Info
The rally didn't end too soon, we have driven for some days and if you haven't been able to close the gap the journey can't continue. Next year's car is on a completely different level. Next year we should have enough pace.
This win was more than needed. A win is always a win, no matter where it comes from. A win on home soil is always a win on home soil. More than important for the title race.
I was able to drive with easy mind because over half a minute on 100 km in this rally is a lot
Our target was to be in top ten and we got that. With this machinery we can't match the top drivers but we were focusing on reliability. There was a lot of WRC cars but not all of them lasted until the finish.
We did some testing on the final day. It was valuable information about how the car is developed in the future
If and if! Now we see at least that the pace is enough
Puncture
We changed the pace notes and slowed them down especially in corners where we were about to go off on the first pass
During today we made a lot changes into the pace notes for next year
I'm quite happy, because second place in Finland is a good achievement
