Optic Tunisia: What they said after Stage 1 (Corsica).
| |
|
Pedro Grancha (Portugal/Mitsubishi Pajero): "It’s just like Portugal. It is the first time that I lead an international rally such as the Optic 2000 Tunisia, but I have to be realist and remember that the real stuff starts on Monday in Tunisia."
Jean-Louis Schlesser (France/Schlesser Ford): "I didn’t think that we would do as well as what we did. It was a real feast for the eyes, the countryside was beautiful and the crowds at the roadside just maximised the pleasure."
Christian Lavieille (France/Nissan Navara Proto): "We didn’t go flat-out because we’re only just getting to know the car, this isn’t the Corsican Rally and it’s tomorrow and Tuesday that will really count."
David Casteu (France/ KTM Gauloises): "I went flat out this morning. My suspension left me speechless. I was impressed on the Dakar but this. It felt like the bike just floated over the broken tracks."
Marc Coma (Spain/ KTM Repsol): It was beautiful, after my accident on the Dakar I decided to take it easy without risks. Monday in Africa I’ll be starting behind David and over 25km, I don’t think that I’ll shorten the lead by much."
Jose Manuel Pellicer (Spain/ KTM): I don’t like this style of technical terrain. I decided not to risk it, for me the real race starts in Tunisia on Monday."
