A name to look out for...
Dumas is a former winner of the Volant Elf and remained an Elf-backed driver until the end of 1997. That year he finished third in the French Formula Renault Championship but the intense competition for Elf money meant that it was not enough and ended up without a drive and did not reappear until he joined the Formula Palmer Audi series in 1999. In 2000 he was in French Formula 3 and last year started racing in the European F3000 series, while also competing in GT races in Japan with Toyota, thanks to his links with Comas. This year he has continued to race in sports car events in addition to his F3000 program.
