28. 07. 2024 23:35 CET 13 retired (31 - Widłak Igor / Marczewski Michał): accident in SS 13
28. 07. 2024 16:54 CET 13 flash info (15 - Crugnola Andrea / Ometto Pietro Elia): Amazing feeling, it was very tough to control the race because I was thinking about the Italian championship. This race can be crucial for the future of the championship. I would like to thank Pietro, Sparco, Pirelli, all the sponsors and all the people close to us because they have helped us get here.
28. 07. 2024 16:52 CET 13 flash info (16 - Campedelli Simone / Canton Tania): I had a problem at the beginning of the first stage with intercom, fortunately that stage is very short and I didn't lose too much. We made a MacGyver in the road section, we enetered the long stage not really focused. We are so happy with this podium, for the team, I am really sorry because we would like to win, we gave everything. I will say congratulations to Crugnola.
28. 07. 2024 16:49 CET 13 flash info (2 - Llarena Efrén / Fernandez Sara): Very emotional, it has been a long [event]. I don't know what to say. Thank you to the team, thank you to the people that support us. Sometimes there is not some good times, but they're there.
28. 07. 2024 16:45 CET 13 flash info (6 - Tempestini Simone / Itu Sergiu): It was a really nice weekend for us, we are really happy with our pace. We didn't expect with the first kilometres with this car and such a long break on Tarmac to have quite good pace, it is good to fight for the first position. After yesterday we wanted a bit more, but at the end of the day we are at the end with this car. Our team is doing an amazing job and I wanted to finish the rally, thanks to all our partners for getting us here.
28. 07. 2024 16:41 CET 13 flash info (3 - Franceschi Mathieu / Malfoy Andy): It is good to be here and have points, I don't know the guys behind time. We had a moment 2km from the start. We'll see.
28. 07. 2024 16:38 CET 13 flash info (1 - Paddon Hayden / Kennard John): Frustrating weekend, we can be proud, we gave it all we got. Need to go back to drawing board, but I want to say thanks to the team, BRC, they are one of the best teams I've worked with. We'll hope to come back stronger.
28. 07. 2024 16:36 CET 13 flash info (20 - Avbelj Boštjan / Andrejka Damijan): It was a difficult stage for us, this one. We almost spun, we did some changes as we want to understand different setup changes for the car. Super happy, we didn't expect to do so well in the FIA ERC. This is a really nice result for us and the team and I want to thank them, they believe in us when we are not so good and I think this result is good payment for all.
28. 07. 2024 16:34 CET 13 flash info (26 - Daprà Roberto / Guglielmetti Luca): Amazing, it's such an incredible rally, we are so happy. It is the home rally where we won the Junior ERC race. It is an incredible result, we never expected this. I need to say thank you to Toni, a lot of people and teams that are helping me and I am really thankful to all these people.
28. 07. 2024 16:31 CET 13 flash info (18 - Basso Giandomenico / Granai Lorenzo): Today is better, we are more happy. Yesterday we didn't find the feeling but today we worked with my time and the car is getting better.
28. 07. 2024 16:30 CET 13 flash info (8 - Mabellini Andrea / Lenzi Virginia): I think we had a great run, today especially with the long one. We were at our maximum. I am happy that the tyre man from MRF came to see us and support us, thanks to MRF for the support. It is okay like this, I would like to thank everyone in the team for supporting us, it is not easy like this. Let's see for the others.
28. 07. 2024 16:27 CET 13 flash info (9 - Cais Erik / Bacigál Igor): We broke a steering arm. I am very sorry but we will say thank you to the fans, and we are going to rebuild the car and keep going.
28. 07. 2024 16:27 CET 13 flash info (7 - Marczyk Miko / Gospodarczyk Szymon): This one was demanding, during this stage I lost a bit of confidence. The race was difficult, on the Santapadre second pass we lost a lot of time. Today, tyre damage, we lost some time. We could've fought for position nine. I think we could've been fighting for some top guys. I think we can improve for the next one. I need to find more speed, more confidence and be the best version of myself for the next three rallies.
28. 07. 2024 16:22 CET 13 flash info (23 - Vincze Ferenc / Németh Gergely): I feel good, but we have a brake problem again yesterday. It was a difficult race and thank you to the whole team, family and Hungarian fans.
28. 07. 2024 16:21 CET 13 (9 - Cais Erik / Bacigál Igor): was out of road
28. 07. 2024 16:17 CET 13 flash info (12 - Mareš Filip / Bucha Radovan): For sure we have learnt a lot from this weekend so we can be satisfied with it. We hope we will bring all this experience from this weekend to Zlìn and it will be better than this one.
28. 07. 2024 16:16 CET 13 flash info (5 - Armstrong Jon / Treacy Eoin): We hit something at the beginning of the stage and the steering has been bent the whole way, lot of vibrations. Not our weekend, but we'll see what the time is like. Big thanks to M-Sport, Owen on the notes and also thanks to the team, Motorsport Ireland Academy, our sponsors. We're looking forward to the bumpy stuff at Rali Ceredigion.
28. 07. 2024 16:14 CET 13 flash info (33 - Kohn Filip / Woodburn Tom): Big emotions, really nice rally. Really nice to be here in the finish, the car really struggles in the heat. Well done to the whole team, my co-driver and thank you to my dad.
28. 07. 2024 15:34 CET 13 Starting order: Kohn, Armstrong, Mareš, Scattolon, Cais, Vincze, Marczyk, Wagner, Mabellini, Basso, Dapra, Avbelj, Paddon, Franceschi, Tempestii, Llarena, Campedelli, Crugnola
28. 07. 2024 16:18 CET 12 retired (21 - Andreucci Paolo / Briani Rudy): retired in SS 12
28. 07. 2024 15:27 CET 12 (24 - Březík Adam / Krajča Ondřej): problems with brakes
28. 07. 2024 15:12 CET 12 flash info (9 - Cais Erik / Bacigál Igor): I think the rhythm was really bad from us, I don't know why. I couldn't find a good speed, we finished the stage which makes me really happy and now we are looking for good pace on the Power Stage.
28. 07. 2024 15:11 CET 12 flash info (15 - Crugnola Andrea / Ometto Pietro Elia): We pushed quite hard, so I am really happy with my Citroën and the Pirellis because the weather is so hot and I can push since the beginning and manage the gap. We try to stay focussed and we'll see. I know the stage well like the other drivers because we are doing this stage since 2018. I am pretty happy in Rome.
28. 07. 2024 15:06 CET 12 flash info (6 - Tempestini Simone / Itu Sergiu): It was a really nice stage. We started with the mindset not to slide too much, we had some really nice sections but also a lot of slides. It is difficult to find the compromise to keep pushing and find the right lines. Let's see for the next one.
28. 07. 2024 15:05 CET 12 flash info (3 - Franceschi Mathieu / Malfoy Andy): It was a long stage, I tried to be clean, the car is moving a lot. It is difficult to know if it is good speed or not. The most important thing is to be in front of Hayden Paddon.
28. 07. 2024 15:02 CET 12 flash info (16 - Campedelli Simone / Canton Tania): Let' see for the Power Stage, I've tried honestly but in the last 10km, I didn't have very good direction. I didn't manage the tyres very well. It's okay.
28. 07. 2024 14:58 CET 12 flash info (2 - Llarena Efrén / Fernandez Sara): It depends on the road temperature. We try our best, but we'll see.
28. 07. 2024 14:57 CET 12 flash info (20 - Avbelj Boštjan / Andrejka Damijan): Pretty difficult, we missed the first lap and now the speeds are incredible. I think we managed the tyres well, the brakes and the car worked perfect so we have to be satisfied.
28. 07. 2024 14:55 CET 12 flash info (26 - Daprà Roberto / Guglielmetti Luca): Really hard, hotter than this morning. 3 sec from Basso is okay, we have 10. So now we have 7 sec going into the final stage. Now, we need to go and drink.
28. 07. 2024 14:54 CET 12 flash info (8 - Mabellini Andrea / Lenzi Virginia): In 32km, same time is not so bad. It is getting hotter, you can feel it while driving. In the middle part, we lost a little bit. The engine is not working as this morning. Now we will go for the Power Stage.
28. 07. 2024 14:51 CET 12 flash info (18 - Basso Giandomenico / Granai Lorenzo): Everything is okay, the pace is high. Tyre wear is okay. It's okay, no problem. Without mistake.
28. 07. 2024 14:49 CET 12 flash info (12 - Mareš Filip / Bucha Radovan): No issue to be honest. I don't know what to say, I tried my best that's for sure. It's slippery.
28. 07. 2024 14:49 CET 12 flash info (11 - Wagner Simon / Hain Jara): After lunch and changing the setup, I am feeling much more comfortable. It is much more fun and we are ready to go.
