Renaud Savoya crowned French Nitro Buggy national champion

The final round of the French 1/8th Nitro Buggy Championship was held in Perthuis this past weekend with the overall Elite category title still being up for grabs. Eliot Marcon took the overall TQ, winning two of the five qualifying rounds and leaving behind Jerome Aigoin, who also scored two round TQs, in 2nd after the tie-breaker. Yannick Aigoin came in 3rd from Renaud Savoya , who came out with a single round TQ, in 4th. The 45-minute A-main event then had Renaud Savoya (TLR) taking his fourth win in a row this season, some four seconds in front of Xray’s Yannick Aigoin while Team Associated’s Tom Robin came in 3rd, a lap down. Some six seconds behind Tom, Jerome Aigoin (Xray) lead the best of the rest. With the win, Renaud also secured himself the French national title, his 7th overall.
