Comments after SS 2:
Hirvonen: “I slowed down a lot in the end because I was a little worried about tyres. I saw on the splits I was quite well ahead so it was okay.”
Latvala: “I felt quite comfortable but I was a bit afraid of the concrete sections.”
Loeb: “I had a good drive but it was not a perfect stage. I don’t know why.”
Neuville: “I was a little out of line in some places but nothing bad. I am happy with my time and I hope it will continue like this.”
