"I got stuck in a ditch. Really simple - caught a patch of ice. I had to wait for spectators and lost a minute - minute and a half. It's a long rally, we'll keep going, but it's not a good start."
SS2 Bayons - Bréziers 1 (25.49 km)	15:21.2	10. 10. class RC1 10. WRC	99.6 km/h 1.10 s/km	40:22.5	9. 9. class RC1 9. WRC
"A stupid mistake in the first one. A stupid spin. I had a choice to handbrake but I chose to stop and reverse and backed into a ditch. Okay, that's behind me now. A long rally to go."
2. leg

"Okay, not bad, but a lot more greasy and damp than I expected. A lot of mud on the road. Whether we got the [4S&2SS] tyre choice right I don't know."

"Really tricky. The car and the tyres are working well but in the position I'm in I didn't want to do anything stupid. I need to wait for somebody else to make a mistake."
SS8 Vaumeilh - Claret 2 (15.18 km)	8:46.8	4. 4. class RC1 4. WRC	103.7 km/h 0.70 s/km	2:10:00.9	6. 6. class RC1 6. WRC

spin
"I have no idea how this time will compare. In these conditions it's the most challenging. I had one spin, which cost about 12sec."
SS10 St-Léger-les-Mélèzes - La Bâtie-Neuve 1 (16.87 km)	12:53.4	9. 9. class RC1 9. WRC	78.5 km/h 2.17 s/km	2:49:51.0	5. 5. class RC1 5. WRC
"Tricky. I tried my best and I'm still trying to be very careful. With big gaps in front and behind I'm just trying to managing it. But even that's not easy."
SS11 Agnières-en-Dévoluy - Corps 2 (29.16 km)	19:30.5	6. 6. class RC1 6. WRC	89.7 km/h 0.83 s/km	3:09:21.5	4. 4. class RC1 4. WRC

"With Esapekka Lappi's puncture we're up to 4th, but he's not far behind. We lost a bit in here."

"I had a good stage but I stalled in a hairpin and lost one or two secs there. There is more and more mud being pulled out. Let's see how the other guys do - Lappi is the important one."
4. leg
SS14 La Bollène-Vésubie - Peïra-Cava 1 (18.41 km)	14:11.2	5. 5. class RC1 5. WRC	77.9 km/h 1.08 s/km	3:49:22.2	5. 5. class RC1 5. WRC
"Very tricky. I think the weather has turned colder since the gravel crews went through - conditions have changed. We'll only know whether the tyres were correct at the end of the rally."
SS15 La Cabanette - Col de Braus 1 (13.58 km)	10:38.8	3. 3. class RC1 3. WRC	76.5 km/h 0.35 s/km	4:00:01.0	5. 5. class RC1 5. WRC
"A hellish stage. This rally never ceases to amaze me. Black ice on loose gravel? Just trying to stay on the road to be honest."
SS16 La Bollène-Vésubie - Peïra-Cava 2 (18.41 km)	13:30.9	5. 5. class RC1 5. WRC	81.7 km/h 1.25 s/km	4:13:31.9	5. 5. class RC1 5. WRC
"Crazy conditions, full black ice. I felt more comfortable on the slicks than on the studs. Okay, I have no idea of my time. We don't know. 'All Live' means nothing for the crews, but the whole world knows!"
SS17 La Cabanette - Col de Braus 2[Power Stage] (13.58 km)	10:06.7	1. 1. class RC1 1. WRC	80.6 km/h	4:23:38.6	4. 4. class RC1 4. WRC
