Stage results Vodafone Rally de Portugal 2021

"I don't think it will be possible to catch [Østberg]. On this stage we really struggled - I think it's related to the rear tyres, it just snaps a lot. Let's see what we can do on the next one."

#23

Østberg Mads
- Eriksen Torstein

"We are doing our best, but I don't feel comfortable. We are still playing with the settings and trying to get into the frame of the car, but we are still outside to be honest. I am not too happy, it frustrates me a little bit. Okay, the pace is not bad, but it could be a lot better."

#24

Suninen Teemu
- Markkula Mikko

"It was slippery. We had to put two hard tyres on - we have to do what we have to do."

#22

Lappi Esapekka
- Ferm Janne

"Really nice. The grip was a bit higher than I expected, so I could really enjoy it."

#33

Evans Elfyn
- Martin Scott

"So far so good. The first one this morning was a fairly interesting stage, but things are working okay so we're happy enough."

Sordo Dani
- Rozada Borja

"I am not really happy with our time in the first stage. The second stage we tried to push, but the car was moving a lot from the rear. It's so difficult to drive - there is no grip at all, I can't do anything. It's like this."

Ogier Sébastien
- Ingrassia J.

"I am saving the tyres, so we will see when it comes to the power stage. It's always the target to take as much points as we can."

#18

Katsuta Takamoto
- Barritt Daniel

"Just safely through. I don't know what I can do in the power stage, but I tried to find some improvements for the future."

#44

Greensmith Gus
- Patterson Chris

"It's so slippery - I felt like I was stopping the car in places and I just didn't feel like I was carrying the speed, so I've got some work to do in there. Everything is nice and calm and relaxed."

#16

Fourmaux Adrien
- Jamoul Renaud

"It's really good. I am struggling with my tyres today and we tried something different, but I think it didn't work. It's part of the game and it's our first time here."

Tänak Ott
- Järveoja Martin

"Hopefully we can enjoy next time. We need to try, so we will try."

#69

Rovanperä Kalle
- Halttunen J.

"It was quite tricky. It was really good grip on the stage, much more than I was expecting, so I was not pushing so hard. It's going to be a tricky power stage."

#11

Neuville Thierry
- Wydaeghe M.

"It was a high-speed recce, but a lot of cleaning for the first pass. The second pass should be better."
