History[]
Having the information that the Italians are training on a circuit near Marseille, Sylvain goes there with Eddy to attract their attention and manages, thanks to his driving and the gain in power brought by Samia, to obtain an invitation to a private party. In order to gather information, he infiltrates this evening with the municipal police team, but Eddy has also invited himself to the evening. However, only Sylvain and Eddy are on the spot, the other police officers being distracted in their corner (Sandrine at the buffet and Michel on stage seducing a girl). They discover that the gang is targeting the largest diamond in the world which will be exhibited at MuCEUM and which will be brought in by helicopter, and that the two National Police officers are corrupted by the gang. Eddy having been spotted, the duo are captured but manage to escape, not without the help of the municipal police.
The day of the arrival of the diamond, the gang of Italians uses a drone armed with missiles to hijack the helicopter, in order to bring the diamond on a yacht in the creeks. Sylvain and Eddy are then chased by Toni Dog, driving in a Lamborghini Aventador, as well as by corrupt agents. If the latter are successfully stopped by the municipal police (Sandrine having thrown herself on the hood of their car to neutralize them), the taxi has difficulty in sowing the gang, whether on the highway or on the steep roads creeks. By calling Samia, the latter reveals the location of a button allowing the taxi to use nitro. On seeing the yacht anchored in the cove, Sylvain throws himself from a cliff using the nitro. The 407 being, like the old 406, also equipped with wings, manages to hover to crash into the yacht - while the Lamborghini, stopped at the edge of the precipice, is in a dangerously precarious balance, preventing it from s 'escape. The diamond is recovered, the Italians arrested.
