#21 Oliver SOLBERG / Elliott EDMONDSON
“Absolutely incredible weekend, big relief now. Discipline and focus go together this weekend. Discipline to not drive too fast, to really have your eyes open, to almost hold back, not get too excited. It’s probably one of my best and hardest weekends. The goal was to win the Rally, but also not to panic. It’s a big rally, anything can happen. The plan was to find a rhythm and still have enough time to avoid all the rocks. I even avoided the smallest rocks today and the whole weekend, I didn't want to risk anything. And then I pushed where I could.”
#23 Gus GREENSMITH / Jonas ANDERSSON
“It was a good end to the day, on one stage we definitely had the speed, but holding it the whole rally is not possible at the moment. It’s a long way to go, we need to go further up the podium.”
#34 Kajetan KAJETANOWICZ / Maciej SZCZEPANIAK
“I participated in 8 Acropolis Rallies, but this was the toughest one. Because of the weather, because of the strong competition this year. And the stages were amazing, but rough, everything makes this year’s Rally the toughest. We did a really good job, we are still learning, it’s my first season with Toyota.”
#35 Emil LINDHOLM / Reeta HÄMÄLÄINEN
“It was a demanding event for everyone with the high temperature, for the cars and the tyres. It’s a nice event, but we didn’t have luck. Maybe we were not really well prepared.”
#42 Robert VIRVES / Jakko VIILO
“Not the result we wanted, many punctures and some issues. We wanted to fight at least for the podium, but with all these issues it wasn’t possible. Otherwise it was a nice rally”.
#50 Epameinondas KARANIKOLAS / Georgios KAKAVAS
“Overall, we probably weren’t in good shape. We didn’t know the car well, nor were we 100% prepared. We should have prepared better. It wasn’t just the punctures. Οverall, the rally didn’t go well.”
#30 Léo ROSSEL / Guillaume MERCOIRET
“We had some problems, but I’m happy to finish in the top ten of the WRC2 classification and top 5 in WRC2 Challenger. This is my first season in WRC2, I don't have a lot of experience in gravel and I’m happy to be here.
