Hello, thanks for the answer Yes, that's where we get our ip addresses. As you will see in the following link, they are located in Spain and direct connection in Spain.

Do you think you can then ask OVH to reflect that location in GeoIP DBs ? (like Maxmind and/or others ? ) Having GeoIP lookup showing something different than what we'd enter at the mirrors DB level would confuse our mirror crawler sripts and the produced mirrorlists too.

I'm afraid that does not prove much. That RIPE entry only tells which organization is responsible for the IP addresses, and where that organization is located.
I have a virtual server in France (Gandi), and ping times for your IP address is around 5ms. Ping times to other Spanish CentOS mirrors vary, but the minimum seemed to be 25ms.
Here's a traceroute from Gandi:

In effect, this means your mirror server is actually in France even if the controlling organization is in Spain.
We can still list your mirror, but it should be listed as being in France as opposed to being in Spain. The purpose of the list of mirrors is not to specify where the controlling organization is, but where the actual mirror server is located. This is to reduce the amount of international data transfer and to give the fastest results for CentOS users. It does not make sense to make Spanish users use a mirror located in France, if mirrors located in Spain are also available.
Please let us know if you have opposing views about this, otherwise we'd prefer to change the listed country of your mirror to France.

I think information from RIPE is informational only, but your real server is still located on france.
Here is a traceroute from Cogent (ES, Madrid).
