Info
"I think the grip is better when it's a bit wet with these front wheel drives. The last three have gone really well,
as far as I'm concerned."
"We had some big issues and lost half an hour. We'll try to get to the service and let's see if we'll continue
from there or not. Technical problems."
"I'm still working on with the wet roads and different kinds of surfaces. I'm learning on the fly. Huge variance of
grip from one section to another but it's good, nice roads."
"Not too good this Saturday's loop. We had a half roll and we lost three minutes trying to get back again."
"You could leave the braking for later. There have been no technical problems."
"The day has come off nicely. I'm trying to find more confidence, let's enjoy and have fun. I'm getting quite
confident on the smaller roads but would like to be confident also on the bigger ones."
"The morning loop was good; I enjoyed it too much!"
"The first two stages were not so good but the last two were OK. We have to be careful to finish the rally."
"The conditions are good and we have done quite well. We had a puncture on the previous one and we were
lucky it wasn't anything serious. There are some stones in Patajoki."
"It was a bit tricky, in some places was grip and in others less."
"All kinds of issues. We haven't had a single clean run. In Rapsula we were in a ditch and then we spun, and
the car was restless. Let's see if we're going to continue."
"I'm starting to be more confident with the car and the pacenotes. It's getting better."
"A load of problems. In a junction on the previous stage we went just a little bit wide but the rear wheel hit a
rock and we lost our brakes. Let's hope we can continue."
"Quite OK, and the grip improved towards the last stages. We're thinking about new ways to stick us to the
road better. There might a lot of stones on the second pass."
"The morning loop was OK. It's nice to get back to the rhythm of yesterday. These guys are one day ahead of
us in terms of pace. It's getting better and better."
"It's good, fantastic stages. I'm enjoying a lot - happy to be here!"
"The morning loop was OK, but this last stage I didn't like much. We changed the setup for the car. Conditions
are strange - high grip although it's raining. It's not easy in this speed."
"The grip was very inconsistent. This was very tricky. I'm enjoying, I like the rally."
"The feeling is good. It has been a struggle the whole morning, and rain is not for us. We also had the same
problem with the note as Kalle in that place. There is still also a slight technical problem with the car. I hope
mother has prepared something nice for us at the service!"
"It was the same as the previous ones. I'm having some kind of a horrible mental lock. A few corners I'm doing
OK but then I'm struggling again. We have tried all kinds of tricks to improve. The feeling is high but then it
goes down when you see the result on the flipboard."
"[The rear bumper is hanging loose.] This thing flew at me! [Appears to be something from the dashboard.]"
"You have to be committed. Nice and flowing stages like all the Finland stages - they're good fun."
"There was a spectator walking on the road and that took us by surpise."
"Our VIP event was near the start - greetings to them! That maybe gave us some extra boost. The end was great and the feeling was good."
"I had a feeling it would be a good stage. Usually it's better for me to drive a new stage than one that's been
done before. I hope tomorrow will be exciting as well."
"It was a good stage for us. Nothing special. I like the battle, it's quite tight so I have to be on the limit all the time."
"It was a good stage with no real moments. I was in a very good rhythm and it was all we could do."
"We had some nice moments at least. It's not an easy stage - the grip is changing here and there. It all went well, but there were some slides."
"The issue is, you have to be 100 per cent everywhere and that wasn't quite the case. On the long blind corners at the end it's difficult to judge then limit and not go over it."
"It's a new stage, so you can always try to make something. We are lucky to be here - I had one note a bit too fast and I we were completely off the road. That's rally sometimes! We are here, so it's all good."
"It's a very tricky stage. The guys behind will be going much quicker because I was so careful. I am not happy at all with my driving, but the conditions are so tricky. It's better to stay on the road."
"It was an okay morning for us. We've had a clean run through so far. It is what it is - it's not a secret that we can not fight with the guys at the front anymore, and that's not our target either."
"I did a mistake in a long straight - I braked because I misheard a note. It's tricky."
"They were way too slow - especially at the end of the stage. I was hesitating a lot, so it wasn't very good."
"It's not nice to drive when you have this kind of issue. Sometimes it's working quite okay, but then other times it's stuck. You have to be really careful."
"It's a brand new stage for everybody but the grip is so inconsistent. It wasn't really easy but we are happy - it was a big challenge to open the road this morning with a lot of big stones out of the line."
