"The grip deteriorated and got more loose towards the end. You feel like in some places you can go faster, but in other places it's naturally more on the limit. It's difficult to find the balance in these conditions."

"Not easy, especially towards the end with a lot of loose snow. It was often quite difficult to get the car turned in, but we tried."

"It's a fast stage, for sure some places could have been better still, but when it's so fast you have to make sure your notes are right first. All okay."

"It was very fast and it's difficult when it's like that - sometimes I felt I was too slow and other times quite a bit too fast. In some places I thought I was too sideways, but at least I was able to carry the speed."

"Who knows - we'll find out in the next one. For sure, there was some movement near the end but it wasn't quite as hard on the tyres as the previous one."

"The grip was very low towards the end and I was too careful, I didn't take enough chances. That's how it is but we're still here."

"It's a fast stage, that's for sure. For me, the grip at the start was really surprising and much higher. I was probably a bit too careful at the start, but we adapted and were able to find some good pace."

"It seemed quite slippery towards the end. I felt like I had a good clean run - that's a good time from Seb! It's not been the weekend we wanted. Okay, good speed at times but not what we wanted for sure."
