Once again, Filipe Freitas will race in this Rali Vinho da Madeira edition behind the wheel of a Porsche 991 GT3, with which he is planning to “be ahead of the RGT. Without considering the absolute standings, we will try to race as much to the finishing line as possible and, as we have been achieving in the previous championships, perform for the spectators who will be watching us on the roads. In terms of challenges, if the temperatures keep on rising we might have a problem with overheating of the tires. This will probably be the highest challenge, to manage well the tires. 
49 years old, Freitas has debuted in rallies in 1998 with a Citroen AX GTI. In the following year, he chose t be behind the wheel of a Citroen Saxo, a car that made him shine in the single brand competition. He is one of the competitors that has driven a wide range of vehicles and has obtained excellent standings with cars such as Renault Clio RS, Citroen Saxo Kit-Car, Opel Astra Kit-Car, VW Golf Kit-Car or Renault Clio S1600. He won his first absolute standing title in 2013 with a 
Mitsubishi Lancer Evo X and was Champion in 2016 with a Porsche 997 GT3. In 2021, he is in the 7th position of the championship, after having been in the 4th in Ribeira Brava and withdrew in Machico.
