Co-driver: Miikka Anttila

The hard-surface roads in Uusikaupunki are even which makes it hard to get differences in time. On stage one I lost 2, 5 seconds to Sebastian “Basti” Lindholm. I tried harder on the second stage but lost even more. After that I tried to ease my driving up but Basti just kept on increasing his lead. In the service after the fourth stage we changed the transmission which made the car better and we were able to drive the fastest time once, but not even that was enough for us to catch Basti. We did all we could but we finished second, 15, 5 seconds behind the winner.
