Jean Ragnotti went well in both circuit racing and rallying, getting to a good F3 drive in 1973 and later pedalling a Renault 5 Turbo with success. Ragnotti was good on most surfaces - I remember watching him with a little Renault 5 GT on the RAC one year [1977?] getting the car to improbable speeds. Not quite in Elford's league but a pretty good all-rounder.
Bernard Beguin, in the late 70s and 80s a Porsche driver of considerable skill in French and international tarmac rallies, also drove one of the Ecurie Volants Shell works entered Martini MK12s in 1973 F3.
