SS5
'That was brilliant, enjoyed that one.'
'It's actually quite slippy the second time through, I don't know why. Anyway the puncture's behind us so hopefully we can get through Castle O'er. A lot better than the first time through.'
'For having three brakes it's not too bad!'
'It felt better but the time's worse.'
'Much better, fifteen seconds quicker this time.'
'Great stage, didn't stall it this time.'
'It was good, really enjoyed it. This morning was me, not the car.'
'Slippy in places, the back was out quite a lot. The time wasn't as good as the first time through.'
'We got a puncture 3 miles from the end, it hasn't come off the rim so hopefully no damage. We'll get to the end.'
'I can't get neutral, we've got to go'
'Very tricky with the changeable conditions but we're having a good run'
SS4
'We followed [Michael Binnie] for a good chunk so we've lost a lot of time in there'
'Stages are good, marbley as always as you expect down here. We're loving the car once we get off the line, it's a real driver's car.
'It's a lot better after those two, still far more time to be gotten, but I'm not going there today after the terrible start we had this morning.'
'The last two stages were a lot better than the first two stages, so I'm quite happy.'
'We made a couple of mistakes, we stopped for about a second at a hairpin and then kept going, it just throws you off a wee bit.'
'We were having a good push and then a mile or two from the end there's a fast section down to a hairpin left and we overshot it and stalled and couldn't get going.'
'Still got the lead, we knew Windy Hill would be the stage on the rally that wouldn't suit us with the big straights, but yeah on the whole we're happy. We're trying hard, probably now that its drying it doesn't favour us so much, but we're pushing on and hopefully we can maintain that lead over the next two.'
OTL after off.
SS2
'I kind of expected to be in fourth but I expected to be closer. The pace is good though.'
'We just weren't quite as committed as we'd like to be, but we're very happy at this point. We're third at this moment and not too far behind Euan.'
'Just didn't get into, hopefully we can get it figured out this afternoon and push on'
'It's been ok, it's very difficult in places with the loose rocks, the stages are much softer than expected'
SS1
'Bit scrappy at the start, just from not being in the car. But yeah [the stage] was ok.'
'That was good fun, quite slippy in places actually.'
'A bit hesitant by me through there, not really committing that much.'
'It looked a lot slippier than it probably is'
'Good stage but we stalled on the line.'
'It was really good, but when the rain started I hesitated more, it was really good early doors but I thought 'I need to finish'.'
'Definitely a tricky stage. We got a little with the rain in the middle which was probably the same for everyone else, but a nice and clean stage, good start to the rally.'
'It's slippy, it started to rain in there with me, my screen started fogging up. Not looking for excuses this morning!'
'There's maybe a half a mile stretch with really loose, really big rocks, we got caught out a bit as well and it knocked our rhythm, we were on a good rhythm before that.
'Some loose rocks caught me out'
