"That was tricky - really tricky! In these conditions on a race circuit, it was like ice. There's no points for today, so let's try and have a good weekend."
SS2 Elsi 1 (11.65 km)	8:37.4	2. 2. class RC1 2. WRC	81.1 km/h 0.04 s/km	11:24.8	1. 1. class RC1 1. WRC

"I had a spin at a hairpin and lost around 3-seconds. A tricky stage - I don't know whether my soft tyres were the best choice for that."

"There are six of us with ten seconds so for sure, everybody will be in the same mode this afternoon. It was a more consistent second pass so let's see how the rest of the roads develop - every stage is different."
SS7 Penmachno 2 (16.19 km)	9:48.4	4. 4. class RC1 4. WRC	99.1 km/h 0.25 s/km	56:26.1	1. 1. class RC1 1. WRC

"Let's see. That was quite good and there is a lot more consistent grip this evening. The roads seem to be a bit better on the second pass but we still have to keep our guard."
SS10 Aberhirnant 2 (10.26 km)	5:44.0	5. 5. class RC1 5. WRC	107.4 km/h 0.41 s/km	1:14:34.4	3. 3. class RC1 3. WRC

SS21 Alwen 2 (10.41 km)	5:32.3	6. 6. class RC1 6. WRC	112.8 km/h 0.29 s/km	2:57:32.1	4. 4. class RC1 4. WRC
"Very polished - especially under braking. Sometimes it's just so narrow that there is no room!"
