Citroën drivers feeling confident after shakedown

Comunicato Stampa disponibile solo in lingua originale. 

The #rally de #portugal shakedown was held this morning close to Baltar, around fifty kilometres from Porto. Kris Meeke and Paul Nagle were the Citroën Total Abu Dhabi WRT's best performers, setting the fourth fastest time.

- Made up of a succession of crossroads, a wide section and finishing on the large corners of a gravel circuit, the #rally de #portugal shakedown was varied... without particularly reflecting the characteristics of the event itself.

- After completing their three mandatory runs, Kris Meeke and Paul Nagle headed back to the Matosinhos service park to alter the set-up of their #c3wrc. They headed out for another two runs and finished with the fourth fastest time, 3/10ths off the lead pace.

- #stephanelefebvre and Gabin Moreau completed two series of two passes on the 4.6km-long stage. On their final run, they were on course to set a top-ten time when they stalled on a hairpin. In the end, the French crew set the twelfth fastest time.

- #craigbreen and Scott Martin completed five passes. On their third attempt, they set the thirteenth fastest time, a tenth of a second behind their team-mates.

- On their first competitive outing in the #c3wrc, Sheikh Khalid Al Qassimi and Chris Patterson also completed five runs. They progressed on each pass, ending up with the sixteenth fastest time.

- Later on this afternoon, the crews will drive onto the Guimarães podium for the ceremonial start of the #rally. The first stage will be contested this evening on the Lousada rallycross circuit from 7.03pm (GMT+1). The cars will then enter parc ferme for the night.
