World RX – GCK replaces the Renault Megane with the Clio for Chicherit and Baciuska
For 2020, GCK Unkorrupted is swapping its Renault Megane for new Renault Clio. The boss-driver Guerlain Chicherit will be one of the two representatives of the French team in the World Championship of rallycross (World RX), the second wheel going to Rokas Baciuska.

Important clarification, the Clio RS RX used in 2020 no longer has much to do with the model seen in the hands of Cyril Raymond and Guillaume de Ridder within the GCK Academy last year. THE engine, developed by Oreca, receives an update while new BOS shock absorbers appear. The weight distribution has also been revised.
Faithful to its background in extreme sports, Guerlain Chicherit wants to shake up the codes in 2020. “ We're here to cause trouble. I'm excited to bring Unkorrupted to World RX, and together we'll push the boundaries and not be afraid to offend a few. I've spent my entire career taking on new challenges and changing the rules, and this time is no exception. »
À only 20 years old, Rokus Baciuska must confirm after a promising 2019 campaign, marked by two qualifying round victories in just five rounds with the GCK Academy.
“2019 was a crucial year for me, indicates the Lithuanian, 11th in the general ranking with three absences. It proved to me and everyone else that I did indeed have the speed to compete at the top of World RX.
But this time, I want more. After seeing the progress on the Clio RS RX, I want to attack. I'm no longer in the position of the newcomer, it's time for me to get to work. »
