"I don't know, it is a bit more slippy. Hopefully the guys behind are not going that fast. I think it is getting more slippery so it is good to be in the front. Craig is doing a good time also. I'm not managing to be on the limit in there - it is tricky."

"It was a huge weekend, it was such a tough fight! Ott was so far ahead and then he had his trouble, and then Jari-Matti was so strong. I didn't think I'd make it in the forests, it was so tough, but asphalt is a surface I like and we managed to secure the victory."
