During qualifying, Joyca was involved in a major accident at the exit of the Dunlop curve which severely damaged his car.[7] The mechanics managed to repair the car and the videographer was able to start the race. He reacts: "I got there, in the big Dunlop of death, there's a wall that's a little scary, well I took it."[7]
In 2022, the third position trophy was given by Matthieu Vaxiviere, the second position by Bigflo & Oli and the winning trophy by Jamel Debbouze.
In 2022, the event broadcast live on Twitch gathered just over one million concurrent viewers, becoming the most viewed French stream and one of the top 10 most viewed streams on the platform.[11]
