"It was good. The more I get in the car, the more I am getting used to it. The car feels great - it really is something special. There is still more I need to get out of the car and I am working on it as we go." | ||||||

It's not how we wanted the morning to go but thankfully we made the repairs so we can carry on to do Panzerplatte this afternoon - that's good. | ||||||

As soon as we came into it I couldn't get the car stopped on the first big braking point. That knocked the confidence, I really didn't how slippery it was going to be. | ||||||

"It was okay. I'm struggling with the car a little bit - usually it is a stage I live but I was just not confident in some of the sections." | ||||||

Everything seems a bit better but there's still a long way to go. If I go too fast, just pull the handbrake and pop out the other side. | ||||||

It wasn't easy at all but we had such a bad opening pass that it was like doing a first pass once again. There's still a long way to go. | ||||||

"They are good fun. It was really dirty in there on the edge of the road - even when I was there, the gravel notes had to be changed so much. That is going to change a lot for the second pass." | ||||||

A bit mad! It's been brilliant and I have enjoyed every minute of it - the car is just incredible to drive. A massive thank you to M-Sport and Ford Performance for all of the opportunities that they have given me - it's been awesome. |
