I thought the 208 R2 should have started its first official outing at next month's Ulster Rally :confused:
It's absent from current entrylist on Home :mark:

Apparently he(and codriver Gareth Roberts R.I.P.)built relationship with Peugeot-Sport and even took part to the developpment of the car :confused:
Yes, he was there when Neuville tested the 208 too
Guy wilks too at Ulster Rally in a Twingo Evo R2...he will be the reference to match for Elfyn Evans and Craig Breen :cool:
Impressive result for Evans in the Fiesta R2 with 2nd overall in Ulster!
Any times or reactions on the Pug 208 R2?
According to Peugeot-Sport press release, Craig Breen would have been fastest of R2s on 5 occasions during the Ulster Rally...absolutely NO mechanical incidents(reliability 100%) :)
Edit: by end september the 208 will be back to Britain at the BRC Open Days to be tested by customers interested in, and then in october Sanremo(IRC/CIR) + Var(last event of french tarmac championship)
They also talk about two gravel events but don't tell where :confused:
From latest news there would be two 208 R2s from Peugeot-Sport at the rallye du Var last event of the french tarmac rallies championship: one for Germain Bonnefis(about to be crowned french gravel champion)and the other possibly(but not sure yet)for Jérémi Ancian(if crowned Volant 207 winner at the terre des Cardabelles) ;)
No news about who will drive the car at Sanremo though...an italian driver maybe :confused:
Bryan Bouffier to drive 208 R2 for the first time in competition in Rally Sanremo :)
Can't wait for next friday :bounce:
Would be fantastic if Bouffier could set times in the "middle" of the best R3 drivers ;)
