Information
Date and time SS Information
17.11.2023 12:11 8 flash info (18 - Katsuta Takamoto / Johnston Aaron): The afternoon loop was quite good, but obviously this morning we made a mistake. There's still a long way to go so I will just keep pushing. Tomorrow is still tricky stages and anything can still happen.
17.11.2023 12:11 7 flash info (18 - Katsuta Takamoto / Johnston Aaron): That's good. That's all I can do now, keep pushing and taking the fastest times as much as I can to try and catch in front. It will be difficult to catch the podium places but you never know - anything can happen in this rally.
17.11.2023 12:11 6 flash info (18 - Katsuta Takamoto / Johnston Aaron): For sure, we knew that we had the pace this morning and it's very unfortunate happened. It's done, so now we just have to move forward and do what we can. This one didn't feel so good but the stage time is good.
17.11.2023 12:11 5 flash info (18 - Katsuta Takamoto / Johnston Aaron): We could have done it this morning as well! It's a shame, we have the pace. I didn't push too much and just managed the pace, and still we have this time.
17.11.2023 00:11 3 flash info (18 - Katsuta Takamoto / Johnston Aaron): We tried to repair the car, but it's quite impossible to fix it. At least we are still driving and we will try to get to service. The rally is not over yet.
16.11.2023 23:11 2 flash info (18 - Katsuta Takamoto / Johnston Aaron): We had no info on that corner! We had no chance, no chance!
16.11.2023 23:11 2 (18 - Katsuta Takamoto / Johnston Aaron): was out of road
16.11.2023 21:11 1 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.
