He also won the gold medal in the individual ranking. In 2011, Simon Delestre was an integral part of the French teams in the FEI Nations Cup .

At the 2012 Summer Olympics he is part of the French team at the Olympic Games for the first time . In the first round of the team classification he was the unlucky person of the day. His reins tore before the last obstacle, so he was denied a clear lap. However, despite the broken reins, he managed to overcome the final obstacle with his horse Napoli du Ry in the second attempt . Two years later at the World Equestrian Games in Normandy , he won the silver medal with the French team.

At his first European championships in the age group of "riders", 2015 in Aachen , Delestre won the bronze medal in the individual with Ryan des Hayettes .
