#33 Elfyn EVANS - Scott MARTIN

“We really struggle. I can't get any traction.”

#18 Takamoto KATSUTA - Aaron JOHNSTON

“There are too many rocks. Tricky stage. It’s a new stage and we check the paceontos in some places. Not too bad.”

#99 Oliver SOLBERG - Elliott EDMONDSON

“I was too cautious all morning. We were not pushing. We didn't understand how we got the puncture in the previous stage.”

#5 Sami PAJARI - Marko SALMINEN

“I try to be smart and clean in many places and not destroy the tyres.”

#1 Sébastien OGIER - Vincent LANDAIS

“I try to be on the safe side. Adrien (Fourmaux) has a different risk approach.”

#16 Adrien FOURMAUX - Alexandre CORIA

“I was trying to be very smooth on the tyres. I was pushing at the beginning but after that I managed it. We will see.”

#11 Thierry NEUVILLE - Martijn WYDAEGHE

“Good feeling with the car. Still struggling with the rear of the car in some places. We try to avoid all the stones on the road. We had a clean run. No major issues.”

#95 Jon ARMSTRONG - Shane BYRNE

“I had no grip, but I think it's the same for everybody. This stage is hard for the tires. The stage time is good, we will try to manage our tires.”

#6 Daniel SORDO - Cándido CARRERA

“We had a puncture. I was trying to be clean, but a stone cut the side of the tyre.” Stopped on stage and change a tyre.

#55 Joshua MCERLEAN - Eoin TREACY
