Well done Petter!!!
I am so sorry for that breaking problem,but we must be positive,as you told us.
You can still fight for the podium,evenmore knowing this rallye is a hard one,and the other drivers will also be struggling tomorow.
Let’s hope you don’t have any mechanical problem,and you can push as hard as this morning.
You’ve fought very hard!!!Well done Petter!!!You deserve a good rest this night.
