The forests reminded of those in Finland, lots of conifers. Hard surfaces on stages but perhaps even more loose gravel than in Finland. Chile was a mixture of Finland, Wales and even Australia. After Argentina I felt really good which made us fly at the beginning of this new race. We took the fastest time right away. The stages were pretty slippery due to last weeks\u2019 rainy weathers. The recc\u00e9 was foggy and difficult. Our notes were good though and our Friday went well. There was only one spin but we were third after Friday. I tried to maintain my position on Saturday but Sebastien Loeb started to push and I could not find enough pace. The grip was better and the roads were cleaner but I just could not quite get it going. I drove too aggressively, the tires wore down&nbsp; and finally there was some fog making the road wet and spoiling the visibility. I tried to push in those bad conditions. Unfortunately, I had not seen a rock during the recc\u00e9 and we cut and hit it. It broke the suspension and we had to retire after being third. A new start on Sunday aiming for points on power stage. We got three extra points there but the rest of the rally otherwise was just more or less driving through.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-gallery has-nested-images columns-default is-cropped wp-block-gallery-1 is-layout-flex wp-block-gallery-is-layout-flex\">\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img decoding=\"async\" width=\"240\" height=\"160\" data-id=\"13378\" src=\"https:\/\/latvalamotorsport.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/06\/thumbs_AV201906175.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-13378\"\/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img decoding=\"async\" width=\"240\" height=\"160\" data-id=\"13380\" src=\"https:\/\/latvalamotorsport.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/06\/thumbs_AV587.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-13380\"\/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img decoding=\"async\" width=\"240\" height=\"160\" data-id=\"13382\" src=\"https:\/\/latvalamotorsport.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/06\/thumbs_AV586.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-13382\"\/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"240\" height=\"160\" data-id=\"13384\" src=\"https:\/\/latvalamotorsport.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/06\/thumbs_AV201906432.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-13384\"\/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"240\" height=\"160\" data-id=\"13386\" src=\"https:\/\/latvalamotorsport.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/06\/thumbs_AV201906430.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-13386\"\/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"240\" height=\"160\" data-id=\"13388\" src=\"https:\/\/latvalamotorsport.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/06\/thumbs_AV201906322.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-13388\"\/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"240\" height=\"160\" data-id=\"13390\" src=\"https:\/\/latvalamotorsport.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/06\/thumbs_AV201906321.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-13390\"\/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"240\" height=\"160\" data-id=\"13392\" src=\"https:\/\/latvalamotorsport.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/06\/thumbs_AV201906189.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-13392\"\/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"240\" height=\"160\" data-id=\"13394\" src=\"https:\/\/latvalamotorsport.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/06\/thumbs_AV201906293.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-13394\"\/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"240\" height=\"160\" data-id=\"13396\" src=\"https:\/\/latvalamotorsport.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/06\/thumbs_AV201906294.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-13396\"\/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"240\" height=\"160\" data-id=\"13398\" src=\"https:\/\/latvalamotorsport.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/06\/thumbs_AV201906295.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-13398\"\/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"240\" height=\"160\" data-id=\"13400\" src=\"https:\/\/latvalamotorsport.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/06\/thumbs_AV201906102.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-13400\"\/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"240\" height=\"160\" data-id=\"13402\" src=\"https:\/\/latvalamotorsport.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/06\/thumbs_AV201906103.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-13402\"\/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"240\" height=\"160\" data-id=\"13404\" src=\"https:\/\/latvalamotorsport.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/06\/thumbs_AV201906133.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-13404\"\/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"240\" height=\"160\" data-id=\"13406\" src=\"https:\/\/latvalamotorsport.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/06\/thumbs_AV201906174.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-13406\"\/><\/figure>\n<\/figure>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>This race was driven in Concepti\u00f3n some 500 kilometres north of Santiago.
