Info
"We are always having fun when we are in rally car. It was a tricky stage, many difficult braking places."
Step into Rally2 car is feeling really good, it is definetly a big step up and it will took some time to get used to, but I am ready for this challenge."
I was a little bit struggling. On some places I didn't feel the grip fully, that is why I was feeling nervous, but when our time is fine, than is all good."
"Stage was ok, but quiet slippery to be honest. Jumps are bigger than a last year, I wasn't expecting so big jumps."
"Not the best feeling yet. We lost rear bumper after hard landing after jump."
"We just having nice drifting in one corner. That is Sweden."
Strange engine noise on start
"It is small surprise, because feeling wasn't a really good and on last jump we jumped absolutelly too much. I don't know what we were doing there."
Some damage under the car after big jump
"It was a quiet tricky, it was ice-pace and on braking slippery, so not the best run for me, but ok start start for me."
It was a clean run for me, few touches into snowbanks, but I gues nobody avoid them. Feeling was ok."
"Really strange, right before last corner engine was hearing like running on three cylinders."
Technical issues before finish line
"It was clean one for me."
"I am super happy to be back in Sweden. I love to do these kind of stages and I am super happy to do it with this car. I am looking forward to just enjoying this weekend because it's amazing."
"Quite okay but I struggled quite a lot with the traction coming out of the junctions and under braking."
"I didn't know what to expect with the grip - I think I was a bit too careful. Not very good."
"It's quite tricky with the braking. I couldn't restart the car under braking and we went straight towards the bank. That's how it is on the ice when you lock the wheels."
"It felt okay grip-wise compared to the shakedown. I was a bit careful but the real stages start tomorrow. I will enjoy it."
"A good stage, but the ice was already quite broken. We had an okay feeling."
"I think the snowbanks are just so hard, as soon as you touch them it damages the bodywork straight away. Not a great run."
"I was maybe too careful. I don't feel the grip to be honest, so not a great stage for us. It's okay."
"This one was quite okay. In some sections it's quite slippery with the loose snow but otherwise it was quite good. I just didn't feel like I was driving so good."
