Ogier: Not so bad, but not perfect, two mistakes. Some places was even more slippy than this morning. That's how it is and now we have to produce in Sardinia.
Latvala:  Incredible. It feels amazing. It has's been a tough Greece for me and its so nice to win. It was ten years ago I drive my first Acropolis… and its taken this long to win.
Sordo: Great weekend because of all the problems we had before. We are very happy.
Neuville:  It was a pretty good weekend for us, we had a pretty good strategy. The last one was very tricky for me, I thought we had a puncture so I slowed down the last 5 kms. then I realize that everything was ok.
