"There's that - and it's just not been a great afternoon. We had a slow puncture after the second stage, so we were having to use a rain tyre on this stage which was not ideal."

"You're never really pleased with second. I think overall it was a solid weekend. That puncture on Friday probably cost a few seconds but overall it was a strong weekend and the car has been good."
