The dashboard is lit up with warning lights - and a message reads 'rear diff high'. "Nothing to worry about," Latvala says unconvincingly. "The stage was tricky. There is grip in the line but of it it's very slippery." | ||||||

"We are in a good position but the tyres are finished and my brakes are too hot so it was difficult at the end here. It's still a fight [with Tanak] so let's see what happens later with our stage time [when he felt he was held up in Ostberg's dust on SS12 dust]." | ||||||
