2015 News and Results

Yep !

"The Peugeot Rally Academy’s second driver will be French ace Charles Martin (25), who followed in the footsteps of Kevin Abbring as winner of the 208 Rally Cup in 2014. His prize for winning that series is six events in the 208 T16, namely four in the European Rally Championship (Circuit of Ireland, Azores, Barum Czech Rally Zlin and Greece) plus two rallies in France (Le Touquet and Var). The Academy’s programme will again be overseen by Team Saintéloc."

But just 4 rounds in ERC? Even Ancian had 6 in 2013.

Škoda doesn't plan any starts before late March/April therefore they have time for negotiations. The stock Fabia is brand new. It needs some promotion and Škoda is in very good financial condition to afford that. We can safely assume they will do ERC, WRC2 and Czech championship together with a certain number of other national championships with the new R5 car (Belgium, Austria for example). For WRC2, ERC and Czech championship they need more than two drivers. Abbring certainly is in the radar but he has another options too.

I presume not the works team in WRC2?

I would still like to see them support a new young Czech driver for the Czech Championship and Kopecky back to ERC.

It all depends when R5 is finally homologated. It can change all plans.

Charles Martin has also 6 starts, but two of them will be in french championship (Touquet and Var). I think it is because Lefebvre will use second Peugeot car on Ypres and winner of JERC 2015 will use second Peugeot on Corse.

Lukasz Kabacinski revealed his plan for the beginning of the ERC season:
"We will start right at the beginning of January from Rally Jänner held in Austria. Afterwards we will take part once again in Rally Liepaja and hopefully in Circuit of Ireland Rally. Further plans will be decided one by one."

His car will look like this:

You can see on entry list to Janner rallye (according to priorities), who is registered.

Apparently Guillaume de Mévius in ERC3 in 2015

I think you mean Ghislain De Mevius, Guillaume is his younger brother who will most likely do a 2nd season with 208 R2 in Belgium. Yes, plan is to drive a Clio R3T as I heard, some European trophy apparently... I don't know more about it.

Guillaume is really registered into ERC3. And I expect he will register also into JERC...
