"It was OK. With this wind it's drying up very quickly the stages. The loose gravel is sticking out so a bit of cleaning for us to do, but anyway that's how it is."

"It's not so nice to be fighting against Seb for the win. He has nothing to lose and I need to think about the championship also. Especially second pass it's not so comfortable - you all the time think about whether to take the risk or not."
