"Everyone in the team is pushing to give me the best chance here, and of course I will try my best, but the truth is we'll probably lose some time on the first day with our road position. We'll see what we can do."
SS2 Viana do Castelo 1 (26.70 km)	15:49.9	7. 7. class RC1 7. WRC	101.2 km/h 0.21 s/km	18:27.2	6. 6. class RC1 6. WRC
"I'm happy with my stage. Whatever the time I know I cannot go faster than that."
SS3 Caminha 1 (18.10 km)	10:29.5	6. 6. class RC1 6. WRC	103.5 km/h 0.24 s/km	28:56.7	8. 8. class RC1 8. WRC

"We pushed as much as we can but it's difficult. Not so easy. The tyre choice was okay, but being first on the road is maybe worse than this morning."
SS7 Ponte de Lima 2 (27.46 km)	19:22.8	2. 2. class RC1 2. WRC	85.0 km/h 0.09 s/km	1:33:47.6	3. 3. class RC1 3. WRC

"It's always good to start a day like this. A clean drive, I'm happy with the car, let's hope we can continue like this. Compared to yesterday, it's a different world in this road position."
SS11 Cabeceiras de Basto 1 (22.30 km)	13:37.8	2. 2. class RC1 2. WRC	98.2 km/h 0.23 s/km	2:01:47.7	2. 2. class RC1 2. WRC

SS14 Cabeceiras de Basto 2 (22.30 km)	13:31.0	1. 1. class RC1 1. WRC	99.0 km/h	2:50:44.6	1. 1. class RC1 1. WRC
"It's a good time. I pushed more here. Now it's all about the long stage. If the gap stays like this, or even if I lose some on the long stage, it's perfect. For now we keep going with the same job."
SS15 Amarante 2 (37.55 km)	24:40.0	2. 2. class RC1 2. WRC	91.3 km/h 0.17 s/km	3:15:24.6	1. 1. class RC1 1. WRC
"Not bad, I am happy with that on this one. I didn't push hard because it was a bit rough at the end. Thierry has a good run. I managed my tyres a bit too much - too cautious maybe. Now we have to finish the job tomorrow."
