I don't mind the walking from car to stage part even if it's long as long as I'm there for stage start time.
Would be really excited if I could relax knowing I would definitely get parked up!
Read a few comments from SD that all the Hyundai's were quite ragged...

Craig Breen and Scott Martin completed four run at the start of the morning. They set the ninth fastest time with a 2:01.6.
After two runs, Kris Meeke and Paul Nagle had to return to service in order to change the set-up of their Citroën C3 WRC. They went back out to complete their mandatory third run, before changing co-driver. BBC journalist Stuart Pollitt replaced Paul Nagle alongside Kris Meeke to experience the thrills and spills provided by the new generation World Rally Championship cars.
On his return to the event, Khalid Al Qassimi completed five passes during the morning.
The rally is due to get underway this evening. Following the ceremonial start, the crews will contest SS1 on the Tir Prince Raceway, near Conwy. The first car will start the stage at 7pm.

QUOTE, UNQUOTE
Craig Breen: "I had a very good feeling in the car on the first run. After that, the surface became really polished and slippery, and it was increasingly difficult to stay on the road. We tried some different things and I think we have a good set-up now, both for the first and the second passes on the stages. I feel ready. I know these roads pretty well and I just hope that the weather isn't going to be so bad. We need there to be some humidity, because the more cars complete the stages, the harder it is for those behind."
Kris Meeke: "I wasn't able to prepare this morning as I would have liked. Unfortunately, the set-up defined for the morning wasn't ideal for the road conditions and so I had to come back to service to make some changes. However, by the time we got back out to the stage, the road conditions had changed again and I couldn't improve my time. I'm just looking forward to the start now."

Although it does look like it will be tight at the top this weekend (as long as the top 5-6 will remain on the road).Quote:

Decided to go to Myherin tomorrow - will be a stiff walk up the Pikes Peak car park but hopefully worth it at the top, especially as it's forecast dry and sunny. Just got the feeling that Hafren car parks will really fill up overnight and that narrow access road isn't the best place to be caught in a long queue...
Rovanpera with a third time at the moment in WRC2 class.
Also fastest Fiesta R5Quote:
