With a 29,2-second lead at the start of this second stage, Laurent Pellier (Fabia RS Rally2-2C Yacco RS) could be confident.
The leader of the French Championship was stung in SS7 by the scratch of Pablo Sarrazin (C3 Rally2-Sarrazin Motorsport Iron Lynx).
From then on, Pellier would confirm his status as the favorite for the title by winning the next five scratch races. He reached the finishing podium with a lead of more than 55 seconds over his main pursuer.
Whether on asphalt or dirt, Pablo Sarrazin is on the podium. After two consecutive third-place finishes, he now climbs to second place. This gives him confidence before heading to Portugal.
Emmanuel Gascou (Fabia RS Rally2-AMD Motorsport) scores valuable points with third place.
The Top 5 is completed by Pierre Ragues (Fabia RS Rally2-2C Yacco RS) and Sarah Rumeau (C3 Rally2-Sarrazin Motorsport Iron Lynx), who had a great second leg.
Loïc Costes (208 Rally4) remained strong to claim his second victory in the Stellantis Motorsport Rally Cup 4 ahead of Mattéo Codaccioni (208 Rally4) and Benjamin Barnouin (208 Rally4).

We should invite some big names or foreigners because the level is really very low this year, not a single foreigner in preparation on the eve of the ERC Hungary unlike the CIRT or the Spain Gravel, 120 km of time trials alone would take the CFT up a notch.
