ORB statements Friday night
Mads Ostberg-Torstein Eriksen (Citroen C3 Rally2): The sprint in the dark was very interesting and difficult. It was very slippery, foggy and humid in many places. But I'm very happy that we finished this stage and are leading! It was a good start for us!
Grzegorz Gryzb-Kamil Kozdron (Skoda Fabia Rally2 EVO): It was incredible, as fast as Armageddon! I didn't expect it to slide so much! Two years ago, when we were here, it only rained at night. I remembered that it was slippery, but how, so much! I made a lot of mistakes, I went slowly and carefully. I also told my navigator that we just have to make it and we'll see what we do tomorrow. However, I am happy that our time was not so bad and we are fighting for the win.
Krisztián András-Kertész Hadik (Ford Fiesta R5 MK II): The stage was interesting, the water evaporated in one or two places, the speedway was foggy, we could not always see perfectly. We tried to go safely, but quickly, and we succeeded here and there.
Attila Miklós-Nagy Csomós (Skoda Fabia R5): Today's fast race was clearly about survival. We hesitated between slicks and wet tires, we made the right decision to put on the wet ones. We didn't expect it to be so dirty, the road played tricks on us in one or two places. We are 4-5 seconds away from the start, nothing has been decided yet, tomorrow will be a long day. We hope that the track will dry out and that there will be no more rain!
Turán Frigyes-Bagaméri László (Volkswagen Polo R5): I can't see very well with this light, I didn't see the application and we slipped. We hit the rear, the exhaust broke off and then we were afraid that the car would catch fire, the bumper melted a little. After that, we could no longer drive at the pace we wanted, we lost at least twenty seconds compared to the others.
Róbert Bútor-Tagai Róbert (Citroen C3 WRC): This was a lot for us! We don't have rain tires for this race, we had to go with intermediates. It rained, and I didn't even know where I was afterwards! We had to go very slowly and still got three "gifts". I don't regret this fast at all, that was enough!
