This year’s event in Colorado will take place on the 30th June on the new course which has been completely asphalted since Ari’s day – all 20 kms of it and 156 corners. It also climbs from 2,800 metres to 4,300 metres at its highest point, so it’s just a wee bit more challenging than the Rest and Be Thankful!
Peugeot have developed a 208 T16 for the job with support from Total, Red Bull, Michelin - and Sébastien Loeb. Citroën allowed the nine-time World Rally Champion to drive the car on an event which he has never contested – and would love to.
There’s no detail as yet on the spec of the 208 T16 ‘Pikes Peak’ car, but Peugeot have released a couple of pics.
