From 20 to 22 March, Petrolicious in partnership with Reservoir Watch will inaugurate its first Petrolicious car rally in France “Drive Tastefully: A Tribute to Le Mans”.

Followed by 900K people on Facebook and 679K on Instagram, Petrolicious founded in 2019 a “members club”, wishing to bring its community together through various events around the world.

A CLASSIC RALLY LOADED WITH HISTORY FOR A CIRCUIT OF LEGEND

Petrolicious wants to pay homage to Le Mans through a rally starting from Crubilé Sport, a well-known dispensary who prepare the most legendary racing Porsches.

Finally, participants will be invited to stay at the Hôtel de France, known for hosting the greatest drivers and teams that have raced at Le Mans.

The next day, the 20 teams from 8 different countries will reach the Allier passing by the sublime Haute Vienne and Loir et Cher landscapes, marking a stop at the château d’Ainay le Vieil. The last day, before having lunch in one of the most beautiful Vallée de la Loire castles, the teams will visit the Romorantin’s Matra museum, which houses cars that raced in Le Mans.
