I knew they would stop before me and I had to push to gain time on them, ... With seven laps to go I went as quickly as I could.

It's been a long time already that we have had not much to lose, we can only gain. So that's what we're aiming for.

It was a bit of a difficult afternoon for us yesterday, because we had to spend some time working on the car following the minor issue with the gearbox, but the team worked really hard to get the car out on track to complete a couple of installation laps, and that set us up for the good running today.

When I did some Nascar races this year I noticed that I was increasingly missing the racing side, to race against each other, because in rallying you really race against the clock.

In rallying every curve, every hill may be different than you thought. That makes it interesting.

We have been unlucky in some races. It is still a good car, very quick. We just need to make sure to get rid of the little problems.
