-3 to -4 degrees forecast tonight. All that rain in the area today will freeze on the roads, plus light snow on top. Should be exciting.

Ogier spin on puncture at 4.30 in:

The three hour breaks between loops could surely have been reduced and they wouldnt need these super-early starts ?

There's no corporate people at the SP so why still 3 hours ?

For me the fact you can hear the co-driver means listening to two co-commentators talking as well makes it ALL sound unclear and irritating.

Pure sound is great and you get split-times and other...

Oliver Solberg:
Now we wait and see if the snow comes overnight to cover the 3 stages we tackle tomorrow - I have my fingers crossed !

Fourmaux:
"There may be some snow tomorrow and a lot of things could change."

Wow and Evans is usually good on wet tarmac.

'Welsh' conditions should suit Evans... ;)

Ogier:
"We had a puncture. There are many cuts in the stage. We took no special line, but we knew these tyres were weak for punctures and unfortunately it happened already"

Nice lead for Evans now.

Kalle was off on that muddy cut.

-34s for Evans.

Huge.

Puncture explains it for Seb.

Kalle moving... phew.

Kalle stopped !

Ooof Ogier siding and a spin.

Gonna get really dirty.

Really wet now - yet another test.

Nightmare stage conditions for any driver low on confidence.

Shame no Ott pictures.

Evans quite cautious.

Neuville stsrted well.

Nasty black ice.
