Miguel Nunes goes in to this Rally Vinho da Madeira determined to "give it our best. In Calheta we obtained a good result, but since then we have been working and also working on our shape so that we can become even stronger. It is very difficult to define a goal for the final result since the competition is strong, but we do want to fight for the first positions. We won't be starting under any type of pressure, and, also, we have a great car, in which we will check if the small changes made were effective.
