Kenneth Hansen (Team Principal):
“It really is great to be back at Lohéac. It’s our home round on Peugeot territory, of course. We have often gone well there previously and we are targeting another successful weekend this season. We feel confident and hope to be part of the scrap for at least a top-three finish. We’ll see how the action unfolds…”
Sébastien Loeb (Peugeot 208 WRX #9):
“It’s always nice to race at Lohéac where the atmosphere is superb. It’s the French round of the championship, so we will have plenty of supporters who, at the same time, will be expecting us to deliver. It’s an interesting track with good overtaking opportunities and it produced some great racing last season. It’s good to be able to pass without necessarily having to wait for your joker lap. I finished on the podium last year and would love to make it onto the top step this time round.”
Timmy Hansen (Peugeot 208 WRX #21):
“I have fantastic memories of coming first in the RX Light race at Lohéac in 2015. Winning in front of Peugeot’s home crowd made me feel like I was on top of the world for a short moment. Looking out from the podium, there was a sea of people. A huge buzz. I can’t wait to get there again this year. It’s the biggest race of the rallycross season and, along with Höljes, is undeniably one of the highlights of Team Peugeot Hansen’s year.”
Kevin Hansen (Peugeot 208 WRX #71):
“I’m thrilled at the prospect of competing at Lohéac as part of the Peugeot factory team in the world championship! There’s always a huge turnout and I was fast there last year, so I think another good run is possible this time round.”
