The 2017 FIA World Rallycross Championship’s visit to the United Kingdom saw Team Peugeot Hansen collect a qualifying heat victory, while the work of Sébastien Loeb and #timmyhansen promoted the outfit from third to second place in the provisional Teams’ standings.
• Despite failing to challenge for the weekend’s top prize at #lyddenhill as they did a fortnight ago at Mettet, Belgium, the team’s PEUGEOT 208 WRXs showed good form at the historic British venue. #timmyhansen topped Q4 to take the car’s tally of heat victories to date this season to four.
• For the third time since the beginning of the 2017 championship, both PEUGEOT 208 WRXs reached Sunday’s final. Sébastien Loeb’s car was found to have a radiator leak after his semi-final and had to cope with an overheating engine from the opening lap, although he still managed to complete the race in fourth spot. #timmyhansen was forced to settle for sixth after picking up a puncture.
