K. Meeke: "At the last junction I lost maybe 10 seconds. I think it was the right decision (decision to change his time on stage 8), but yesterday was yesterday and today is today..."
M. Ostberg: "Just trying to do what I did yesterday. Was a good stage, I try to push as hard as I can. Obviously it is very slippery in places and it is difficult to know where to push."
T. Neuville: "I went straight on a junction, on the first junction right, I lost 5 or 6 seconds. When I was not sure I take no risk. Still a good run."
S. Ogier: "I am not in a position to take a risk, I took a bit of time to start my day. The first one I prefer to start like that and get the rhythm."
The battle for the second position in the rally between Ostberg and Neuville continue in SS 17  Leustu 1 (9.65 km). Neuville takes the stage with 0.9 seconds advantage to Ostberg.
In the longest day stage SS 18 Ouninpohja 1 (33.01 km) Sebastien Ogier was the fastest man followed by Hirvonen at +2.6 and Neuville at +2.7 seconds.
Thierry Neuville / Nicolas Gilsoul moves to second position overall while Ostberg / Andersson is third at +0.3 seconds by the Neuville.
Sordo (current 7th position): "We lost a little bit on a hairpin, we do reverse. It's ok."
K. Meeke: "My first time in there in 7 years, first time in a world rally car. It is like you are sitting in the front seat of a roller coaster with paddles to control the speed... I always dreamt of Finland in a world rally car and the Citroen have given me the chance."
T. Neuville: "I just hit very slightly the barrier, otherwise good time. Many places I can go faster, when you are not sure, I took it a little bit carefully. I try to save the tyres a little, maybe too much."
In the last stage before the service park SS 19 Painaa 1 (7.49 km) Mads Ostberg again move to second position while Neuville drop to third. Mads wins the stage 3.1 seconds ahead Neuville.
