The 63rd edition of the Rali Vinho da Madeira showcases a few changes comparing with the previous years. Quite missed is the return of the Avenida do Mar Special Stage Show – International Business Centre of Madeira, which starts the itinerary on Thursday afternoon, 4th August. Competed in the south and north part of the Avenue, with a passage through other roads in the borderline, this special stage will have this year an extension of 2.18 km and has its time set at 19:30 hours.
Throughout the last few decades, this Special Stage Show has been gathering, despite its live coverage by the local televisions channel, many tens of million spectators who can’t resist the magic of the evolution of the teams and their competing cars in an urban scenario, with its downtown surroundings.
 In its earlier years, Rali Vinho da Madeira has always chosen competitive roads in this área of the city where the event is set.
