I began working with Citroën Racing in 2012 as part of the team competing in the World Rally Championship (WRC). Initially working with Zone Rouge and later with Éric Bellegarde, I translated various official communications related to the team’s involvement in the WRC. Translations were mainly of race reports, press releases and web articles but also included some sub-titling, most notably on “19 Allée des Marronniers”, a film celebrating the remarkable career of nine-time world rally champion Sébastien Loeb and covering his final full season in the WRC in 2012. Although Citroën Racing withdrew from elite rallying in 2019, I continued to work on English language content for the team in other championships and competitions until 2022.
Here are a few examples of translations completed by espace anglais for the brand over the years:
Un week-end exigeant pour la C3 Rally2 / A demanding weekend for the C3 Rally2
C3 Rally2 intouchable sur les routes croates / C3 Rally2 unbeatable in Croatia
C3 Rally2 mise à l'épreuve / C3 Rally2 put to the test
100eme victoire de Citroën en WRC / Historic 100th WRC win for Citroen
