Bouffier: I need to find more speed

Bryan Bouffier says he is far from happy after reaching the first service halt on Rally Islas Canarias El Corte Inglés almost 20 seconds adrift of leader Jan Kopecký.

The Peugeot France star, who tops the Intercontinental Rally Challenge drivers’ standings following his victory on Rallye Monte-Carlo in January, is currently seventh overall in his 207 Super 2000.

“I’m not happy with my times, how can I be?” he said at service in Las Palmas. “I have to increase the speed but the feeling is not so good. I’m still learning the roads but there are things that can be improved with me and with the car.”
