INFORMATION ABOUT SS 3
retired (49 - Ragues Pierre / Pesenti Julien): accident in SS 3
flash info (25 - McErlean Joshua / Fulton James): Everything is going good, Oliver is on a different level at the moment. Struggled with the exits, trying to use the whole road and need to work on the speed at the long straights. No one can complain being on the road in these rally cars, it's a great feeling.
flash info (24 - Greensmith Gus / Andersson Jonas): The car feels absolutely terrible, it is impossible to keep the rear in the line, every entry it snaps. We'll see if we can work on it. I've always done pretty well in Finland so we're using this as a warm up, but it is tricky.
flash info (23 - Gryazin Nikolay / Mālnieks Andris): Dusty but it is okay. It's like we have dust inside, dust outside. We see everything! Just trying to work on our race, on the pace notes, the driving style. It's not easy but the stage is nice!
flash info (20 - Solberg Oliver / Edmondson Elliott): The feeling is absolutely awful! Sliding everywhere, just trying to stay in the line. Maybe some of the guys behind can be quicker because it is so slippery, there is just no line to follow. Had some massive slides, three or four times. Very slippery, no grip whatsoever. Unbelievable.
flash info (21 - Pajari Sami / Mälkönen Enni): Honestly, I have no idea why we struggle. I am pushing as hard as I ever can, maybe we are losing some because of that but I don't know. Almost overshot on a junction, so maybe lost 2sec there but I am trying to push and that's it.
flash info (22 - Sesks Mārtiņš / Francis Renārs): This stage, Tukums stage! Last year we won it by 16sec, now we have our first stage win. It's amazing. I lost a bit on the exit of the Tarmac. We just have to really focus now.
flash info (13 - Munster Grégoire / Louka Louis): I don't know, I think the back door wasn't closed properly so there was a lot of dust coming inside which is not ideal mid-way through the stage. I struggled a bit with the confidence of the car, you really need to be on the limit.
flash info (4 - Lappi Esapekka / Ferm Janne): Feels horrible all the time, I don't know why. It's our confidence, I cannot trust the grip and it makes things very difficult. I cannot trust the grip level, if I put it sideways I cannot trust which way it will go. It is difficult.
flash info (18 - Katsuta Takamoto / Johnston Aaron): Not great, I am focussed on road section. I changed a few things on the car.
flash info (69 - Rovanperä Kalle / Halttunen Jonne): Really nice stage, the driving and the feeling of the car wasn't so good, I was struggling with the balance of the car and the push. Quite a lot of understeer. I couldn't really push for a competitive time.
flash info (16 - Fourmaux Adrien / Coria Alexandre): I didn't get any feeling in that stage. I was struggling with the lines, we were just lacking confidence and there was a lot of dips and some slides. I was not struggling at all with the tyres, I was struggling with the lines, the push and the commitment was not enough. The tyres were okay.
flash info (17 - Ogier Sébastien / Landais Vincent): I think probably the most difficult stage of the rally, it was nice. A small mistake on the chicane. It's not too bad, I'm happy with my pace notes.
flash info (8 - Tänak Ott / Järveoja Martin): For sure we are benefitting from the others lines. I am not in a good rhythm on the previous one, the confidence is not really high and the car is a bit unpredictable.
flash info (33 - Evans Elfyn / Martin Scott): It's very difficult to get the car turned and it's low grip, so time is to be expected. Every car the road surface gets better and better.
flash info (11 - Neuville Thierry / Wydaeghe Martijn): You'll see how bad it is with cleaning on the times, definitely.
