The new year has barely started, and eyes are already on the sporting seasons to come. This is how the French Motor Sport Federation has just formalized the compositions of its two French FFSA Teams, one for the circuit under the captaincy of Jean Alesi and the other for the rally under the leadership of Pierre Ragues , both reunited this week during a pre-season training course at altitude in Val Thorens (Savoie).
5 drivers make up the first of the two with Victor Martins at the head of the gondola, whose 2025 program has not yet been announced, Alessandro Giusti, who will discover Formula 3 at MP Motorsport and in the Williams Racing fold, Enzo Peugeot and Evan Giltaire , who will both repeat in FRECA, and Jules Caranta, now attached to the Red Bull Junior Team, who will play in Eurocup 3. The five boys will obviously have the same objective as one of their recent predecessors in the person of Isack Hadjar: to climb the ladder to Formula 1.
The French FFSA Rallye Team, back after a season of absence, gives pride of place to southerners. The 2024 French Rally Champions Léo Rossel and Guillaume Mercoiret are part of the adventure as are Pablo Sarrazin and Geoffrey Combe, while Sarah Rumeau and Julie Amblard, still supported by Iron Dames, become the first women to join the system. The 3 crews will notably be present in WRC2 in 2025 and will participate in the next Monte Carlo Rally from January 23 to 26.

« This course is always a special moment for me, the opportunity to do a physical assessment and individual interviews with all the pilots, in order to evaluate their progress.points out Christophe Lollier, National Technical Director of the FFSA.During these few days, we will confront the circuit drivers with complex technical situations on ice, while the objective for the rally crews is the preparation for the Monte Carlo in a few days. The fact that all our circuit drivers come from the national detection center demonstrates that our federal system works and that we work with talents with high potential. Everyone will be able in 2025 to reach podiums and titles. »
