| "I don't know. It always seems the same in here - the last part seems to be soft and it doesn't affect the cleaning quite in the same way." | ||||||

| "Not perfect to be honest. It's one of them. The grip is not so high and I'm not so happy with that one. Let's see - it's early days yet." | ||||||

| "I tried to be as clean as possible but it was so, so rough. Very difficult to know what to do for most of it to be honest - it was bad in there." | ||||||

| "Pretty happy to be here - there were some extreme conditions and everybody was trying to pick their way through. It was a lottery at times. You can always say you could have gone faster, but would you still be here? I don't know. It's always difficult to say." | ||||||

| "It was pretty okay. It's slippery out there and there's a fine balance between pushing too much and not enough. With the surface being so slippery it's hard to find the balance." | ||||||

| "It was not easy. The sand was really thick in places and it was difficult to get traction. It's so difficult to know if you're doing well or not - you just have to trust your rhythm and go from there." | ||||||

| "For sure, Kalle has been strong. I think we had the worst of it in here and it was raining very heavily for us. I had a very close moment with a tree near the start which wasn't nice, so that didn't help." | ||||||

| "We could have done a bit more in places, but that's how it is. The rain didn't help us in the long one and Kalle has driven really well. That's how it is - we have to keep the pressure on and see what's possible." | ||||||

| "I'm just trying to focus on doing the best we can. We're still not so far away, but realistically [Kalle] needs to do something a bit wrong now. We'll keep the pressure on." | ||||||

| "We definitely needed a result, that's for sure. Of course, we're disappointed with the outcome of today, but I take my hat off to Kalle. From my side, it's nice to be back on the podium and we should be able to build from here." | ||||||
