News from P-G Andersson (2nd in JRC after SS13):
"In the morning I think I was a little too careful: I was backing off over many of the crests and I did not want to take any risks in the slippery and wet conditions. On the first stage in particular I really didn't have a good rhythm and I think I lost a bit too much time. In the afternoon things went a lot better and I was able to push harder in the dry. We'll see what happens now, but I'm certainly not planning to take any risks..."

News from Urmo Aava (1st in JRC after SS13):
"This morning was really difficult with all the rain. I took a full wet cut on my tyres that worked really well, as it allowed me to get some heat into the rubber and grip the road well. In the afternoon I broke the roll bar of the car on SS12, which affected the handling quite seriously. Now the gap to P-G is just 39 seconds, which is nothing on an event as tricky as this one. So I still have to push tomorrow, but also I need to drive safely to make sure of finishing."

News from Nobuhiro 'Monster' Tajima, team principal:
"Now it is a very tricky situation as Urmo and P-G both want to win and they are quite close. So they must be careful not to get too excited on the final day and risk going off the road. However, they are both very experienced drivers so I am sure they know exactly what to do. Both of them have driven very well again today, and our cars have once more been reliable − despite the rough and challenging conditions"
