SS1 Lucéram / Lantosque (15.20 km)	10:39.4	2. 2. class RC1 2. WRC	85.6 km/h 0.36 s/km	10:39.4	2. 2. class RC1 2. WRC
"We had a good start, but it was really tricky on the top with some wet and icy parts. I didn't want to make a mistake on the ice, so I was a bit too careful there. It feels really good - a lot of power and the feeling with this car is great."
SS2 La Bollène-Vésubie / Moulinet (23.25 km)	15:15.7	2. 2. class RC1 2. WRC	91.4 km/h 0.06 s/km	25:55.1	2. 2. class RC1 2. WRC
"We enjoyed it. It was very hard for the tyres, so I overheated my tyres before the middle of the stage and then I struggled to keep the car in position. We did a good stage."
2. leg
SS3 Roure / Beuil 1 (18.33 km)	10:08.9	1. 1. class RC1 1. WRC	108.4 km/h	36:04.0	2. 2. class RC1 2. WRC
"I describe it as quite a tricky stage. It was much more wet and humid and even a bit icier than we had in the recce. The downhill is very fast and it was a bit surprising in some corners."
SS4 Guillaumes / Péone / Valberg 1 (13.49 km)	7:40.1	1. 1. class RC1 1. WRC	105.6 km/h	43:44.1	2. 2. class RC1 2. WRC
"I am feeling well with the car. I tried to push hard in these two stages but it’s quite tricky. In some places you have a lot of grip but in others you have nothing. The car is feeling good and we are going to push."
SS5 Val-de-Chalvagne / Entrevaux 1 (17.11 km)	10:56.8	1. 1. class RC1 1. WRC	93.8 km/h	54:40.9	1. 1. class RC1 1. WRC
"I was pushing really hard all morning and the car is great. I have a very good feeling with this car, so I continue to push. It was tricky with the ice, but my gravel crew made a very good job so I tried to push from the beginning to the end."
SS6 Roure / Beuil 2 (18.33 km)	9:57.2	1. 1. class RC1 1. WRC	110.5 km/h	1:04:38.1	1. 1. class RC1 1. WRC
"I am feeling really well in the car, so I know that I am on the limit. It was a perfect stage. At the moment everything is going well, so we will try to continue like that."
SS7 Guillaumes / Péone / Valberg 2 (13.49 km)	7:34.8	3. 3. class RC1 3. WRC	106.8 km/h 0.21 s/km	1:12:12.9	1. 1. class RC1 1. WRC
"My run was really good, but I had no hybrid. For sure we lost a lot of time, but we are pushing as hard as possible."
SS8 Val-de-Chalvagne / Entrevaux 2 (17.11 km)	10:36.1	4. 4. class RC1 4. WRC	96.8 km/h 0.26 s/km	1:22:49.0	1. 1. class RC1 1. WRC
"I was really surprised when I was doing the best time in the shakedown in the first pass because usually in the shakedown I am not great, but since that we tried to push to get a feeling in the car. It's not a big gap, but we are happy to be leading after the first day."
3. leg
SS9 Le Fugeret / Thorame-Haute (16.80 km)	9:20.1	7. 7. class RC1 7. WRC	108.0 km/h 0.43 s/km	1:32:09.1	1. 1. class RC1 1. WRC
"It was more difficult today. The road is very dirty in our position and I think we pay a little bit with the super-soft tyres. There was a lot of movement and understeering and my drive was not perfect."
SS10 Saint-Jeannet / Malijai 1 (17.04 km)	9:32.9	4. 4. class RC1 4. WRC	107.1 km/h 0.38 s/km	1:41:42.0	1. 1. class RC1 1. WRC
"I had a good stage but this kind of stage is so slippery and rough which doesn't help. It seems this morning, the stages are not for me, so we will see in the next one."
SS11 Saint-Geniez / Thoard 1 (20.79 km)	14:22.5	4. 4. class RC1 4. WRC	86.8 km/h 0.26 s/km	1:56:04.5	2. 2. class RC1 2. WRC
"It's not easy to drive with two studs and two slicks. It's not easy to keep the car straight. I tried to push, but Ogier was much faster."
SS12 Saint-Jeannet / Malijai 2 (17.04 km)	9:24.0	2. 2. class RC1 2. WRC	108.8 km/h 0.01 s/km	2:05:28.5	2. 2. class RC1 2. WRC
"It's quite tight. The battle is quite intense, but I tried to push as much as possible. I can't do much more."
SS13 Saint-Geniez / Thoard 2 (20.79 km)	14:35.7	5. 5. class RC1 5. WRC	85.5 km/h 1.01 s/km	2:20:04.2	2. 2. class RC1 2. WRC
"Now it's a bit far. We tried, but Ogier saw it and he changed at the last minute. It was really tricky with the slicks and very easy to make a mistake, but we are here."
4. leg
SS14 La Penne / Collongues 1 (19.37 km)	11:27.9	1. 1. class RC1 1. WRC	101.4 km/h	2:31:32.1	2. 2. class RC1 2. WRC
"A good stage, but it's hard to keep a good rhythm."
SS15 Briançonnet / Entrevaux 1 (14.26 km)	8:56.9	5. 5. class RC1 5. WRC	95.6 km/h 0.46 s/km	2:40:29.0	2. 2. class RC1 2. WRC
"The information was quite good, but the first part of the stage was a bit surprising in some places that were really slippery. I didn't take too many risks because the grip was changing all the time."
SS16 La Penne / Collongues 2 (19.37 km)	11:21.0	1. 1. class RC1 1. WRC	102.4 km/h	2:51:50.0	1. 1. class RC1 1. WRC
SS17 Briançonnet / Entrevaux 2[Power Stage] (14.26 km)	8:42.8	4. 4. class RC1 4. WRC	98.2 km/h 0.49 s/km	3:00:32.8	1. 1. class RC1 1. WRC
"I feel really happy! I didn't expect so much when I came here, but it was a great fight. Ogier was really fast and I struggled a bit yesterday and even this morning."
