ALPINE ELF EUROPA CUP
Circuit Paul Armagnac de Nogaro

Chazel Technologie Course monopolised the top step of the podiums at the Circuit Paul Armagnac in #Nogaro with two overall and Junior victories with Lucas Frayssinet and Edwin Traynard, and another two in the Gentleman category with #philippebourgois. After round one of the season, Edwin Traynard leads the general classification, but the gaps are extremely close and the competition is already preparing its response for Magny-Cours! With a record field of twenty-five entries, the #alpine Elf Europa Cup launched its fifth season in #Nogaro with a mix of #alpine A110 Cup specialists and beginners from all horizons of the
sport.

RACE 1: A FRAYSSINET DOUBLE, A CHAZEL TRIPLE
While #louismeric (Race Cars Consulting) dominated the first free practice session, Lucas Frayssinet took over in session two before confirming his promising pace to claim the first pole position of the season. The Frenchman was followed by Paul Cauhaupé (Patrick Roger Autosport GP), #louismeric, #simontirman (Autosport GP) and Edwin Traynard in a top-five monopolised by the Juniors.
The poleman kept the lead at the start, while #simontirman gained two positions, moving ahead of #louismeric and Rodolphe Wallgren (Herrero Racing), who started sixth. Meanwhile, Paul Cauhaupé called it a day with a gearshift failure.

The leader extended his advantage from his pursuers, who were engaged in a constant battle. The running order changed under the impulse of Rodolphe Wallgren, who surprised #louismeric on lap seven before setting his sights on #simontirman. Rodolphe Wallgren eventually moved into second place after an intense duel, but Lucas Frayssinet was now seven seconds down the road.

Lucas Frayssinet controlled his lead to seal his maiden victory in the #alpine Elf Europa Cup. Rodolphe Wallgren and #simontirman joined him on the overall podium, as did #simontirman and #louismeric in the Juniors catgeory. Edwin Traynard completed the top five, ahead of Thibaut Bossy (Herrero Racing), Alexis Garcin (Herrero Racing) and Gosia Rdest (Chazel Technologie Course). Ninth at the chequered flag, #philippebourgois completed his team's hat-trick as he dominated the Gentleman category ahead of Anthony Fournier (Race Cars Consulting) and Pierre Macchi (Patrick Roger Autosport GP).

RACE 2: TIRMAN STOPPED IN HIS TRACKS, TRAYNARD WINNER
Simon Tirman celebrated his 26th birthday by taking the pole position for race two by less than a tenth of a second ahead of Edwin Traynard, #louismeric and Paul Cauhaupé. The poleman made an excellent start to stay ahead of an unchanged quartet, while Louis Maurice (Code #racing Development) overtook Thibaut Bossy for fifth place. In a similar scenario to the previous day, the leader progressively escaped and Rodolphe Wallgren made a series of passes as the laps ticked off.

As the intensity increased throughout the field, the race changed on lap eight when #simontirman retired with a loss of power due to a wastegate problem. Edwin Traynard inherited the lead, followed by #louismeric and Paul Cauhaupé. At the same time, Rodolphe Wallgren overtook Louis Maurice shortly before Lucas Frayssinet stopped with a puncture due to a valve stem failure.
