The former champion of the Coupe de France des Rallyes in 1995 and of the Cope de France de la Montagne 2000 with a Renault 5 Turbo, Stéphane Poudrel, will participate in the Speed category of the 65 edition of the Moritz Rally Costa Brava.

The French drive will attend the mythical event with his Triumph TR7 V8 Gr. 4. Both present and last season, his numerous participations in European tests are worth mentioning, such as the Rally de l’Ardèche, The Rallye du Picodon, the Rallye Autun La Châtaigne, the Rallye du Dauphiné, the Rallye de Venasque or the Rallye du Chablais in Switzerland. Among his accomplishments, he owns a meritorious 3rd place at the Cap Corse Historique Rally in 2016, behind Alain Oreille’s Porsche and Christophe Vaison’s Lancia 037, and ahead of 4th place finisher François Foulon, also confirmed for the Rally Moritz Costa Brava.
