Curious about the battle between Lefebvre and Vigion. Vigion is well prepared, he did a rally in the Rally5 last weekend finishing 5th overall behind 4 R5 cars (and ahead of a few others).

First time I did Touquet in the dry, what a fast rally. A lot of (big) crashes this year.
The pace in the Clio Trophy is just incredible. Not suprising they crashed 10 out of the 36 clio's, of which 8 heavy...
We finshed 47th overall and 12th Clio, happy with the progress we made over the rally. It was a good preparation for the Belgian Clio Trophy.

And this coming weekend, Rallye des Vosges Grand Est

Rally 2 entrylist less spectacular than in Touquet but a few more cups to follow

Interesting events at Terre d'Occitanie. Such a shame Manu Gascou had to retire, it was a nice throwback to see a 207 S2000 take the fight to the R5s.
In the end, the favourite Consani retired as well, and Benjamin Clemencon won in a Sarrazin Motorsport i20 R5 in front of Léo Rossel and JM Manzagol. Féraud with the C4 WRC ended up 5th. Volant Peugeot was won by Mathieu Franceschi, with over 2 minute lead. Quentin Ribaud won the Clio Trophy.
