Ten degrees Celsius, rain and a special stage on parts of the grand prix track. Oliver Solberg did not handle the technical driving - including chicanes and donuts - or the snow, mud and narrow walls.
He was 10.9 seconds slower than the leader on the course.
"My first donut was terrible and the second was okay. It's raining a lot and it was really difficult," says Solberg.
Despite the distance, the 24-year-old remains in the lead, 59.3 seconds ahead of Briton Elfyn Evans.
It's been a great weekend so far and I'm in a good position.
The competition ends on Sunday.
