Info

Rovanperä H.
- Pietiläinen R.

We came carefully because they warned us that it would be slippery and it was slippery at times!

#12

Grönholm Marcus
- Rautiainen T.

It's very very slippery. No problems, the car slides too much but we try to fix that.

Kytölehto Jarmo
- Kapanen Arto

I think the biggest tension went away now. It's very slippery, clay slur, it takes the car too much sideways. We went wide in one left hander but no other problems.

Kankkunen Juha
- Repo Juha

It was pretty good. Not even the tiniest [problem with spectators]. [The tyre] bit quite well, it wasn't so bad, but a few corners were really slippery.

Mäkinen Tommi
- Mannisenmäki R.

OK except that I dropped a wheel into the ditch in the junction and lost a bit of time. [The spectators] tried to take pictures and stand on the road.

Sainz Carlos
- Moya Luis

Close to an accident with the people in the middle of the road. Please, tell the people to move away! They could not hear the car and they were in the middle. Very dangerous.

McRae Colin
- Grist Nicky

[We went off] in the last junction. No [problems with the spectators]. [The tyre choice] was Good/OK.

McRae Colin
- Grist Nicky

Went into a ditch

Mäkinen Tommi
- Mannisenmäki R.

Briefly into a ditch
