Not the first time a tree goes through the windscreen of a C3... Shocking indeed, but both driver and codriver are fine, according to the news.

Not the first time a tree goes through the windscreen of a C3... Shocking indeed, but both driver and codriver are fine, according to the news.
Second win in a row for Bonato (third of the season) on last weekend Rallye Coeur de France. With Bouffier leaving the rally after a mistake on SS1, Bonato is now leading the series, ahead of Roché (P2 on this event), Bouffier and Gilbert (off at mid rally). Ciamin was bravely in P5 when tech issues forced him to retire.

Victory of a british driver in Normandie last week-end :D
Sebastian Ling won at the wheels of a DS3 R5 ;)
Favourite was Eric Brunson(Ford Fiesta WRC)but he had a problem on one of the stages(maybe a puncture)and despite his fighting spirit he could only finish 2nd overall...
This weekend the final round of the French gravel championship was held. Lefebvre (C4 WRC) won ahead of Durbec (DS3 WRC) and Michel (Fabia R5). Sylvain Michel claimed the title. In FWD, Grégoire Munster won with a 208 R2, it was his 23rd event this season!
Swede Mattias Adielsson and Belgian Guillaume de Mévius will take part to the rallye du Var next week with a Citroën C3 R5 :eek:
