Manu Guigou on an FIA R-GT program with theAlpine A110

His discovery of Rally Monte Carlo, first round of World Rally Championship WRC 2021, but also FIA R-GT World Cup, ended with a category victory at the wheel of theAlpine A110 operated by Team Joffroy.

Building on this success and his experience at the wheel of the creation of Signatech, Manu guigou will tackle all the rounds of the specific R-GT classification, made up of four other asphalt rounds, with the Ain-Jura Rally (May 7-9), the Rally di Roma Capitale (July 23-25, in ERC), Ypres (August 13-15, in WRC) and Catalonia (October 14-17, also in WRC).

A great program for those accustomed to the group's cars Renault. “With five events in Europe, this FIA R-GT World Cup project therefore ideally fits into the new ambitions ofAlpine, indicates the driver who will always be supported by Alex Coria.

I am also convinced that we can make our contribution by demonstrating the potential ofAlpine A110 Rally and helping its commercial development outside our borders.

A fantastic season awaits us, but the hardest part remains to be done. We managed to get plenty of points during the first meeting at Monte-Carlo, and the next two stages of the calendar will take me to two rallies that I also have to discover before returning to more familiar terrain in Ypres and Catalonia.

The objective will therefore be to regularly take points on each event to be in the best position when doing the accounts. »
