"It's tricky to judge the grip in this one. It's very changeable. It's a bit of a compromise tyre-choice wise today, but let's see."
SS4 Guillaumes / Péone / Valberg 1 (13.49 km)	7:42.8	5. 5. class RC1 5. WRC	104.9 km/h 0.20 s/km	43:41.3	1. 1. class RC1 1. WRC
"It's really quite slippery. There are a lot of hairpins near the end with very low traction to drive. I am on the safe side at the moment with these conditions."
SS5 Val-de-Chalvagne / Entrevaux 1 (17.11 km)	11:12.6	7. 7. class RC1 7. WRC	91.6 km/h 0.92 s/km	54:53.9	3. 3. class RC1 3. WRC
"It's tricky and there is a lot of frost and a bit of black ice. The road will get faster now. Quite a difficult loop for us, but we will try again this afternoon."
SS6 Roure / Beuil 2 (18.33 km)	10:00.1	2. 2. class RC1 2. WRC	110.0 km/h 0.16 s/km	1:04:54.0	3. 3. class RC1 3. WRC

"I think we can not do any more at the moment. We are struggling with traction coming out of some hairpins, but I am doing the best I can with what I have."
SS8 Val-de-Chalvagne / Entrevaux 2 (17.11 km)	10:31.6	1. 1. class RC1 1. WRC	97.5 km/h	1:22:58.9	2. 2. class RC1 2. WRC
"This morning we were a little bit on the safe side. This afternoon I pushed but we can not go much faster - we are missing some stability with the car and some traction. At the moment it's not possible to go faster, but we can be happy with our afternoon loop."

SS10 Saint-Jeannet / Malijai 1 (17.04 km)	9:26.4	1. 1. class RC1 1. WRC	108.3 km/h	1:41:42.0	1. 1. class RC1 1. WRC
"It was not a bad stage for us. We're still struggling a bit with our super-softs, but it will be even worse for him [Loeb]."

"I was planning to go with the snow tyres because it was the safest option, but I saw that Séb was going for slicks, so I quickly changed at the last minute before the start. It was tricky to drive in places but fun on the dry bits.

"I was really careful of punctures in this one, so I tried to stay away from every sharp cut. It was a clean stage, but still tricky in places."
SS16 La Penne / Collongues 2 (19.37 km)	11:55.1	8. 8. class RC1 8. WRC	97.5 km/h 1.76 s/km	2:51:59.5	2. 2. class RC1 2. WRC

"There was a strange noise on the engine at the start and I was disturbed, maybe I released a little early. I can keep my head up. I did my job this weekend and that's the way it is. Well done to the team, it's been a good weekend for the first time with the hybrid."
