The most visible examples on this event were the way the three crews helped each other out, and then when everyone in the team pitched in to rebuild Stéphane and Jean-Paul’s car. We are naturally very pleased to have won this rally which enabled us to showcase the quality of the Peugeot 2008 DKR. ” - Bruno Famin, Team Manager, Team Peugeot Total / Director,

guessed it would be one of the longest days they have ever experienced in the course of their competitive careers on four wheels. The day’s menu included a 261km stage which they needed to complete without making any mistakes, but at a good pace without pushing their mechanicals too hard. Despite a scare towards the end, and a minor alert which Jean Paul Cottret (#100 co-driver) soon cured, they posted the day’s sixthfastest time to seal the win on only their fourth outing on four wheels. Sébastien Loeb / Daniel Elena concluded the Silk Way Rally with their 10th top-three stage time of the fortnight.

This victory provides further evidence of the Peugeot 2008 DKR’s performance and reliability after already claiming the Dakar rally in January and the China Grand Rally last September. From start to finish, Peugeot 2008 DKR delivered a combination of performance and impeccable reliability.

After seeing their bid for victory end when they rolled on Leg 5, Stéphane Peterhansel / Jean Paul Cottret provided invaluable rear-guard assistance and flawless solidarity to the finish, helping the #102 and #104 Peugeots on several occasions.

Stevenage FC Season Preview
CLICK HERE TO READ THE FULL REVIEW
Stevenage FC rounded off an impressive pre-season with a 4-1 win over Milton Keynes Dons at the Lamex Stadium. The team will look at taking this form into the start of the Sky Bet League 2 Season, with their opening match again Crewe Alexandra.
In five of Stevenage’s last six seasons, Stevenage have either been in League One or League Two’s top seven. Last year ended in disappointment for the club, but they now look at bouncing back and hopefully challenge for promotion. Club Manager, Darren Sarll took over after a frustrating period under Teddy Sherringham’s leadership. Darren with advisor Glenn Roeder seem to be a great partnership and will hopefully provide the team with a foundation for strong performances over the season. Solidarity from the back seem prominent in Stevenage’s pre-season, recording four consecutive clean sheets. This is promising for the team as stand out centre-back partnership of Luke Wilkinson and Dean Wells look at continuing the form they showed in the second half of the season. Another key change to the Stevenage FC set up ahead of the season is the appointment of Long-serving Chris Day as goalkeeper coach. His guidance will be vital in supporting first-choice keeper Jamie Jones, who will certainly benefit from Day’s experience. Many fans and pundits are unsure of how Stevenage will perform this season, especially after the club going from playoff contenders to relegation battlers in the last two years. Many believe the fact Stevenage have kept the core of the squad and the management together will provide the team the opportunity to re-build this season and hopefully challenge for promotion. 10
