Daniel Sordo [Citroen Total WRT]: [retired from day 1 in SS1 - suspension - re-started on day 2 under the SupeRally]
"I don't know what happened. I was keeping to the line made by previous competitors through a left-hand corner, but there must have been a rock because the wishbone broke. It's bitterly disappointing. Up to that point, we had found a good pace and our split times were looking good."

“I’m so disappointed with this result. After the test in France, everything felt really good for this event. The C4 is easier to drive than the Xsara I’d used for the last three rallies, so straight away I was more comfortable in the car. David [Senior – my co-driver] and I had a good recce, and we had a plan to be sensible here and try to take a [drivers’ championship] point from this event. That was exactly what I had done this morning – no risks, just driving in the middle of the road. We hadn’t had any moments. We came towards the end of the third stage and I turned into a corner, we touched the bank on the outside with the front-right wheel on full lock and that was the end of that. The TCA had broken. I tried to carry on to try and get out of the stage, but we just couldn’t make it through the next corner. I can’t believe it.
