INFORMATION ABOUT SS 8
retired (60 - Ruiloba Diego / Vela Ángel): technical problem - engine after SS 8
retired (99 - Triviño Ricardo / Velasco Enrique): retired after SS 8
retired (38 - Mauro Alejandro / Pérez Adrián): retired in SS 8
flash info (2 - Salvi Diogo / Coronado Axel): It's already difficult with four wheels, but with three. I don't know. Try to make it a little bit more complicated. I am starting to enjoy the car more, maybe that's why I got the flat tyre. But you know what the good thing is? I have a guy to change it, I have to save myself so I just supervise.
flash info (55 - McErlean Joshua / Treacy Eoin): I just didn't find the rhythm, especially towards the end. Let's keep on learning, still a long day ahead.
(2 - Salvi Diogo / Coronado Axel): puncture
(2 - Salvi Diogo / Coronado Axel): spun
flash info (22 - Sesks Mārtiņš / Francis Renārs): You have a lot of bedrock and you are driving on rocks and stones. It's challenging to be honest. It's really hot, like a normal sauna in here.
flash info (13 - Munster Grégoire / Louka Louis): It was tricky with Adrien, they said we should go outside, but I saw a gap on the inside.
flash info (5 - Pajari Sami / Salminen Marko): Much better conditions, could have been pushing even more, not too bad feeling. Obviously we can see how quick it can change, so maybe it's not too bad of a plan to keep the steady pace.
(13 - Munster Grégoire / Louka Louis): stalled engine
flash info (18 - Katsuta Takamoto / Johnston Aaron): Had to slow down a bit for Adrien. Feels quite good with the car in here. Still we have two new stages today. Crazy long day, feels like an entire weekend already.
flash info (8 - Tänak Ott / Järveoja Martin): Not good for the team, but yeah. I tried to have a good stage. Some surprises and some big impacts that broke the windscreen.
flash info (17 - Ogier Sébastien / Landais Vincent): It's been a good loop, a few things here and there, but not too bad. I think the last loop will be more difficult in terms of cleaning.
retired (16 - Fourmaux Adrien / Coria Alexandre): damaged suspension in SS 8
flash info (1 - Neuville Thierry / Wydaeghe Martijn): Not enough. At least I get the feeling back a bit. I tried this morning, but we had a bit of a balance issue. I feel much more comfortable now with the car and the conditions in the second pass.
flash info (69 - Rovanperä Kalle / Halttunen Jonne): We try to do everything we can to have a good position for tomorrow. This one was pretty nice, felt like first normal condition Rally Portugal stage of the weekend.
flash info (33 - Evans Elfyn / Martin Scott): It was alright, a lot better grip than this morning, but very dry now.
