| "I had a good stage. It was very tricky and there were some surprises. The softer tyres would have worked better before but we had to have a compromise. It's a very nice place and there are lots of spectators so it was a good reason to come here! We can only try: we have a good feeling with the car and we are going to try to improve the rhythm and setup tomorrow to be on the pace." | ||||||

| "The car felt okay in the stage. The speed is higher so we have more energy to put the car sideways but it was a tricky stage. There were some really really slippery places towards the end and it was very easy to go off." | ||||||

| "I can't really attack. I have to be very clean to go fast and in these conditions you have to push very hard. We are trying to find grip that we are missing, but on the other hand I need some protection." | ||||||

| "It's a tricky stage and it is getting quite dark. Ott is six-minutes in front on the road and I guess the visibility for him was much better. It is difficult to judge how much to push in there, I was also on three soft tyres and it may have been a bit rough for them." | ||||||
