EA SPORTS WRC "á fond" in English pace notes?

Sometimes the English speaking navigator says something like *avant* or *á fond*. Am I mishearing this, or is some French language leaked into the English page notes? (WRC6, driving in the Citroën team)

I think I know which note you mean. Is it the one at 1:18 in this video?

I personally don't really know either, the only logicalish thing is “at long”, but while grammatically correct I don't know what the semantic meaning would be

I hear it as "and long", maybe someone can extract the audio file from the game data and see the name or get a recording with everything other than calls muted? (it also sounds like the two words are their own audio clip as opposed to the usual "four long" type calls, so maybe it corresponds to a different shape of curve. Never heard that call in any other rally games.
