Not bad, I was quite cautious first time here. I wanted to finish the first stage without problem which I didn't manage in previous ERC in Rzeszow. | ||||||

It was OK, quite difficult stage because in fast sections there is hard surface and good grip nad then you come to forest with soft road. | ||||||

We made two mistakes, the car was too low on some bumps, it was difficult on braking. I'm not really confident with my driving, but the pace was right. | ||||||

It's incredibly slippery, we were very cautious. Really no grip. I think I have to get used to these conditions. | ||||||

We hit a bank inside a corner and had a spin. There was a lot of dust, we didn't see anything. We lost quite a lot of time there. | ||||||

It was OK, as long as you keep the line the grip is OK, but when you go only few centimeters from the line, thy tyres don't work. I'm learning, but I enjoy the drive. | ||||||
