Other info
Terra Alta is the longest stage of the rally. A 3km section at the start, which was new last year, leads into Vilalba del Arcs, before it heads away through a well-known zig-zag which offers great views of the village and its bell tower in the background. It is mostly gravel but drivers face five surface changes, including an incredibly twisty and undulating 6km asphalt section in the middle and a tight asphalt hairpin near the finish on tyres worn by the gravel.

Info
puncture
"A good day for us. No problems. These long stages are very nice. A long day though, hard to manage the car around the big stones."
"We lost the power steering in the last stage. I think I need to go to the gym because it's hard to drive like this."
"It was much better this time because we got a five minute gap to Serderidis ahead and I didn't need to stop on the stage because of the dust."
"The car is full of dust, I struggled to see, and the heater is stuck on. It's like 100 degrees in here. When it's like this I cannot say focused. Stupid things are destroying our rally for the moment."
"Better. You have to do these stages many times before you understand them."
"A much better run this time on the hard tyres. Okay, I'm a bit frustrated about the mistake in the hairpin earlier but I'm in a good position overnight, so I'm happy."
"I thought I had a puncture, or perhaps a broken damper, I think something happened with the suspension. Still, we managed and we are here. I'm happy with my day, getting used to the car and fighting back at the top."
"Not so good in the morning. A bit too careful in the rough sections, I could have pushed more."
"At least we have brakes now but the suspension is not good enough - it's too nervous."
"I can't take anything from this. It was so, so difficult - even before the first split."
"I tried my best but it's very, very difficult. Not a lot of traction."
"This afternoon has been difficult. I felt some impact in this stage and lost the brakes in the Tarmac section. A tricky second loop today."
"It was not easy on the Tarmac and I have two spares as well," he says. "Also I was changing my diff settings in the stage and I got a bit confused with the diff map."
"Let's see how the times look at the end, but whatever happens I can be happy with my day. I expected to lose more today from my position first on the road. My competitors today were Ott and Thierry and I'm happy with what I have done."
