| "Today was an okay stage but impossible to commit because we have no gravel crew. I backed off in every corner because I could see some dirt on the road. Not very enjoyable." | ||||||

| "I had a spin on this one in a hairpin right. I'm running my set-up a little bit differently on this rally and that makes it easy to spin. But that was the only negative for today." | ||||||
