Petter 4th when first day in Poland are finished
First day is completed in Poland, and Petter is fourth. Mikko Hirvonen is leading the rally. Sebastien Loeb hit a tree stump 1,2kms into SS4 and had to retire with a damaged front right wheel.
- I am quite happy with the day, the car is working well but I couldn’t go any faster. It’s been absolutely flat out and we have been on the limit several times. Even with a full throttle we are 7-10kms slower than the rest, so fourth is just about what we expected.
Rally Poland continues with 6 more stages tomorrow, first car is on the road from 1014hrs.

Fantastic effort in a low-powered car. 4th is the best you can hope for without problems for others, but its a good result. Keep going!!
