No doubt, the passage of the first World Series by Renault on the Francorchamps circuit will not be forgotten soon! This Saturday, Bertrand Baguette, the advanced Draco pilot, has managed the feat of dropping a historic victory in front of tens of thousands of spectators, all under the colours of the RACB National Team. The implementation of an ambitious goal, and a big relief after the failed start of Monza, a week earlier ... And yet, everything has not been easy for Bertrand, he left the grid from 3rd place. After a good start, he found himself in 5th after the first passage through Blanchimont, having been forced to lift the foot ... "I found myself on the outer side of th track, and it does not forgive, particularly with Van der Garde, who followed me,". "But for once, I received a small boost by Dame Chance. Miguel Molina, who had anticipated the start, was penalized, while Van der Garde and Jousse were hung in Blanchimont at high speed! There was lots of smoke, but I went without touching anything ... After a quite legitimate neutralization , I am came in the wake of the Mexican Salvador Duran, I have grappled with the braking of the Bus Stop Chicane. It was spectacular, but the first place was for me. I would like to thank Duran for his sportsmanship ... " A few minutes later, Bertrand crossed the checkered flag a big winner under the cheers of a delirious crowd ! "It's hard to describe what I feel today," exclaimed Baguette after arrival. "The timing was perfect, and this victory to all my supporters, Francorchamps, is simply perfect, I would like to thank the Draco team for the work they have done. Even when I found myself 5th, while I continued to believe in th victory. I knew that my car was very fast, and that I could get out. If I went to, nobody would have reviewed ... " The day after this plantureuse victory, Baguette took place on the starting grid for a second game scheduled for 20 laps, with mandatory pit-stop. "I was 6th on the grid, and I took another good start, managing to place me among Wickens and Jousse," explains the National RACB pilot. "Unfortunately, Wickens went face-to-tail, and I expanded my trajectory maximum braking at the Source to avoid it. This could've pass ... but there was a slight contact. Sufficient for folding a suspension, especially distort my direction. The wheel was completely through, and I hesitated to pursue a full load without knowing what would be the reaction of the car in the Raidillon. The behavior I was pretty good despite everything, that the changeover to Combes confirmed. I then also the pace to start a furious rebound ending at the gates of the top 10. My times were really good, despite the fact that the suspension and management were affected! Proof that, once again, my car was very good this weekend ... Anyway, it's really hard to align two consecutive valid results in this championship. I was feeling that there would be something at the "Source", And it happened again, like last year ... " A couac which did not prevent Bertrand Baguette to be the hero this weekend of the Belgian World Series by Renault. A first victory which calls other victories. For the moment, the pilot driving with the Belgian flag for Draco is the only one who managed to defeat the Dutchman Giedo Van der Garde. No, the championship isn't finished yet !
