Paulo Nunes started the year “thinking about competing at the VSH with a Citroën Saxo, since it was certified, we ended up investing in being able to compete with the top racers in the RC4 group. Later on, the possibility to ride a Peugeot 208 R2 arose, and we ended up loving the experience in Faial. At Rally Vinho Madeira we will invest all our strengths, since we want to be the fastest in the group at the first leg and, after that, we will to try to hold up to the last day, so that we can win and become champions”.

Paulo Nunes is currently 50 years old and started racing back in the 1980’s. He rode a great variety of vehicles and got known soon for yielding the most of his cars as well as for his “low flight” driving. He has ridden a Citroën Saxo for many years now and was with this model that he became the 2016 VSH champion. In 2018 he won the single-brand competition at the wheel of a Citroën DS3 R1 and, this year, driving a Peugeot 208 R2 – only at Rally of Faial and at the Rally Vinho Madeira – he has won twice being currently the RC4 group second classified.