28. 07. 2024 14:48 CET 12 flash info (7 - Marczyk Miko / Gospodarczyk Szymon): It was better, thanks to the setup. Thanks to Roman Kresta cause he knows how to set up the car. We have tyre damage from the previous stage from I don't know what, I am happy with the time though and happy to go into the Power Stage.
28. 07. 2024 14:48 CET 12 flash info (5 - Armstrong Jon / Treacy Eoin): We'll give it a push for sure, we had quite good pace on the first time through the Power Stage so let's see if we can do anything. We had quite a tricky stage and temperature is higher than this morning.
28. 07. 2024 14:15 CET 12 50 °C asphalt temperature at the stop line
28. 07. 2024 23:33 CET 11 retired (91 - Di Giovanni Simone / Colapietro Andrea): retired after SS 11
28. 07. 2024 14:03 CET 11 flash info (9 - Cais Erik / Bacigál Igor): Definitely it was faster but there was a lot of lines where I couldn't go where I wanted to. There were a lot of sharp stones on the road which you have to avoid. Much better than the morning ones I think.
28. 07. 2024 14:03 CET 11 flash info (15 - Crugnola Andrea / Ometto Pietro Elia): With this gap, it is not enough. We have the 32km stage which is the longest of the rally. For the mindset, it is ok.
28. 07. 2024 14:03 CET 11 flash info (6 - Tempestini Simone / Itu Sergiu): It's impossible. We had a really good run until the middle of the stage. I have a pop-off open in the start, I think I make a little mistake with the clutch. Here in the end, we drove a little too fast, but in the end it was fun and it was okay.
28. 07. 2024 14:02 CET 11 flash info (3 - Franceschi Mathieu / Malfoy Andy): It's nice but I am driving really badly in this one, I don't know why.
28. 07. 2024 14:02 CET 11 flash info (1 - Paddon Hayden / Kennard John): Doesn't matter what happened, we're doing our own thing and enjoying it. Car is flying around a lot now, I don't know why, but it is. Just a nice Sunday drive.
28. 07. 2024 14:01 CET 11 flash info (2 - Llarena Efrén / Fernandez Sara): I am like a computer! I tried my best, this afternoon we have much more to fight for so it will be tough.
28. 07. 2024 14:01 CET 11 flash info (20 - Avbelj Boštjan / Andrejka Damijan): Not so good stage for us, in one of the fast corners we touched a little bank. A few other mistakes, I was expecting much more grip but sliding wide is an issue.
28. 07. 2024 14:01 CET 11 flash info (26 - Daprà Roberto / Guglielmetti Luca): Less understeer than this morning, we drive a bit better. Time seems better than this morning, happy with the stage so let's focus on the long one.
28. 07. 2024 14:00 CET 11 flash info (8 - Mabellini Andrea / Lenzi Virginia): I am at home, not really, but in Italy. I am glad so many are supporting us, it is so important for our humour. It was nice, we had a clean run, let's see in the next one.
28. 07. 2024 14:00 CET 11 flash info (18 - Basso Giandomenico / Granai Lorenzo): A little better, we are pushing. We will see, the next stage will be very long. Everything is okay, car is okay and getting better.
28. 07. 2024 13:59 CET 11 flash info (12 - Mareš Filip / Bucha Radovan): We have a hard tyre and we did some setup changes on the car, it seems that it is not working brilliantly but we will see on the long stage.
28. 07. 2024 13:59 CET 11 flash info (11 - Wagner Simon / Hain Jara): To be honest, the car is feeling a bit better, maybe we found something, but let's see for the long one.
28. 07. 2024 13:59 CET 11 flash info (7 - Marczyk Miko / Gospodarczyk Szymon): I don't know what happened, we started to lose that pressure, we were driving quite well but for the last 3km we were driving on tyre damage.
28. 07. 2024 13:59 CET 11 (7 - Marczyk Miko / Gospodarczyk Szymon): puncture
28. 07. 2024 13:38 CET 11 flash info (5 - Armstrong Jon / Treacy Eoin): We made a bit of an error going into one of the timing controls, these things happen and drivers make mistakes. We'll keep pushing through and see if we can get a result on the Power Stage.
28. 07. 2024 23:33 CET 10 retired (88 - Sancakli Tuncer / Sancakli Asena): retired after SS 10
28. 07. 2024 14:05 CET 10 retired (101 - Zanotti Maira / Bernardi Tania): retired after SS 10
28. 07. 2024 12:55 CET 10 retired (22 - Lefebvre Stéphane / Hamard Anthony): disqualified after SS 10 (not valid registration plate)
28. 07. 2024 10:58 CET 10 flash info (22 - Lefebvre Stéphane / Hamard Anthony): It's one of the trickiest rallies I've ever done, it is really demanding. When you know the stages you can be fast, but when you don't it is not easy. I will push now but when you see the board, the time is not nice.
28. 07. 2024 10:54 CET 10 flash info (19 - Scattolon Giacomo / Zanni Gabriele): The time is bad. It is very difficult!
28. 07. 2024 10:53 CET 10 flash info (23 - Vincze Ferenc / Németh Gergely): The same format, it's a clean stage but not perfect. We would like to be quicker.
28. 07. 2024 10:53 CET 10 flash info (46 - Signor Marco / Michi Daniele): For me it is the first time on this stage. Very difficult! Yesterday, not a good day for me. Today... maybe?
28. 07. 2024 10:53 CET 10 flash info (9 - Cais Erik / Bacigál Igor): A difficult stage, you have really fast sharp corners, it is difficult to find a good rhythm in this stage, but it is beautiful and a proper one.
28. 07. 2024 10:52 CET 10 flash info (15 - Crugnola Andrea / Ometto Pietro Elia): I am happy about the stage, we did it in 2018 so for sure the pace back in the day was different. I can improve a couple of corners by some margin on this stage. It looks okay at the moment but in Rome I always say "it is a long way to go", so we'll see.
28. 07. 2024 10:52 CET 10 flash info (6 - Tempestini Simone / Itu Sergiu): In some places I missed some speed, we expected to be more tight in some sections. This is our time for now in this stage.
28. 07. 2024 10:52 CET 10 flash info (3 - Franceschi Mathieu / Malfoy Andy): It was a new stage for us, I am too careful and braking too much. This is the result. It is not finished, two stages to go.
28. 07. 2024 10:52 CET 10 flash info (16 - Campedelli Simone / Canton Tania): Honestly, if you look at the time it is okay, I cannot say anything else. The feeling was not good in other places, I struggled a bit with the pace-notes. But considering the timing, I am happy.
28. 07. 2024 10:51 CET 10 flash info (1 - Paddon Hayden / Kennard John): I can't do anything, status quo and we'll just get it to the finish. This one was a brand new stage, some new pace notes but it's the same for everybody. These are some beautiful stages we're driving on so we just have to be grateful and swallow my pride on the other stuff.
28. 07. 2024 10:51 CET 10 flash info (2 - Llarena Efrén / Fernandez Sara): It went quite tricky. There are a lot of corners here, massive understeering. Not so happy.
28. 07. 2024 10:51 CET 10 flash info (20 - Avbelj Boštjan / Andrejka Damijan): It looks like a simple stage but it is really difficult, hard to find the rhythm and the limit, we'll improve for the second lap.
28. 07. 2024 10:50 CET 10 flash info (26 - Daprà Roberto / Guglielmetti Luca): Better than the previous one, we can do much better. Same thing as the first stage, much more commitment. We need to do a good one on the second loop. Sometimes yes, sometimes not relaxed. Not so easy, but it's very good.
28. 07. 2024 10:50 CET 10 flash info (8 - Mabellini Andrea / Lenzi Virginia): It's different, totally different from any other stage of this rally. There is quite a lot of grip, we didn't trust it from the beginning. In the second pass we will fix it. Now for service and to enjoy the rest of the day.
28. 07. 2024 10:49 CET 10 flash info (18 - Basso Giandomenico / Granai Lorenzo): So-so. I didn't drive very well in this stage. So-so.
28. 07. 2024 10:49 CET 10 flash info (12 - Mareš Filip / Bucha Radovan): I don't know what happened, there was a stone in one of the first corners in the stage in the line. Then after the first right corner we almost hit the mountain, so we are lucky to be here.
28. 07. 2024 10:49 CET 10 (12 - Mareš Filip / Bucha Radovan): puncture
28. 07. 2024 10:48 CET 10 flash info (11 - Wagner Simon / Hain Jara): Nice stage, very twisty and narrow. Let's see, we still have to improve.
28. 07. 2024 10:48 CET 10 flash info (7 - Marczyk Miko / Gospodarczyk Szymon): It is a little bit like Rally Islas Canarias but is a bit more tricky on the insides, there are a few areas where it can't be so close as the grip is not so good.
