ERC – Bryan Bouffier aims high at the Acropolis

Bryan Bouffier is preparing to compete next week on Rally of the Acropolis, third test of theERC, after two first rallies contested in winter conditions. Unlike previous editions produced as part of the WRC, this year's route will offer a mixture of dirt and asphalt due to the different period which forces the organizers to modify the route.

However, the Frenchman will have the disadvantage of discovering the behavior of his Citroën DS3 RRC on asphalt only during practice and the qualifying special before facing the second stage without any experience of gravel with this car. “Of course it's not ideal not to take part in a test session, but that's how it is. I am very happy to be able to participate with a good car”, commented Bryan Bouffier on the ERC website. “In Latvia I experienced a big disappointment (retirement while leading the race) so I will do my best to score points. If I have a good feeling with the car on the new stages we can achieve a good result. A podium is my main goal but a victory would be perfect. »
