INFORMATION ABOUT SS 17
flash info (33 - Evans Elfyn / Martin Scott): Not sure there will be a big Power Stage push today, but let's see what happens. There's still a long way to go today and we're just trying to keep it clean. The next one looks difficult, that's all we know.
flash info (17 - Ogier Sébastien / Landais Vincent): It's more slippery than I thought, to be honest. We heard from the team that we need to be careful on Tänak's junction.
flash info (69 - Rovanperä Kalle / Halttunen Jonne): It's the same plan still. The conditions look really difficult on the next two. This one was okay but the next ones will be tricky.
flash info (4 - Lappi Esapekka / Ferm Janne): The feeling is okay but for sure there are some slippy places and drier places as well. Changeable conditions with some dirt on the road in places. It's not so straightforward.
flash info (8 - Tänak Ott / Järveoja Martin): Bin it or win it - we tried to bin it but not yet. I understeered into an escape road.
(8 - Tänak Ott / Järveoja Martin): was out of road
flash info (11 - Neuville Thierry / Wydaeghe Martijn): This was probably the easiest stage of the day. I don't really have a plan, I will follow my feeling and if that feeling is good then I will try to drive a bit.
Stage is dry.
