Blind Man Drives at the Ypres Rally…!
On June 19thnext, at the Special Shakedown event during the Ypres Rally in Belgium, Alain Penasse, director of the Rally, decided to invite the blind Belgian driver Luc Costermans to show what a visually impaired driver can do with a good co-pilot.
Luc will be driving with the generous help of Skoda Import and Total, and with the patronage of great names of the Rally such as Michèle Mouton, Jean Pierre Nicolas, Ari Vatanen, Guy Frequelin and Daniel Elena. The FIA boss, Jean Todt, has also given his support. Luc will have at his side as co-pilot his friend David Barattucci during the 4.5 km special event in Nieuwkerke on a very narrow country road.
Luc will be sporting the colours of our website on his car.
Watch out!
