Info
"Yesterday was a big disappointment for us. This morning was difficult too - we had no engine power on the road section. We repaired it, but we had no time to warm the tyres before the stage."
"The rally starts again now. Now I will try but I know Pontus is quick on Tarmac. He will not give up."
"The car feels quite good but I need to find the rhythm. Jan [Kopecky] is really quick on the Tarmac. Let's see what the team want. For sure they want us to finish first and second. Maybe they will want to change us around, I don't know."
"The car is fantastic. I have a very good feeling to drive it. I was very disappointed yesterday - I turned too early in a corner and hit the armco. I can be angry but that doesn't help. What can I do today? Some good times."
"It's nice to drive on tarmac with a #WRC car. It's a bit difficult to go from gravel to tarmac but it's OK."
"Difficult, because I haven't driven the Tarmac spec car since this time last year. Generally a good feeling, but it's difficult to see with the sun so low in the sky."
"My pace notes are not so fast. I have to manage it. I did not take risks. I continue."
"A broken driveshaft. Exactly the same thing as last year. I had a huge spin half way round a four-gear corner. I have only rear-wheel drive now."
"Good. Not as tricky as I thought it would be - the dampness wasn't a problem. Okay, a short test to start the morning. I'm hoping to get some more time back later."
"It felt not so bad. Quite a big step from yesterday. Just trying to get used to it."
"A little bit of understeer. Not perfect, but it's like this. I try to do my best. We need to adjust it a bit now."
"It's strange, in the first braking section we locked up the wheels and there was a strong smell of burning plastic. Maybe it's just new parts bedding in. We'll have to check."
"Not good, I have a lot of wheelspin on the diff and understeer under throttle. It's undriveable. It's terrible."
"A little cautious but a good rhythm, a good start to the day and something to build on."
"No cuts in here, it's like a race circuit. A bit damp and humid in places. Not so easy to get a feeling. The next one should be better."
