Info
"Today was a tough day, the stages were very rough but we had no punctures and no problems, so we've had a good run. I need to be careful in the next couple of days - then maybe a good result."
"The day was really great for us. Okay, I would like to battle with Camilli [ who is not registered for points here], but I must think about my championship."
Juho and co-driver Kaj Lindstrom have parked their Yaris close to the stage end and are making repairs. They have tried to repair a cracked cooling system pipe and have topped up the system using their drinking water. Lindstrom gives a quick explanation of what happened in stage: "Hit a bank."
"The afternoon was good. The times are really good considering we have a stuck damper. Stage wins I didn't expect. Okay, it seems we can learn pretty quickly. But at this level it's not easy to fine tune and find more improvements."
"A tricky afternoon. I tried to push back but it didn't work out. Of course it was a gamble but sometimes you need to do that. The soft tyres did work but they didn't give me the support. I just wore the tyres out basically."
"A tough day in the new car but it has been great to get the mileage. I know which way to go forward. A lot of mistakes in the hairpins. Okay, we're learning."
big front end damage, broken pipes from radiator... He leaves the finish control without explaining what happened.
"I enjoyed that, and I enjoyed the rally, unfortunately the problem in the morning cost me a lot of time."
"This was the only place where we were going to gain from two spares, so I tried to do my best. This afternoon has been really difficult, not a good feeling. Let's see what tomorrow brings."
"It's been a very difficult afternoon. With the [damper] problem the car hasn't right. The priority today was getting a good road position for tomorrow. And that's mission accomplished. I love tomorrow's stages - they suit me and they suit the car. It would be rude if we didn't give it a try."
"A reasonably good time. After an up and down morning I'm happy with the afternoon. We are well in the fight for Saturday."
"I have no tyres left - from the beginning. We have a slow puncture on the front-left too. This time won't be the fastest..."
"Tomorrow won't be much better because there won't be many cars in front of me. That's the WRC."
