moynihan David): What's different? The lines you can take because of the knowledge from the first run, you know a little bit more after service because you know where the dirty stuff will be. The car is changing all the time. At the start you're trying to get everything to come in and at the end you're letting it all go, eg the brakes, et cetera. Everything gets hotter.
31. 08. 2024 22:25 31. 08. 2024 23:25 CET	7	(4 - Mabellini Andrea / Lenzi Virginia): I really enjoyed this one, we had a big moment at the end but I really enjoyed this. Really grateful for this.
31. 08. 2024 22:25 31. 08. 2024 23:25 CET	7	(18 - Tempestini Simone / Itu Sebastian): For sure we are a bit more comfortable, I enjoyed a lot these stages. I don't know if the time is okay, but it felt a lot better to understand the car. It was a nice one and we really enjoyed it.
31. 08. 2024 22:24 31. 08. 2024 23:24 CET	7	(9 - Cronin Keith / Galvin Mikie): Hayden seems to have done a way on his own, he has gone up another level this weekend.
31. 08. 2024 22:24 31. 08. 2024 23:24 CET	7	(8 - Ingram Chris / Kihurani Alexander): We need to leather it and get the BRC points today, refresh and full attack tomorrow.
31. 08. 2024 22:23 31. 08. 2024 23:23 CET	7	(3 - Marczyk Miko / Gospodarczyk Szymon): It's closer, but still it's some gap. It was quite a clean run, our improvement from the first one is bigger. I was doing my best. I feel quite confident with the car setup and I think we can do a good time with the last one.
31. 08. 2024 22:22 31. 08. 2024 23:22 CET	7	(5 - Armstrong Jon / Treacy Eoin): Just keep pushing on, felt better in this stage to be honest, got quite better rhythm. I feel Hayden is in slightly better rhythm. It's not too bad. He's an ex-WRC driver so he has loads of experience. We're not so far away but we have to be closer.
31. 08. 2024 22:20 31. 08. 2024 23:20 CET	7	(6 - Creighton William / Regan Liam): Without using swear words, it is difficult in there, one soft in the car now because of what happened earlier. Trying to save it for the BRC, we're trying to have a clean run. It's beautiful in there.
31. 08. 2024 22:19 31. 08. 2024 23:19 CET	7	(2 - Franceschi Mathieu / Malfoy Andy): 15sec? It's better because this morning we were 1sec per kilometre slower. Still no speed but now we don't think about the time, just try and enjoy the experience.
31. 08. 2024 22:19 31. 08. 2024 23:19 CET	7	(1 - Paddon Hayden / Kennard John): Definitely taking it easy, pushing on the parts where it's clean. Trying to look after the tyres. Not backing off because we want to keep a rhythm but on the tricky spots definitely keeping it easy.
31. 08. 2024 22:18 31. 08. 2024 23:18 CET	6	(15 - Pearson Garry / Barritt Daniel): We got through it and that is the best feeling we've had all day. We'll have to come back out tomorrow for the British championship. We have a different compound from this morning. It's definitely better and it's working okay.
31. 08. 2024 22:18 31. 08. 2024 23:18 CET	6	(17 - von Thurn und Taxis Albert / Christian Frank): Happy, totally. The time is okay, just trying to have fun and not look at the competition. Very tricky, very difficult and very fast. We're just trying to have fun.
31. 08. 2024 22:17 31. 08. 2024 23:17 CET	6	(12 - Evans Meirion / Jackson Jonathan): We had a lot of pop-off issues at the start, the first 5km I had no power. Hopefully that's the end of it.
31. 08. 2024 22:17 31. 08. 2024 23:17 CET	6	(11 - Devine Callum / O’Sullivan Noel): It's very warm, the road has changed a lot since this morning. We had a setup change and there is probably more mud. We'll push on now, the guys are pushing also. We enjoy it!
