Thierry Neuville – Nicolas Gilsoul (Hyundai), winner
“We had an incredible feeling the last couple of days and we were able to catch back the time. We have been chasing this win for a while but we showed our performance this weekend and it’s a great way to start the season.”

Sébastien Ogier – Julien Ingrassia (Toyota), 2ème
“I think we can be happy with the start of the season and starting with a podium with the new team is very good. There is some way to go to extract all of the potential from this car but I really enjoyed it.”

Elfyn Evans – Scott Martin (Toyota), 3ème
“We were happy until last night – I can’t say I have been happy today. It never really clicked really and I’m not sure of the reason. There’s some work to do but overall a positive weekend.”
