2 from 2 for Urbain in French Nationals

Having opened the French National Championship with a win last month, Awesomatix Lucas Urbain made it 2 from two with another win this time at the MRC Longvic track near Dijon.  Wrapping up an early TQ ahead of RC Maker’s Antoine Brunet and the Mugen Seiki of multiple National Champion Remi Callens, in the triple finals Urbain found himself under more pressure.  With Callens taking A1 from Brunet and French Touring Car stalwart Cyril N Diaye, Urbain bounced back to take A2 after being pushed hard by Brunet.  With A3 the decider, Urbain managed to again keep Brunet at bay to claim maximum points towards the 5 round championship.  With his A1 win Callens claimed 2nd on the tie break with Brunet.  In 13.5 Pro-Stock Enzo Rousselin took both the TQ and the win ahead of Benjamin Elbisser and Alexandre Duchet.