31. 08. 2024 22:17 31. 08. 2024 23:17 CET	6	(7 - Pryce Osian / Evans Rhodri): Pretty much the same as other drivers, seem to have fixed that handling issue but we seem to have fixed that harder tyre. More enjoyable run.
31. 08. 2024 22:16 31. 08. 2024 23:16 CET	6	(16 - Allen Philip / Drew Craig): The tyres gone off, cleaned in there a lot.
31. 08. 2024 22:16 31. 08. 2024 23:16 CET	6	(10 - Edwards Matthew / Moynihan David): A gravel tyre would be the right choice. We were talking to Cronin who had completely different options, on the dry stuff you can go but on the tough boggy stuff it's hard. There's lots of options.
31. 08. 2024 22:15 31. 08. 2024 23:15 CET	6	(4 - Mabellini Andrea / Lenzi Virginia): It's normal, I made my stage and it was okay, no issues. I am quite happy.
31. 08. 2024 22:15 31. 08. 2024 23:15 CET	6	(18 - Tempestini Simone / Itu Sebastian): Nice stage, very difficult but for sure a bit more easy now with one pass done. I have no idea about the times but for sure we enjoyed the stage.
31. 08. 2024 22:15 31. 08. 2024 23:15 CET	6	(9 - Cronin Keith / Galvin Mikie): Had a better feeling with the car that time, after not the best morning we went a bit safe with the tyre but we have spares.
31. 08. 2024 22:14 31. 08. 2024 23:14 CET	6	(8 - Ingram Chris / Kihurani Alexander): Much more grip, we're just a bit soft with tyres and car. It's okay.
31. 08. 2024 22:14 31. 08. 2024 23:14 CET	6	(3 - Marczyk Miko / Gospodarczyk Szymon): We make the car stiffer but it is really good grip here, we were expecting a lot of mixed conditions and no grip. It is difficult, it is like Rally Roma di Capitale or Rally Islas Canarias. We are getting better pace, thanks to Kresta Racing and I hope we can put a better standard out there.
31. 08. 2024 22:14 31. 08. 2024 23:14 CET	6	(6 - Creighton William / Regan Liam): We're just having a nightmare, sorry for the team. I touched something on the left and the wheel got damaged almost immediately. I'm sorry.
31. 08. 2024 22:13 31. 08. 2024 23:13 CET	6	(5 - Armstrong Jon / Treacy Eoin): It was a good run, I think Hayden Paddon is on a good push all day. Getting into a good rhythm and it'll be interesting to see what the other guys do around us.
31. 08. 2024 22:13 31. 08. 2024 23:13 CET	6	(6 - Creighton William / Regan Liam): puncture
31. 08. 2024 22:13 31. 08. 2024 23:13 CET	6	(2 - Franceschi Mathieu / Malfoy Andy): It feels better, we enjoy. That's all. We changed something and I have a bit more confidence. Like this I can enjoy the moment.
31. 08. 2024 22:12 31. 08. 2024 23:12 CET	6	(1 - Paddon Hayden / Kennard John): It's a lot dryer, there is a lot more tarmac and the grip is quite good. There is a lot more muddy corners, probably not the right tyre choice as I think we were expecting it to be a bit more muddy in the cuts, but it's good and fast.
31. 08. 2024 22:12 31. 08. 2024 23:12 CET	5	(19 - Kohn Filip / Woodburn Tom): Super hard, we just went through, nothing special. Just cruising.
31. 08. 2024 22:11 31. 08. 2024 23:11 CET	5	(15 - Pearson Garry / Barritt Daniel): was out of road
31. 08. 2024 22:11 31. 08. 2024 23:11 CET	5	(17 - von Thurn und Taxis Albert / Christian Frank): Okay, first stage we lost a lot of time. Difficult to get my confidence back to be honest. Let's see how the second loop goes.
31. 08. 2024 22:10 31. 08. 2024 23:10 CET	5	(12 - Evans Meirion / Jackson Jonathan): I think it helps having done it before because last year Williams did a job on us. The feeling was not as good as last year but I think we can work on that for this afternoon.
