Fiesta #104

Thanks They will sell the other? I heard that can arrive another Fiesta to one driver that used 2wd car last year.

[Co-driven]

The Peugeot 208 R5 of Brazilian driver Ilo dos Santos already arrived. The car is located in Paraguay, and he will contest the Paraguayan Championship and, maybe, the FIA Codasur Championship. Gustavo Saba's team will run his car.

This weekend they tested the car (both the Peugeot and the Skoda S2000 of Saba). Apparently Kopecky came to Paraguay to help them with testing.

The first event of the Championship is in the next weekend.

I wonder whether he had a go in the Peugeot too.

[dimviii]

i am almost sure.

[N.O.T]

I wonder whether he had a go in the Peugeot too.

I do not think that if they were official Peugeot mechanics there would let Kopecky test the Peugeot.

Lol, you have no idea N.O.T... Official Peugeot mechanics for some national event in Paraguay.. Maybe one engineer if they are very lucky. Last year Citroën let Freddy Loix drive the DS3 R5 BEFORE homologation during Michelin tests (Loix is doing many development tests for Michelin), even while they were aware he's involved in the development of the Fabia R5.

You can add that during the development of Fabia S2000 Kopecký had his own 207 S2000 at home and also sometimes drove Punto S2000 from JM Racing. This time the Škoda man who knows the competitors is Loix. He has experience with DS3 R5 and Fiesta R5 at least.

The best of such cases for me is Yves Matton running Fiesta RRC in WRC2
