| "The conditions are really, really tricky. The visibility's bad and we lost the car a little bit in the fast section. I can tell you at that speed with all the surprises, it's really dangerous." | ||||||

| "The tyre is moving a bit, but generally I have no grip. I am really fighting to keep the car on the road, but it is what it is. It was drying a bit in sections but as soon as you want to go faster you go in the dirt. Not an easy stage but definetely better conditions than this morning" | ||||||

| "It's very hard to say which rhythm to go. I had a clean stage. Obviously the rain tire on the rear is still moving a bit, and on the next one if the rain comes we are on the safe side with three wets." | ||||||

| "I think the target is still to bring home first the result. Of course we are fighting P2 for the championship but it won't change our lives, we have been many times P2. It's been a while since we have been on the top step, we deserve it so we want to bring it home." | ||||||
