"It's a different story but the time difference will be the same. I did what I could but it was quite difficult. We'll see what we can do tomororw, but it looks like we will be quite far away already." | ||||||

"I tried to drive as fast as I can. I'm not sure, it was not so easy, but let's see how the times are developing. I can not say - for sure, it's very slippery out there." | ||||||

"I tried, but I'm afraid the times will improve because it's pretty loose on the second loop. My tyres were really destroyed at the end, so I think it will be a difficult loop for tyres." | ||||||

"The last section was too much cleaning still, so it won't be enough to make a good time. I couldn't do more than that - that's the way it is, until the next one. It's a beautiful place to rally here. Of course when you're first on the road it's not the same story, but that's the WRC game." |
