| "For sure, it's much better than last year! Not really what I hoped for, but that's part of rallying. We have a lot of work to do for sure, but it was great to come to the finish. It's thanks to all the mechanics - without them nothing is possible. We have to push on and be flat-out from here." | ||||||
