Other info
The initial section is all about the vineyards above the Mosel river. It is littered with hairpins, both downhill and uphill, and tricky junctions among the grapes. After exiting the vines, there is a 1.3km blast along a main road to the village of Rivenich, which drivers leave across open fields. The stage becomes more open before ending with another string of hairpins.

Info
"We try to survive. We have a problem with the clutch, there's nothing there now. I hope we can complete the loop."
"In the end I was very careful, it was muddy."
"No problems but drier than expected."
"Fantastic. Not easy but a lot of experience. So slippery, a little bit wet, a little bit dry, but really nice."
"We are pushing hard and taking risks but we have to. There is so much gravel on the roads here and I'm trying to limit the lime loss. I like this stage. The car is really, really nice."
I felt a bit uncomfortable with the tyre choices. Humid in parts, wet under the trees. Difficult to find a rhythm."
"Wrong tyres and a surprise in one braking point where we went into the vines. The engine stalled and we lost a lot of time."
His car sporting damage to the roof vent, left-hand front splitter and rear spoiler. "Quite soon after the start under braking I went wide into the vines and hit a wooden post. I have to go and check..."
He completes with damage to his front-right wing. "Might have been just a hay bale, nothing major. There is no right choice for tyres here. In parts softs would be better, in others hards."
"I played a gamble on two hards and two softs. It rained since the gravel crew went through, so I didnlt know what to expect. Each corner was like flipping a coin. All softs would have been better I think."
"It was okay, a bit of a moment in one place but otherwise okay. Not a lot of grip in the dry. Early on I worked on getting heat in the tyres."
"Difficult to control the car in the slippery sections."
"That's nothing too serious. It was surprisingly dry and I was struggling on the soft tyres, the car felt soft under braking."
"Very tricky because we expected wet and it was mostly dry. Difficult."
"More dry than expected. My tyre choice was not fantastic but it's not too aggressive. I'm not unhappy with my choices."
"I went off 1km from the start. The road was dry then suddenly wet section under braking and I went into the vines and lost the front (splitter) lip. Now I have no down force at all. It makes it very tricky."
