Rallycross de Lessay – Vincent defies the predictions

Uncompromising during qualifying with four victories, then winner of his semi-final, Julien Fébreau (208 RX1) was the big favorite for the final in Lessay. He found David Vincent (208 RX1) and Romuald Delaunay (DS 3 RX1) on the front row. Delaunay and Fébreau bore the brunt of the first turn. If the first city started at the back of the pack, Fébreau managed to take second place behind David Vincent.

The leader of the final maintained a strong pace to keep Fébreau at bay and ensure a good passage in the Tour Joker. Vincent went on to set the lap record and regained first place when Fébreau passed through the “Joker Lap” on the last lap. David Vincent won his second race in Supercar for his third appearance in the premier category of the discipline.

Starting from the last row after tricky qualifying, Samuel Peu (208 RX1) took advantage of the eventful start to grab an almost unexpected third place.

In the French Super1600 Championship, David Bouet (Fabia RX3) resisted pressure from Jimmy Terpereau (C2 RX3) throughout the final to claim his first victory on his first appearance in the category. A few minutes later, the event officials declared Terpereau the winner on the “green carpet”.

Author of the best start in the Division 3 final, Nicolas Beauclé (Mercedes Class A) had a perfect weekend with maximum points for its first victory in the discipline.

Fourth in the intermediate ranking in Division 4, Anthony Mauduit (Clio 3) took advantage of the final stages to win.
