Doesn't he say also there would be a second 208 T16 in CIR for a Junior, or did I confuse with an R2

According to rallye-magazin.de another delay in homologation of PSA R5 seems possible - Malcom Wilson and Skoda Motorsport would surely be happy about this:

The article talks about problems with cooling, which would explain why the 208 and C5 have such a gaping hole in the front.

Is this car going to be available for Portugal ?

Is this car going to be available for Portugal ?

Would hope so, 8 weeks or so until Portugal and official homologation date is still March 1st, if not delayed so would think there is plenty of time to sort any cooling (or other issues out) but...........
Would like to see it on the CoI too, middle of April.

I have heard that tomorrow or on Thursday there will be january edition of Autosport paper magazine in Portugal released...so I would like to ask our portugese friends to post that Joao Barros design of car from that contest...I am very curious. It has to be something really special. ...Many thanks in advance