28. 07. 2024 10:47 CET 10 flash info (5 - Armstrong Jon / Treacy Eoin): It's a really cool stage, difficult to get pace notes right, but good for most of it. The tunnels were really good, similar to Monte Carlo. Think we're not close with the front runners. The last corner was really interesting.
28. 07. 2024 09:47 CET 9 The crew of car #4, Mads Østberg and Patrik Barth ran wide in a left-hander around halfway through the stage and impacted a tree. The Norwegian, alongside co-driver Patrik Barth, have been taken to the local hospital for precautionary checks.
28. 07. 2024 09:38 CET 9 Stage is cancelled.
28. 07. 2024 09:32 CET 9 Stage is stopped.
28. 07. 2024 09:31 CET 9 retired (4 - Østberg Mads / Barth Patrik): accident in SS 9
28. 07. 2024 09:30 CET 9 flash info (8 - Mabellini Andrea / Lenzi Virginia): It was not so bad, we keep our pace, no mistakes. For sure, in the ERC it is impossible to finish the stage without any moments but it is part of the stage when you are pushing like this. I think the pace is quite high.
28. 07. 2024 09:30 CET 9 flash info (18 - Basso Giandomenico / Granai Lorenzo): My feeling is getting better, but for now, not good.
28. 07. 2024 09:30 CET 9 flash info (12 - Mareš Filip / Bucha Radovan): These tyres are not too soft and it's showing that the tyres are working really well on this stage, it is for sure the hardest stage I've ever done and it's about being clever on these types of stages.
28. 07. 2024 09:30 CET 9 flash info (11 - Wagner Simon / Hain Jara): It's an incredible stage and it is very nice to have the Italian colours on the rims. We are enjoying.
28. 07. 2024 09:29 CET 9 flash info (7 - Marczyk Miko / Gospodarczyk Szymon): It was a nice one, but we struggled with understeer around 12-15km from the start. I struggled in the longer corners to put the car into the corner. I hit some bank, fortunately nothing happened. But maybe a little bit too much understeer.
28. 07. 2024 09:29 CET 9 flash info (5 - Armstrong Jon / Treacy Eoin): It wasn't too bad, we're still struggling for ultimate performance. I think this one was a bit better for us, we're still losing time. Really beautiful stage, this is what makes rallying the best sport. A lot of people say circuit racing, but in rallying, every metre is different.
28. 07. 2024 09:00 CET 8 retired (39 - Pisani Gianandrea / Moriconi Massimo): accident in SS 8
28. 07. 2024 08:41 CET 8 (24 - Březík Adam / Krajča Ondřej): was out of road
28. 07. 2024 08:34 CET 8 flash info (21 - Andreucci Paolo / Briani Rudy): The feeling is a little better than yesterday. Some new stuff for setup, we'll try for the long stage.
28. 07. 2024 08:29 CET 8 flash info (22 - Lefebvre Stéphane / Hamard Anthony): I have no idea to be honest, we changed the car but it doesn't feel better. We have more front but we lose the rear everywhere!
28. 07. 2024 08:28 CET 8 flash info (19 - Scattolon Giacomo / Zanni Gabriele): Not bad, but the time is so-so. For me it is no good.
28. 07. 2024 08:28 CET 8 flash info (23 - Vincze Ferenc / Németh Gergely): Very good, very good stage. The setup is working well. We will see. Difficult day.
28. 07. 2024 08:28 CET 8 flash info (9 - Cais Erik / Bacigál Igor): Seems to be okay, the end of the stage was much slippier than expected. We need a bit more power steering in the corners and not in the exits.
28. 07. 2024 08:24 CET 8 flash info (15 - Crugnola Andrea / Ometto Pietro Elia): I hope so for a big fight, it's a short stage and it went quite well. We made a couple of mistakes like everyone because it is impossible to do a perfect stage. I am happy with my stage.
28. 07. 2024 08:22 CET 8 flash info (6 - Tempestini Simone / Itu Sergiu): We feel good, it's a bit too early. The speed was quite high and I am not used to that at this time of day, but for the one longer we will be more ready.
28. 07. 2024 08:21 CET 8 flash info (3 - Franceschi Mathieu / Malfoy Andy): Felt okay, short run. This is like shakedown now, the best one coming soon.
28. 07. 2024 08:20 CET 8 flash info (16 - Campedelli Simone / Canton Tania): I'm always struggling a bit more to awaken on the first stage of the morning. It is not so bad, maybe I meet some corners not properly but generally it is fine.
28. 07. 2024 08:16 CET 8 flash info (1 - Paddon Hayden / Kennard John): No managing in our situation, we're just trying to go as fast as we can. We had a clean stage, a bit short, but the big stage is going to be key.
28. 07. 2024 08:14 CET 8 flash info (2 - Llarena Efrén / Fernandez Sara): Of course [I am ready for a Sunday fight!]. That is my biggest point.
28. 07. 2024 08:12 CET 8 flash info (20 - Avbelj Boštjan / Andrejka Damijan): Pretty good rhythm, let's see for the long one but the fast guys are coming. Let's see at the end.
28. 07. 2024 08:11 CET 8 flash info (26 - Daprà Roberto / Guglielmetti Luca): Not so good, the feeling was not good. I think we missed a bit of grip on the braking. Let's push on the long stage.
28. 07. 2024 08:11 CET 8 flash info (4 - Østberg Mads / Barth Patrik): It's a quick morning, it was quite okay. Some new grip and new discovery, I expected this stage to be quite similar to yesterday as they are close to each other. I was wrong, it was quite slippery in here but we managed okay. I am okay, I like the long stages. For me, they could all be that length.
28. 07. 2024 08:11 CET 8 flash info (8 - Mabellini Andrea / Lenzi Virginia): It's a good start to the day just to warm up a bit, quite short and a little bit faster than the others. No problem for this one, let's see the 32km one.
28. 07. 2024 08:10 CET 8 flash info (18 - Basso Giandomenico / Granai Lorenzo): I think it went okay, yesterday we did some change. Yesterday I didn't have a good feeling, but now we will see on the next stage.
28. 07. 2024 08:09 CET 8 flash info (12 - Mareš Filip / Bucha Radovan): Discussion is still there on the table [for tyres], but both of the tyre compounds are performing well on these stages. On this tyre, I have a softer run, but the others are working pretty well. We will probably take the harder one of the afternoon.
28. 07. 2024 08:09 CET 8 flash info (11 - Wagner Simon / Hain Jara): It's not so early, normally I am waking up earlier! Good start, difficult stage with lots of long corners. Now I am waiting for the long one.
28. 07. 2024 07:58 CET 8 flash info (7 - Marczyk Miko / Gospodarczyk Szymon): We are starting quite early, but we still managed to be here before 8! I appreciate our starting position because the road is clean and we will be on the long one before the very hot weather.
28. 07. 2024 07:58 CET 8 flash info (5 - Armstrong Jon / Treacy Eoin): The next stage is one of the real cool ones of the rally and one of the best of the season. This stage is like a hillclimb, not expecting anything special on the times but we keep going, see if we can improve and keep pushing.
28. 07. 2024 08:47 CET 7 retired (103 - Tang Junzhe / Chong Victor): retired after SS 7
27. 07. 2024 23:19 CET 7 retired (47 - Re Alessandro / Vozzo Marco): retired after SS 7
27. 07. 2024 23:18 CET 7 retired (87 - Denizci Keskin Kübra / Vatansever Onur): retired after SS 7
27. 07. 2024 19:22 CET 7 flash info (15 - Crugnola Andrea / Ometto Pietro Elia): For sure we can do more, but it's like that. I have nothing to add. I am happy with my performance throughout today, we are doing a good job for the Italian championship. We will see tomorrow, I think it will be quite tough.
27. 07. 2024 19:21 CET 7 flash info (21 - Andreucci Paolo / Briani Rudy): I arrive in there and it took longer in the braking, because there was a mistake.
27. 07. 2024 19:21 CET 7 flash info (5 - Armstrong Jon / Treacy Eoin): It's hard to be happy completely with where we are, we struggled with the rhythm and the balance. On these stages it's hard to get the rhythm. We'll speak to Pancho and the rest of the lads in service and see what we can do tomorrow, but it's just flat out.
27. 07. 2024 19:20 CET 7 (21 - Andreucci Paolo / Briani Rudy): spun
27. 07. 2024 18:48 CET 7 flash info (23 - Vincze Ferenc / Németh Gergely): We changed the setup on the dampers. I enjoyed the day. Difficult day and the car could be better.
27. 07. 2024 18:48 CET 7 flash info (18 - Basso Giandomenico / Granai Lorenzo): I had damage for the last two kilometres, this is an unlucky day.
