Info
"Okay, a little gamble maybe, but the surface is so loose it's okay. No moments, I tried to push a bit more here."
"I lost second gear on the first stage - so that's it," he says. "I think we can get through but I cannot drive normally. Braking without second gear is not good, I spun once already. I need to keep calm until we can get to service."
He's still going. The oil leak was traced to the gearbox (gearbox housing damaged after a heavy landing ) - not the engine.
"There is a lot of dust in the forest section. A two-minute gap for us is not enough."
Reports a missed junction in SS2. "The stages are quite rough already"
"Difficult conditions. I made a mistake on the first one, it's difficult to read the road."
"Not good. I got a puncture 500 metres into the first stage. Now I'm struggling with the way the car feels on one hard and three soft compound tyres."
"Encouraging, yes but very difficult to find the rhythm - especially in the dust. In places it feels like we're catching the car ahead."
"I'm not concerned. Just getting used to the car and learning it."
"The stages are rougher than I anticipated. Hanging dust is a big problem. For sure we have a good road position, but it's not easy to drive when you can't see."
"Very, very tricky with the dust. Okay, the road position is helping us a bit but the car feels comfortable and the time is good. It's like the old me is back again."
Second quickest but there's a strong smell of burning oil coming from Craig's Citroen and he looks concerned. What's wrong? "I'll find out in a minute." Is it a problem? "Could be..." Craig drives away from the control to investigate.

"No prefect by any means, because of the dust and changeable grip. Okay but not great."
"It's cleaning a bit but not much. Slippery everywhere. A lot of dust in the stage too - so I lost some time there."
There is some foliage poking from the front of his Fiesta. Has he been off? "There was a bad jump and I took it a bit on the side. Messy stuff in places. In a few places I was not comfortable."
He missed a junction "I went in a little bit too fast and had to stop and reverse. I lost four or five seconds there. It's hard to stay committed on these stages, it's very easy to make a mistake."
"This stage is the most difficult of the rally but if you are confident here you can make a big difference."
