Craig Breen will be taking part in eight ERC events. He will also, along with other drivers, be tasked with leading the intensive test programme for the 208 Type R5, starting next week on gravel.
The 2012 SWRC Champion has long been loyal to Peugeot, since he made a significant contribution to the development of the 208 R2, in testing and competition, and he is already very familiar with the 207 Super 2000, having driven it on many an occasion in the IRC. The young Irishman now acquires the status of Peugeot Sport factory driver. Craig will be part of the Saintéloc team, competing in the colours of Peugeot Sport, Total, Michelin and Sparco.
Craig Breen: "This is incredible and beyond my dreams. I am really excited to work with a manufacturer like Peugeot Sport, I think of it since I was a young boy. To arrive here in front of a nice season is a good position to be in. My objective is to show good speed and challenge for some victories on a regular basis. For the testing program, I will give the best I can to support the development of the 208 Type R5”.
Breen's provisional calendar:
ˇ Rally Liepaja-Ventspils (Latvia) (G & S), 1-3 February.
ˇ Rallye Açores (G), 25-28 April.
ˇ Tour de Corse (T), 16-18 May.
ˇ Belgium Ypres Westhoek Rally (T), 27-29 June.
ˇ Rally San Marino (G), 11-14 July.
ˇ Rally Poland (G), 26-29 September.
ˇ Rallye Sanremo (T) 10 -12 October.
ˇ International Rallye du Valais (T), 7-9 November.
br21, pucky: Dzienkuje bardzo, danke sehr :)
Once again the weather might turn the rally to something that is not expected (It was nice winter weather for the whole month and it changes just for the rally weekend). Looks like ERC is not going to have a snow rally, but bit more like gravel, mud and ice rally. Nearly all models are shoing up to +5 degrees+rain for Wednesday, up to +3 degrees and rain for Thursday, +2 degrees for Friday and little rain, and +1..+2 degrees and wet snow for Saturday. Fortunately there was between -10.. and -20 degrees for quite a long period and therefore the road surface should last.But what tyres are they going to use? I am sure that ice layer between the forests is going to last for those + degrees, but I expect most of the snow to dissapear. I hope the weather model is overestimating + degrees, it usually does when the sea is already very cold and big part of it is frozen.
