Info
His Yaris is parked close to the stage end. "There is damage to the cooling [system] so the water temperature is high. it's not possible to continue," he explains.
Like the earlier pass he picks up a puncture. Last time it was a left-front, this time it's a right-front.
"I caught the car in front. Then I saw Brynildsen stopped too. I tried to do the best I could."
"We had a puncture. And then we caught Koltun. A big disappointment, but that's how it is sometimes."
"I was stuck behind Brynildsen for 15km. He was driving very slowly. Why did he do that? I'm very angry."

"The rally is completely ruined. Engine problem. We had to stop on stage."
"I spun just a couple of hundred meters before the finish."
Mads running out of order here because of his late service exit when work to replace a gearbox overran. 50-sec penalty applied, he plunges to 10th place. His car is missing its rear spoiler. "It came off when I was absolutely flat out in sixth gear."
"A clean stage. I can confirm the lack of grip. You just need to keep the car in the lines."
"Difficult to drive on the limit - there's no grip outside the line."
"Better," he says. "We made a small change to the car which has given me a lot more confidence. There were a lot of small holes and ruts in the corners here - we hit one and I thought I had a puncture, but it's okay."
"I was off the road for 15 sec," he explains. "I got stuck in a snow bank and I was lucky to get out. I had a huge bump in the car, it was a big surprise, the car went light and and I went off at the next corner."
Car has heavy front-end damage. There is steam pouring from under the bonnet. "Just before the finish I started to slide, slide, slide and we hit a tree. The water temperature is high - I have to go."
"The road is changing a bit. This morning the guys ahead had an advantage. Now maybe we do."
"Really tricky. Off the line there's absolutely no grip. I'm trying to drive as cleanly as possible."
"An improvement on the first pass. My pace notes were better."
"About 200 metres before the finish I lost the front and went into a bank - I had to reverse. Extremely tricky."
"More difficult to drive than earlier. Okay, there's grip in the lines but off them it's extremely slippery. I saw some gravel in there so I tried to look after my tyres."
"The car is fine now. Not much grip at the rear, but the stage was okay."
"Very tricky in the lines, the snow since the earlier pass has made it very slippery."
"Their lines are so different It's almost undriveable. It's a big fight to keep the car in the lines."
