French Mountain Cup Final: Godot and Schmitter dominate the tests

After having performed in their regional leagues throughout the season, it is for the Final of the Coupe de France de la Montagne that the best national riders meet this weekend. And the tests have, this Saturday, already delivered crucial information…

Production Category 

Philippe Schmitter is the favorite this weekend in the Production category at the wheel of the Renault RS01. At the end of the tests, he assumed his status and therefore logically took control in closed cars. But the fight turns out to be intense and the winner of the 2019 final has not said his last word. Indeed, Mathieu Nouet is in second position this evening on his Simca Rally 3, ahead of Julien Dupont and his Cupra Supercopa MK3, leader of Group A at the same time.

Sports category

Small sensation in open cars since Sébastien Godot places his motorcycle-powered Dallara at the top of the general test rankings. Following a successful second climb, the pilot has the luxury of finishing the day as leader. Here again the fight promises to be crazy and for the moment it is Marc Pernot (Norma M20FC 2L) who takes second place, while ahead of Pierre Mayeur on his venerable Martini MK62 having left his mark in the CFM this season. This Sunday, 3 race climbs will sanction this 2nd Montée des Sarmen-telles Beaujolaises and crown, perhaps, new champions.
