In 2019, Artur Quintal took off “determined to apply myself to the fullest in order to become a champion. I have put this together with the RR Team’s experience in car preparation and Vítor Henriques’ collaboration. We are ahead at the RC4 group as well as at the Eng. Rafael Costa Trophy and, excluding our worst mark, we are also leading. It is good to lead because that builds in a healthy pressure that moves us to do more and better. At the Rally Vinho Madeira we cannot but have the goal of winning the legs of which we are at the command. Let it be a great Rally filled with a sense of fair play and a healthy competition”.

Artur Quintal was born in 1990 and has raced his first rally only five years ago. After debuting with a Toyota Starlet, he has already ridden a Citroën C2 R2 and, since around 2018, he has been at the driving wheel of a Peugeot 208 R2. Of his victories one may find many attributed to this group.
