Release :
"For this second race of the season, I discovered this
Val de Vienne circuit. After studious free practices, I confirmed my speed of Barcelona by awarding me the 2nd
time during qualifications, unless a tenth of the pole."
Race 1: "Start in the first line. I preserve my second
place after the first braking. At the middle of the race, an accident in bottom of
pack causes the arrival of the safety car on track. I return to the contact of Serge Heriau. In the restart, I stay in the bumpers of the leader, and take advantage of the
pursuit in the big straight line to try a first attack. We
were side by side and in the braking point we were both too late: Serge Hériau leaves outside of the
corner and I spin, propped up engine. I leave 22nd and
raise 10 places in the remaining laps to finish this
race 12th."
Race 2: "Start 12th, I make a clean race and raise up to the 4th
place. Hampered by some grip problems me I was not able
to catch the podium. "
Race 3: "Start
7th, I find a well balanced car which allows me to play
for victoire. 4 laps are enough to me to take the lead. I begin to escape when suddenly the engine
leaves me (breakdown of the gas pump). The disappointment
was big because the victory was promised to me... "
