    I think Fabia 3 Will debut in March in Geneve but Will only be in the market for sale in the last quadrimester

    Only Škoda knows but it shall be all R5 except the bodyshell. Obviously the gearbox isn't 6-speed S2000 one, the gears are too long for that.

    That's from the test which first came to public. Long time a go...

    ALS is allowed in R5, it's only limited by not having air by-pass channel directly to the exhaust. If I understand right it's than more up to the driver how much he can handle.

    I don´t think so - drivers who want a Peugeot R5 or Citroen R5 will simply wait. Chances are great that they won´t miss too much, because many championships finally start in March, when both cars should be homologated.

    Great loosers will be ERC winter cup rallies, at least the first two rallies (Jänner and Latvia).

    I really hope the Fabia doesn't lose the anti-lag sounds by the time it is homologated. So far it is by far the best sounding of the R5 cars.

    Peugeot officially informed customers that the homologation of 208 T16 is postponed to 1st March. I wonder what they will do with first two or even three ERC events...

    Let’s hope that as many as possible who have ordered a R5 have a S2000 to use in the first rallies and for those who haven’t, Peugeot should give them one.

    I’ve understood that the R5 have better performance compared to a S2000 so the S2000 drivers would have a disadvantage during the first rallies.

    It really depends who is driving the R5s. In the end I don't think it will matter too much.
