In Summary
- Kenyan ace glad to be through with the first four stages without problems
Charles Firmenich was pleased with his steady performance.
“Since they softened the suspension on Monday and dropped the tyre pressures, the car is much nicer to drive and I really enjoy it. I don’t try too hard and try to be kind to the car so it is kind to me.”
However, for Eric Comas, the team boss and driver of the second car it was not so good.
“My car was finished last and was flown out so it has all the latest transmission pieces. My car has some old parts. We broke three drive shafts testing in France and now we have broken another one now in the section.”
Comas eventually got his car out of the section and the Comas Racing mechanics hope to have it ready and fit for the morning.