31. 08. 2024 22:10 31. 08. 2024 23:10 CET	5	(11 - Devine Callum / O’Sullivan Noel): There's a lot of cuts so the rhythm changed a lot, the grip was unpredictable at times. Oh well, back to service now.
31. 08. 2024 22:09 31. 08. 2024 23:09 CET	5	(7 - Pryce Osian / Evans Rhodri): Third quickest? Finally! It's taken a long time. Understeering everywhere. I'd lost my rhythm at the start because we had to stop for WIlliams at the start of the last stage, so thinking about him and how hard he's worked to get here. Had a few wobbles as it was at the back of my mind. I'm glad you've said that we were third fastest though, that has made it much better.
31. 08. 2024 22:09 31. 08. 2024 23:09 CET	5	(16 - Allen Philip / Drew Craig): It felt like good fun, felt it was too sideways in loads of places. I like that stage a lot, I like the first one too. Delighted with it.
31. 08. 2024 22:08 31. 08. 2024 23:08 CET	5	(10 - Edwards Matthew / Moynihan David): It was nice to show a little bit of pace now. Really tricky towards the end, lots of cuts and lots of mud like usual. We're dialling into it but still not particularly comfortable.
31. 08. 2024 22:08 31. 08. 2024 23:08 CET	5	(4 - Mabellini Andrea / Lenzi Virginia): Full of mud, it is impossible to trust the pace notes because every corner it is full of mud. If you enter a cut at 2kmh faster then you are out, so not the best one for us.
31. 08. 2024 22:08 31. 08. 2024 23:08 CET	5	(18 - Tempestini Simone / Itu Sebastian): It was a nice stage, it's so difficult for us to understand the rhythm and the grip. We had a lot of muds in the cuts so it is difficult to understand which one is dirty and which one is clean. We are trying to get used to this, it is not easy to get used to the new car but we are trying our best.
31. 08. 2024 22:07 31. 08. 2024 23:07 CET	5	(8 - Ingram Chris / Kihurani Alexander): Second quickest? The car felt amazing but I wasn't getting the most out of it. I'm not getting the most out of it yet, but I am pleased how it's going.
31. 08. 2024 22:07 31. 08. 2024 23:07 CET	5	(6 - Creighton William / Regan Liam): was out of road
31. 08. 2024 22:06 31. 08. 2024 23:06 CET	4	Stage is cancelled.
31. 08. 2024 22:06 31. 08. 2024 23:06 CET	4	(10 - Edwards Matthew / Moynihan David): Came a bit quick on us that's all, lots of fast stuff then slow and wet runs after. They usually catch you out. I though the first 4km was all flat, we had a half spin at the first acute hairpin. Shame about Williams, we had an otherwise reasonable run. The tyres are okay. It's a great showcase for the area, you almost want to stop halfway through the stage and have a look around because it's phenomenal. Great place to go for a picnic.
31. 08. 2024 22:06 31. 08. 2024 23:06 CET	4	(4 - Mabellini Andrea / Lenzi Virginia): Seems like a nice stage, we enjoyed it. The second pass will be a bit more tricky with mud coming from the cuts. We will see. I am getting used to driving on the left, when I am used to it, I must go home!
31. 08. 2024 22:05 31. 08. 2024 23:05 CET	4	(18 - Tempestini Simone / Itu Sebastian): It's like the first time for us, the pace notes were good but it was so difficult to trust the pace because there is a lot of dirty places. Sometimes, nothing happens and the road remains clean. We are trying to manage our pace and the condition, being in a new challenge.
31. 08. 2024 22:05 31. 08. 2024 23:05 CET	4	(9 - Cronin Keith / Galvin Mikie): Really difficult, it was hard to manage the cuts, there's a lot of mud and time in there, if you're willing to take big risks. Really tricky stage.
