Rhône-Charbonnières Rally – SS11: Raphaël Astier – Denis Giraudet take the lead!

End of rally Completely crazy on this Rhône-Charbonnières! Raphaël Astier – Denis Giraudet (Porsche The 992 GT+ crew set the fastest time on the penultimate stage of the event and took the overall lead by 2,7 seconds over Yoann Bonato and Benjamin Boulloud (Lancia Ypsilon Rally2 HF Integrale). With one stage remaining, everything is still up for grabs, especially since, as a reminder, both crews posted the same time on the final stage of the loop earlier today, proving that they will both be capable of making a strong impression from 15:45 PM onwards.

Behind the two duos mentioned earlier, Hugo Margaillan – Mathieu Coppa continued their momentum and set the 3rd fastest time, eight seconds behind Raphaël Astier. Réhane Gany – Franck Le Floch secured the 4th fastest time on the special stage: it's worth noting that these two crews are competing in the Hyundai i20N Rally2 of Team CHL Sport Auto. Note the time lost by Lucas Darmezin – Charlyne Quartini (Hyundai i20N Rally2) in this stage, having made two mistakes on this long timed section. The VIP Enjolras Race crew nevertheless maintains its fifth position overall. One more stage to run, the Claveisolles stage, which will be one to watch with great interest!
