"I did a mistake at the beginning. I missed a hairpin and had to go back. It cost me time but it's okay. For sure not a good stage." | ||||||

"Not such a bad stage for me - Mikkelsen must have driven quite well. The car is okay but I must be missing some speed. We have to find it." | ||||||

"Not much drier here [than the previous stage] but we did a good job in tricky conditions. If Mikkelsen is slower then that's good news for me because he has the better tyres here." | ||||||

"We had a different tyre choice to Andreas and I think we managed the softs pretty well. A clean stage. I hope this puts us in a comfortable position tomorrow but there are still 60km to go - and another tricky vineyard stage." | ||||||

"It feels great, I was missing it [winning] a lot - it's been such a long time. I took the chance here, it's a really good result for the championship. A very exciting battle with Andreas, Thierry and Dani - we had to push to beat them. This win is for [departing team boss] Jost - I told him I'd do this for him!" |
