"I could have tried harder in the dust for sure, but the plan for the weekend is to get points. It would have been so easy to take a wheel off in this stage by just running slightly wide." | ||||||

"I had a half spin, but the car wouldn't restart. The engine would start, but as soon as I released the clutch it would die again. That's the way it is." | ||||||

"Today we made some good steps forward, but in general it's been a disappointing weekend. I am also disappointed in myself for the comments I made after SS1 - they were irrational and unfair. We do this as part of a team and I certainly didn't display that on Thursday afternoon." |
