Marc Duez with theAlpine A110 RGT to Ypres

Team FJ could not choose a better ambassador for start theAlpine A110 RGT in the World Rally Championship on the occasion of Rally of Ypres (November 20-22).

The team of Jérôme and Jean Galpin will be able to count on the legend of Belgian rallies Marc Duez to develop the latest Signatech product on the fast roads of the Belgian event, 47 years after the Constructeurs des Mousquetaires crown in 1973.

A figure in national motorsport, with victories at Spa or at the Nürburgring on the circuit, and of course in rallying, with three Belgian champion crowns, Marc Duez will find propulsion like in the heyday of the BMW M3.

“It’s a great adventure where I will be surrounded by enthusiasts, specifies the pilot. Jacques Castelein, my navigator, is a long-time friend and our understanding in the car is perfect. We also have a very strong friendship with the Galpin family and it is a real pleasure to ride for their always very professional team.

I can't wait to discover theAlpine Rally R-GT after having driven with cars as legendary as the BMW M3 or the Porsche ...even if the conditions will certainly not be the best for propulsion. Finally, a big thank you to Frank De Tant and the Center Alpine Brussels who made this participation possible. »

THEAlpine A110 RGT will wear the colors of the Center Alpine Brussels. But there is still uncertainty surrounding the possibility of competing in the race, given the deterioration of the health situation linked to the coronavirus pandemic.
