In its second season of competition, the Abarth 124 rally is consolidating its unbeatable position in the GT category: the French pair Raphael Astier and Frédéric Vauclaire from the Milano Racing Team sealed their victory in the FIA R-GT Cup, already an arithmetical certainty since the previous race, with another win in the last race in the championship, the Rallye du Valais, held in Switzerland, also achieving an excellent ninth place overall and victory amongst the 2WD drive cars. This wins brings the French pair's victory total to four, out of four races valid for the FIA R-GT World Cup. The French crew ran a perfect race. Setting off in the lead right from the initial special stage, they kept up an excellent pace all the way to the finish. Another Abarth 124 rally, in the colours of the Swiss Zeughaus Garage team, finished in third place in the GT category with Beat and Janine Wyssen.
