Frank’s Bandama rally Fact dairy:
FISA president Alain
The event’s clerk of the course, designed demanding stages in terms of driver concentration and strategy.
Alain raised his rally scores with a back to back ARC title wins in 1986 &87 with his maiden continental title in 1983, two years after the inauguration of Africa’s top rally tie.
GARY Chaynes
Champion Rally driver Gary Chaynes is a daredevil when it comes to speed. He’s event defending champion and favourite, won the African title in 2014 in an Evo9.
The Orange-sponsored driver seems to find comfort in the Mitsubishi Evo wheels.
ABONDIO Maxime
When he imported in the Mitsubishi Mirage Proto at the start of the 2022 season, the bar was raised for racing in Cote d’Ivoire and the obvious number of Rally Victories contests to that.
FANE Bakary
He is one of the old clever cats of the rally and has turned rallying into a family leisure sport, now racing with his daughter Fatimata.
GUEYES Malick
A second season full outing, he plans to go flat-out in his Evo7 in a bid for a podium slot.
