Countdown to: Rally de Portugal

Thursday thoughts in Portugal 🇵🇹 💭

It’s been an ok start to the rally. We didn’t have the best feeling in the first stage, but the conditions weren’t as bad as we expected them to be.
The next stages were clean for us, although the later runners seemed to have a better run through there.

All in all, it’s not been a bad start, but it’s still very early days in this rally and there’s a long way to go!

Let’s see what tomorrow brings 💪🏼

🇵🇹 Ready to go on the gravel of Portugal!

The stages are mostly familiar, with a few reversed and some new sections mixed in. It’s been a long recce with plenty of kilometres already completed, but all ok so far!

The weather could be unsettled over the weekend, but exactly what that means, and where - we’ll have to wait and see. 🌦️

We’ve got a bit of experience opening the road on gravel events now. It’ll be tough if conditions stay as expected, but we’ll keep pushing and do the best we can 💪🏼

P2 in Canarias 🙌🏼🇮🇨

In the end, I’m pretty happy with how the weekend turned out, with second place and maximum Sunday points.

I’m disappointed with our slow start on Friday, as that was quite damaging in terms of any chance we had to fight for the overall position in the rally. But things got better as the weekend went on, and the pace showed that.
It was a shame for @oliversolberg01 after his strong performance this weekend.

Well done to @sebogier and @vinzzlandais on the win, and to the team @tgr_wrc on another fantastic result 🏆

A better Saturday 👊🏼📈

Things have definitely moved in the right direction today. With a few stage wins, we’ve been closer, but we’ve still lost some time in places to Seb and Oliver.

The aim is to do the best we can tomorrow and see if we can fight with the two guys at the front. We’ll be trying our best.

It’s a demanding Sunday ahead, with plenty of kilometres, so you really have to earn your points tomorrow 💪🏼

Saturday’s office 😎🇮🇨
Flat out on the Canarian tarmac 👌🏼

#EE33 #RallyIslasCanarias #ToyotaGAZOORacing

Two Out of Three Ain’t Bad 😅🙌🏼

2 stage wins this morning, a good start to Saturday 👊🏻🇮🇨

We’ll keep trying this afternoon!

#EE33 #RallyIslasCanarias #ToyotaGAZOORacing

More to find after Friday in Canarias 🇮🇨

Overall, it hasn’t been the perfect day and we wanted a bit more from it. Seb and Oliver have had the edge, so we’ll be looking to make some improvements for tomorrow.
There’s another mixed day ahead, some stages we know well, others less so - but we’ll keep working and keep trying.

Morning loop done 🇮🇨☀️

It’s been an ok morning - shorter than expected with the cancellation of stage three.

Maybe not the best rhythm to start the day, and then on the long one we struggled a bit with the car balance, like everyone else, but we got through it clean.
A few small improvements to try for this afternoon’s loop 🔁🇪🇸

Game on in Gran Canaria ⚽️🙌🏼

A different kind of match at the stadium last night, a great way to kick off Rally Islas Canarias 🇮🇨🇪🇸

#EE33 #RallyIslasCanarias #ToyotaGAZOORacing

Hola, Gran Canaria 👋🏼🇮🇨🌴

This weekend will be a different challenge to the last tarmac rally in Croatia — much more circuit-style, with very smooth roads and cleaner stages, without so much cutting.
The margins are very small here, so every little detail matters, and the weather can still be a little unpredictable, so we always have to be prepared for that.

Looking forward to getting started tonight at the Gran Canaria Stadium ⚽

#EE33 #RallyIslasCanarias #ToyotaGAZOORacing

A tough weekend for us 🇭🇷
It wasn’t the weekend we’d hoped for, and sometimes these things happen. We weren’t quite fast enough today either, so of course we are disappointed.

But, we have another opportunity in less than two weeks, and we have to bounce back stronger 👊🏼

Congrats to our teammates @takamotokatsuta and @aaronjohnston_2 on their win, and to the whole team on a strong result @tgr_wrc 🏆

#EE33 #CroatiaRally #ToyotaGAZOORacing

All eyes on Super Sunday 👊🏼

It was a tricky day with difficult conditions, a lot of cutting and plenty of pollution throughout. With cleaner stages expected tomorrow, it wasn’t the ideal preparation, but I’m happy to be here at the end of the day.

The focus now is on tomorrow, to secure some points and drive as well as we can.
