Road rallies - 44th Beaujolais Rally: Manoel Delaval above the crowd! - Col du Chêne: Toniutti puts everyone in agreement!

Brilliant winner of this 4th round of the 2009 French Rally Championship, Delaval strengthens his lead over Maximus: the Buell XB 12 Central Team driver left nothing but crumbs to his pursuers by winning most of the specials. !

Col du Chêne: Toniutti puts everyone in agreement !

Surprise at the Col du Chêne special: this time it is Julien Toniutti riding the Suzuki 750 GSXR of the Teddy Bear Racing Team who puts everyone in agreement in 0’56”551! This is the birthday present he reserved for his dad, who was waiting for him at the top of the special … As passionate as his son, father Toniutti will be 59 the next day. !

And new surprise: it is Pascal Leger (alias Doddy) of Racing Mob Creusotin (ex-organizer of the Morvan rally) who completes a second time in 0’56”856 while Mano Delaval pockets the third time in 0’56 ” 963 … You shouldn’t piss off the Mano, guys … He’s going to put in some more gazzzz…

And indeed: during the last special of the day, Manoel Delaval signed another scratch, this time in 2’17”941 ("2’17 ” how much, Sergei ?", he asks everyone … Maxime Olivieri also improves his lap times by slamming 2’19”549 with his KTM 690 SM (!) and the third time is for Olivier Aubonnet in 2’20 ” 079.
