Victorious, JB Dubourg gets closer to the title

In Val Thorens this Friday, Jean-Baptiste Dubourg definitively put an end to the title hopes of Yann Ehrlacher (MRacing) and Aurélien Panis (Saintéloc Racing). If mathematically everything is still possible, the DA Racing driver flew through this first day and seems destined for the coronation.

Starting from first place on the grid, JB Dubourg dominated the Super Final of the Elite Pro category of the day head and shoulders. At the wheel of his Renault Zoé, the 33-year-old from Bordeaux quickly took cover with almost 1" ahead of Aurélien Panis at the end of the first round.

The rest was rather quiet and Jean-Baptiste Dubourg was never under threat from any driver, thus ensuring another victory this season. He finished ahead of Aurélien Panis and Olivier Pernaut (Saintéloc Racing).

JB Dubourg won Day 1 in Val Thorens with 67 points, 8 more than Aurélien Panis and 10 more than Olivier Pernaut.

Overall, Jean-Baptiste Dubourg is now 36 lengths ahead of Yann Ehrlacher (MRacing). Aurélien Panis completes the Top 3, 37 points behind the leader, who only has to ensure to win this edition of the e-Andros Trophy.

The small final was won by Nicolas Cheers (DA Racing) ahead of Julien Fébreau (Saintéloc Racing) and Sébastien Loeb (Sébastien Loeb Racing).
