After 2011, 2013 and 2015, Laurent Lacomy signs another victory by having managed his race despite an alternator problem which cost him more than a minute in SS 5, just before service. The Citroën driver then only had a 9'' lead, but he took all the scratch points the next day to win with a margin of 1'44'.

Deuxième et auteur de chronos réguliers, Lecureux a effectué une belle performance, lorsque l’on sait qu’il roule très peu dans l’année. Caillat (Toyota Célica), longtemps sur le podium et solide leader du Groupe A, renonçait sur problème mécaniques après l’ES 6, laissant le groupe et une place dans le Top 5 à Gassend. En F2000, Dommerdich (Peugeot 205) took the lead from the start but gave up after SS 3. Masclaux won in the end but two small problems caused him to miss the Top 5 overall.

For Group N, Le Coarer (Subaru Impreza) without much adversity, set eight scratch times and had more than a minute in advance before the last time, when the mechanics decided otherwise. Victory went to Revol. Finally, in GT, Bugnazet won without any adversity, with more than 4′ on his runner-up.
