Terre de Lozère – Bonnefis: “Avoid the pitfalls”

Three months ago, during the second edition of the Rally Platja d'Aro – Terres de Cataluyna, Germain Bonnefis had abandoned on the first day, thus allowing Paul Chieusse to move to the top of the championship thanks to a second place acquired behind Noël Tron. The Aveyronnais will try to recover his property during the Terre de Lozère Sud de France rally (August 31 – September 2), he who had dominated the start of the season with two victories (Terre de l'Auxerrois and Terre Ouest Provence) and a second place (Terre des Causses).

« I took advantage of the holidays to rest without leaving aside my physical preparation, explains Bonnefis. We are going to this rally calmly because we know how to be precise in our notes, even on new rallies. I trust my co-driver for this and I myself will be careful to avoid the pitfalls of this rally »
