Moura hit something near the start of SS3, a few meters after the point we were watching it. It was a fast section, downhill. The problem was that it started to rain heavily, so many cars had problems because they didn’t have wet tyres. They had to do five stages in the morning without any service park between them, which is nonsense. I can easily suppose that he slided too much at a corner.

Maybe some tactics, but in same time Lukyanuk said, they did very successful tire choice for city stages - SS5/6.

UPD - Lukyanuk on Pirrelli, while Tanak - on Michelin.

We were at the stages yesterday and it was nice fight between the first positions.

PERNIA and PEREZ "working" hard on the stages and achieving good results.

SUAREZ absolutelly flat out with the R2 on every stage sections and almost on ANTXUSTEGI's times.

SUZUKI MOTORSPORT trying the brand new bodysheel assemble for their Suzuki Swift S1600 cars.

It was a good day.

We will see who wins!
