A huge disappointment
« The announcement of april to be obliged to delay and then cancel the championship races has been a hard decision after having worked to offer to fans a beautiful competition, with 2 new promotion categories.
The cancelation announcement of 3 of the 4 races of the championship is a reel shock for my team and I. Since 17 of march and the beginning of the confinement, we have worked without stop to find solutions and organise the championship, with FFSA, partners and all the AFOR team".
