"Today was better than yesterday. I lost 25 seconds because I stalled the car twice (SS 8 and SS9) after a spin in the hairpin and I could not get it started right away. The Pirelli tyres were working better today although at the end of SS9 - Monte Lerno, we lost grip 10 kms before the end.
“For the second pass through the stages we made some changes to the set up and it helped drivability of the car especially exiting corners. We hit a big stone on SS11 and broke left front wheel but luckily the ats worked fine. On the last stage of today we had a small moment because of a loose stone that you could not avoid. I am happy with the result of today, I'll try to keep the same safe pace tomorrow."
