I came very bad. I'm not sure but I think I've never been this bad in the past. Well, we go on, what can we do. I didn't expect the rain. | ||||||

We're starting to find our pace. I also skidded a bit after a late brake. | ||||||

I think we did well, although our time was a bit worse, the pace was better. I also took some medicine, so my head doesn't hurt anymore - this will be good! | ||||||

We want to try out a new strategy, and for this we stopped a few seconds before the finish so that we don't have to sweep up tomorrow, but it didn't work out. | ||||||

The ground is very loose, we're a little behind to the others because of the sweeping job, but that's it, we go as best we can. | ||||||

We have chosen some medium tires but they didn't stick to anything, like we were driving on ice. We should have come with a soft one, because like this we gonna loose a lot to the others. | ||||||
SS7 Iszka /1 (17.10 km) | 9:55.0 | 4.

We have that problem that we're not doing very well. We tried to come as fast as possible, we really liked it, although this stage is a bit of a car killer. | ||||||
SS8 Várpalota /2 (10.35 km) | 5:25.0 | 6.

|
It doesn't feel so bad, but we're going sideways a lot, which wastes a lot of time. We are trying to set something on the road section, to improve our speed. | ||||||
SS9 Tés /2 (11.50 km) | 8:20.7 | 8.

|
The stage is much cleaner, but in Várpalotán, one of our brakes went off, so we couldn't go really well. | ||||||

We did everything we could, I don't think we could have gone any further. Congratulations to the others! |
