MISSISSAUGA, Ont. – The third edition of the 2022 Sentra Cup Magazine is out now, featuring highlights from Nissan Sentra Cup’s weekend at Circuit Mont-Tremblant.

The action-packed weekend saw Simon Charbonneau and Alexandre Fortin each take a victory. Under a hot summer sun, Saturday morning saw young Justin Arseneau take another pole position, just over four tenths of a second ahead of championship leader Simon Charbonneau. Olivier Bédard followed in third place. Bédard, a three-time series champion during the Nissan Micra Cup era, made his debut in Sentra and immediately climbed into the front runners. Alexandre Fortin and Valérie Limoges followed.

On Sunday, under the threat of rain, the second qualifying and race were just as intense. Once again, Justin Arseneau took pole position, ahead of Simon Charbonneau, Alexandre Fortin, Valérie Limoges and Daniel Fortin, Alexandre's father. In the race, a small contact on the first lap between Arseneau and Fortin opened the door to Charbonneau, Limoges and Fortin for victory. The three drivers swapped positions several times. Charbonneau finally won with only 187 thousandths of a second over Valérie Limoges.

Fans can tune in to read all the race weekend highlights in the latest edition of the Nissan Sentra Cup Magazine (attached). The magazine includes an interview with Olivier Bédard that made his debut in the Nissan Sentra Cup at Circuit Mont-Tremblant.

The Circuit Mont-Tremblant race weekend is the third of six events in what is shaping up to be a successful season of the Nissan Sentra Cup. The next event in the 2022 Nissan Sentra Cup series event will be at the Circuit de Trois-Rivières, Quebec.
