The pig is the slaughtered animal of choice in the Emerald Isle In fact the famous 'Irish Breakfast' is an exercise in how many different ways you can find to put pork products on the same plate! Sausage, bacon, black pudding, white pudding and a chop is the usual list. As for Bouffier beating Breen 'at his home', I will just remind people that Circuit of Ireland is in Ulster and not the Republic of Ireland (which is Craig's country). As I see it Craig's only opposition is Kevin A. Should be an interesting event
Kris Meeke got fired -PSG so terrified they quit!

Last time the event was run in IRC it was not going well for Craig. He was badly beaten by all three Škoda crews and after a penalty he finished even behind his teammate Arzeno and Darren Gass (with Impreza WRC S10). For Hänninen (1st), Kopecký (3rd) and Arzeno (4th IRC, 5th overall) it was also their first time on CoI. I'm not sure about Mikkelsen (2nd).

I dont think Breen has any advantage on the Circuit. Last time (2012) he had major car set-up problems which weren't sorted until the last couple of stages, when he was then competitive.
He also had a fuel pump issue and a time penalty plus was running in the mud thrown onto the road by the leading cars cutting.
Given no problems he will be top 3 IMO.#M-SPORTER

By the way Breen is running Circuit of Killeny this coming week-end as a test for Circuit of Ireland
Actually 'Circuit of Kerry' - Tom is getting confused with Kilkenny - not where CB is having the pre CoI run - MMLast edited by Mintexmemory; 4th April 2014 at 12:57. Reason: correction
