Vítor Sá returned this year to motor-racing and, for him, “the beginning of the season was a complicated one. We missed the first leg and had to build up, from zero, an entire structure. We worked a lot and have been getting better. We had to face strong competitors but our work has made handling the car a lot easier and also made me feel more comfortable. The balance, so far, is quite positive. Rally Vinho Madeira is quite a difficult one and has to be raced with a focused mind. There is still a lot to learn and this year we will have many more contestants in our class. We will try to race fast and, if possible, win in all categories in which we may be enrolled”.

Vítor Sá is 54 years old and he debuted in motor-racing at the end of the 80’s of last century. Holding eleven regional titles, he was, for a long time, synonym with rallies in Madeira. Winner of the 2004 Rally Vinho Madeira, he was also the 1992 and 2011 champion, as well as, uninterruptedly, between 1999 and 2007. After a long career interregnum, he is back to racing in 2019 and is, along with his Citroën DS3 R3T, one of the island’s liveliest competitors in two driving-wheels competitions.
