It will be interesting to see yet another circuit driver giving rallying a go. What do you think, will he be able to compete for points, or just drive around for fun?

Bryan Bouffier will do the gravel crew for Nasser Al-Attiyah
I think he can do good in a Rally, he has competing with Porshe before, I'm not sure for the Mini though :)Quote:

He is very fast in his Porsche but it will be his first time in a WRC so it will take some time before he sets good times. He said that his goal for this rally was to bring the car back and consistently improve his time throughout the weekend. If there is some incidents with the "usual" WRC competitors, he can easily get in the point scoring positions i believeQuote:

well, maybe. If not for the pacenotes....
