Several drivers of various profiles (professionals, gentlemen drivers, young and experienced) take turns on board, with the aim of gathering as much information as possible before its approval scheduled for the end of 2019.
THEAlpine A110 Rallye, officially announced by the manufacturer owned by the group Renault in May 2019, is developed by the company Signatech, already to the author of the GT4 version and Cup in 2018. The engine is taken from the standard S version and delivers 300 horsepower. The weight must be contained at 1 kg despite the safety devices required by the Fédération Internationale de l'Automobile (FIA).
