| In practice it all started good with grip little bit lower than expected, but still even 2wd had enough traction. However, soon all the teams noticed that the grip changes dramatically with all day changing conditions and that made the practice quite interesting. As lap times were sometimes even 1 second slower only because of changed weather! So I tried to learn how does the track change and what to expect in the morning, afternoon and evening. |

| 4wd qualifications were much interesting as 4 drivers were in the mix for overall TQ ⓠMatsukura, Rivkin, Kodeira and me. Even though my XB4´17 was dialed, few of my mistakes meant that I finished overall 4th after qualifications! |
