Four-minute intervals
Car 1. OGIER/INGRASSIA
“All the time I give everything. First stage we had a puncture so you could not see it in the
time. Good, but the rally is very long.”
Car 4. LAPPI/FERM
Fastest time on the stage and takes a lead of 2.1 seconds over Mikkelsen.
Car 5. MEEKE/MARSHALL
“You pick a rhythm. I had to change my line a lot and drive around some big footballs in
the road. To be honest it was not as bad as I expected. The second pass will be a
nightmare, but this was not so bad.”
Car 6. SORDO/DEL BARRIO
Fourth fastest in the stage after his flat tyre in SS2.
Car 8. TÄNAK/JÄRVEOJA
“Hard, very hard. Okay rhythm…!”
Car 10. LATVALA/ANTTILA
“I took it too carefully. I was expecting so many loose rocks on the road. I wanted to get
safely through. No panic.”
Car 11. NEUVILLE/GILSOUL
“I’m more or less sliding. I can’t do more. If I do, I lose the rear. I have no clue. I try my
best.”
Car 89. MIKKELSEN/JAEGER
“It is cleaning a lot. I try and stay away from trouble. There were a lot of rocks.”
Car 22. GREENSMITH/EDMONDSON
Stopped briefly in the stage.
