| Quickest so far, despite a left-rear tyre pushed off the rim. "I was too fast for a corner, I couldn't see the apex because of the sun, missed the braking and hit a bank. We were lucky to get away only with a puncture." | ||||||

| "I tried to do well. I had a broken gearbox earlier and the team fitted a new one in service so I have a new diff in the front and I have to get used to it. I also had a long brake pedal in here." | ||||||

| "The fight tomorrow is going to be hard but it seems like in these tough conditions our car is working well and we hope to benefit. I think we have a good rhythm. How mush will I risk? We will see." | ||||||

| "I think it's fine if we keep this rhythm. Conditions are quite slippery and I think Elfyn's tyres will work well in this. Not a big, big push from me but a good stage with no problems." | ||||||

| "Watching that was the worst time in my life," says Neuville. "He was quicker than me at the first split, but I got it back in the second." | ||||||
| "I gave it everything. I didn't have the best tyres left because I was pushing on the two before. Even if we don't win we have done our best." | ||||||
