Stage results Kennards Hire Rally Australia 2018

"It's been really good. It was more challenging than I thought with the hard tyres this afternoon. I had the same car on all the stages so I could push well. It was absolutely in the plan to be leading!"

Suninen Teemu
- Markkula Mikko

"I'm part of the game and just need to follow the rules. The pace has been good and it was easier to drive on the second loop."

Paddon Hayden
- Marshall S.

"Quite lucky really, we damaged a wheel on the last stage and the spare was a badly worn soft. Happy to minimise the time loss."

#11

Breen Craig
- Martin Scott

"Doesn't that sound so much nicer and easier to say!"

Evans Elfyn
- Barritt Daniel

"Yeah, that's it really. We're all competitors at the end of the day wanting to compete - especially when you haven't got a seat next year - but we have to respect the decision of the team, at the end of the day we're employed to do a job and that's how it is."

Latvala Jari-Matti
- Anttila M.

"We thought Neuville was 6.9sec quicker but then realised he was a minute slower. The stage wasn't too bad, towards the end there were some slippy places."

Lappi Esapekka
- Ferm Janne

"I need to save the car! My front-end is quite damaged. That was a heavy water splash it seems. It is nice that the engine managed to keep running after these 15 or 20 seconds misfiring."

Tänak Ott
- Järveoja Martin

"Some moments we had because of the missing aero, some places you turn and nothing happens - not a great feeling. I need to try, but the mistakes I've done so far - I don't like these ones."