27. 07. 2024 18:47 CET 7 (18 - Basso Giandomenico / Granai Lorenzo): puncture
27. 07. 2024 18:47 CET 7 flash info (24 - Březík Adam / Krajča Ondřej): This loop was much better. Just want to enjoy tomorrow.
27. 07. 2024 18:46 CET 7 flash info (4 - Østberg Mads / Barth Patrik): It's a new event and I can feel that, my first loop this morning was a bit embarrassing. It doesn't matter how much experience you have, the grip is changing and we are learning as we go. With experience you gain more than normal events so it's good fun here. The plan tomorrow is to complete the day at Rally di Roma Capitale.
27. 07. 2024 18:46 CET 7 flash info (22 - Lefebvre Stéphane / Hamard Anthony): We tried to give it our all, at the end the time is not so good. It was a long day, hard to understand which way to find the setup. It is like that and we'll find some solution for tomorrow.
27. 07. 2024 18:45 CET 7 flash info (6 - Tempestini Simone / Itu Sergiu): I want to thank Campedelli, he gave me the onboard for this stage. I am happy with our day, it was a good one, we are happy with each stage. And like Sergiu Itu says, Happy Birthday Norbert.
27. 07. 2024 18:44 CET 7 flash info (12 - Mareš Filip / Bucha Radovan): I tried to be less aggressive in this stage, you need to find a way to cruise in the stage. Definitely the feeling was much better in the first pass. It was quite a good day for us, we will try to continue like that for tomorrow and take the positives from today.
27. 07. 2024 18:44 CET 7 flash info (16 - Campedelli Simone / Canton Tania): The difference is, even in the last stages I tried my best. On this one, the time comes easy. We are in the middle of the battle, the time continues like this, thinking about the Italian championship. I like that I can battle, usually they are so fast. Let's see for tomorrow.
27. 07. 2024 18:44 CET 7 flash info (7 - Marczyk Miko / Gospodarczyk Szymon): We'll say it is an OK day, despite the Santopadre stage on the previous loop. Other stages were okay but we lost a lot on the long day. We tried to be consistent and save the pace.
27. 07. 2024 18:44 CET 7 flash info (26 - Daprà Roberto / Guglielmetti Luca): It feels amazing, we had tyre damage in the first stage of the second loop, so we ran a new tyre on the new loop. Luckily that tyre just finished. The level is very high, one or two seconds between the other drivers. Let's continue this way.
27. 07. 2024 18:43 CET 7 flash info (1 - Paddon Hayden / Kennard John): I can't make this car go any faster at the moment. We're doing the best we can, we left nothing on the table today.
27. 07. 2024 18:43 CET 7 flash info (20 - Avbelj Boštjan / Andrejka Damijan): Of this loop, this was the best stage for us. We found a good rhythm, we have to be satisfied with today. Top 10 is a great result, but it is important for us in the Italian national championship, this is our goal for the weekend.
27. 07. 2024 18:42 CET 7 flash info (8 - Mabellini Andrea / Lenzi Virginia): It's the same feeling cause the stage is the same. I did a little bit better, I tried to change myself, I used the handbrake to change the car. I used third gear in the corners and it seemed a little better.
27. 07. 2024 18:41 CET 7 flash info (11 - Wagner Simon / Hain Jara): For sure not an easy one, we really enjoy it though and can't wait to be back tomorrow.
27. 07. 2024 18:41 CET 7 flash info (2 - Llarena Efrén / Fernandez Sara): We did some changes on the service, so car is working much better and now in one corner we hit some pollution and I almost went out! Anyway, we are happy.
27. 07. 2024 18:41 CET 7 flash info (9 - Cais Erik / Bacigál Igor): It seems like they know something we don't, we tried to push to be honest. The line was not that great sometimes. You have to learn how to drive on these, we really enjoyed this one, the car is working well, so all good and looking forward to tomorrow.
27. 07. 2024 18:40 CET 7 flash info (3 - Franceschi Mathieu / Malfoy Andy): I think it was a really nice day for us, we have gone step-by-step and the feeling is back. Tomorrow is a big stage again with the long stage, I have to check the pace notes and see what we can do.
27. 07. 2024 20:41 CET 6 retired (78 - Ricciu Mattia / Corda Marco): accident in SS 6
27. 07. 2024 20:40 CET 6 retired (76 - Savoia Riccardo / Budoia Andrea): retired in SS 6
27. 07. 2024 20:40 CET 6 retired (34 - Ravenščak Martin / Ravenščak Dora): retired in SS 6
27. 07. 2024 18:40 CET 6 flash info (15 - Crugnola Andrea / Ometto Pietro Elia): When you are overthinking you drive bad, I was too careful with all the rocks on the road. By the way, I'm fine, I avoided any puncture which was my first goal on the stage. I don't think it is a disadvantage being this late on the road.
27. 07. 2024 18:40 CET 6 flash info (21 - Andreucci Paolo / Briani Rudy): A little better, but it is not perfect. Now, the road temperature is hotter and it makes the tyres more difficult to drive.
27. 07. 2024 18:39 CET 6 flash info (5 - Armstrong Jon / Treacy Eoin): It felt a bit better in places but still struggling quite a lot with understeer. We'll see if we can improve it, but it's hard to get a rhythm. We've been trying lots of different things so hopefully we'll figure it out.
27. 07. 2024 18:39 CET 6 flash info (19 - Scattolon Giacomo / Zanni Gabriele): Many cuts, but my time is good. The stage is very slippery, but all good.
27. 07. 2024 18:39 CET 6 flash info (23 - Vincze Ferenc / Németh Gergely): Little bit of a problem with the brakes, not good. Lots of dirt on the stage, little bit slow with a clean run. But we enjoyed it.
27. 07. 2024 18:38 CET 6 flash info (18 - Basso Giandomenico / Granai Lorenzo): It's very difficult, we are pushing but it is not enough. I don't know why.
27. 07. 2024 18:38 CET 6 flash info (24 - Březík Adam / Krajča Ondřej): It's okay, we aren't here for some results so it is okay. The heat is unbelievable.
27. 07. 2024 18:38 CET 6 flash info (4 - Østberg Mads / Barth Patrik): It felt better but the time is not so good, it is a lot more pollution on the road with the gravel so maybe I was too careful.
27. 07. 2024 18:37 CET 6 flash info (22 - Lefebvre Stéphane / Hamard Anthony): A bit better on the front end but I am not on full confidence with the car, so it is like that. It is a new rally for me so it is difficult to see where the dust and pollution is but it is like that.
27. 07. 2024 18:37 CET 6 flash info (6 - Tempestini Simone / Itu Sergiu): We enjoyed this stage a lot, it is one of our favourite stages. For sure we did a great job in the test. Last year I had to take care of understeering a lot. Now if I want, I can oversteer a lot. We have to take care a lot as we are on good pace. The grip is not so good, the tyres are doing a very good job. I will try my best for the last one.
27. 07. 2024 18:36 CET 6 flash info (12 - Mareš Filip / Bucha Radovan): Honestly, different tyre choice is working quite well. For sure, it was really slippery close to end of the stage. There were some moments but we still have space to improve. It is a softer compound.
27. 07. 2024 18:36 CET 6 flash info (16 - Campedelli Simone / Canton Tania): It was a bit more dirty in places, I think judging by the road places we did a good time.
27. 07. 2024 18:36 CET 6 flash info (7 - Marczyk Miko / Gospodarczyk Szymon): From the feeling it was not so bad. I don't know I was trying, but it is what it is. I would say the driving is more clean and proper in some places, but we need to check it.
27. 07. 2024 18:36 CET 6 flash info (26 - Daprà Roberto / Guglielmetti Luca): It's very fun, especially on the first time in the ERC with this incredible car. Very fun, very tricky with these dirty places. Now I need to drink a lot, but it is very fun and we are enjoying.
27. 07. 2024 18:35 CET 6 flash info (1 - Paddon Hayden / Kennard John): The brakes are fine, it's more the tyres going soft and spongey so that is where you lose most of the grip in the tyres. We had a good stage, can't do a lot more than that.
27. 07. 2024 18:35 CET 6 flash info (20 - Avbelj Boštjan / Andrejka Damijan): We didn't expect so much dirt, but our goal is to arrive at the finish. All okay for now.
27. 07. 2024 18:35 CET 6 flash info (8 - Mabellini Andrea / Lenzi Virginia): I was just driving. Nothing to tell. I drive and that is the time. I cannot do anything more than this. I drive in the same way, the split was the same, but cannot do more than this.
27. 07. 2024 18:34 CET 6 flash info (11 - Wagner Simon / Hain Jara): Even if the time is not perfect, we still had a lot of fun, clean stage. Even if I am braking too much the brakes still have a lot in them.
27. 07. 2024 18:34 CET 6 flash info (2 - Llarena Efrén / Fernandez Sara): I come in so fast because I need to go the toilet!
