Two first stages went just in getting used to the car after driving group N. Cars new active diff settings seemed really nice. We fought really hard with Laukkanen in narrow roads. In the morning of second day gab was five seconds. We tried to claw back the deficit, but we slid off cause of a bad note. We lost 1,5 minutes and fell third. I drove good times in the end of the day, which brought me confidence after driving off.
