This weekend was the last round of French championship at Savigny-Le-Temple near Paris. The track was very complicated during the first lap because it was Bumpy and dusty.

During the practice I change the set-up, putting different piston / oil / shock position and found easy set-up for the 1st qualification. 1st Qualification was perfect, the track wasn't so bumpy and the car worked very well and I finished 2nd behind Yannick Aigoin.

But after this round, the track take a lot of grip and was so bumpy, the setup wasnâ™t good and I had to change some parts. The new set-up wasnâ™t good. I finish finally 11th after the 5th qualifications. I wasn't satisfied with my qualification because I know I could do better.

On Sunday were the semifinal and the final rounds. I changed set-up again. During the semi practice I saw a different car! More comfortable but I wasn't fast. For the semi I changed the anti-roll bar. Car was more stable in and out of the corner but less controled in the bump ... I finish finally 4th in my group but I knew that for the main it will be very difficult to do a good result so I made another changes in the set-up, but this time I found the good one!

Starting 8th on the grid, I had a good start and after it was on 5th place but I did some mistakes and loose time on the other drivers. After 5 minutes I was 4th and I was able to overtake drivers in front of me but the first driver was so far! Thanks to some problems of other drivers I was able to take the leadership during 10-15 minutes but after a big mistake was Rayan behind me and the battle for the lead between him and me started. Unfortunately after my big mistake Rayan took a big gap and I couldn't catch up him and I finished 2nd after 45 minutes 12 seconds behind the leader, but I'm proud of this result. I found a good setup for the bumpy track. It was 2nd time I run on this kind of track.
