– This is one of the most beautiful and the most difficult days of my career. Beautiful because we took second place in a world championship round, in Rally Italia Sardegna. This is our best result to date – and also our second podium finish this year. Difficult because this Sunday was really tough mentally. We had to withstand very strong pressure, maintain sufficient pace and avoid losing positions. In fact we managed to move up in the standings. I would like to thank our rivals for fantastic fight in this difficult rally. Many thanks also to the whole team, everybody did a great job. The LOTOS Rally Team have performed brilliantly and I am very grateful for that
