"I just got caught in the braking and couldn't get the car stopped. It was trying to stall and I had to keep my foot on the clutch to stop it from stalling. It's frustrating and very tricky." | ||||||

"I don't know where the window has gone, that's probably from the stage before. In service, we had to change the gearbox. I was struggling and just sent it into a bank. The front was all clogged up [with snow] and we lost power." | ||||||

"That was a really nice stage. Grip levels are really high, so it's impossible not to enjoy that one. It will deteriorate a little bit [on the second pass], but not as much as we saw yesterday." | ||||||

"The last stage felt really nice but the time was rubbish, and the first stage didn't feel so good but the time was okay. In there, it was quite tricky. The grip levels are nice and the sun's out, so it's not bad." | ||||||

"It wasn't so bad. Towards the end the tyres were gone, but the Hyundais are mega fast in a straight line. When you've got 2km straights there's not an awful lot you can do, but that one felt good for me." | ||||||

"The first two rallies were just about getting a consistent start. We had a great run in Monaco and Sweden is my toughest rally, so to walk away with two fifths is a really good start." |
