A gearbox problem on Friday morning’s opening loop of gravel stages ruled Evans’ Toyota Yaris WRC out of the frame for a win. Asked for specifics on the gearbox issue aboard his Yaris, Evans said: “I think it was more to do with the electrical side rather than something mechanical in the transmission. There was nothing we could have done between the stages.’’
由于礼拜五早上的变速箱问题,埃文斯早早得在希腊的砂石赛道上退出了该站的争夺。在被问及变速箱问题细节时,埃文斯表示:“我觉得这更像是电子系统抽了疯,而不是机械部件损坏,我们正在赛段中比到一半,对比无能为力。”
“This was not our weekend but these things happen in rallying and it’s been very rare at this team to have an issue like we had on Friday. The feeling in the car was generally quite good," said Evans.
“这周不属于我们,这类事故在拉力赛中发生并不奇怪。只是在我们车队里,这就比较罕见了,尤其还是礼拜五比赛刚开始的时候。不过车子总体上的感觉还是不错的。”埃文斯补充道。

周五的变速箱问题早早得将埃文斯排除在分站争夺外
He now trails Ogier, who finished the Acropolis third, by 44 points with three rallies and 90 points on offer between now and the end of the year.
和拿下希腊站季军的奥吉尔相比,英国人目前落后榜首的法国人44分,而距离赛季结束一共也只有90分供埃文斯争取了。
“It’s fair to say the championship is more or less decided now. But I’m not giving up – we’ll keep giving it everything we’ve got. The approach to the rallies won’t change, but it was always a long shot and now it’s much longer."
“平心而论,今年的争冠形式多多少少就这样订了。但我不会放弃,依然会倾尽全力。我们每站的策略和心态都不会改变,只不过,我们需要从长计议,而目标正在渐行渐远。”
