"This stage is not good for us, the road position was okay, but we catch so many small stones and slip a lot, I think the gap between the fastest will be bigger!" | ||||||

"It wasn't easy! On the ruts sometimes, where the car landed in fifth gear, but it's definitely getting harder in places. Really demanding, but we had a lot of fun. Maybe the second will be a bit better because it's more hard, but the third which is sandy, will be like this." | ||||||

"It doesn't change life, we aren't in the pace we want but we have to be humble and improve ourselves to get to the pace of the others. Our minds were shocked as in Italy there were floods in our region. People have lost their lives, families, houses. With our heart, there is solidarity with our people." |
