Germain Bonnefis takes on the IRC

Until the next race of the French gravel rally championship at the end of August, in Lozère, the winner of the 207 Volant 2011 will not be idle. He will indeed be at the start tomorrow of the 7th round of the IRC, in San Marino, on the Peugeot 207 S2000 prepared by PH Sport which he shares with Olivier Fournier. “ This is a fantastic opportunity, rejoices Germain Bonnefis. We will start the first loop with the objective of not making any mistakes, to then try to increase the pace from the second pass and thus really see where we are compared to the competition. But I remain realistic when I see the entry list. I am very proud to compete against drivers such as Andreas Mikkelsen, who represents a reference ».

Peugeot Sport, which invites him to test sessions for the 207 S2000 and the new 208 R2 which will replace it, will also offer him the opportunity to drive on the circuit this summer. Bonnefis will indeed line up in the RCZ Racing Cup at the Magny-Cours round, the weekend of July 14-15.
