Info
SS1 was a good fit to the car, but I could not drive SS2 and 3 well. I would like to improve my stage time on Section 2.
I have to finish the rally, so I drove carefully - but my stage times were not bad. I will try to finish the rally in this way.
We lost much time on SS1 but somehow we are within the top group. I would like to gain the leader's position in the latter section of the day.
The power band of Yaris fits with Rally Hokkaido very well, and finally we could come to the rally where it is competitive against other cars. I suppose road surface gets rougher so we will concentrate on driving.
Some part of the road was difficult due to loose gravel so I drove carefully. We are fighting close battle and we have to concentrate. It seems Yaris is very fast on fast stages with high average speed. We will keep pushing on Section 2, too.
Mr. Koyama on his Yaris was very fast on SS1. I won the SS2 and 3 but still have not been able to catch up with him. Maybe it is tough for us, as this year we do not have Kunneywa and Yam Wakka stages.
Maybe I was a bit too careful, but my stage times were not bad. I will try not to break the car while keeping pushing.
Somehow I am not doing well enough. We are currently 2nd fastest in the class, and after some adjustment of the settings it got better. I will try to finish the day as a class leader.
Road surface was drier than I expected, and I could get a good grip of the road. We had a trouble on SS1 and lost 1second per kilometers, and have not been able to catch up with the class leader.
I had a trouble on SS1. There were a lot of loose gravel and the car frequently went about to go off from the road. I will be careful not to lose traction with the road.
I am good at gravel roads, but somehow I feel the gravel road here is difficult. I cannot get a good grip of the road because of loose gravels. The car is not bad, so I would like to push harder on the Section 2.
So far, so good. SS2 was slippery and did not push hard but still I won the stage, and now I believe I can win the rally if I do not make a mistake.
It is long since I rallied on gravel last time, and so I am somewhat careful. The setting changes we made with the car was not good, so we will change it back and push harder in the afternoon.
Driving fine, no problem with the car. I would like to keep this way.
砂利をかかなければいけない立場なので、全開率に対してタイムがあまり良くないが、2 秒差につけているので、明日に繋げられるようにしたい。
There were a lot of loose gravel on SS1 and SS2. In addition, SS2 was narrow and difficult stage, so I tried to go faster than the others.
I had 12 years of time since my last rally, and it has been difficult to catch up with the speed of this rally I will try to improve my speed gradually.,
It has been a tough rally. There were so much loose gravel and I had several dangerous moments. I will stay cautious and will do my best.
I had my car rolled up to 90 degrees on its side, but the damage to the car was just cosmetic one. As there is no room for more damage with the car, so I will not push much and aim to finish the rally.
The engine would not rev-up smoothly on SS1, but the symptom was resolved on SS3, so I will push harder and will move up myself in the standings.
There has been much loose gravel on the road surface. I was too careful as the tyres I am using today are new to me. I think there will be less loose gravel on the next loop and I will push harder.
