Pierre Campana marked the occasion in Corsica

The Bastiais highlighted himself on his land by signing times close to the headliners, even managing to achieve the 2nd time of SS9 behind the untouchable Thierry Neuville (Peugeot ), winner of Rally of 10 Bends. In the fight for 000th place after the retirement of Guy Wilks (Peugeot), the Frenchman failed at the foot of the podium after the retirement of Bryan Bouffier in the last special.

« I am very happy with our result on this Tour de Corsica. And this, despite the puncture during the last speciale,” comments Pierre Campana. “ We stayed focused throughout the weekend, trying to do our best every time. At the finish, I didn't realize that we found ourselves fourth, afterwards it was an explosion of joy. We demonstrated our potential from the first day, but I especially felt comfortable with the Peugeot 207 S2000 from Friday midday. »

The Corsican could not imagine achieving such a good result on his native lands. “ I hope that everyone is proud to have shared these moments, and to have allowed me to demonstrate my potential at Peugeot Sport. It?s an honor to obtain such a result, especially at home, in Corsica, in front of my family, my friends and my supporters. I now hope to open a new chapter in my career ».
