There was another one-two for the works Alpine-Renaults at Montlhéry in the Coupes du Salon meeting. The two Alpines of Patrick Depailler and Jean-Pierre Jabouille were fastest in practice from the Martini MW7 of Jacques Coulon and the Brabham BT 35 of Pierre-François Rousselot.
The Alpines took an easy victory with Jabouille leading Depailler home by 0.8 secs despite having to drive on the ignition switch due to a sticking throttle, Lafosse’s Brabham BT35 was third ahead of Christian Ethuin in his Tecno-Renault.
