Mud and puddles in Poland
After thunderstorms during the night, the #rally Poland shakedown quickly turned into a something of a quagmire this morning. #andreasmikkelsen, #craigbreen and #stephanelefebvre took advantage of the session to work on the set-up of their Citroën C3 #wrc in the muddy conditions.
- Whereas recce was held in glorious sunshine, thunderstorms struck overnight, leaving the shakedown road and the stages contested this weekend soaked.
- On his first run, #andreasmikkelsen had a minor electronical problem, which forced him to return to the service park. The Norwegian set off again quickly, but by then the road was already full of holes and ruts following the repeated passes of the cars.
- Throughout the morning, the three Citroën Total Abu Dhabi WRT drivers reviewed the various suspension settings for these tricky new conditions.
- Andreas Mikkelsen set the quickest time of the C3 WRCs on the fourth of his five passes, with a 2:15.2. #stephanelefebvre clocked a 2:16.0, just ahead of #craigbreen, who set a time of 2:16.6.
- This afternoon, the crews will head for the main square in Mikolajki for the ceremonial start. They will then complete a first run on the Mikolajki Arena super special stage, from 7.08pm.
