Info
All right, this one was much better than the others. Unfortunately, due to Joci's accident in front of us, we had to slow down there.
I like the car more and more.
We feel around: I really enjoy the wide ones, but for the narrow parts I still need to grow up.
Everything is fine, we enjoyed it.
Unfortunately, the engine stopped at the start, we lost some time - it turned out like this now, we will continue.
The previous two were good, but this one is pretty weak.
We already felt this was better.
We hit a rock that stopped us a bit, so it's not so good right now.
Everything is fine, we probably solved our problems.
There are some place where the brakes are working, some where not, but we didn't throw them away here, and that's the most important thing.
Thank you, we are fine, everything is fine with us.
We're fine, everything's fine.
Everything is great, although we stalled the engine at the start. And on the stage, there was wear in the most surprising places.
This stage wasn't bad, although we really "honored" the beginning.
This won't be our favorite, we slipped a lot, but it wasn't that bad.
We've had all the problems we could, but we try to smile.
Everything was fine, I thought the tires cooled down more at the beginning, but luckily it wasn't that bad.
Everything is fine, we are having a great time.
Everything is fine, we are not cold, the arrangement is very good, we feel good.
This is a very bumpy stage, the grip was good, but this one wasn't my heart's desire.
Slow puncture
We came as hard as we could, but because of the puncture we couldn't push hard, because our chassis is a bit apart, but it wasn't that bad.
We came, but I didn't really feel the grip on this stage.
I felt it like a disaster: we had no grip, it was all pure improvisation.
I felt good, I tried to push it a bit.
I'm sick of these stages, no sense for them, but we'll go through it anyway!
The car is very good! This fast stage with high top speed does not really suit the car in this heat.
We tried to push through, although I think our tires are very hard here, we don't have much grip, we have to change them.
We had very little grip, I don't know why, but I think we'll change the rubber compound for the next one.
