Info
"In the last stage I stalled three times and here I stalled twice. I'm really struggling in the hairpins. Perhaps I need to use the clutch more, I don't know."
Mads is regretting his gamble on a mixture of soft and hard compound tyres. "I'm not enjoying this, it's not going so well. Our mixed tyre choice was wrong. The softs were not working. I struggled."
His rear-left tyre is missing a huge chunk of rubber from the sidewall and the rear-right is punctured. "I don't know where it happened but I pushed very hard."
Struggling with the balance of his Fiesta. "We are carrying two extra spares. Not so easy to drive with the extra weight."
"The set-up now is perfect," he acknowledges. "This morning we were trying some development dampers. We changed the set up in service and it's good."
"Something on the turbo wasn't fixed very well in the service park. The intercooler is not working, so no power. I tried to fix it before the stage. I will try again to fix it now."
"Okay. A bit rougher than the first one and I'm not confident in the ruts. I'm happy with this time."

"This one was really difficult on the hard tyres. The balance didn't feel good, I think we've broken the front-left damper."
The dashboard is lit up with warning lights - and a message reads 'rear diff high'. "Nothing to worry about," Latvala says unconvincingly. "The stage was tricky. There is grip in the line but of it it's very slippery."
He completes and jumps out of his car to have a look at his hard compound tyres. "Yeah, they're okay. For sure some more wear this afternoon - it's more hot and abrasive. Still some cleaning, but it is improved since this morning."
