Info

Kankkunen Juha
- Repo Juha

The morning was difficult for us. On the wide roads we have went relatively well. When there is not a lot of accelerations and you can keep the right foot down, it goes well. We don't give up, the guys don't give up either. Driving against Sainz is not a new situation for us. Tommi is too far already.

Sainz Carlos
- Moya Luis

I did my best but I couldn't go any faster. The rally is still not over yet.

Mäkinen Tommi
- Mannisenmäki R.

Our lead is solid. We have went flat out all the time since Carlos is pushing hard. Today it has been better to drive, it has been slippery only at times.