27. 07. 2024 18:34 CET 6 flash info (9 - Cais Erik / Bacigál Igor): It's really hard to stay focussed. It's the same for everyone, really hard stage. Michelin tyres work quite well. I don't think we have the confidence to push that hard, for now I will manage it.
27. 07. 2024 18:34 CET 6 flash info (3 - Franceschi Mathieu / Malfoy Andy): Nice stage. It's really enjoyable. The car is moving a bit more but I love this stage. If I can be back on the start, it's okay for me.
27. 07. 2024 18:33 CET 5 retired (70 - De Grazia Salvatore / Montavoci Sara): retired after SS 5
27. 07. 2024 15:30 CET 5 flash info (15 - Crugnola Andrea / Ometto Pietro Elia): The stage is quite tricky so we prefer to push, but not 100 percent. Our goal with the Italian championship looks good so far.
27. 07. 2024 15:24 CET 5 flash info (21 - Andreucci Paolo / Briani Rudy): The feeling is better than this morning, it is not perfect but it is better than the first pass.
27. 07. 2024 15:24 CET 5 flash info (5 - Armstrong Jon / Treacy Eoin): Step in the right direction for sure, let's keep trying. Now I can drive a bit more like I want to, let's keep going. [Bancho] has been keeping me busy and I've been keeping me busy, the team are working really hard now so let's keep going.
27. 07. 2024 15:24 CET 5 flash info (19 - Scattolon Giacomo / Zanni Gabriele): In this stage, I drive good. But, the time is so-so and [we get] nothing
27. 07. 2024 15:23 CET 5 flash info (23 - Vincze Ferenc / Németh Gergely): We have no grip, lot of gravel on the road and we have brake problems, same as the morning.
27. 07. 2024 15:23 CET 5 flash info (18 - Basso Giandomenico / Granai Lorenzo): I don't have a big feeling with the car. I didn't make a mistake.
27. 07. 2024 15:22 CET 5 flash info (24 - Březík Adam / Krajča Ondřej): We have some kilometres here so we will get better and better, step by step.
27. 07. 2024 15:22 CET 5 flash info (4 - Østberg Mads / Barth Patrik): We try to tackle the loop better. Straight away I feel a bit more comfortable when I am repeating the stages. We need to carry on like I did now. The car is working now, we did some small changes. Nothing too new for the second pass, just more mindset and feeling comfortable.
27. 07. 2024 15:21 CET 5 flash info (22 - Lefebvre Stéphane / Hamard Anthony): It's a bit better, I think we started to find the way to work. We lost five seconds on this small stage.
27. 07. 2024 15:21 CET 5 flash info (6 - Tempestini Simone / Itu Sergiu): The real target is to enjoy and be happy about this oppportunity we have, the stages today are really nice and we like them so we are feeling good for the moment. The 30km stage will be a real challenge for everybody.
27. 07. 2024 15:20 CET 5 flash info (12 - Mareš Filip / Bucha Radovan): This run was better than the first pass, we changed something in the service where we tried to find some extra speed. I really enjoyed this one but we will see for the long one.
27. 07. 2024 15:20 CET 5 flash info (16 - Campedelli Simone / Canton Tania): Everything is working right now, we made a couple of small changes that give me a bit more confidence for the car. Let's see for the next one.
27. 07. 2024 15:20 CET 5 flash info (7 - Marczyk Miko / Gospodarczyk Szymon): I feel really well, time could be a little bit faster but we are in a group of really fast drivers. Now for the long stage, Santopadre, I hope we can make a difference on this stage.
27. 07. 2024 15:19 CET 5 flash info (26 - Daprà Roberto / Guglielmetti Luca): I didn't like this stage, it is hard for me to find a good rhythm. There was a dirty corner wide and we went right and hit a hole, we thought we damaged something. So we'll see.
27. 07. 2024 15:19 CET 5 flash info (1 - Paddon Hayden / Kennard John): Not too many changes as there is more gravel pulled out, it was a messy stage for us. Surprised we didn't lose more time as we didn't really gel very well.
27. 07. 2024 15:18 CET 5 flash info (20 - Avbelj Boštjan / Andrejka Damijan): We had some changes but the feeling here is good. In the junction we went a little too wide and almost spun. It's okay, let's keep going.
27. 07. 2024 15:18 CET 5 flash info (8 - Mabellini Andrea / Lenzi Virginia): The pop-off valve opened three times. I am losing some time.
27. 07. 2024 15:18 CET 5 flash info (11 - Wagner Simon / Hain Jara): Quite similar to the morning, I was hoping for a bigger step of difference but let's see for the other stages.
27. 07. 2024 15:17 CET 5 flash info (2 - Llarena Efrén / Fernandez Sara): We made some changes, the car is working. More weather, let's see. I think this afternoon will be really long.
27. 07. 2024 15:17 CET 5 flash info (9 - Cais Erik / Bacigál Igor): The time is not as bad as the morning but we had a big moment in the morning. In some places, I was surprised there was not so much dust but in some places there was a lot.
27. 07. 2024 13:27 CET 4 Stage is stopped.
27. 07. 2024 13:24 CET 4 retired (38 - Pesavento Davide / Gonella Nicoló): accident in SS 4
27. 07. 2024 12:41 CET 4 flash info (18 - Basso Giandomenico / Granai Lorenzo): We are pushing, I don't know what is going on. Now, I am thinking how I can get faster.
27. 07. 2024 12:41 CET 4 flash info (24 - Březík Adam / Krajča Ondřej): We did a puncture, I hit something, maybe some stone.
27. 07. 2024 12:41 CET 4 (24 - Březík Adam / Krajča Ondřej): puncture
27. 07. 2024 12:40 CET 4 flash info (4 - Østberg Mads / Barth Patrik): We have some things to sort out, because it is not working so great. We will fix that, the team is already aware so they will fix that. For the afternoon we need to fix the speed, it has not been easy discovering these roads, but we are here for the first time and everyone else has been here before. It is weird having so much experience but to be here where everything is new. Now, I will check my pace notes and watch some onboards.
27. 07. 2024 12:40 CET 4 flash info (22 - Lefebvre Stéphane / Hamard Anthony): It was a tricky first loop for us. I have struggled with the car, I know where I lost the time but I can do more.
27. 07. 2024 12:40 CET 4 flash info (6 - Tempestini Simone / Itu Sergiu): We enjoyed this one, I have not had a really clean run. We touched a stone at the beginning, I was thinking about that and I had a few corners where I pushed a bit too much. It's nice, we are learning the car, enjoying the Tarmac and we are happy.
27. 07. 2024 12:39 CET 4 flash info (12 - Mareš Filip / Bucha Radovan): Difficult stage, I am usually not the best one on this stage but I tried to precise and aggressive and on the limit of the tyre. We need to continue working and I hope that it is going to be better.
27. 07. 2024 12:39 CET 4 flash info (16 - Campedelli Simone / Canton Tania): Usually I have more grip with this one, but the guys in front of me they are cutting. It has been a good stage, not so easy to understand. I tried to push but it is difficult to understand if the pace is right. I tried to be quick on the first one.
27. 07. 2024 12:39 CET 4 flash info (7 - Marczyk Miko / Gospodarczyk Szymon): I would say every stage was better and better and I have more and more fun, we hope to continue like that. This was typical Italy, we drove a little bit quick for a part, this is the idea for the second loop; to drive a little bit quicker on each of the stages.
27. 07. 2024 12:39 CET 4 flash info (26 - Daprà Roberto / Guglielmetti Luca): From the inside it seems a bad stage, but the time is not bad so we are happy. We have a bit of understeering so we try and work with it but it is okay, thank you.
27. 07. 2024 12:38 CET 4 flash info (1 - Paddon Hayden / Kennard John): We're fighting with what we've got, we're doing the best job we can. This stage was a bit harder for the car, lots of uphill which she doesn't really like, prefers the downhill. The car is alright.
27. 07. 2024 12:38 CET 4 flash info (20 - Avbelj Boštjan / Andrejka Damijan): In general we can be happy, first stage win in a European championship is nice. I think we can do a bit better in this stage, we can find something in the car.
27. 07. 2024 12:37 CET 4 flash info (8 - Mabellini Andrea / Lenzi Virginia): Not the best one. Many corners missed, many corners.
27. 07. 2024 12:36 CET 4 flash info (11 - Wagner Simon / Hain Jara): We have a lot of understeering, trying to sort this out and then let's see. Lot of ideas.
27. 07. 2024 12:34 CET 4 flash info (2 - Llarena Efrén / Fernandez Sara): It was quite okay, for sure I need to do some changes on the setup but we are more or less happy.
27. 07. 2024 12:34 CET 4 flash info (9 - Cais Erik / Bacigál Igor): It was okay, I never did it in this way so new stage for me. It is a really difficult one corner to corner, we really enjoyed it so we have improved a lot. Hopefully we can improve into the next loop.
