Last-minute entry, Stéphane Lefebvre (GR Yaris Rally2) takes his second victory on a rally which is particularly close to his heart.
Sharp at the wheel of the Toyota, Lefebvre quickly found his bearings to take the lead of the rally from the start of this second stage. Lefebvre could not have imagined a better result before heading off to a European Championship program.
"I didn't dare let myself go in this last special.", declared Yoann Bonato (C3 Rally2-Trajectus Motorsport) at the finish of the last special stage. Bonato knows that the points for second place are important for the rest of the season.

 

 

After a poor tire choice on Friday morning, Eric Camilli (i20 N Rally2-2C Competition) showed a strong burst of speed with a consistent attack. He climbed onto the third step of the podium and scored valuable points on a rally that was not a success for him last year.

Consistent throughout the two days of racing, Réhane Gany (C3 Rally2-Sarrazin Motorsport-Iron Lynx) finished just off the podium and won the Michelin Rally2 Trophy. The Réunion native achieved his best performance on the roads of Le Touquet.

Pablo Sarrazin (C3 Rally2-Sarrazin Motorsport-Iron Lynx) showed great speed and moved into the Top 5 ahead of Hugo Margaillan (i20 N Rally2-CHL Sport Auto).

Considered the benchmark behind the wheel of theAlpine A110 GT-P, Raphaël Astier (CHL Sport Auto) begins the season with a victory in the Two-Wheel Drive Classification. Astier also wins the Michelin Premium Trophy.
