Canivenq aims for the title at Var

Organized on the last weekend of November, the Rally du Var once again closes the French Rally Championship. With the presence of Sébastien Loeb, Robert Kubica, Stéphane Sarrazin, Romain Dumas and Freddy Loix in addition to the usual competitors, the field will be very well stocked on the specials around Sainte-Maxime. From Friday to Sunday, everyone will struggle with victory in their sights.

Among the drivers present, three will approach the rally differently, thinking about the title they can still win. Guillaume Canivenq, the Championship leader with 82 points, will approach the event with only one idea in mind. “ We will of course do everything to be Champions of France! “, he says. " The logic of things, namely our fairly favorable position in the ranking, would dictate that we are not racing at full speed? »

Second with 76 units, Emmanuel Guigou will not ask any questions for the epilogue of the Championship at the wheel of his Renault Clio R3. “ For us, it will be all the way, all the way, all the way! The stage is so huge that there is a risk of fighting on every level. We are going to release the maxi attack. » Finally, the third man in the battle will be Patrick Henry who follows just behind with 74 points. “ We will fight with the other pilots of WRC and we'll do the math at the end. Both for me and for the Team which is also playing for the title. »

With eleven special stages to be contested in three days, the competitors will cover just over 230 kilometers across the roads of the Var.
