4. Jarkko Nikara / Petri Nikara - Citroen DS3
The car feels much better, we made lots of changes but Keith is on a charge.

5. Elfyn Evans / Andrew Edwards - Ford Fiesta R2
Much better, a cleaner run than first. We made no changes in service

1. Keith Cronin / Marshall Clarke - Citroen DS3 R3T
A puncture two miles from the end. We didn't loose too much time.

12. Alastair Fisher / Daniel Barritt - Ford Fiesta R2
The brakes seized up in there. They have freed up again now, we will just have to see how we go.

2. Mark Donnelly / Dai Roberts - Renault Clio R3
I know I keep going on about it, but I'm still picking up confidence! Our aim is to be on the pace later in the day.

11. Jussi Kumpumaki / Marko Salminen - Ford Fiesta R2
Happy, that felt ok.

9. Jukka Korhonen / Mikael Korhonen - Skoda Fabia R2
We had two big moments but it's all fun. On a compromised setup now, it's going ok.

14. Peter Taylor / Andrew Roughead - Renault Clio R3T
Much better than first time around, I can hear the navigator now!

3. Tom Cave / Craig Parry - Citroen DS3
Much happier, times are improving and getting back on the pace.
