Breton makes a mistake and Porte wins

Racamier was on the front row, with Breton 11th, and Bielatowicz 16th. Thierry Racamier (Tony Kart) immediately took the lead ahead of Didier Devaux (Energy), Mathieu Monier (Energy) and Pierrick Porte (Energy). There were 20 laps to go to win the French Cup. Pierre Allemand (PCR) took 5th from Steve Cognet, Ludovic Breton (Kosmic), Olivier Michon and Alain Mari.

Porte was closer to the leader Racamier, and the differences were small between the top 7. Monier was passed by Devaux. Porte took the lead on lap 6. Racamier responded to Porte and it was far from over. Breton was now second behind Racamier. Three karts were in front, Breton, Racamier and Porte. Devaux was ahead of Monier, Cognet and Allemand in a lively quartet.

Racamier and Porte seemed to moderate their behaviour until the best opportunity. This was done on lap 12 with overtaking from Porte, and Breton faced Racamier. The first two got away, and Porte could not get close enough to win from second place. Breton was able to raise his game at the end of the race and thought he had taken the French Cup in X30 Gentleman, but he relaxed well before the finish line, thinking that victory was his … A cruel mistake! Pierrick Porte benefited to go first under the checkered flag. Amazing. Ludovic Breton was dramatically second, and Thierry Racamier took the third step of the podium.
