From this article: http://www.autosport.cz/clanek.php?cl=16283
Translation of Jakeš's words
We did around 120 kilometers during the test near Vyškov. The engine is fantastic and the same feeling I have about brakes. It's big difference for me because I can compare the new Citroën basically only with my last years Lancer. The worse thing is suspension. The setup we got from the French is totally useless for Czech roads. The chassis is extremely stiff, it could work only on circuit or on some their French asphalts. When we drove over straights it was quite ok but when some bumpy part appeared the car was very nervous. I didn't try any real crest so I have no idea how the suspension will behave in landings. Anyway the only chance to improve especially to set the suspension properly is to test and test. I strongly believe Rostislav Šašek will help us with dampers. He is preparing dampers also for Mini of Václav Pech.Stupid is as stupid does. Forrest Gump

Interesting. Confirms why the Peugeots were below expected performance in Ireland. Originally Posted by Mirek

I'm pretty sure that Peugeot didn't do Ireland with default customer setup Originally Posted by RS

Munster is almost always faster than McErlean, but too many mistakes... He also really doesn't like this Hankook + hybridless car, but I'm afraid it's just not enough after more than 2 full seasons. ...
