Comments:
S. Loeb: “For sure it’s very satisfying to win in Finland. I didn’t come here especially to win, I came for points because it’s very difficult to beat the Finnish drivers. It was a great fight with Mikko, a one-two for Citroen and great for the championship.”
M. Hirvonen: “Sebastien was just faster and congratulations to him. Second position in Finland makes it even worse but if you do a perfect rally it is not enough against Sebastien. You have to do more because he is incredible.”
Solberg for Power Stage: “It was cleaning a little behind and I made a small mistake at the start, one in the middle and braked far too early for one corner close to the finish. I tried but it was not enough.”
