Countdown to: Rally de Portugal

It’s been a tough weekend in Portugal. Obviously, we had to face the challenge of running first on the road on Friday, sweeping away all the loose gravel, which was difficult. That said, we still struggled for pace and have some work to do before the next gravel rally in Sardinia.

Huge congratulations to my teammates Sébastien Ogier and Vincent Landais on the win, but especially to Seb on his 7th victory in Portugal – an amazing record.

Recce & Shakedown ✔️🏴󠁧󠁢󠁷󠁬󠁳󠁿🇵🇹

Historically it’s not been an easy job to open the road here, but we have to do what we can with it. Tomorrow is a big day – a very long day – but that’s the same for everyone, we will have to get through it the best we can.

A podium finish in Canarias 🍾🇮🇨🥉

Naturally when you aren’t in a position to fight for the win against someone in equal machinery, it never feels great. But in fairness, we have made progress throughout the weekend, the feeling was much better today.
I have to say a huge thank you to the team, they have prepared us an incredible car to fight! What a result it has been for @tgr_wrc this weekend and congratulations to Kalle and Jonne on a brilliant performance!

It was great to see so many Welsh flags out and about too, thank you for all the support! 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁷󠁬󠁳󠁿🏴󠁧󠁢󠁷󠁬󠁳󠁿🏴󠁧󠁢󠁷󠁬󠁳󠁿

We’ll do our best tomorrow to secure the points 👌

Overall it’s been an ok day, we haven’t been happy with the pace we have, but that’s the way things have been this weekend. We’ve made some small improvements but nothing major. It was good to finish the day with a stage win, it was a really special atmosphere in the stadium! 🏀🤩

Saturday morning ✅🇮🇨

It’s been an ok morning out there with no issues, we made some changes to the car overnight which have improved things a little. Everything is working fine, we’ll keep doing the same this afternoon.
We repeat this morning’s loop of stages before finishing the day in Las Palmas with a short blast around the basketball stadium, see you there 🏀👌

Friday Recap 💬🇮🇨🇪🇸

It’s not been a terrible day out there, but at the same time I haven’t been entirely happy either. I am just missing the last bit of confidence to find the extra speed needed to fight with front runners.
We’ll try a few additional tweaks overnight, I don’t expect we will find a lot, but we’ll concentrate on driving as well as we can until the end of the rally, and see what comes 👊

Leaving work on a Friday like 😎☀️

Recce & Shakedown ✅ 🇮🇨 🇪🇸

There are amazing roads on the island, it’s definitely the closest we get to circuit racing on our calendar! The weather is nice, the landscape is also stunning! 😎

The cars are amazing in tarmac trim, much lower and stiffer and more grip, quite the sensation!
I think learning and understanding the tyre again will be key this weekend, and also looking after them too, given how twisty, and potentially hot some of the stages are going to be.
If you want to be fast, you have to use the full width of the road, and if you get that judgement wrong, there’s nowhere to go.

We are looking forward to the ceremonial start tonight! 🙌

Rally Sierra Morena 🇪🇸⛰️

We had the chance to do the rally as a part of our preparation for Rally Islas Canarias, it was a pretty nice rally to do, an amazing atmosphere with some really good stages.
After a few different events, it was great to be back in tarmac mode and get some good mileage. The team will continue to test with the other drivers ahead of the rally and continue the work we have started this last week.

All in all, a good busy week, and we are looking forward to Rally Islas Canarias 🇮🇨💪🏻

Asante Sana. Thank you. Diolch Kenya!🙏🇰🇪

What a challenging weekend it’s been but we managed to stay out of trouble to win our first Safari Rally Kenya on the team’s 100th WRC event! 🙌🏻
I want to say thank you to everyone in Kenya for the warm welcome, it really has been an amazing rally. A huge well done to the team, @tgr_wrc they did a phenomenal job and I’m proud to be a small part of the history of Toyota in this special rally! 🏆
