João Silva continues to shine in the classification reserved to the users of two-wheel drive vehicles. The Peugeot 208 Rally4 driver has an advantage of more than one minute over Vítor Sá, who is second in a Citroën DS3 R3T. Usually the leader of the class, Rui Jorge Fernandes withdrew during the fourth section with mechanical issues in his Renault Clio R3T. The third place in the category is occupied by Miguel Caires with a Renault Clio Rally4.
In what concerns the classification reserved to the competitors of the Regional Championship of this sports, Alexandre Camacho leads, followed by Miguel Nunes and Filipe Freitas, despite the difficulties of the latter with the "resource" tyres fitted in his Porsche 997 GT3 and the difficulty of use of this vehicle in the weather conditions felt in the second passage through Cidade de Santana. Gil Freitas, with a Hyundai i20 R5, is fourth. Another highlight on Friday was the good time achieved by Adruzilo Lopes, eighth in a Toyota Yaris GR, in a qualifying that caused many changes of positions.
