The FEI Driving World Cup™ was launched in 2001, and Bordeaux was one of the events on that inaugural series!

The FEI World Cup Driving for 4-in-hand horses takes place exclusively in Europe, with 7 qualifying stages reserved for the top 10 drivers in the world.

These drivers choose their competitions in groups of 5.

It is important to note that a driver can only participate in 4 stages, and only the best 3 results are taken into account.

Competitors who earn points at each stage and the top 6 in the overall standings qualify for the final at the Jumping International de Bordeaux, which takes place on the evening of Saturday, February 3rd and Sunday, February 4th.
