EURO RUNNER LAUNCHES SCHEME TO OFFSET RALLYING EMISSIONS

-

European championsh­ip contender Yoann Bonato is doing his bit for the environmen­t by launching a tree-planting scheme.

The three-time French champion will plant one new tree for every stage he wins in this year’s

ERC aboard his Citroen C3 Rally2.

Bonato, 37, said: “As a rally driver, you can’t lock yourself in a bubble hoping to be able to drive for as long as possible without taking a sustainabl­e approach.

“For several seasons, I have been asking myself the question: ‘what can I do?’ One stage victory for one tree is a small step for the environmen­t but a big step for our passion.”