31. 08. 2024 22:04 31. 08. 2024 23:04 CET	4	Stage is stopped because of accident of car no. 14.
31. 08. 2024 22:03 31. 08. 2024 23:03 CET	4	(14 - Williams James / Whittock Ross): accident in SS 4
31. 08. 2024 22:03 31. 08. 2024 23:03 CET	4	(8 - Ingram Chris / Kihurani Alexander): Epic stage that! I felt I only drove a bit but as long as we're quicker than BRC guys, that is the focus.
31. 08. 2024 22:03 31. 08. 2024 23:03 CET	4	(3 - Marczyk Miko / Gospodarczyk Szymon): It's a stage for a real proper rally driver. When you are driving in fifth gear at 160kmh and you have some bottoming on the line, that is the advantage for Hayden being a WRC driver. It was tougher than expected.
31. 08. 2024 22:02 31. 08. 2024 23:02 CET	4	(5 - Armstrong Jon / Treacy Eoin): We spun in a junction and we probably lost 20sec there. The rest of the stage was okay, we could be a bit more committed, our pace is good. We just lose the rear on this junction, we'll see where we'll be at the end of the loop.
31. 08. 2024 22:02 31. 08. 2024 23:02 CET	4	(5 - Armstrong Jon / Treacy Eoin): spun
31. 08. 2024 22:02 31. 08. 2024 23:02 CET	4	(6 - Creighton William / Regan Liam): It was fine, I think we're on too soft a tyre. Everything was fine in the stage.
31. 08. 2024 22:01 31. 08. 2024 23:01 CET	4	(2 - Franceschi Mathieu / Malfoy Andy): I never find the feeling and when I try to have good rhythm, we slide. I think first of all it is me. The first part was nice. When I was next to the lake, it was bumpy, I don't know to be honest.
31. 08. 2024 22:01 31. 08. 2024 23:01 CET	4	(1 - Paddon Hayden / Kennard John): It's amazing to be here, but it's a tricky stage. On the recce it seems smooth, but here we are just bouncing off the bumps and the bottom is out here. The confidence is not too good when it's like that.
31. 08. 2024 21:56 31. 08. 2024 22:56 CET	3	(15 - Pearson Garry / Barritt Daniel): Very tricky start, struggled a bit to be honest and struggled to adapt to the conditions a bit.
31. 08. 2024 21:56 31. 08. 2024 22:56 CET	3	(17 - von Thurn und Taxis Albert / Christian Frank): We had a little mistake in the notes on a braking point after a long straight, there was a lot of gravel on the road. We went straight into a ditch, bit of a miracle we can continue to be honest.
31. 08. 2024 21:55 31. 08. 2024 22:55 CET	3	(17 - von Thurn und Taxis Albert / Christian Frank): was out of road
31. 08. 2024 21:55 31. 08. 2024 22:55 CET	3	(12 - Evans Meirion / Jackson Jonathan): Messy to be honest, we clipped the back halfway through and I think the back wheel is full of mud as it was vibrating through the straights.
31. 08. 2024 21:55 31. 08. 2024 22:55 CET	3	(11 - Devine Callum / O’Sullivan Noel): Very tricky, there is a lot of pollution out there on the stages, couple of wee mistakes in there and lost a wee bit of confidence there on the stages.
31. 08. 2024 21:54 31. 08. 2024 22:54 CET	3	(7 - Pryce Osian / Evans Rhodri): Bit sketchy, the first three corners are just wipeout. It did improve, we changed the car this morning so it was a case of getting back into the rhythm and trying to find my mojo again. It is what it is, we're happy.
31. 08. 2024 21:54 31. 08. 2024 22:54 CET	3	(16 - Allen Philip / Drew Craig): I had an overshoot and a stall, five right or five left I slid on and had to reverse. It is what it is, my own fault. Really enjoying the stage, class. Silly mistake.
