Other info
Best known for the famous roundabout at Coll de la Teixeta, soon after the start, where drivers complete a 360 degree doughnut in front of huge crowds packed on the hillsides. Much of the stage is downhill, and the opening part to Duesaigües is twisty and complicated. After passing under the landmark railway bridge, the road becomes flatter and faster, before skirting Riudecanyes reservoir and onto the finish.

Info
"We took off the light pods before the stage and forgot about the bonnet clips. Then in the stage the intercom stopped working."
"At the roundabout, I hand braked as normal, went for the power and there didn't seem to be anything there. I don't know why but I reckon I dropped four seconds. The time still seems okay."
"Yes, I guess its going to be like this to the end. I need to give it everything but I don't want to take full risks."
"It won't be difficult for him to be quicker than me here - in this stage we have no chance. Understeer, understeer, understeer. I can't go on the throttle. So frustrating. We are not competitive."
"Very tough with the gearbox, not enjoyable at all. I try my best. I'm going close to the limit - not over it. I don't see a chance to pass him."
WRC TV crew reports Mikkelsen is driving with the bonnet up.
"I'm losing time in the twisty sections - I can't do any miracles. Let's see."
He has gone off an collided with an armco barrier.
"A good stage. I stopped at the roundabout to have a look."
WRC+ live tracking shows his Toyota stopped at 11.7km
"I struggled a lot in here. Just couldn't get the front end to turn in."
"No cuts in the road. A good start. It's getting better - all about the mileage."
