STAGE FLASH

Date:06/10/2018
Section:2
Special Stage:SS6 Slate Mountain 2 (1.63 km)

5. Thierry Neuville (BEL) / Nicolas Gilsoul (BEL) - Hyundai i20 Coupé WRC
We can't follow the pace of the Toyota's. Even if we try we make some mistakes. We are not setting any good times but I'm sure we can sort the problems out for later.

8. Ott Tänak (EST) / Martin Järveoja (EST) - Toyota Yaris WRC
We might change the set up to adapt to the wet conditons.

1. Sébastien Ogier (FRA) / Julien Ingrassia (FRA) - Ford Fiesta WRC
It's the end of the morning but it's a bit of a disaster. The gearbox has to last a 100km road section - no one knows if it's going to hold or not.

9. Esapekka Lappi (FIN) / Janne Ferm (FIN) - Toyota Yaris WRC
The water is coming more and more, especially on the road which makes controlling it difficult.

7. Jari-Matti Latvala (FIN) / Miikka Anttila (FIN) - Toyota Yaris WRC
It was not too bad, looking to improve set up in service.

3. Teemu Suninen (FIN) / Mikko Markkula (FIN) - Ford Fiesta WRC
Its been a pretty OK morning, few mistakes but really tight fight with all the other guys. Hopefully it can get better but not easy to be in top three.

2. Elfyn Evans (GBR) / Daniel Barritt (GBR) - Ford Fiesta WRC
Its been good, a difficult stage in here to be honest. The fog is moving all around. All in all it's been OK.

6. Hayden Paddon (NZL) / Sebastian Marshall (GBR) - Hyundai i20 Coupé WRC
A nice little stage, a lot of fun

10. Mads Ostberg (NOR) / Torstein Eriksen (NOR) - Citroen C3 WRC
The conditions were changing constantly, but was not so bad.

11. Craig Breen (IRL) / Scott Martin (GBR) - Citroen C3 WRC
Standing water but not so bad

31. Pontus Tidemand (SWE) / Jonas Andersson (SWE) - Skoda Fabia R5
Good, car felt very good.

We're taking it easy, we had a puncture earlier on, and are now on our last spare.

Very stoney, very narrow, fog made it hard.

35. Ole Christian Veiby (NOR) / Stig Rune Skjaermoen (NOR) - Skoda Fabia R5
Hard with the fog, difficult to see, had two punctures.

36. Kalle Rovanperä (FIN) / Jonne Halttunen (FIN) - Skoda Fabia R5
It was OK, changed a tyre just before the stage.

37. Jari Huttunen (FIN) / Antti Linnaketo (FIN) - Hyundai i20 R5

40. Stéphane Lefebvre (FRA) / Gabin Moreau (FRA) - Citroen C3 R5

62. Enrico Brazzoli (ITA) / Luca Beltrame (ITA) - Peugeot 208 R2
Short stage but went OK.

41. Marco Bulacia Wilkinson (BOL) / Fabian Cretu (ARG) - Skoda Fabia R5
Too much standing water to get any grip.

61. Taisko Lario (FIN) / Tatu Hatamalainen (FIN) - Peugeot 208 R2
I liked it in there, lots of standing water but it was OK.

64. Tom Williams (GBR) / Phil Hall (GBR) - Ford Fiesta R2

63. Louise Cook (GBR) / Stefan Davis (GBR) - Ford Fiesta R2
The windscreen is completely steamed up.

89. Paulo Nobre (BRA) / Gabriel Morales (BRA) - Skoda Fabia R5

82. David Bogie (GBR) / John Rowan (IRL) - Skoda Fabia R5

Great for the fans, it's been OK for me.

95. Tony Jardine (GBR) / Tom Cary (GBR) - Mitsubishi Evolution IX GT
Big thumbs down - not a world championship standard stage.

88. Sacha Kakad (GBR) / James Aldridge (GBR) - Ford Fiesta R5
That was a car breaker. Going to have a bit of a reset at service

97. John Morrison (GBR) / Peter Carstairs (GBR) - Mitsubishi Lancer Evolution IX
Too rough, thats not rallying.

100. Jordan Reynolds (GBR) / Peredur Davies (GBR) - Ford Fiesta R2
