Seat Ibiza GTi 16V | Accident |
Info
Now these couple of last stages have been quite good, in Sahalahti we went into a field but if we come safely the times are quite good.
I hit a stone with the rear wheel and had a puncture, I had to slow down a bit at the end. Otherwise it went well.
[Ouninpohja] is a fast and nice stage. If there is no grip it's difficult to drive. We need to try. A bit difficult [to play tactics for start position] because the boys are behind me, I can't do anything, same situation as last night
Yes, nothing to do about it, it's slippery [being first on the road], there is no coarser surface on the brakings, it's difficult for us. There's not a lot of [loose gravel] but a small layer of dust, small layer of gravel, no brake marks, nothing, it's difficult. We keep pushing.
