Other info
The action begins in the heart of Saarbrücken, capital and largest city of the state of Saarland. Immediately after the opening ceremony, crews will tackle a 2.05km street circuit. Two loops of roads which cross the River Saar via the Wilhelm-Heinrich Bridge and use the slip road system above the city motorway should provide a spectacular start to the rally.

Info
"I had no good feeling in the stage after what I saw with Meeke. I took it quite steady. It's my first time starting a rally leading the championship. I thought we did quite well."
"The real fight starts tomorrow but tonight we've seen that it can be tricky. You can't win the rally tonight but you can lose it."
"If I have a good feeling in the car I will enjoy it and I'm sure the times will come. I expect some very difficult conditions this weekend. Let's see."
"What happened to Kris was really unfortunate. This sort of city stage is good, but why did they use the concrete barriers and not plastic? That's not the way to do it. For me not such a bad stage."
He completes with about a third of the rim missing. "I know what I can touch," he jokes.
"We went as hard as we could. We have a new hard tyre here, which is unknown territory. Lets see what we can do with it."
"I'm gutted for Paul and Kris. It's so easy to make a mistake in here. I touched a barrier on the first corner. It's going to be a long weekend. We'll go a hard as we can."
"The hairpins are very tight. I touched a bale on the inside but no worries. It's tricky in these wider cars."
"Now way. No chance. I need more experience on Tarmac and of this car. I'm just not confident enough to push. I need to try to be clever."
"Let's see where our times are tomorrow."
"I hope we can have a good result. The car feels really nice on Tarmac, really enjoyable. I hope for nicer weather than the rain that is forecast."
The right-hand front steering seems to be broken. He can't get the C3 around the tight stage. He has stopped.
"It feels really great to be be back in a WRC car but I have to say my feeling for the car is not so easy. Tomorrow we will start the race."
"I don't think about it. I just try to stay concentrated. The conditions can be difficult. I'm happy to be here."
"A lot of challenges here - quite different from Finland!"
"I'm really happy to be able to open this stage. So many people here. I think my soft tyres were done after one and a half laps."
