Car 1. OGIER/INGRASSIA

Car 3. SUNINEN/LEHTINEN
“I am (disappointed). The hard tyre is not giving me what I need.”
Car 4. LAPPI/FERM
“Very much (cautious). No push, just to be safe.”
Car 5. MEEKE/MARSHALL
“I prefer not to go through water if I can.” The Ulsterman said he would not push for points in the Power Stage.
Car 6. SORDO/DEL BARRIO
“Really slippery and a slow stage. It is not an easy stage. One stage less, so it is okay.”
Car 7. TIDEMAND/FLOENE
“It was quite nice. It was quite an interesting stage and nice to have a line to follow.”

Began the leg with no spare wheels in a bid to save weight and win the Power Stage. “What do I gamble? Gambling zero points is not a gamble….”
Car 10. LATVALA/ANTTILA
“It is important to have a clean day and finish. We need the Manufacturer points.
Car 11. NEUVILLE/GILSOUL
“I push a little bit to see. It was good for the soft there, but I think it will be very hot for this afternoon. We are going to see.”
Car 89. MIKKELSEN/JAEGER
“It is going in the right direction. I wasn’t really pushing that hard. That is good.”
Car 22. GREENSMITH/EDMONDSON
“It’s important for the team. They have put so much hard work in this weekend. The car has been strong and performed well and I need to do my part of the job and bring it home.”
