On monday(15t august)we should get the pre-entrylist of Rallye du Mont-Blanc next event of french tarmac championship(held on 1st-3rd september) ;)
Finally tomorrow friday will be published the full and definitive entrylist of Rallye du Mont-blanc...stay tuned on ASAC Mont Blanc ;)
Surprise winner at Mont-Blanc: Pierre Campana in the Mini WRC :eek:
Many things happened: Dany Snobeck went off the road while leading, then Frédéric Comte got a huge penalty because was too early out of assistance(10th overall final result) :s
Bad luck for Eric Brunson and Pierre Roché who retired with mechanical problems...
Fantastic result for Porsche driver Gilles Nantet who finished 2nd overall and won the trophée Michelin :up:
Fantastic performance by Cédric Robert in the Citroën DS3 R3T who won the GrR/2WD and get his best result overall(4th) :D
Best of the Clio R3s was as expected belgian driver Kris Princen, althought Thomas Barral wasn't too far behind
Many many retirements, especially many crashes :mark:
Campana dissapointed me again had again no pace like in Germany was 2 minutes or something behind Snobeck before he crashed? Roche and Comte lost their chances too in of those 2 stages everything happened there btw. Can't understand how the hell Comte checked out 10 minutes too early?? Epic Failure of Co Driver :s . Nantet indeed brilliant drive his stage times were sometimes faster than Campana! I really want that guy in Belgium to drive against Van Parijs or so :D . Princen outstanding wins the Cup Barral came close in 2nd day!
I was a bit surprised how easily Cédric Robert destroyed 2WD opponents this time. Even Arzeno was off his pace and later crashed...
Hey !!!! Next round of french gravel championship this coming week-en but...in Spain(Catalunya) :eek: :D
Rally Lloret Terra Catalunya ;)
Great entrylist as usual, with France vs Belgium as always :cool:
LISTE D
Sébastien Ogier on entrylist of Rallye Vosgien(eastern France)this week-end(at wheel of his DS3 wrc as training before rallye de France in Alsace) ;)
Of course his main contender should be Dany Snobeck in his C4 WRC(usual driver in french tarmac championship)...meaning no real contender at all :mark:
Huge number of retirements after 4 stages of Rallye Catalunya(event of french gravel championship) :s
But already a logical leader, Simon Jean-Joseph in his 207 S2000(Kumho tyres) :D
Best Belgian is third overall(Bernard Munster in his Skoda Octavia WRC) ;)
Fantastic run by young dutch driver Kevin Abbring, 5th overall, solid leader of 2WDs despite a puncture on the shortest stage(SS2 = 3km long) :cool:
Results on FFSA | 1er Rallye Lloret Terres de Catalunya - 2011
This run in Gravel really improved Kevin's skills there! Psa must like it Neuville great on Tarmac and Kevin on Gravel. :D
