Un GPO en or pour Intrepid

Organisé à Lyon, le dernier GPO de la saison 2009 a été fortement marqué par les couleurs
Action – Intrepid France. 2 super poles, 12 podiums dont 7 victoires et la récompense suprême de 2 titres pilotes en KF3 et KZ2, c’est une véritable razzia par les châssis Intrepid !

Norman Nato a fait le job d’une manière remarquable, bien secondé par Clément Da Silva récemment intégré à l’équipe. Favori, Nato devait marquer quelques points pour atteindre le titre, en évitant surtout la moindre faute. Le programme a été bouclé à la perfection dès le samedi puisque Nato et Da Silva ont réalisé une série ininterrompue de doublés depuis les chronos jusqu’à la finale.
Pour bien enfoncer le clou, Norman gagnait la préfinale dimanche et assurait en seconde position pour la finale. De loin le meilleur performer de l’année, Norman Nato devient logiquement Champion de France KZ2 2009.
Pour Pascal Belmaaziz, les choses se présentaient moins bien, puisqu’il abordait le dernier GPO à la 3ème position du Championnat. Situation difficile, aucun joker en poche, mais stratégie simple : à fond, et même au-delà ! Pascal et l’équipe ont pris tous les risques samedi avec 100 % de succès : chronos, super pole, préfinale et finale en 1ère position. La gestion a été un peu plus prudente dimanche matin sur une piste glissante mais la victoire en finale a conclu la marche triomphale vers le titre de Champion de France KF3.
Action – Intrepid France avait mis les petits plats dans les grands pour accueillir le GPO Circus sur ses terres. Le village GPO a été animé comme jamais par l’équipe de Gilbert et Julien Dannonay : le stand Intrepid a fait salle comble, notamment au moment des podiums, et le public a pu apprécier les machines orange habilement valorisées par les autos de prestige exposées par Actua. Rien de tel pour mettre en avant le professionnalisme d’un team qui se fait aussi remarquer par une convivialité incomparable.
Vincent Fraïsse a très bien repris le flambeau de Brandon Maïsano en KF2. Son arrivée chez Action – Intrepid France a provoqué un déclic majeur dans la carrière de ce jeune pilote. Il est l’auteur d’un solide parcours à Lyon, interrompu par une chaîne éprise de liberté après sa victoire en préfinale.
La saison 2009 à peine terminée de manière plus que convaincante, Action – Intrepid France prépare déjà 2010 avec de plus grandes ambitions : pilotes plus nombreux, résultats encore meilleurs et les titres constructeurs en ligne de mire !
Pourtant, Action – Intrepid France ne visait pas les titres nationaux cette saison, le team alignant un seul pilote par catégorie. Mais les performances excellentes de Norman Nato en KZ2 et de Pascal Belmaaziz en KF3 leur ont permis d’être couronnés Champions de France. En KF2, Brandon Maïsano avait parfaitement amorcé la trajectoire, superbement reprise ensuite par Vincent Fraïsse, révélation de la fin d’année.
Le titre aurait bien pu revenir aussi à Intrepid sans ce changement de pilote en cours de route. Un grand bravo à Ludovic Miretti dans le rôle du maillon fort puisque c’est grâce à sa structure LM Karting que les châssis ont pu donner leur maximum et que les moteurs ont propulsé l’équipe vers la victoire.
