Info

#25

Munster Charles
- Dumont Loïc

"One of the most amazing stages i've done in my life. We were very lucky, we hit a big rock with the front and then the left side. But we are here, that's the main point. The name is good for it!"

#21

Ciamin Nicolas
- Roche Yannick

"I had to do the second part [recce] of the stage fully at night and the organizers didn't let us go in the morning."

#27

Chwist Daniel
- Heller Kamil

#21

Ciamin Nicolas
- Roche Yannick

Driving slow

#20

Solberg Oliver
- Edmondson E.

"For sure. In one way, you push a little bit because you never know what happens in the front, but then I have a second place that I have to take care of for the championship."

#23

Kajetanowicz K.
- Szczepaniak M.

"Perfect! No puncture, so perfect! Just to survive and keep our position. This is my first rally this season so it's important to have a good entry."

#26

Domínguez Diego Jr.
- Peñate R.

Stopped at 8km, continued moving

#22

Greensmith Gus
- Andersson Jonas

"Not great. What made it worse was the roughness and the windscreen washers pointing in the wrong direction."

#69

Rovanperä Kalle
- Halttunen J.

"It's situations like that where you can do time by just driving clean. Incredibly tricky stage. I felt I took care of the tyres and not pushing hard when I could."

Neuville Thierry
- Wydaeghe M.

Lost hybrid at the start

#11

Neuville Thierry
- Wydaeghe M.

"That's a hell of a stage. I had a clean run through, but the muddy places at the beginning were really crazy. Just before the finish line we drove over a stone and we bent something."

#16

Fourmaux Adrien
- Coria Alexandre

"I was slow in that stage, I have no confidence. Rocks everywhere, grip very changeable.. just wanted to get through, which we did."

#19

Serderidis Jourdan
- Miclotte F.

"Most difficult stage of my life. We had a lot of moments - we stalled, we had a stone in the middle.. maximum adrenaline!"

"Very very tough, very demanding and lots of surprises with the mud. Got a puncture in the end, but we drove to the finish."

"Puncture, puncture.. I think generally it was fairly fine, just some sections were with big puddles and mud. Generally the grip is quite high."
