Car – French Slalom Cup Final. A historic final for Christophe, Valentine and Coralie Rosé

It's a rare occurrence for a father and his two daughters to qualify for the Coupe de France final. What does that mean to you?
Christophe Rosé : It was one of the goals we had since October 2024. It was complicated to drive the same car in dual fitment with Coralie. We had to be strategic about calculating points to hope to be selected as a family. Everyone did their best. Our two cars allowed all three of us to qualify, we are delighted.
Valentine Rosé : This three-person participation is a unique adventure, never before seen in France. For the first time, three people from a family have qualified while remaining in the same league. It's a source of pride to experience the event together.
Coralie Rosé : It's a source of pride to have all three of us together for this final, which is taking place almost at home.
What is your assessment of your season?
CR : What can I say? Qualifying for the final is proof of a great slalom season this year. Plus, I'm lucky to have qualified for the hill final after having done a few regional races.
VR : Together, we had a great season. Personally, it was a new step, getting behind the wheel of my dad's favorite car. I'm happy and I thank my parents for giving me the opportunity to drive it. Thank you to everyone who supports us, especially those who will be making the trip this weekend. Without them, a three-way final wouldn't be possible.
Co.R .: This is my first season with the first sensations, the first pleasures. I started on board a prototype from the CM group. Then, I had the chance to share the wheel of dad's Formula 3. I was able to learn and evolve throughout the season to end up winning first place for women in the Grand Est League. This allowed me to qualify for this great final.
What is your goal for this slalom final?
CR : Already having a good time. I will do everything possible to place myself as well as possible. I will share the F3 with a motorcycle engine (1300 Suzuki Hayabusa) with Coralie who will be in dual-engine. I will do my best to perfect the car for Coralie, without forgetting Valentine's where my experience will be a plus.
For my part, I will help my two daughters position themselves at the top of the rankings. No matter my place, I am mainly there for them.
I also thank the team that will support us this weekend, running three drivers requires a lot of work.
VR : Have fun and enjoy the race without pressure. Being here, all three of us, is already a great reward. We're going to make this triple qualification a chance to have fun and improve together so that everyone can give their all and get the best possible result.
Co.R .: My main goal is to live this final to the fullest, to have fun, to give the best of myself for my final after my first slalom season. I also want to have a good time with my family and friends. Everyone will focus on their race but if we need help, we will be there for each other to help each other.
Other qualifiers : Yannick Lauber, Loïc Hébinger, Alexandre Bechler, Julien Ritter, Sébastien Murat, Olivier Sacchi. As well as regional qualifiers from other leagues: Mickaël Schmitt, Candy and Lilian Forny.
