François Duval in the game at Spa

The official website of the Spa-Francorchamps World RX meeting confirmed this Wednesday the replacement of Rokas Baciuska, regular driver of the Skoda Fabia – ES Motorsport, by local hero François Duval.

“I am very happy to finally be able to be present for this premiere on the Spa-Francorchamps track, logically recognizes the former resident of the WRC.

Everything was done at the last minute. I know it won't be easy to perform well against the top teams and cars because I don't know the team or the car, but I'm coming without pressure, to have fun. »

François Duval comes out of a successful weekend in the French Championship of Rallycross, with a success at Châteauroux and will be able to count on the support of Jean-Marc Fortin's Overdrive structure for the occasion, which notably took charge of the logistics and the overhaul of the car
