Peugeot set to field two drivers in at least one Spa 6 Hours entry
The French manufacturer has announced that Malthe Jakobsen is the sole candidate to substitute for Jean-Eric Vergne and Stoffel Vandoorne, who will be occupied with Formula E duties in Berlin. Jakobsen, a 20-year-old Dane, was revealed as Peugeot’s WEC junior driver last summer. Jean-Mart Finot, motorsport boss for Stellantis, emphasized that no decisions have been finalized regarding the line-up for the Spa 6 Hours on 11 May. There are no plans to recruit external drivers to join the Peugeot team for a single race, according to Finot. As for Jakobsen potentially filling one of the vacant seats, Finot mentioned that a decision will be made in due time, and fielding two drivers in each car is “feasible.”
