A breathtaking backdrop, treacherous tarmac, and a true battle of seconds: The second round of the ADAC Opel GSE Rally Cup 2026 delivered a spectacular showdown in Gérardmer, France! From the very beginning, the rally turned into an electrifying duel between German championship leader Timo Schulz and French hotshot Tom Dufour. Both drivers pushed the new #OpelMokka GSE Rally to its absolute limits, impressively demonstrating the immense potential of the new eRally5 generation. 🏁 The Highlights: 👊 High-Stakes duel: Coming off an opening victory at the ELE Rally, Timo Schulz and co-driver Maresa Lade faced intense pressure from local hero Tom Dufour (with co-pilot Alex Dubois). Dufour's aggressive driving style pushed both teams to the limit, leading to mistakes on both sides. 👊 The British triumph: Capitalizing on this with a flawless, consistent performance, the Welsh duo Ioan Lloyd and Sion Williams secured the victory at Rally Vosges Grand-Est! 👊 History made: Congratulations to German female rally youngster Claire Schönborn, who became the second woman in the history of our electric cup to climb onto the podium! 🥉 Follow Opel Motorsport on Instagram for more rally content: https://lnkd.in/gr-u7fA8 #OpelRally #OpelGSE #OMGGSE #motorsport
