Info
The stages have been too fast for the car, we cannot reply [to Colin]. When we go on sixth gear for long we don't match the others, our gear ratio slash engine torque is wrong at the top.
I'm trying very hard for sure, I don't want to come in third place. I think Juha can drive quite well in Finland so I think he should be OK.
It seems that the two Subarus are flying really, they are going very fast, I have no chance to follow that speed.
Damaged rear wheel
We had only one spare wheel, the rear wheel is still broken, as you can see there is a piece missing, it shakes a lot.