31. 08. 2024 21:53 31. 08. 2024 22:53 CET	3	(16 - Allen Philip / Drew Craig): missed junction
31. 08. 2024 21:52 31. 08. 2024 22:52 CET	3	(14 - Williams James / Whittock Ross): It was hairy! That was my home stage, what an incredible feeling to go through that stage at that speed. I'm over the moon with that, I can't put it into words.
31. 08. 2024 21:52 31. 08. 2024 22:52 CET	3	(10 - Edwards Matthew / Moynihan David): It's not very pleasant really, you're just waiting to be caught out. It's not getting faster that's for sure.
31. 08. 2024 21:51 31. 08. 2024 22:51 CET	3	(4 - Mabellini Andrea / Lenzi Virginia): We started quite good in the first part, then some grip changes and you lose a bit of feeling because it starts moving a bit because there is muddy terrain. The second pass will be better I think, we have two big stages in front of us so we will try our best.
31. 08. 2024 21:51 31. 08. 2024 22:51 CET	3	(18 - Tempestini Simone / Itu Sebastian): It was a really difficult stage, I have no idea about the times for the others. We tried to go as fast as we can, we missed some feeling from the car. It was even wet in places with some mud. Let's see for the next.
31. 08. 2024 21:50 31. 08. 2024 22:50 CET	3	(9 - Cronin Keith / Galvin Mikie): The guys did a great job repairing the car after SS1, they didn't have a lot of time to do the job but they got us here.
31. 08. 2024 21:50 31. 08. 2024 22:50 CET	3	(8 - Ingram Chris / Kihurani Alexander): I thought we lost about 10sec or something, so time is really good actually. The car is a bit soft so we're going to stiffen it up for the next one.
31. 08. 2024 21:50 31. 08. 2024 22:50 CET	3	(3 - Marczyk Miko / Gospodarczyk Szymon): I was too cautious on this one, it is quite a lot. We go through and we can have some ideas on this stage what to do for the next one. Not consistent on this stage.
31. 08. 2024 21:49 31. 08. 2024 22:49 CET	3	(5 - Armstrong Jon / Treacy Eoin): Not too bad, I think Creighton changed a tyre early on and we were in his dust for a bit, there's for sure a lot of dry dust in the stages.
31. 08. 2024 21:47 31. 08. 2024 22:47 CET	3	(6 - Creighton William / Regan Liam): Right at the start of the stage, there was a small impact on the front left in a corner. On the recce it was fine, but we've got a flat wheel so not much else to say.
31. 08. 2024 21:44 31. 08. 2024 22:44 CET	3	(6 - Creighton William / Regan Liam): puncture
31. 08. 2024 21:44 31. 08. 2024 22:44 CET	3	(2 - Franceschi Mathieu / Malfoy Andy): It wasn't easy because the grip is changing every kilometre. To find the feeling every time is not easy, but it is not so bad on the first pass to check the pace notes. For sure, we enjoyed.
31. 08. 2024 21:44 31. 08. 2024 22:44 CET	3	(1 - Paddon Hayden / Kennard John): The car still feels really good, the grip is quite low this morning and it is changing from corner to corner. In hindsight you look back and think you could've pushed a lot more, but a tricky start to a Saturday.
31. 08. 2024 21:43 31. 08. 2024 22:43 CET	3	Weather in Wales is sunny, temperature around 20°C, roads are dry.
30. 08. 2024 21:49 30. 08. 2024 22:49 CET	2	(33 - Lloyd Ioan / Williams Sion): It's quite tricky to drive front wheel with the handbrake, I made a couple of mistakes on this one. The real rally starts tomorrow.
30. 08. 2024 21:49 30. 08. 2024 22:49 CET	2	(32 - McBride Kyle / Mullen Darragh): Been quite good, very tricky in there to be fair. Good to get the first few stages together in this car. Happy with those two stages and we're looking forward to the stages tomorrow.
30. 08. 2024 21:48 30. 08. 2024 22:48 CET	2	(31 - Brennan Jack / McGrath John): The handbrake is nearly worn out at this stage, enjoyable to race.
