INFORMATION ABOUT SS 1
retired (36 - Shinkai Tomoyuki / Ando Yuichi): accident in SS 1
flash info (11 - Neuville Thierry / Wydaeghe Martijn): There are no questions from our side, just enjoyment and try to go for another victory. That's what we want to do this weekend but it won't be easy at all, and it might be even more difficult than two weeks ago in Germany after the road conditions we have seen during recce. It's going to be really challenging but I'm looking forward to it.
flash info (69 - Rovanperä Kalle / Halttunen Jonne): It's always nice to come here, especially as a Toyota driver. It looks like we were quite bad on this stage, like many of our cars. Unfortunately we have to come here two more times so we need to find something because the car was quite tricky to drive.
flash info (8 - Tänak Ott / Järveoja Martin): Big pressure with Taka, and I knew Taka was going to push! It was still fun and it's a great atmosphere here, very different to what we usually do and we could enjoy a bit. Obviously in the morning it gets more serious.
flash info (18 - Katsuta Takamoto / Johnston Aaron): I was not good enough on the second lap, maybe pushing too much and making too many mistakes. Tomorrow, let's see - I will try to manage the day.
flash info (17 - Ogier Sébastien / Landais Vincent): It's not really nice to lose four seconds straight away, but that's how it is. We need to check why. Of course, I was not taking so many risks but still it's a lot to lose.
flash info (4 - Lappi Esapekka / Ferm Janne): It must be okay when you beat Seb! It should be okay.
flash info (33 - Evans Elfyn / Martin Scott): I didn't have a good run, that goes without saying really for these super specials. It's obviously a big day tomorrow.
flash info (6 - Sordo Dani / Carrera Cándido): I was feeling good. The jump is a little bit tricky because it's difficult to calculate the speed, but I didn't take any risks and just drove. It was fun.
flash info (20 - Mikkelsen Andreas / Eriksen Torstein): All calm. I took it very carefully over this jump - I was having flashbacks of Greece in 2022! An easy calm start, we have a long day tomorrow.
flash info (16 - Fourmaux Adrien / Coria Alexandre): It's really nice to do some stages with all the spectators. For sure, completely different to what we will see tomorrow, but at least it's a good practice.