27. 07. 2024 12:34 CET 4 flash info (3 - Franceschi Mathieu / Malfoy Andy): It was a normal morning, we find confidence again so we are going step by step. In this one the grip is really low, so we were careful. Now we check the pace notes and the car. The temperature in the car is like 40 degrees celsius.
27. 07. 2024 13:21 CET 3 Stage was cancelled.
27. 07. 2024 13:20 CET 3 Stage was stopped.
27. 07. 2024 13:16 CET 3 retired (83 - Greco Matteo / Brovelli Edoardo): accident in SS 3
27. 07. 2024 12:40 CET 3 (57 - Tomek David / Baďura Vítězslav): spun
27. 07. 2024 11:33 CET 3 flash info (15 - Crugnola Andrea / Ometto Pietro Elia): I was trying to drive in my pace, I managed something in the car which in the end was okay so I am pretty happy with my stage.
27. 07. 2024 11:31 CET 3 flash info (5 - Armstrong Jon / Treacy Eoin): It's pretty tough to be honest, the conditions are so hard. We lost our brakes on the last bit. We're having to keep a window open because it's so hot. Let's see how the time stacks up.
27. 07. 2024 11:31 CET 3 flash info (5 - Armstrong Jon / Treacy Eoin): It's pretty tough to be honest, the conditions are so hard. We lost our brakes on the last bit. We're having to keep a window open because it's so hot. Let's see how the time stacks up.
27. 07. 2024 11:30 CET 3 flash info (19 - Scattolon Giacomo / Zanni Gabriele): This stage is long but more difficult. The feeling is not 100 percent.
27. 07. 2024 11:30 CET 3 flash info (23 - Vincze Ferenc / Németh Gergely): Not good today. No brake in the middle of the stage, no grip. Too much brake pump. The time is not good.
27. 07. 2024 11:29 CET 3 flash info (18 - Basso Giandomenico / Granai Lorenzo): So-so. I didn't have a good feeling, but the car is okay. I don't know the reason for the time.
27. 07. 2024 11:29 CET 3 flash info (24 - Březík Adam / Krajča Ondřej): It's really crazy because there is a lot of slippery Tarmac and many places where the grip changes. You have to be very careful, we don't have any knowledge of this stage because we are here for the first time so we are just learning.
27. 07. 2024 11:27 CET 3 flash info (4 - Østberg Mads / Barth Patrik): It was tough. A lot of issue with the pop-off valve in there so we lost quite a lot of time to be honest. Every time I go for the power in the second half of the stage, we are losing time. The grip is going up and down, but we learnt it now so we can come back and improve on the second pass.
27. 07. 2024 11:24 CET 3 flash info (22 - Lefebvre Stéphane / Hamard Anthony): Not so comfortable and I have no front, so I can't push in the corners. I can't do anything more for the moment, we need to work and see what we can do.
27. 07. 2024 11:24 CET 3 flash info (6 - Tempestini Simone / Itu Sergiu): This one is a really nice one, we njoyed a lot. I felt in a few places that I wanted to be a bit too fast and I lose a few seconds. With this hot temperature it is not easy to find a good compromise to keep a good rhythm and arrive at the end of the stage with a perfect run. We learnt a lot, let's see for the next one.
27. 07. 2024 11:23 CET 3 flash info (12 - Mareš Filip / Bucha Radovan): Quite good to be honest, I took it quite reasonably because it is a long stage and we need to manage the tyres. We are still learning the tyres. It was a good run, without any crucial mistakes. We are still quite far from the fastest time.
27. 07. 2024 10:27 CET 3 flash info (16 - Campedelli Simone / Canton Tania): My feeling was okay, I tried to keep the tyres on the regular temperature and I believe that we made a good run. Probably on the last downhill we can push a bit more, but generally it is quite fine.
27. 07. 2024 10:23 CET 3 flash info (7 - Marczyk Miko / Gospodarczyk Szymon): Still not bad, but the driving was not good. I struggle with the feeling of the brake on the corner, I have the brakes properly but I need to push a bit more to the end.
27. 07. 2024 10:21 CET 3 flash info (26 - Daprà Roberto / Guglielmetti Luca): You can't compare the Rally2 and Rally4, you can brake later and much faster. The car is amazing, the new RS is better than the Evo. We are trying to compete.
27. 07. 2024 10:17 CET 3 flash info (1 - Paddon Hayden / Kennard John): A new section in the middle which is quite tricky on the pace notes. Conditions are harder this year because within the first 10km the tyres were overheating and it felt like you were on a gravel rally. Good fun though.
27. 07. 2024 10:14 CET 3 flash info (20 - Avbelj Boštjan / Andrejka Damijan): This stage we had some small problems, so we have to adjust the setup I think. Good feeling, good rhythm and all okay for now.
27. 07. 2024 10:14 CET 3 flash info (8 - Mabellini Andrea / Lenzi Virginia): I hit a pole with the rear left in a junction. We didn't expect smooth gravel, when we touched it, it was like driving on ice. I think the car is okay.
27. 07. 2024 10:13 CET 3 flash info (11 - Wagner Simon / Hain Jara): Too much braking, not committed enough. Let's see, the rally is still long.
27. 07. 2024 10:11 CET 3 flash info (2 - Llarena Efrén / Fernandez Sara): Road position was okay, the people on the back have a lot of gravel. I need to go, I have hot brakes!
27. 07. 2024 10:11 CET 3 flash info (9 - Cais Erik / Bacigál Igor): It's just the pilot! Everything is okay. I could push much more in a lot of places but I'm happy with how it was. we didn't have any moments and we need to improve. I didn't know a lot of places on this stage but we'll improve.
27. 07. 2024 10:10 CET 3 flash info (3 - Franceschi Mathieu / Malfoy Andy): Wooh! Long one. At the end it was difficult because the car was moving a lot. It is good for the spectator but not for the time.
27. 07. 2024 13:16 CET 2 retired (97 - Dello Russo Giovanni Battista / Aiezza Venanzio): retired after SS 2
27. 07. 2024 10:09 CET 2 Stage is cancelled.
27. 07. 2024 09:38 CET 2 Stage is stopped.
27. 07. 2024 09:37 CET 2 retired (48 - Aragno Francesco / Guzzi Giancarla): accident in SS 2
27. 07. 2024 09:10 CET 2 retired (29 - Mezzatesta Fabio / Menchini Marco): double puncture after SS 2
27. 07. 2024 09:09 CET 2 flash info (15 - Crugnola Andrea / Ometto Pietro Elia): It was an okay stage for us, we knew that we could have more pollution on the road and at the end we had it. It's fine, the pace is okay. I trust the car and the setup so I'm fine.
27. 07. 2024 08:59 CET 2 flash info (21 - Andreucci Paolo / Briani Rudy): Not bad, better than yesterday. It's okay, a short one. We go to the next stage, very long.
27. 07. 2024 08:59 CET 2 flash info (5 - Armstrong Jon / Treacy Eoin): The road has a couple of areas of pollution. We're quite happy with our run, it's been quite abrasive. We had a small moment where we went wide and clipped a rock, thought we had a puncture, but other than that it is alright.
27. 07. 2024 08:54 CET 2 flash info (23 - Vincze Ferenc / Németh Gergely): Virtual chicane was not good for me, too slow. But the stage was good, perfect.
27. 07. 2024 08:53 CET 2 flash info (18 - Basso Giandomenico / Granai Lorenzo): Okay. We are pushing, it was bumpy but everything is okay.
27. 07. 2024 08:49 CET 2 flash info (24 - Březík Adam / Krajča Ondřej): It's completely different, the grip is different here. Much more slippery so we have to adapt and learn a lot of things.
27. 07. 2024 08:49 CET 2 flash info (4 - Østberg Mads / Barth Patrik): To be honest I felt embarrassed through the stage because it felt really slow, I just struggle to get around the speed you carry on this rally because I'm an old dog. The grip here is unreal, you can forget everything you learned for 100 years and do something else. My pace notes are correct but step by step I need to go up to the limit, in here the limit is not bad but for now I lose time so we need to work on that.
27. 07. 2024 08:49 CET 2 flash info (22 - Lefebvre Stéphane / Hamard Anthony): My car is a bit kangaroo-y, it is jumping a lot. We need to learn this car, I need some kilometres and try to find a way with the setup.
27. 07. 2024 08:48 CET 2 flash info (6 - Tempestini Simone / Itu Sergiu): It felt good, I just missed the first hairpin. I get angry from the third corner but then it was a good feeling. The stage was quite tricky, many bumpy places with rough cuts, but it is okay we are learning the car.