30. 08. 2024 21:48 30. 08. 2024 22:48 CET	2	(30 - Pesavento Davide / Zanella Flavio): I try my best, before I made one mistake. Now is better. Good round.
30. 08. 2024 21:47 30. 08. 2024 22:47 CET	2	(29 - Raftery Aoife / McKillop Hannah): A big relief to get it done! We struggled a lot, glad to get it out the way. It is a big relief because you just want to get it done.
30. 08. 2024 21:47 30. 08. 2024 22:47 CET	2	(28 - Schulz Timo / Wenzel Michael): Really good start to the rally, the stage is so much fun. So many people cheering for us, I am happy with the start. Let's see what we can do tomorrow, I think we are fighting for the front.
30. 08. 2024 21:46 30. 08. 2024 22:46 CET	2	(27 - Polášek Daniel / Omelka Zdeněk): It was a funny stage, quite short and good and I'm glad we did it twice. Some fun.
30. 08. 2024 21:46 30. 08. 2024 22:46 CET	2	(26 - McRae Max / Fair Cameron): It was a tricky little stage especially with the front wheel drive on the cold tyre, it's nice to see so many people out here and I feel it's gonna be a good weekend.
30. 08. 2024 21:45 30. 08. 2024 22:45 CET	2	(25 - Carlberg Calle / Eriksen Jørgen): It is difficult, very difficult. Even the super specials can be quite important sometimes. To be driving close to the sea here makes us feel like we are back in Las Palmas again. We'll see what the weather does and what tyres we use this weekend.
30. 08. 2024 21:45 30. 08. 2024 22:45 CET	2	(24 - Johansson Mille / Grönvall Johan): I don't really like this stage, I am always too careful but this time we need to push because there are four stages on this one. We need to push but I am still a little too scared.
30. 08. 2024 21:44 30. 08. 2024 22:44 CET	2	(23 - Kelly Eamonn / Kennedy Rory): Battling on roads like this would be mega, it is hard to gain much in there and we have to be careful. We'll see how tomorrow goes but we have to be careful.
30. 08. 2024 21:44 30. 08. 2024 22:44 CET	2	(19 - Kohn Filip / Woodburn Tom): Quite amazing, lot of people. Quite a tricky stage, lots of handbrake turns and it was quite fun.
30. 08. 2024 21:44 30. 08. 2024 22:44 CET	2	(18 - Tempestini Simone / Itu Sebastian): It felt good, it is a really nice stage for the people around here that come to follow us. For sure it is nothing compared to what we will have tomorrow, but it was also some fun.
30. 08. 2024 21:43 30. 08. 2024 22:43 CET	2	(17 - von Thurn und Taxis Albert / Christian Frank): Tricky, very tight, a lot of places where you can rip out a tyre!
30. 08. 2024 21:43 30. 08. 2024 22:43 CET	2	(16 - Allen Philip / Drew Craig): I run a little wide on the right rear corner, obviously cost me a bit of time. My fault.
30. 08. 2024 21:43 30. 08. 2024 22:43 CET	2	(15 - Pearson Garry / Barritt Daniel): It is tricky to be fair, nothing we haven't seen before. The organisers keep making it harder and harder so all credit to them and great to see the fans out.
30. 08. 2024 21:42 30. 08. 2024 22:42 CET	2	(14 - Williams James / Whittock Ross): To be honest I wasn't looking forward to it, but it was so much fun. It was like being Ken Block or something and that is my dream. So much fun.
30. 08. 2024 21:41 30. 08. 2024 22:41 CET	2	(12 - Evans Meirion / Jackson Jonathan): Never driven that aggressively here, usually stuck in traffic to be honest! Nearly stalled on the start line but luckily we didn't, now we're just excited for tomorrow.
30. 08. 2024 21:41 30. 08. 2024 22:41 CET	2	(11 - Devine Callum / O’Sullivan Noel): I'm happy, absolutely! Very happy, got through okay and the time is not bad.
