THE NISSAN CUP WILL START ANOTHER SEASON AT CIRCUIT DU MONT-TREMBLANT FROM MAY 26 TO 28
By Piero Facchin
Summer means good weather, and it’s also time to hit the track here in Québec. The Nissan Sentra Cup resumes its championship, 2023 edition at Circuit du Mont-Tremblant from May 26 to 28 during the Spring Classic. This will be the third season for this popular Canadian series and the ninth for the cars that took part in 2015, namely the Nissan Micra Cup.
Last year, for the first time in the history of the series, driver Valerie Limoges won the championship after a hard-fought season.
Nissan Canada President Steve Milette says this season has all the elements to be a success again: “I’m thrilled that the Cup is entering its ninth season and is still going strong. Like everyone at Nissan Canada, I’m looking forward to seeing Valerie Limoges defend her title and her number one. This year’s list of contenders seems bigger than ever and with twelve races again spread over six events, I really think the fans will be excited.”
Several new drivers will be in the field, including 15-year-old Vincent Lalande, who comes from a motorcycle background, while other drivers will take the leap from the Micra Cup to the Sentra Cup. This is the case for Marie-Soleil Labelle who, with a strong progression, intends to take her place within this superior series.
The promoter of the series, Jacques Deshaies, says he is “happy to see the 26 registered drivers” and he expects “hot battles, which will result in an excellent show on the track”.
To increase the feeling of belonging to the Nissan brand, owners, regardless of the model they drive on the road every day, are invited to the event free of charge. All they have to do is register on the Nissan Sentra Cup website via this link: www.coupesentra.com/inscriptionevenement.
