A popular and spectacular weekend at Dijon-Prenois!
The Historic Tour x GP Camions Dijon once again fully confirmed its success, attracting 22,150 spectators over the course of the weekend.

Sporting, festive and popular, the event established itself as one of the highlights of the calendar at the Dijon-Prenois circuit.