30. 08. 2024 21:41 30. 08. 2024 22:41 CET	2	(10 - Edwards Matthew / Moynihan David): Very careful, we had a pop off in there which we had on the shakedown so we'll have to look out for that tomorrow. Happy to be here now but just looking forward to tomorrow.
30. 08. 2024 21:40 30. 08. 2024 22:40 CET	2	(9 - Cronin Keith / Galvin Mikie): We had a trouble with something in the front left, we have clipped sandbag, we'll check it in service.
30. 08. 2024 21:39 30. 08. 2024 22:39 CET	2	(8 - Ingram Chris / Kihurani Alexander): It was a really good stage, this is rally and scuffs happen. As long as four wheels are on it and we're on the podium, I'll be happy.
30. 08. 2024 21:39 30. 08. 2024 22:39 CET	2	(7 - Pryce Osian / Evans Rhodri): Tricky stage to start the rally, not too happy with the car as it seems to have understeer issues. Not a great start to the rally but the real action starts tomorrow.
30. 08. 2024 21:39 30. 08. 2024 22:39 CET	2	(6 - Creighton William / Regan Liam): I have a little family mascot, we have carried him for a few years and he has brought us some luck sometimes. We've carried him everywhere we've gone rallying.
30. 08. 2024 21:38 30. 08. 2024 22:38 CET	2	(5 - Armstrong Jon / Treacy Eoin): It's like trying to park in a multi storey car park! Trying to curb brand new rims. We dropped a bit of time in the first pass, not the fastest through here either and think we dropped a bit of time.
30. 08. 2024 21:38 30. 08. 2024 22:38 CET	2	(4 - Mabellini Andrea / Lenzi Virginia): It was funny, better in the previous one than this one. We tried to push a little bit more but that is not always the correct way to do this stage. Tomorrow will be a different one.
30. 08. 2024 21:38 30. 08. 2024 22:38 CET	2	(3 - Marczyk Miko / Gospodarczyk Szymon): It is quite tricky, in the past I have more confidence on these stages. In places I was really pushing and in some really tricky. Congrats to Hayden.
30. 08. 2024 21:37 30. 08. 2024 22:37 CET	2	(2 - Franceschi Mathieu / Malfoy Andy): I think I have to learn something because on city stage I lose too much time every time. I have to work for tomorrow as tomorrow is the real start. The stages are behind us.
30. 08. 2024 21:37 30. 08. 2024 22:37 CET	2	(1 - Paddon Hayden / Kennard John): Barum ruined our super special record! Great to see so many people out as well, glorious Welsh day and perfect way to start the weekend. As they say, the early bird gets the worm and that is us tomorrow.
30. 08. 2024 21:36 30. 08. 2024 22:36 CET	1	Weather in Aberystwyth is semi-cloudy, temperature around 20°C, road is dry.
30. 08. 2024 21:35 30. 08. 2024 22:35 CET	QS	(16 - Allen Philip / Drew Craig): Grand, just gonna take a bit of time. Haven't been here in a few years and the only tarmac rally we've done this year is Canaries.
30. 08. 2024 21:34 30. 08. 2024 22:34 CET	QS	(15 - Pearson Garry / Barritt Daniel): That was quite tricky, not been in the car for a while. The car is moving well, I think we've probably chosen the right tyres for this one to be fair.
30. 08. 2024 21:34 30. 08. 2024 22:34 CET	QS	(14 - Williams James / Whittock Ross): Today much better, yesterday not so good. Nice to be out on the stages. Been a while since we were on Tarmac, but it's going to get a bit better. Nice to be working a little bit with BRC, Hayden Paddon's team, hopefully I can learn a little bit.
30. 08. 2024 21:34 30. 08. 2024 22:34 CET	QS	(12 - Evans Meirion / Jackson Jonathan): It's not too bad, not the nicest stage in the world. We had tyre damage in here last year. The real rally starts tomorrow and that's what we're looking forward to.
