Headache music......Quote:

This morning the Skoda's did only two runs on the shakedown, as they used this stage for testing. Kronos drivers did more runs (about 5-6 each) and Meeke was the fastest of the Peugeot drivers. ;)
Now it is time for dinner. :D
This car does normally belong to Peugeot Sport!?Quote:

I spoke to Conrad just before the super special and the first time he drove the car was on the way to the shakedown! not ideal but I'm keen to see how he goes this weekend!

Well, he wasn't used to car on shakedown, he did a lot of runs but not fast at all. Also on superspecial he was rather slow with only 15th time as a result. ;)Quote:

Me neither, but still two hours to go before start, we are going to take breakfast now and then we leave to first stage Feteiras. Let's see who will be fast on the "real" stages. Hoping for big battle. :DQuote:

Weather today is the same as yesterday, cloudy and now without rain.
First cars are just now in first service, Vitor Pascoal had problems to start his car in TC before service.
Most of drivers told, that starting order will be very important, there is a little sand on the gravel here, so for first cars on the road it will be big disadvantage.

Are they starting as per seeded list or from the results on the SSS last night?Quote:

Ah, I thought I had read that they would start in a different order (which I thought was strange!).
Basso slower than Hanninen :s
Rautenbach is nearly losing 1.5 secs per Km over 7.5km.
Am I right in thinking that Basso is not a gravel expert though?
But whatever, the Fabia does seem to be a quick car, hope Juho can keep it ont he island this time :)
Bruno told that stage are very slipery and he begun cautious
No splits?
Loix in trouble.
Loix loses nearly a minute.... a puncture? :(
Loix had a puncture
Puncture for Loix!!
Fast Freddy in SS2 ??? :confused:
OK puncture... :mark:
