Luxembourg driver wins 14 of 15 special stages and beats Mike Coppens by 38.1 seconds in commanding TER victory
Grégoire Munster delivered an outstanding performance to win the Rallye du Chablais, claiming victory in the TER – Tour European Rally at the wheel of his Hyundai i20N Rally2, co-driven by Maxime Andernack.
Across three days of competition in the Swiss cantons of Vaud and Valais, under warm summer conditions, the Luxembourg driver was the fastest on 14 of the 15 special stages.
Munster sealed the victory with a margin of 38.1 seconds over Switzerland’s Mike Coppens, driving a Škoda Fabia RS Rally2, who repeated his second-place finish from last year in Aigle.
The 2025 Swiss champion, alongside co-driver Cristophe Roux, finished ahead of another all-Swiss crew in a sister car, Florian Gonon and Frédéric Hugon.
Nicholas Lathion and Morgane Apothéloz completed the rally in fourth place, followed by Yoan Loeffler and Aurélien Chiapello, and Pascal Perroud with Charlène Greppin, all three crews competing in Škoda Fabia RS Rally2 cars.
Seventh overall in the TER classification was Lagrue with a Citroën C3 Rally2, finishing ahead of the winners of the TER Junior in Switzerland, the Germans René Noller and Anna-Maria Seidl in a Peugeot 208 Rally4.
In TER 2WD, victory went to David Papilloud and Bruno dos Santos with their Peugeot 208 Rally4, who closed 9th in TER, ahead of Thibault Maret and Louis Louka in a Citroën C3 Rally2, who completed the overall Series top ten.
The TER – Tour European Rally will return in mid-August in Lithuania for the Rokiškio Grand Rally, where competitors will once again fight for points in what promises to be another exciting round, this time on gravel.
