"The shakedown stage from yesterday is like ice, this last part. The first part isn't too bad, but you just need to watch out for those corners that can catch people out." | ||||||

"Just can't get a feeling. Probably not so happy with these tyres, there a bit too soft. Went off a bit at a junction and lost a bit of time." | ||||||

"A lot muddier this stage, really hard to read the grip, sometimes it is good and then other times it just goes away from you. A bit of fog for the last 3kms and I don't know what goes wrong with me - I end up going faster through the fog!" | ||||||

"Really surprised by the time actually, it felt quite good. Looking at those times maybe the road is deteriorating?" | ||||||

"A lot of wheelspin at points, when the road is a little more hard packed it is better. It's not what I expected. Probably should have been on the full soft, we're all fighting for a few seconds over 20km." | ||||||

"You can't read the grip at all, it is very slippery and you just can't see the grip on the road at all. I've got the right tyres for the forest but maybe not for the asphalt around the Great Orme." | ||||||

"It is so slippy, unbelieavable how slippery it was - even more than Monte Carlo. The pace notes weren't right, we were just following Neuville's lines." | ||||||
