Suzuki chief Nobuhiro Tajima wants to see Toni Gardemeister and Per-Gunnar Andersson both in the points on the Rally of Turkey.

"Hopefully the conditions should be a bit better this year. In terms of the car, we have definitely seen an improvement in the reliability recently - and our aim is to continue in this way for the rest of the season."

P-G Andersson was also happy with the team's performance in the extreme conditions in Greece. He has competed in Turkey three times – once more than Gardemeister – and while he has bittersweet memories, he won the JWRC class in 2005 and did it again in 2006, until he was disqualified for a trivial rule infringement, he is looking forward to it.

"We're definitely on the right road, and I'm want another good result in Turkey. Because the conditions are not as bad as the Acropolis, I think we can definitely aim to score some driver points. If the car is as reliable as it was in Greece, I see no reason why that shouldn't be possible. Turkey is a rally that I like a lot, so I think we can push a bit," he added.
