reversed in hairpin | ||||||
"At the tight hairpin it was as if something had broken for a split-second. I came off the throttle and it spun completely around - it took me completely by surprise and I had to stop and reverse. I took it a bit easy then for the rest of the way up." | ||||||

"It's been really close among the frontrunners so we have to see what's possible. It's really hard on the tyres in here even though we were careful." | ||||||

"I didn't have the best feeling. The tyres were moving quite early on, but other than that it was quite okay. It's been a pretty good weekend in terms of pace. Obviously the disappointment on Friday put us out of contention for the podium, but that's rallying and that's how it goes." |
