Driver Quotes<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Elfyn EVANS<\/strong>
\u201cNot fully. It was a push but somehow it is not clicking well. I\u2019m fully surprised [by Ogier\u2019s pace]. It doesn\u2019t seem the rhythm is fully efficient at the moment.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

S\u00e9bastien OGIER<\/strong>
\u201cWe did [attack]. The first pass was a bit on the safe side and we had a bit more of a push when we knew the notes were comfier, still struggling a bit with the balance. When you are pushing you need everything to be perfect we will still try to improve. It has been fun, the conditions were quite ok.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Kalle ROVANPER\u00c4<\/strong>
\u201cObviously when you don\u2019t have the first pass you don\u2019t know all the places so well. I think on the clean and dry and when I knew what was coming I was quite ok. I was quite careful in all the slippy and damp places. It doesn\u2019t make a big difference for us.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Ott T\u00c4NAK<\/strong>
\u201cIt is probably a little bit better but it is still nowhere close.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Thierry NEUVILLE<\/strong>
No interview<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Takamoto KATSUTA<\/strong>
\u201cFor sure I tried but the same as the first pass I didn\u2019t take a risk on this narrow section. I feel quite confident in my car and driving so I don\u2019t need to take risks now. I can take risks later.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Adrien FOURMAUX<\/strong>
\u201cI was just really excited at the end to finish the really tricky part so I think I did a bit of overdriving at the end. It was maybe not the most efficient but I had some good fun. On the tricky part I really tried to optimise and carry the speed but I think we still lose a lot in there but it is ok. It is really demanding.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Sami PAJARI<\/strong>
\u201cAll ok. I\u2019m a little bit surprised by the time we lost. We will try to push a bit more on the next one. It didn\u2019t feel bad I must say. They are pushing but I should be pushing as well.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Gr\u00e9goire MUNSTER<\/strong>
\u201cFor sure but still it is a bit better but we need to find more.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Oliver SOLBERG<\/strong>
\u201cThis morning I was stupid and hooked it in a drainage ditch. I was trying to take a small cut to see if I could gain something and it made me spin. I tried to have a clean good run. I enjoyed myself.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Gus GREENSMITH<\/strong>
\u201cHonestly I couldn\u2019t tell you in a million years why I was that slow. I have no idea, something must be wrong. IT felt much better than before.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Nikolay GRYAZIN<\/strong>
\u201cNo explanation. I tried even more but it is not working.\u201d<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":6,"featured_media":2272,"parent":0,"template":"","cat_news":[2],"tag_news":[],"acf":[],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/rally-japan.jp\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/news\/2270"}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/rally-japan.jp\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/news"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/rally-japan.jp\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/news"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/rally-japan.jp\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/6"}],"version-history":[{"count":3,"href":"https:\/\/rally-japan.jp\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/news\/2270\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":2393,"href":"https:\/\/rally-japan.jp\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/news\/2270\/revisions\/2393"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/rally-japan.jp\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/2272"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/rally-japan.jp\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=2270"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"cat_news","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/rally-japan.jp\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/cat_news?post=2270"},{"taxonomy":"tag_news","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/rally-japan.jp\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tag_news?post=2270"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
