| There were a lot of loose gravel on SS1 and SS2. In addition, SS2 was narrow and difficult stage, so I tried to go faster than the others. | ||||||

| Cars with Dunlop tyres were faster on SS4. SS5 was not bad, but once again they were faster on SS6. I would like to keep up with the leader on Section 3. | ||||||

| I had to sweep the loose gravel on the Section 1 and ended up in losing time. I am only 2 seconds behind the leader, and have only 6 seconds' gap to the next, so I will have to fully push from the first stage tomorrow. | ||||||

| (1 second behind the class leader, Hiroki Arai - his son) He does not give up easily, but same as I. So I will keep pushing hard till the end. I will do maximum attack again in the afternoon. | ||||||
