1. leg	Time	Pos.	km/h s/km	Overall	Pos. after
SS1 EKO Super Special Stage (1.48 km)	1:33.3	3. 3. class RC1 3. WRC	57.1 km/h 0.27 s/km	1:33.3	3. 3. class RC1 3. WRC
SS2 Loutraki 1 (10.37 km)	5:34.4	1. 1. class RC1 1. WRC	111.6 km/h	7:07.7	1. 1. class RC1 1. WRC
"Road position is improving, that's for sure. There are already some lines I really could benefit from. We need to work a bit on the car, without shakedown there's a few small adjustments to do."
SS3 Pissia (16.43 km)	11:19.9	2. 2. class RC1 2. WRC	87.0 km/h 0.19 s/km	18:27.6	1. 1. class RC1 1. WRC
"I was crashing through a lot. I had to take it steady in some of the compression, I could have rolled the car over the front if I wanted so I need to be careful."
SS4 Loutraki 2 (10.37 km)	5:34.3	2. 2. class RC1 2. WRC	111.7 km/h 0.21 s/km	24:01.9	1. 1. class RC1 1. WRC
"It was a good run, but I got kicked out of the line a couple of times due to the ruts. The soft tire is moving a lot, so it was a bit too hard for the soft tire."
SS5 Livadia (21.03 km)	12:57.6	2. 2. class RC1 2. WRC	97.4 km/h 0.28 s/km	36:59.5	1. 1. class RC1 1. WRC
"I don't know, probably the tires," he said, when asked what the secret to the time was. "Tough to make a choice before the stage, in the end I said go all in. What we can take now will be good for tomorrow, but it wasn't a nice stage to be honest."
SS6 Elatia (28.32 km)	18:10.9	4. 4. class RC1 4. WRC	93.5 km/h 0.34 s/km	55:10.4	1. 1. class RC1 1. WRC
2. leg
SS7 Pavliani 1 (24.25 km)	19:58.4	3. 3. class RC1 3. WRC	72.8 km/h 0.49 s/km	1:15:08.8	2. 2. class RC1 2. WRC
"I had a good stage, I don't know. I couldn't do really more to be honest."
SS8 Karoutes 1 (28.49 km)	17:00.5	1. 1. class RC1 1. WRC	100.5 km/h	1:32:09.3	1. 1. class RC1 1. WRC
"I had a good stage but I just was a bit too hard on the tires at the beginning so I lost them towards the end. Now if we have enough tires left for the last one, it was a good loop."
SS9 Eleftherochori 1 (18.02 km)	10:49.1	2. 2. class RC1 2. WRC	99.9 km/h 0.08 s/km	1:42:58.4	1. 1. class RC1 1. WRC
"We had a good stage but it's getting too rough in there. I'm not sure second pass will be possible. Last year second pass was destroyed but this year it's going to be on another level, so we need to be careful about that."
SS10 Pavliani 2 (24.25 km)	29:07.5 [N]	43. 9. class RC1 43. WRC	50.0 km/h 24.74 s/km	2:12:05.9 [SR]	15. 8. class RC1 15. WRC

"It's quite tricky. Obviously I didn't work a lot on the videos and I just drive through. Not much to say to be honest."
SS14 Grammeni 1 (9.00 km)	6:53.0	4. 4. class RC1 4. WRC	78.5 km/h 0.73 s/km	3:23:05.0 [SR]	21. 9. class RC1 21. WRC
"We did a good recce run for the powerstage - it's just for fun it's not really about the points anymore."
SS15 Grammeni 2[Power Stage] (9.00 km)	6:32.9	6. 6. class RC1 6. WRC	82.5 km/h 0.53 s/km	3:29:37.9 [SR]	20. 9. class RC1 20. WRC
"It's cleaning a bit in there, so I don't think it's good enough but for the road position and the tires we have left it was a really good time."
