#47

Nikara Jarkko
- Adachi Sayaka

"It went well. The power steering stuck a bit, which is bad. We changed the car quite a lot; it is stiffer now."

#39

Ciamin Nicolas
- de la Haye T.

"Still struggling with the notes even if the first loop has helped. The level is very high in WRC2 and the car is much faster."

#32

Greensmith Gus
- Parry Craig

"It's getting rough, we didn't get a good first pass because of the car. We lost a bit of time but no problem."

#31

Veiby O.
- Skjærmoen S.

"Quite OK, we catch over two seconds over Jari, we seem to be on the podium so it's good. I've been through the next stages already once so we should be able to push a bit."

#41

Rovanperä Kalle
- Halttunen J.

"OK, the conditions were not that bad. I think that going flat out is the easiest. It's going very well for us with a big lead, a safe loop with good speed."

Tänak Ott
- Järveoja Martin

"Conditions are much more rough now, I had to avoid a lot of stones, I had to be careful. I am having to back off a bit to avoid the stones."

Latvala Jari-Matti
- Anttila M.

"Good stage, was a very good feeling. Made a few little changes in the service and to be fair now I have a really good feeling. Don't think I can catch Mads with normal driving."

Paddon Hayden
- Marshall S.

"Yeah I'm happy with that, the brakes are working perfectly which helps with the confidence. Just looking after the tyres, thinking about the whole loop."

Suninen Teemu
- Markkula Mikko

"We made small changes for this one, it felt okay. Let's see how it will be for the next stages."

Ogier Sébastien
- Ingrassia J.

"Another set-up, we keep working. It is a short stage but first impressions seem okay."

Lappi Esapekka
- Ferm Janne

"I really hope the battle is with Paddon because the cars behind I don't need to focus on, quite a clean stage. I could have gone faster but then the risk is quite high."

#11

Breen Craig
- Martin Scott

"Good, but quite a big jump. First time I was too hestiant but this time I went for it, and got a bump on the skull when I came down!"

Neuville Thierry
- Gilsoul N.

"When it is good like now on the second pass it is a lot better. Plan is to keep it on the road and watch what happens in front of me."

Mikkelsen Andreas
- Jæger Anders

"It is much better now, much more enjoyable but there is still cleaning on the second pass. We had more grip than the first pass though. We made some changes in service, still quite good, I think it's in the right direction."
