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

Elfyn EVANS<\/strong>
\u201cI wasn\u2019t so comfortable with the car there in the beginning, it was quite tail happy. After it wasn\u2019t so bad but it does feel efficient enough at the moment. Taka has been very fast here in the past so it is not a surprise.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

S\u00e9bastien OGIER<\/strong>
\u201cIt is ok. I always feel more comfortable to push on second pass. So far so good. Clearly Taka has been winning g many stages here before and we know he can fight for the win. It is nice to fight with him.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Kalle ROVANPER\u00c4<\/strong>
\u201cIt was ok. On the high speed part we have to use some settings that are not really optimal for the driving. It didn\u2019t really feel so good on the high speed. Overall no risk and I tried to get back on the pace, but it is not so easy in this condition. I\u2019m not good in maths so I don\u2019t know [when asked if he has calculated what is possible for his recovery drive]<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Ott T\u00c4NAK<\/strong>
\u201cQuite good. That is all we can do.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Thierry NEUVILLE<\/strong>
\u201cOne step in the right direction now but a small one. It is difficult, not the confidence or the grip or the good balance. We are really trying and obviously changing the set up every stage makes it difficult. We have to try and see if we can find anything.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Takamoto KATSUTA<\/strong>
\u201cNot good. This is what I was a bit worried about with lower trip there is no grip. It is strange but it was not good. We need to finish the day for sure.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Adrien FOURMAUX<\/strong>
\u201cI really tried my best. I was struggling on the downhill section. It is already better than this morning. We have gone in the right direction so we have improved. I just want to stay in contact with Sami and the others just in case something happens.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Sami PAJARI<\/strong>
\u201cIt was not so different compared to the morning in terms of cutting there is a bit more pollution but in general there is better grip toward the end. I tried to maximise. It was not perfect but pretty good.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Gr\u00e9goire MUNSTER<\/strong>
\u201cNot really feeling any improvement. I tried to give it a proper go in this one because there were fewer corners but the time is still not there. It is just the understeer it doesn\u2019t turn. It is frustrating as I know everyone is trying but it is not paying off.\u201d<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":6,"featured_media":2280,"parent":0,"template":"","cat_news":[2],"tag_news":[],"acf":[],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/rally-japan.jp\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/news\/2278"}],"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":4,"href":"https:\/\/rally-japan.jp\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/news\/2278\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":2392,"href":"https:\/\/rally-japan.jp\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/news\/2278\/revisions\/2392"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/rally-japan.jp\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/2280"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/rally-japan.jp\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=2278"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"cat_news","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/rally-japan.jp\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/cat_news?post=2278"},{"taxonomy":"tag_news","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/rally-japan.jp\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tag_news?post=2278"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