27. 07. 2024 08:48 CET 2 flash info (12 - Mareš Filip / Bucha Radovan): I was quite surprised in some corners it was quite slippery but overall it was okay. For sure, there is space to improve, especially in the braking. I was too cautious in places but it is a good start.
27. 07. 2024 08:48 CET 2 flash info (16 - Campedelli Simone / Canton Tania): I accelerated too much on the virtual chicane, it is better to slow down than get a penalty but it is something I could manage better. It is always a gamble to choose a position to start but it is okay.
27. 07. 2024 08:47 CET 2 flash info (7 - Marczyk Miko / Gospodarczyk Szymon): Not perfect, not best start of the day. We are on average speed and it is good because I still struggle a bit with the feeling on the Tarmac and it is a good start to the race.
27. 07. 2024 08:47 CET 2 flash info (26 - Daprà Roberto / Guglielmetti Luca): Enjoyed it! One of the trickiest stages, narrow, bumpy. We had a bit of understeer but we try to fix and go ahead.
27. 07. 2024 08:47 CET 2 flash info (1 - Paddon Hayden / Kennard John): Not worried about that, tyre wear is not an issue here; it's more about overheating of the tyres. We have a long road section now so the tyres will cool down. Tyre wear is not an issue, you just have to be flat out on this rally from start to finish.
27. 07. 2024 08:46 CET 2 flash info (20 - Avbelj Boštjan / Andrejka Damijan): Everything okay, car works fine. Thanks to our team, I think we found a good setup. Now we keep pushing, onto the long one.
27. 07. 2024 08:46 CET 2 flash info (8 - Mabellini Andrea / Lenzi Virginia): I think it is a great start to the day, but as Franceschi said I love when you say this! It is a great stage, good beginning to the day. Now we go for the long one, this one will be a tough one.
27. 07. 2024 08:46 CET 2 flash info (11 - Wagner Simon / Hain Jara): It was fine, no mistakes but we can push a bit more.
27. 07. 2024 08:45 CET 2 flash info (2 - Llarena Efrén / Fernandez Sara): Very well, quite happy. I need to go.
27. 07. 2024 08:45 CET 2 flash info (9 - Cais Erik / Bacigál Igor): I'm feeling much better, so I probably pushed too much and we had a moment at the beginning. I was too optimistic in one corner but other than that a good stage. We stalled the car a bit so we lost a few seconds. Probably not five but about four.
27. 07. 2024 08:44 CET 2 flash info (3 - Franceschi Mathieu / Malfoy Andy): I am fastest? I love it when you say 'you are fastest through.' It's a short stage, now focus for the long one.
27. 07. 2024 08:43 CET 2 Weather in Fiuggi is sunny, temperature around 30°C.
27. 07. 2024 08:01 CET 2 flash info (19 - Scattolon Giacomo / Zanni Gabriele): The time is not good, but this stage is difficult for me and the first stage of the day.
27. 10. 2024 08:33 CET 1 flash info (9 - Cais Erik / Bacigál Igor): What makes me happy is reaching the finish because you have zero chance to make a mistake. I am happy and the beautiful stages are starting tomorrow. Goodnight.
28. 07. 2024 14:02 CET 1 flash info (16 - Campedelli Simone / Canton Tania): It was okay, now I have to solve something.
27. 07. 2024 08:43 CET 1 flash info (45 - Lupu Ciprian-Daniel / Aitculesei Andrei): I am feeling very fine, it was a little hard to do. On this stage, I have only two hands and it is difficult! I need more than two!
27. 07. 2024 08:42 CET 1 flash info (43 - Stratieva Ekaterina / Avramov Georgi): It is crazy, I hope to enjoy it. First stage was a little bit scary, it was so fast and I didn't expect to finish.
27. 07. 2024 08:42 CET 1 flash info (41 - Rendina Michael / Cipriani Fabiano): It's a very special stage, the colosseum is fantastic and the atmosphere is fantastic. My friends and family are fantastic!
27. 07. 2024 08:42 CET 1 flash info (40 - Cogni Giorgio / Brachi Simone): It's always beautiful racing in Rome. Tonight we didn't push so much, just tried to do a good race. We look forward to competing in the ERC4.
27. 07. 2024 08:41 CET 1 flash info (39 - Pisani Gianandrea / Moriconi Massimo): Very good, very enjoyable. Beautiful stage, the best of the Italian championship and European championship. We hope to do a good race and we'll see what happens tomorrow and after.
27. 07. 2024 08:41 CET 1 flash info (38 - Pesavento Davide / Gonella Nicoló): I thought it would be more difficult with the high temperature. I am happy to be here for my sportsmanship, my federation. I am happy with the result.
27. 07. 2024 08:41 CET 1 flash info (37 - Bertalan Márton / Paizs Róbert): It's very good, but I felt really bad. Really slippery in the first corner. Very good for the spectators and the fans, the rally will start tomorrow. Big adventure for us.
27. 07. 2024 08:40 CET 1 flash info (36 - Tomov Aleksandar / Spasov Dimitar): I like it much more, this car. Back in the day, we drove a Renault Clio 5. There is a lot of power in this car.
27. 07. 2024 08:40 CET 1 flash info (35 - Kowalczyk Hubert / Hryniuk Jarosław): I am into road mode, my stage was broken. I don't know what happened.
27. 07. 2024 08:39 CET 1 flash info (34 - Ravenščak Martin / Ravenščak Dora): I think it is going to be very hard because of the heat, technical and fast long stages. Try to have fun and enjoy and go to the finish line.
27. 07. 2024 08:38 CET 1 flash info (33 - Kohn Filip / Woodburn Tom): Crazy atmosphere, crazy people. I love it here and am enjoying every moment, I am so happy to be here. We need a few more results to win the trophy so we just need to keep it together and get to the end.
27. 07. 2024 08:37 CET 1 flash info (32 - Kazaz Kerem / Silvestre Corentin): Only a little damage? I touched it on the hairpin, I was just going through the stage and didn't push but the hairpin was a little slippery. I was not sure if the handbrake would work or not but it is okay.
27. 07. 2024 08:36 CET 1 flash info (31 - Widłak Igor / Marczewski Michał): I will try to go for the win, but I think I am better on gravel. I expected this stage to go better.
27. 07. 2024 08:36 CET 1 flash info (30 - Kołtun Jarosław / Pleskot Ireneusz): Beautiful stage, I would like to send greetings to the director of this rally. I have known him a long time and this rally is very nice.
27. 07. 2024 08:36 CET 1 flash info (28 - Molle Amaury / Dubois Alex): o be honest I am happy to be back in the ERC and Rome because I love this rally. For my return in the ERC I have a Rally2 car, I have to thank my main sponsor. We are looking at more events this year and a big programme next year, so we will see.
27. 07. 2024 08:35 CET 1 flash info (24 - Březík Adam / Krajča Ondřej): It is gonna be a big challenge but we are here to enjoy it. It's a great start with the spectators and the real rally starts tomorrow.
27. 07. 2024 08:35 CET 1 flash info (27 - Somaschini Rachele / Arena Nicola): It's amazing, in front of the colosseum and it is amazing to be here. I am so happy.
27. 07. 2024 08:35 CET 1 flash info (23 - Vincze Ferenc / Németh Gergely): We are waiting for tomorrow, first race outside home.
27. 07. 2024 08:34 CET 1 flash info (26 - Daprà Roberto / Guglielmetti Luca): Absolutely amazing to be back, a really good opportunity for me in the WRC and then for me on my home rally, thank you to all the people for having me.
27. 07. 2024 08:34 CET 1 flash info (14 - László Martin / Zsiros Gábor): I was very careful because I didn't want to make any mistakes as the race is very long. Let's see what we can do now.
27. 07. 2024 08:34 CET 1 flash info (12 - Mareš Filip / Bucha Radovan): It was quite tricky with the car because it is on the edge right now, in the first corner it was not easy to catch the first corners but there we go.
27. 07. 2024 08:33 CET 1 flash info (11 - Wagner Simon / Hain Jara): Not easy for sure, but a lot of fun. A lot of spectators. Tomorrow, the real rally starts. Not so fun driving on soft tyres.
27. 07. 2024 08:30 CET 1 flash info (22 - Lefebvre Stéphane / Hamard Anthony): It's a brand new rally for me, so it is hard to expect something clear. It is a new car for me too, let's see what we can do.
27. 07. 2024 08:28 CET 1 flash info (8 - Mabellini Andrea / Lenzi Virginia): It was clean, no mistakes. I thought it was a little worse than this. It's incredible to start from here in front of the colosseum, very good for the spectators and thanks to the organisers who made it happen. Tomorrow is the real rally.
27. 07. 2024 08:28 CET 1 flash info (7 - Marczyk Miko / Gospodarczyk Szymon): I was hoping for a better run but it was clear. We felt a big action but we felt the confidence and perception to put on the stage like that.
