La saison commence !
Enfin, c'est officiel : je participe à la première épreuve FIA organisée sur le continent, à Riga en Létonie après plusieurs éditions au Japon.
La grille de départ est incroyable, que de "stars", que de talents ! Je vais me régaler.
D'autant plus que je retrouve l'équipe VEEGA qui me ramène de Lituanie la Nissan 350Z V8 Turbo avec laquelle j'ai claqué un excellent résultat en 2020 au Drift Master GP.
Voici le communiqué officiel :
FIA IDC is back with an impressive entry!
31 drivers representing 18 different countries will mark the return of the world’s premier drifting competition.
The entry is headlined by reigning two-time Cup winner Georgy ‘Gocha’ Chivchyan, who will pilot his familiar Nissan Silvia S15 that took him to his previous two crowns.
New for 2021, a Team Title will also be awarded for the first time, with five teams currently registered to compete. All teams can have squads of either two or three drivers, with just the best two scoring points.
The 2021 FIA Intercontinental Drifting Cup will be held on 12-13 June at the Biķernieki Sport Complex in Riga, Latvia. This will be the first Cup under the stewardship of a new promoter, Russian Drift Series (RDS).
Live stream details will be published shortly. Stay tuned!
