#51 Epameinondas KARANIKOLAS / Georgios KAKAVAS

“It was a tough Rally. We were unlucky when we hit a stone. But that’s motorsport. We are delighted with our stage times.”

#52 Paschalis CHATZIMARKOS / Marios TSAOUSOGLOU

“This year's Acropolis Rally was really tough. The conditions were rough and the temperatures very high. The stages were in very bad condition. We try to do our best and manage to finish 10th in our category. Everything is fine.”

#53 Efthymios CHALKIAS / Nikolaos KOMNOS

“We enjoy it! The Acropolis Rally was very tough, but that’s the spirit of the Rally. It needs a brain, tactics and a target. And we managed to achieve our goal.”

#55 Emmanouil STEFANIS / Konstantinos STEFANIS

“It was a very difficult Rally. Saturday was very long, but the other two days were as Acropolis should be. We managed to finish the 30th Acropolis of my father Kostas and I am very happy that we achieved that.”

#56 Stefanos THEOCHAROPOULOS / Georgios KOTSALIS

“We are happy to be here. This year’s Acropolis was the toughest I have participated in. There were a lot of loose stones on the road. But the Acropolis Rally is always a unique experience.”

#58 Romet JÜRGENSON / Siim OJA

“You have to protect the car. You need good instinct. It’s an amazing and difficult Rally.”

#59 Taylor GILL / Daniel BRKIC

“It was very hard, rough and tough. I have never seen anything like that. I hope to be here next year. I enjoyed the whole event.”

#60 Diego DOMINGUEZ / Rogelio PEÑATE

“It was more difficult than in the past.”

#61 Ali TÜRKKAN / Burak ERDENER

“It was a difficult Rally, but I have to say the Greek people and the fans are amazing. I want to thank every Greek Rally fan who made this Rally amazing.”

#63 Norbert MAIOR / Francesca MAIOR

“We are very happy about the result, but also for our position in the final standings. Maybe the roughest Rally I have ever seen. But we managed to avoid problems and have a good pace. It was a perfect weekend for us.”

#66 Max SMART / Cameron FAIR

“It was a challenging event for sure! I had six punctures! I really enjoyed the stages. I love gravel stages, but it will be better with less punctures.”

#68 José CAPARÓ / Esther GUTIÉRREZ

“It was difficult, but lovely. This Rally is for clever drivers. We are 4th in JWRC and we are very happy.”

#70 Nataniel BRUUN / Pablo OLMOS

“Very happy to finish the Rally. I enjoy it. We had to do Superally because we didn't have more spare tyres, but we like this Rally.”

#71 André MARTÍNEZ / Matías ARANGUREN

“It was very tough. The stages were very rocky. The most important thing is the strategy. To think about the finish, and not the stages. If you do that, you can have a good result. We had a lot of punctures, but we managed to get here.”

#72 Hubert LASKOWSKI / Michał KUŚNIERZ

“Acropolis was really good. We have a gearbox problem. Today was much better. We won the last stage and we showed our pace. It’s a difficult and demanding Rally, but I like it.”

#75 Matteo FONTANA / Alessandro ARNABOLDI

“It was a really difficult Rally. But we are first in our class and I am very happy! We had some punctures, but not big problems. We are really happy until the next one.”

#77 Eugen CARAGUI / Robert FUS

“It's a tough Rally. But in general it is a nice Rally. It was a very challenging Rally for everybody. Maybe the itinerary would be better.”

#81 Savvas LEFKADITIS / Evangelos AKRATOS

“We are very happy to finish the Rally. We had some problems, but we managed to overcome them. It was the roughest Acropolis I have ever started, but we are here! I want to thank all the people who helped us be here.”

#82 Ioannis PLAGOS / Christos KOUZIONIS

“We managed to finish the toughest Acropolis Rally I have ever been to. We promote our project ‘Safety First’ through the Rally and I want to thank Mrs. Natali Syggelidi και Mr. Syggelidi, and all the people who support us.”

#83 Theodoros KALAMARAS / Dimitrios LAMPRAKIS

“One and only! That’s the Acropolis Rally. The stages were rough, but that’s a proper Acropolis.”
