The Citroën drivers set the fastest times in the three stages actually run.

At service, the dampers and the front brake discs were changed on the two cars.

K. Meeke, deuxième :
"Great ! Happy ! Happy to be here as the last stage was difficult. We spun there and hit something. We lost around 15 or 20 seconds but we had to keep the pace and the concentration. We were second 13,3 s behind the leader before that stage and still 13,3 s behind the leader at the end of the leg. We won't change anything tomorrow in our rhythm This second place and eight points would really make me satisfied. I would have signed for such a result before the start. What's also very good is to know the car is that efficient and that we will still have a lot of evolutions coming ..."

D. Sordo, sixth :
" It was a weird day : one stage in the morning and the second one run after two neutralisations late in the afternoon. I'm very, very happy we won the last stage of the day, where the end was extremely slippery. The team is also very motivated even if we had some problems at the start yesterday. We are lying in sixth tonight with a perfect car. We'll see what we can do tomorrow."
