INFORMATION ABOUT SS 21
flash info (33 - Evans Elfyn / Martin Scott): A bit happier than I was first thing this morning, but of course we know it's not over until it's over. We have to keep concentrating now for the last one.
flash info (17 - Ogier Sébastien / Landais Vincent): We still have 7.5km to go, so we need to finish the job. For sure, so far it's looking good for the team.
flash info (69 - Rovanperä Kalle / Halttunen Jonne): It's hopefully going to be a good Power Stage for us. It would be an amazing result for the whole team so let's hope everything goes well.
flash info (4 - Lappi Esapekka / Ferm Janne): All is now under control. It hasn't been during the weekend, but now I feel pretty okay. All good.
flash info (18 - Katsuta Takamoto / Johnston Aaron): It's drying up and there is a lot less damp sections, but still I have less grip than the morning and I have no idea why. It's a shame.
flash info (11 - Neuville Thierry / Wydaeghe Martijn): I am still looking for the grip, all weekend long. I couldn't find any grip to be honest but it's the same for everybody. These have been two very tough last events to round out the season - in terms of conditions, it has been really challenging. I enjoy these conditions but it would have been nicer to still be within the fight.
