Info

#12

Hagström Pasi
- Gardemeister T.

We lost too much. I was avoiding head-sized stones because we don't have a single mousse tyre. On the small roads the Celica is way too wide. It's just grinding.

#11

Lindholm Sebastian
- Hantunen T.

We stalled and lost about eight seconds. The exhaust is dented so it could affect that.

Auriol Didier
- Giraudet Denis

Car smoking and leaking oil. Co-driver forgot to give time card at the time control and had to run back.