30. 08. 2024 21:33 30. 08. 2024 22:33 CET	QS	(11 - Devine Callum / O’Sullivan Noel): We were off a bit on the pop-off, it felt okay. We're here.
30. 08. 2024 21:33 30. 08. 2024 22:33 CET	QS	(10 - Edwards Matthew / Moynihan David): It's a great opportunity for us and the British and Irish lads to get out on the FIA ERC, it's a small group of people that have worked really hard to get this event on the FIA ERC, so we had to come and be here.
30. 08. 2024 21:33 30. 08. 2024 22:33 CET	QS	(9 - Cronin Keith / Galvin Mikie): I found it quite slippery, got a bit of understeer. Lot of mud and stuff pulled out.
30. 08. 2024 21:32 30. 08. 2024 22:32 CET	QS	(8 - Ingram Chris / Kihurani Alexander): It's really good, my first Tarmac rally in the Toyota GR Yaris Rally2, so lots of learning and lots of fun.
30. 08. 2024 21:31 30. 08. 2024 22:31 CET	QS	(7 - Pryce Osian / Evans Rhodri): Dreadful. You know me on these qualifying stages I don't get along with them! I had a few moments but it is what it is and we'll crack on and do what we always do.
30. 08. 2024 21:31 30. 08. 2024 22:31 CET	QS	(6 - Creighton William / Regan Liam): I said at the end of the stage I was quite happy, we were pretty clean. I'm not used to starting the weekend going as flat out as you can to get a qualifying time so pretty new.
30. 08. 2024 21:31 30. 08. 2024 22:31 CET	QS	(17 - von Thurn und Taxis Albert / Christian Frank): Incredible! It's a tough stage to get up to speed with, we've improved quite significantly but others have as well. Let's see what the others bring. We're really happy to be here, we're here to have fun and get to know the rally.
30. 08. 2024 21:30 30. 08. 2024 22:30 CET	QS	(5 - Armstrong Jon / Treacy Eoin): Road position will be very important, we can see in this stage when it starts to dry up from pollution. Let's see where we end up. Could've b een even better in there but let's see for our pace this morning.
30. 08. 2024 21:30 30. 08. 2024 22:30 CET	QS	(4 - Mabellini Andrea / Lenzi Virginia): It's something that we are not used to, very fast and very narrow. We are trying our best this weekend, the main goal is to survive the road section, we are on the left side of the road and with left hand drive. On the roundabouts there is some big confusion in my head!
30. 08. 2024 21:29 30. 08. 2024 22:29 CET	QS	(18 - Tempestini Simone / Itu Sebastian): We are without headlight. I hope that is nothing, if you saw it, we have something broken. It was a tight exit in a right five and we touched the gravel. It's a big one, we missed a bit of time for sure. The stage was okay for us.
30. 08. 2024 21:28 30. 08. 2024 22:28 CET	QS	(3 - Marczyk Miko / Gospodarczyk Szymon): Perfect time from Paddon, we should go 1.5sec faster but not three, it is impossible on this stage. We need to see how others perform, then we know our starting position. It is important to be focused for the next few days, anything can happen.
30. 08. 2024 21:28 30. 08. 2024 22:28 CET	QS	(2 - Franceschi Mathieu / Malfoy Andy): Not bad stage, nothing special.
30. 08. 2024 21:28 30. 08. 2024 22:28 CET	QS	(1 - Paddon Hayden / Kennard John): We pushed, we know road position is important for tomorrow. The car is really dialled in and I'm fairly good for the weekend.
30. 08. 2024 13:00 30. 08. 2024 14:00 CET	SHAKEDOWN	(20 - Chorbiński Michał / Marczewski Michał): was out of road in third run
30. 08. 2024 12:25 30. 08. 2024 13:25 CET	SHAKEDOWN	(22 - Matulka Jakub / Dymurski Daniel): accident on shakedown