27. 07. 2024 08:27 CET 1 flash info (20 - Avbelj Boštjan / Andrejka Damijan): This is a Power Stage for us, so it is really important for the championship. Some mistakes but you can push on the concrete. Satisfied.
27. 07. 2024 08:26 CET 1 flash info (6 - Tempestini Simone / Itu Sergiu): I said to Itu that I made a little mistake on the pace notes on the last corner so it is Peter Mackay's fault! It is a really nice stage for the people around, but the real rally starts tomorrow.
27. 07. 2024 08:25 CET 1 flash info (19 - Scattolon Giacomo / Zanni Gabriele): For us, the stage is more important for the Italian championship. It is more difficult, but beautiful.
27. 07. 2024 08:23 CET 1 flash info (5 - Armstrong Jon / Treacy Eoin): The Rally3 is a bit more narrow for sure. It is so easy to make a mistake on these stages, you're not gonna win a rally or a podium here so we just had to get through. But it is good to see so many spectators at an iconic location. The rally starts tomorrow.
27. 07. 2024 08:22 CET 1 flash info (46 - Signor Marco / Michi Daniele): For me it is very difficult to start with cold [tyres], it is a difficult feeling. Tomorrow is the race.
27. 07. 2024 08:22 CET 1 flash info (4 - Østberg Mads / Barth Patrik): I would have said]I wouldn't believe you to drive by the colosseum. It is hard to believe you're doing a rally when you visit these places. It is a nice mix between 2000-year-old history and the modern rally car.
27. 07. 2024 08:22 CET 1 flash info (18 - Basso Giandomenico / Granai Lorenzo): Everything okay, I didn't make a mistake but this is the time.
27. 07. 2024 08:21 CET 1 flash info (3 - Franceschi Mathieu / Malfoy Andy): Too excited! I'm really excited for tomorrow, the stages are looking really interesting. It will be a big challenge for the crew and everything. I'm really looking forward to tomorrow and like I said earlier, I tried to sleep last two weeks and didn't do anything!
27. 07. 2024 08:21 CET 1 flash info (16 - Campedelli Simone / Canton Tania): It's always a good battle, we don't want to make any mistake on these kind of battles but on the other side we need to get points for the championship so that is a compromise.
27. 07. 2024 08:21 CET 1 flash info (2 - Llarena Efrén / Fernandez Sara): Last year it was almost 4sec so today it was a bit better! Tarmac drivers have the stage here in the Italian championship, so let's see. It's okay.
27. 07. 2024 08:20 CET 1 flash info (15 - Crugnola Andrea / Ometto Pietro Elia): It's amazing atmosphere in front of the colosseum, it is like a dream for the Italian guys to compete in front of such a beautiful monument. The stage went quite well, I think it is impossible to be perfect and neat in these stages. We will see what this means for the Italian championship.
27. 07. 2024 08:20 CET 1 flash info (1 - Paddon Hayden / Kennard John): This stage is right up there, it is one of the coolest ones you do. The stage is irrelevant, it is all about the location. I'd like to open up Paddon's tours. Five bucks, pretty building on the right and you're there!
27. 07. 2024 08:20 CET 1 flash info (93 - Andolfi Fabrizio jun. / Iguera Massimo): It's a very fantastic stage, it is short but very difficult and I am very happy to hold this contest in Rome.
27. 07. 2024 08:19 CET 1 flash info (86 - Mazzocchi Alessandro / Gallotti Silvia): A good stage, is very good to be here and I am very happy. We will see tomorrow for the very special stages.
27. 07. 2024 08:19 CET 1 flash info (85 - Vidori Asia / Manfredi Jasmine): I'm so emotional, I am so happy. The stage was amazing, with the colosseum. I am so happy.
27. 07. 2024 08:18 CET 1 Weather in Rome is sunny, temperature around 32°C.
27. 07. 2024 08:18 CET QS flash info (21 - Andreucci Paolo / Briani Rudy): Not good today, this morning we have a little problem with the setup but I think [now to] the service.
27. 07. 2024 08:17 CET QS flash info (20 - Avbelj Boštjan / Andrejka Damijan): Little moment after the compression because we touched the ground so much, but the feeling is good with the car so we will keep going.
27. 07. 2024 08:17 CET QS flash info (19 - Scattolon Giacomo / Zanni Gabriele): This stage is more difficult but the time is not good.
27. 07. 2024 08:17 CET QS flash info (18 - Basso Giandomenico / Granai Lorenzo): I think it went okay, I don't like this stage. Very short! We'll see tomorrow, I like Rally di Roma Capitale, but I like the longer stage.
27. 07. 2024 08:17 CET QS flash info (16 - Campedelli Simone / Canton Tania): Where's my cake? We had a good run, I never liked this stage in my life. In the last two years it is getting better and better! Nice feeling to be back on the ERC, we played a bit with this one, bit of strategy tomorrow. Let's see if we can do something tomorrow if we are cleaning the road. We have a good team, good tyres. I am happy.
27. 07. 2024 08:16 CET QS flash info (15 - Crugnola Andrea / Ometto Pietro Elia): I made some mistakes, so I need to see the service park with the team because the time is not good so we need to investigate. The car is working fine, but it's my confidence.
27. 07. 2024 08:16 CET QS flash info (14 - László Martin / Zsiros Gábor): Much better this year, very great to be back in the FIA ERC. About five months ago I had a very big crash in Croatia, so I try to get back my confidence and I'm very happy to be here.
27. 07. 2024 08:15 CET QS flash info (2 - Llarena Efrén / Fernandez Sara): I am happy, we are enjoying and smiling so that is really important. For sure it is a good time, we are on good speed. This stage is not on the rally but we know the stages from other years.
27. 07. 2024 08:15 CET QS flash info (12 - Mareš Filip / Bucha Radovan): Was quite a good run for us, I did a small mistake which cost me a few seconds. I hit an anticut in the third or fifth corner, but I am happy that the car is working well and I am looking forward to the race.
27. 07. 2024 08:15 CET QS flash info (11 - Wagner Simon / Hain Jara): Not bad, two small mistakes but happy with the setup we found so let's enjoy the next two days.
27. 07. 2024 08:14 CET QS flash info (9 - Cais Erik / Bacigál Igor): It feels amazing to be back in ERC, it could've been some points a bit faster but a clean run. It's my type of bread. The team prepared the car really well, I have to thank them. Hopefully a good start position for the race but let's see.
27. 07. 2024 08:14 CET QS flash info (8 - Mabellini Andrea / Lenzi Virginia): I was not thinking to drive, but I want to say happy birthday to my friend Alberto, I hope he is watching us! It was okay, we had a clean run! I can hear Virgi Lenzi with this new cable!
27. 07. 2024 08:14 CET QS flash info (7 - Marczyk Miko / Gospodarczyk Szymon): I really like Tarmac, but after so much gravel experience where step by step we increased our pace. We are quite similar on gravel and Tarmac. I feel like we did some good testing. We need to work, improve and do the proper Rally Roma di Capitale race.
27. 07. 2024 08:13 CET QS flash info (6 - Tempestini Simone / Itu Sergiu): It was slower than a lot of people's run, it was a strange feeling in the last section. I don't know why we had a little issue with a pop-off [valve]. The Qualifying stage is the first few kilometres with the car and we enjoy it. This rally will be really challenging and the drivers will be really fast, but I am looking forward to the Italian asphalt.
27. 07. 2024 08:13 CET QS flash info (5 - Armstrong Jon / Treacy Eoin): Not too bad, we're not on the pace in Free Practice but we're trying to improve now. I think we have time to get faster and see how close we can get to the front guys.
27. 07. 2024 08:13 CET QS flash info (4 - Østberg Mads / Barth Patrik): I'm not used to discovering rallies anymore, to come to a brand new rally with such special character, I feel really lost a bit! I need to search for my driving style on this kind of rally and get used to the grip. As I go, I feel I move step by step, but I'm not even closer to the limit!
27. 07. 2024 08:12 CET QS flash info (3 - Franceschi Mathieu / Malfoy Andy): Feel really nice, the first section of the stage was like Barum Rally Zlín, very fast. We enjoyed a lot and we are happy to be back on asphalt because we worked a lot between Estonia and now, so we go again.
27. 07. 2024 08:12 CET QS flash info (1 - Paddon Hayden / Kennard John): At time this morning in practice and qualifying we've been identical to tenths of a second to times last year. That shows where we're at with the car, so we'll see what we can do. There's a lot of fast people here.
27. 07. 2024 08:11 CET QS Weather in Fiuggi is sunny, temperature around 38°C.
26. 07. 2024 08:25 CET FP1+FP2 (24 - Březík Adam / Krajča Ondřej): puncture
27. 07. 2024 13:48 CET Stage continues.
