== CDF 2007 ==

Because of his success in Norway, Florent entered the CDF of 2007 as one of the two clear favourites to win. It was expected that the overall win would either go to Pierre or him. The rivalry between the two became clear from the very start as they faced eachother in the final of the first event, which was the TT tournament. This final took place on one of his favourite tracks, KB1, but the pressure got to him as he hit some weed and ended in 2nd place with Pierre grabbing the first gold medal of that CDF with a clean race. Florent made his candidacy for the overall win clear early on though. In the Match Race tournament he faced Pierre in the final again, but this time the gold medal went to Florent after a convincing 11-7 in his favour. This was his first ever gold medal on a CDF. The Battle Mode tournament saw another Pierre versus Florent final. The level on display was extremely high and to this day Florent claims that the level he reached in this match was the highest he has ever reached as an SMK player. Despite Pierre’s strong resistance and fine form, Florent proved to be an unstoppable force from now on, winning the tournament in style with a 11-4 victory. Florent was comfortably in the lead in the overall rankings now, with his best mode (GP) still ahead. Only a miracle could stop him from winning his first CDF from that point onwards. When Florent reached the semi final of the GP tournament (Pierre was knocked out at this point), he was already certain of the overall victory. But as a true champion he gave it his best once more to also claim the title in the GP final in a thrilling early morning match against Nicolas Haufmann (also known as El Nico on the boards). Nicolas could not prevent Florent from reaching a landslide 5-1 victory, meaning that Florent succesfully crowned his CDF with another gold medal. Rarely had the CDF seen such a display of dominance from one karter, winning all the multiplayer modes with big scorelines plus reaching the final of the TT event as well.

In daily life Florent is studying to become either a physical education (PE) teacher or an overall teacher at elementry school. He studied 5 years in Angers, 1 year in Le Mans and from 8 September 2008 onwards he will study 1 year in his city of birth, Rennes. One thing is certain, whoever his students are going to be, they don’t stand even the smallest chance of winning when they play against their teacher in SMK, or Tennis for that matter…
