Yup, but French or not, the symmetry group of the Standard Model drops out as the unitary symmetries of more or less the most simple noncommutative geometry.
The preprint at
hep-th/9501077 (Google this, and the page rank 1 entry is a link to download the paper in pdf)
and the papers it cites (all in English by their titles, at least, including those by Connes) lay it out fair and square.
