Renaud Savoya is European Champion 2010

Three is a magic number and today Renaud ‘The Shark’ Savoya entered the sport’s history books as he notched up his third consecutive EFRA 1:8 Off Road European Championship. The 30th running of these championships, the French ace won here in Portugal from Robert Batlle, the man whom he took the title from back in 2008. Having struggled by his standards in qualifying, ending up only fourth, Savoya bounced back on the day it counted most.
