Painful failure: Lemke fights through Rallye in France

The German motors for motifs Christian Lemke fought valuable points at the ADAC E-Rallye Cup in France. On the occasion of the 27th Rallye Coeur de France, the couple, consisting of Lemke and his passenger Jan-Eric Bemmann, faced a challenging route in the Vendome region. Despite a promising start in the Powerstage, which brought them additional championship points, the event was not without technical difficulties.

The rough conditions of the rally represented a real challenge. Bemmann described the difficulties of the journey to France and the first day of the event, on which the team was initially in the penultimate place. With a special obstacle, the so -called ramp jump, there was a serious technical defect: the drive shaft dissolved from the gearbox and the further course of the test became impossible. Immediately before the goal, just 100 meters from the end, the duo had to cancel the exam, which was punished with a ten -minute penalty. Lemke was disappointed with the misfortune, if the technical glüCl had been on her side, they could have struggled for the overall victory.

resistance and teamwork

After this setback, the service team, under the direction of Christian Damsch, mobilized all their strength and carried out the necessary repairs in an intensive night shift. The following day, Lemke was able to show what potential it was in. In the first exams of the next stage, he easily kept with the best drivers and set a new record on the Powerstage, gaining five valuable championship points. This impressive performance brought Lemke and his team on a motivating course.

Although the overall ranking will be difficult to fight, Lemke remains optimistic with a view to the last season race. "First of all, it is important to congratulate Luca Pröglhof. We won't let the heads hang. This failure can hit everyone," said Lemke. He is currently in fourth place in the overall ranking, whereas Pröglhof Pröglhof was able to ensure the title prematurely through his second place in Vendome. The final of the ADAC Opel Electric Rally Cup is scheduled for 19th and 20th October 2024 in Hauzenberg, near Passau, where Lemke theoretically has the chance to improve to third place.

The rally in central France not only offered exciting challenges, but also the opportunity for the drivers to demonstrate their skills and to gain important experiences for the future. Lemke's committed teamwork and determination show that he and his passenger will continue to do everything possible to get the best out of the upcoming competitions.
