For Bernardo Sousa, a new experience with a new car on roads that he does not know.
"Pier Liberali of United Business offered me the opportunity to drive the Peugeot S2000” said Bernardo β€œin Rally Sanremo I was able to follow the work of the PA Racing team and I was impressed with the car and by the professionalism that they demonstrated, in a very short time both United Business and PA Racing have organized everything. I am happy, certainly with a car which I have never driven on roads that I do not know, I will try to do a safe race and without problems, at this moment the most important thing is to have this new experience and to try to find the right feeling with the car. A cooperation has begun with United Business, this is the first race I do with them, both I and Pier Liberali are confident that this first experience might have a future and to work together for 2012".
