Ricardo Teodósio returns, with a Hyundai i20N Rally2, to Rali Vinho da Madeira, a competition in which he wants "the best possible result, the best ever. It's not an easy race. I don't even include the last rally winners in my accounts. I want to be in the fight to win the Portuguese Championship. My team-mate, Kris Meeke, doesn't know the rally well but he always has to be considered.

We came to Machico to see how we were doing and things weren't working as we wanted. We kept improving and by the end we were close to José Pedro Fontes, but still far from the frontrunners. We have to get back to the good form of Machico and know how to wait. I also have to make sure I ride "straight". And, once again, I'd like to thank our sponsors and the many fans I have for their support".

Ricardo Teodósio is 47 years old and made his rallying debut in 2001 with a Mitsubishi Lancer Evo III. In several versions of the Japanese model, he quickly became known for his spectacular driving and, among several class titles, he was South regional champion in 2010 and 2011. He was national champion in 2019 with Skoda Fabia R5 and 2021 with Skoda Fabia Rally2 Evo. He currently represents Hyundai in Portugal and is second in the national championship.
