Comments after SS 17:
Latvala: "Let's see at the end of the day how much we lost here. At the moment it's a good feeling, I'm quite confident."
Hirvonen: "I know my tyres are completely shattered now, I don't have any studs left."
Ostberg: "I had some electrical problems with the car in the stage - it went into launch mode. It was just cutting the engine all the time. I pulled everything and then it went off after a few hundred metres, but we lost a lot from this. I suffered a lot on the last stage to have proper tyres for this stage and then this happens. It's just a shame. It was a nightmare really."
Loeb: "I got a puncture and I continued to drive like that and it went completely off. I hit a stone on the road, but it was on the line so I couldn't do anything. What can I do?"
Novikov: "I am pushing to the maximum, I am doing everything that I can. We are really pushing a lot.”

In the last day of Rally Sweden there are 6 stages as the first start at 8:34 local time.
