| "Very happy with the first stage. I went absolutely flat-out. This one is a different thing - there is a lot of water and a lot of aquaplaning in the stage. I don't know if our road position is good for this one or not, but we will see." | ||||||

| "I tried! I tried to push as much as I could and took some risks in places. We need to prepare the car for the second pass, because we are cleaning the lines from the previous pass. It's really difficult, but we will try to do our best." | ||||||

| "I am very happy. We learned something from last year, so that's good. In this stage I just tried to keep it on the road. There was a lot of water and mud. I was trying to avoid the water splashes, but it's better than before." | ||||||
