"It was very difficult at the start with a lot of icy sections. We were stopped before the stage for so long that we started with zero grip and it took quite a long time for us to get some heat in during the stage to get any feeling." | ||||||

"It's very changeable. The gravel crew did a pretty good job - I felt I was going too slowly in some places but then too quick in others . A difficult one." | ||||||

"I think it's a probably a stage that Seb knows well in this direction. We were basically a bit too careful on the shiny tar, so not great." | ||||||

"It's very tricky. I was too careful in some places, but the car has a mind of its own sometimes. Not specifically the car, but the conditions are just so tricky." | ||||||

"I needed that really! It's been a frustrating day, just not really being on the money. I tried to stay in the ruts and out of trouble. We'll try and keep the pressure on [Seb]." | ||||||

"I was careful - but what do you do in these conditions? We're trying to strike the balance between being tidy and not too slow, it's difficult." | ||||||
