INFORMATION ABOUT SS 18
(25 - Chwist Daniel / Heller Kamil): spun
flash info (22 - Kajetanowicz Kajetan / Szczepaniak Maciej): My driving is really slow, but I want to have a nice evening.
flash info (24 - Munster Grégoire / Louka Louis): I dont know why it happened, maybe change of surface. We have made spun in high speed, I think we made two rotations. We needed to restart the car and has to reverse back to correct direction.
flash info (20 - Mikkelsen Andreas / Eriksen Torstein): As expected, it was difficult stage. We had some issues with wipers, it always stopped in the middle so I needed to restart them, so I was loosing concentration.
(24 - Munster Grégoire / Louka Louis): was out of road
flash info (33 - Evans Elfyn / Martin Scott): You just don't know if somebody wants to go on a big push, you can make a really big dent in a minute in these conditions. We're just trying to cover that at the moment.
flash info (17 - Ogier Sébastien / Landais Vincent): I think we said this almost every stage, but it never gets easier this weekend. This one was one of the lowest in terms of grip so far.
flash info (69 - Rovanperä Kalle / Halttunen Jonne): Some sections are definitely cleaning a bit and you get some lines, but then all the cuts are getting more dirty. The last downhill was really difficult - we had no front grip at all.
flash info (4 - Lappi Esapekka / Ferm Janne): Very bad. I have no grip, it's the same as on Friday. I cannot make it work with the wet tyres.
flash info (8 - Tänak Ott / Järveoja Martin): Like I said, we have nothing to fight against Katsuta so there is nothing we can do there. It's tricky and the balance is so bad, it's like driving with a puncture at the front. It's nothing new this year, the feeling is just not there and nothing is working.
flash info (18 - Katsuta Takamoto / Johnston Aaron): It's good, but to be honest I felt so slow. The gravel crew did a good job and I had no moments but in some places I could go much, much quicker. It's impossible to judge how much you can carry the speed.
flash info (11 - Neuville Thierry / Wydaeghe Martijn): Horrible! I am making the line everywhere. The general speed is very slow but still the risk of going off the road is very high. For the last day of rallying, you couldn't imagine anything more difficult than this.
