Victime d’une sortie de route l’an passé, Taffonneau partait favori, sans aucune R5 pour s’opposer à la Porsche GT3 du Tourangeau. Seuls Launay et sa Golf avec laquelle le pilote solognot s’est illustré au récent Tour de Corse restaient à portée sans toutefois inquiéter le leader. Avant l’ultime boucle de nuit, 11’’ les séparaient mais une rotule cédait peu après sur le nouveau train avant de la Volkswagen, sans dommage pour l’équipage. Taffonneau gagnait ce rally for the third time after his successes in 2007 and 2010. With the ex-Gouley Mitsubishi Evo10, the Ile-de-France Bozec, author of a faultless race, climbed onto the final podium despite four punctures.
In group A, Dutot was delayed from entry by an exit. The Lyonnais Pezzuti, who came to seek points for the final, was a little disoriented by the fast but technical route and could not prevent Vaucel from winning. After the abandonment of Launay, Seray took the victory in F2000 for his return to competition. Alone in group N, Robineau set convincing times, particularly at night. Great performances, finally, from Croquet (F200/13) and Flambard (R2) who climbed into the Top 10. F. Fayman
