Delecour: We kicked out the windscreen.
Francois Delecour looked to have the ideal starting position this morning in eighth but his hopes were ruined when he rolled 12km from the start of the first test. The Frenchman now sits in 12th heading into the final day.
"I was driving quite steadily, too steadily, and I just lost concentration," said the 39-year-old Frenchman. "The car slid wide and we rolled. It ended on its roof and we had to kick out the windscreen to get out of the car. It took us a long time to get the car back on its wheels. It was a stupid mistake."

He dropped over four minutes in the accident, sliding to 17th, and cut his elbow but a string of determined performances enabled him to climb back up the order on stages he had never driven before. "I think we can make the top 10 but we have no chance of a points finish," added Delecour.
