"Quite okay. I don't really enjoy these stages a lot - I don't like the characteristics of the stage but I tried my best. The soft tyre is moving quite a lot so I just tried to find the right pace to look after the tyre." | ||||||

"I managed the tyres a bit better at the beginning of the stage. Tricky conditions with some ice patches, but the main thing is that we are here." | ||||||

"Pretty clear conditions, nothing special to be honest. We took a bit of a different tyre plan than the others. Let's see how it works on this loop." | ||||||
SS4 Puget-Théniers / Saint-Antonin 1 (19.79 km) | 11:54.7 | 6.

"Pretty okay. At the beginning I didn't have so much grip - I think there was salt on the road or something. The rest of it was quite okay." | ||||||
SS5 Briançonnet / Entrevaux 1 (14.55 km) | 8:32.0 | 2.

|
"It was the first real braking section of the stage. I had less grip than I expected and I just ran a bit wide. It was quite a tricky loop and I think the tyre choice was not perfect." | ||||||

"Quite okay but nothing too special. We will try to be a bit better in this loop now and hopefully have some better times." | ||||||

"It's much easier than the first pass. The line is much cleaner from the salt but for some reason I feel that in this stage it's a bit tricky with the grip in the last section. I was sliding a lot." | ||||||

"It was not a good stage for me, I could have done better. It was clean but it was not the driving that I want to do." | ||||||

"The beginning was quite good but on the middle section it was already quite dirty from the cuts. Not so easy, I was sliding a bit in places." | ||||||

"The morning has been fine. On this stage I overheated the tyres too much at the start of the stage and in the beginning it was really slippy." | ||||||

"I am quite close to the limit. When there is more dirt on the road the car is not so easy to drive, but when it's clean I am fine." | ||||||

"I am not fully happy. I did this stage last year and I was not on the pace, so for sure it was not easy now to step up. It's going to be a long day for the tyres as well. I just tried to keep a good and safe pace." | ||||||
SS16 La Bollène-Vésubie / Col de Turini 2 (15.12 km) | 10:08.9 | 1.

|
"It's definitely a big difference when the road is clean from the salt. I think earlier in the rally we were losing a lot more time with cleaning the road. Now it's a lot more fun." | ||||||
SS17 Lucéram / Lantosque 2 (18.82 km) | 12:23.3 | 3.

"We are also saving the tyres quite a lot and we should have quite a good package for the Power Stage." | ||||||

"It was a good one. I think we can be quite happy with second place. There was much more cleaning than I expected on Thursday and Friday, and it seems when we were in the same conditions as everyone we had the same pace as everyone else." |
