“It was a fast stage. I struggled so much with the grip. I am losing the car in the middle of the corner. It was a bit frustrating. Not so much more I can do.”

“[Georg] Linnamäe is stuck in a snowbank and we lost a bit time in that. He is not totally blocking the road but we still lost some time. I’m not so happy.”

“It is a really fast stage, I pushed as much as I could. The battle will be with Fourmaux.”

“It is a really nice stage to drive, really fast.”

“A beautiful, amazing stage. I really enjoyed that one. I’m trying as hard as I can but I can’t do more than this.”

"It's nice to have a team-mate like Lappi. The stage was okay, in the last part I was losing a bit but I was trying to be a bit more gentle and stay on the line."

"Rallying doesn't really get better than this. We have great conditions, fast roads and big banks! I can't complain."

"I couldn't activate the wipers, so I couldn't see anything! It was good to get out!"

"I thought I did a good stage. I tried to tidy it up in a few places, but honestly, there's not much more I can do."

"There are so many seconds I should be able to take away, but at this stage I can not. I don't have the feeling with the car and it's not doing what I want, so in many places I just lose the car and the line. We have to see what we can do."

"We are missing corners - like sixth gear, long uphills, I am flat out. We can't make a difference. There are no corners to make a difference."

"We have some struggles. We are working on it, but it's not easy - I have to be very concentrated. Not a good stage for us to be honest."

"It's a fast stage, for sure some places could have been better still, but when it's so fast you have to make sure your notes are right first. All okay."

"Quite a nice stage. I was a little bit hesistant on some corners so I lost a few seconds from that. The stages are so amazing, I like them a lot. On the next run I will really push a lot and try to be much faster."

"It was a terrible drive. I couldn't find the confidence on the very fast stuff, it needs such commitment and I was too cautious. I'm learning, so I'm happy."

"I am on the limit - I am happy with my stage. Let's see if the time is good or not."

"That's up there with one of the best stages I have ever driven - it's something really special to drive one of these cars in there. Feeling pretty lucky!"

"This is a very nice stage. I really enjoyed, but it looks like the youngsters are flying! I am enjoying for sure."

"It was amazing. Very nice and enjoyable. I tried to do my best, even if we are first on the road, it is not so bad."
