#24		Huttunen Jari - Lukka Mikko		Hyundai i20 R5	Engine

Info

#32

Heikkilä Mikko
- Luhtinen Topi

“At one cross-roads I was slowing down went too far into the junction. There were no further problems but it was slippery.”

#31

Lindholm Emil
- Korhonen Mikael

“The stage was in a bad condition because there was holes in the road. We must see what we do with the car.”

#30

Asunmaa Teemu
- Salminen Marko

It was very difficult and we did not succeed as we wanted to. I was too nervous but I will try to relax and make a better time later.”

#29

Prokop Martin
- Ernst Michal

“It was difficult because the feeling on the first part was nice but in the second part there was a lot of gravel. But a very nice stage.”

#28

Linnamäe Georg
- Korsia V.

“We missed a junction. We also hit a bank and spun on the stage and lost time.”

#25

Lappi Esapekka
- Ferm Janne

“It was fine, completely different from the shakedown, super-tricky. A lot of loose snow. I tried to drive quite safely in the grooves.”

#23

Johnston Sean
- Kihurani A.

“We’ve got some weird sound coming from the front brakes. I had a good rhythm in the beginning, then we fell off a bit.”

#22

Brynildsen E.
- Gulbæk Engan V.

“It feels so great to be here and I’m really happy for my time. It’s the best thing you can do with the clothing on.’’

#21

Fourmaux Adrien
- Jamoul Renaud

“It was really nice stage. It was very good and enjoyable. We need to improve the time.’’

#20

Mikkelsen Andreas
- Fløene Ola

“It was okay, my tyres were going off towards the end. But it was a clean stage with no other issues.”

#26

Veiby O.
- Andersson J.

"Throttle issue from the start of SS1, but pushing on for the next stage!"

#24

Huttunen Jari
- Lukka Mikko

stopped

Loubet Pierre-Louis
- Landais V.

"It's not so bad - we will see! I was very careful in some parts with the the tyres. It's better than the ice in Monte!"

Solberg Oliver
- Marshall S.

"It's very tricky and my front tyres are finished! Not so good, but very enjoyable anyway. I had to stop and reverse and lost around 10sec, but okay, I am learning!"

#42

Breen Craig
- Nagle Paul

"In this big boys game you have to be on it from the first pass but I was way too slow."

Suninen Teemu
- Markkula Mikko

"Quite nice conditions - I haven't seen better conditions than we are having now."

Tänak Ott
- Järveoja Martin

"It's hard to say it's perfect, there is still quite a lot of understeer. It's a very demanding stage and the conditions were nice. For sure it's enjoyable, but it's only the first stage and there's a long way to go."

#44

Greensmith Gus
- Edmondson E.

"It was really enjoyable. Some places I had a good rhythm but then in others I wouldn't. I was hoping for a bit better than that, we'll try and do better."

#18

Katsuta Takamoto
- Barritt Daniel

"Grip is getting worse at the end. Some corners I had very good grip - it's very difficult to judge."

#69

Rovanperä Kalle
- Halttunen J.

"I was stuck in the snow bank for a while. I just came into a junction and I just went wide and hit the rear. The time is not that bad, but we can not have mistakes like that again."

#11

Neuville Thierry
- Wydaeghe M.

"There is a lot of cleaning and a lot of fresh snow. I was already getting some benefit from the lines. We were looking to find a good rhythm and it didn't work all the time. It won't be enough for the guys behind, that's for sure."

#33

Evans Elfyn
- Martin Scott

"The grip deteriorated and got more loose towards the end. You feel like in some places you can go faster, but in other places it's naturally more on the limit. It's difficult to find the balance in these conditions."

Ogier Sébastien
- Ingrassia J.

"It was quite soft conditions with the snow. Unfortunately I don't think I will have a great time. I am happy with my driving - I drove much better than this morning on the shakedown."
