 #69 Kalle ROVANPERÄ / Jonne HALTTUNEN 

“It is not possible to do something in this situation.”

#8 Ott TÄNAK / Martin JÄRVEOJA

“I know. Before the stage they told us to hold positions. That’s it.”

#11 Thierry NEUVILLE / Martijn WYDAEGHE

“One stage left. It’s going to be a tough stage. We are going to have a steady run too.”

#18 Takamoto KATSUTA / Aaron JOHNSTON

“After the last one we changed some things to the car. It’s better. But the stage is different. We are still trying. Now we focus on the Power Stage and get the car back to the finish.”

#42 Craig BREEN / Paul NAGLE 

“There is a lot of cleaning. The car is good. It was an OK morning for us. Now let’s see what we can do at the Power Stage.”

#4 Esapekka LAPPI / Janne FERM

“There is a lot of cleaning. This stage will be quicker for the cars behind. It’s really slippery.”

#6 Dani SORDO / Candido CARRERA

“After Evans retired, the tactic is different for me. I take it more easy. Try to get to the end of the Rally, and that’s it.”

#44 Gus GREENSMITH / Jonas ANDERSSON

“Very loose. Short shifting to find traction. Very slippery.”

#7 Pierre-Louis LOUBET / Vincent LANDAIS 

“We took it very carefully in this one. The target is to finish and that's what I am concentrating on.”
