Rally Madeira Legend is on the roads tomorrow
It’s already tomorrow, 29th October, that the Rally Madeira Legend, organized by the Club Sports da Madeira will hit the roads in its second edition and within an international scope. Besides reliving the emotions of the past motorsports, this competition will show the performance of a great list of 45 enrolled renown drivers such as the former two times World Champion Massimo Biasion, the former two times Regional Champion Rui Conceição, and other names that need no introduction as Jorge Ortigão, a former Toyota driver, as well as the main drivers of this type of national competition.
The Organizing Committee of the event will also have an outstanding list of racing cars, Historic, Spirit and Legend, where a few “monsters” of group B will perform, a Lancia Delta S4 and an Audi Quattro S1 E2, as well as two WRC, all generations of the Ford Escort RS and iconic models as Renault 5 Turbo, an Opel Ascona 400, a Lancia Delta Integrale, different evolutions of an Audi Quattro and an Alpine Renault A110.
The competitors with the first two types of vehicles will compete with each other, while the competitors with Legend vehicles will just race as performance drivers, without any qualification.
The program for the first day of the competition has the first Administrative and Technical Checks, being held at Praça CR7, at 10 a.m. and the group photo will happen at the same place at 6 p.m. The start ceremony will happen at 7:12 p.m. at Avenida Arriaga, in front of the organizing club, as it used to happen for many years with Rali Vinho da Madeira. As for the sports component of a competition essentially driven for the exhibition of the vehicles, the two first special stages will be fought with a double passage through the 7,20 km of Palheiro Ferreiro, between São João Latrão and Terreiro da Luta, at 8:35 p.m. and 9:38 p.m.
