  • Portugal De Regresso Ao Mundial Gronholm Contra Loeb Armindo Araújo Estreia Wrc Espectáculo Anima Estádio Do Algarve
    Nº 1 de 29 de Março de 2007 PORTUGAL DE REGRESSO AO MUNDIAL GRONHOLM CONTRA LOEB ARMINDO ARAÚJO ESTREIA WRC ESPECTÁCULO ANIMA ESTÁDIO DO ALGARVE Vodafone Rali de Portugal O salto (tão) aguardado Foram precisos seis anos e muitas diligências para que, de novo, os ávidos espectadores portugueses tivessem a oportunidade de ver de perto os melhores pilotos do Campeonato do Mundo de Ralis. Aquele que já foi, por várias vezes, considerado o melhor rali do Mundo está de regresso à elite da modalidade, com o Algarve a assumir, agora, o papel de outrora desempenhado por Arganil, Fafe e demais catedrais do Rali de Portugal. Designado por Vodafone Rali de Portugal e a cargo do ACP Sport, a quinta ronda do calendário 2007 é, também, a primeira disputada em terra no continente europeu. Por entre o apurado trabalho desenvolvido continua na página seguinte Opinião Armindo Araújo Sem euforias Na sua estreia no Mundial de Ralis aos comandos de um World Rally Car, Armindo Araújo guarda os pés bem assentes na terra. Para o tetra-Campeão Nacional e participante no PWRC, o objectivo passa por melhorar troço após troço sem entrar em loucuras e tentar chegar onde não pode. Ainda assim, o público nacional espera muito de Armindo Araújo. Aqui fica a sua opinião: 1. Depois dos testes que fiz, sei que tenho um carro rápido, mas o que importa é no dia da prova comparar com a concorrência e, aí sim, ver onde realmente nos situamos em relação aos adversários. Sei que vou estava longe de me inspirar confiança. Os pneus foram substituídos e o para uma prova repleta de pilotos experi- carro ficou com um comportamento mais civilizado.

  • At the Foot of the Northern Face
    Uddeholm Swedish Rally (February 3rd-5th) At the foot of the Northern face After a fantastic result in one of the most challenging Monte Carlos in years, the Kronos Total Citroën World Rally Team finds itself at the foot of the Northern face of the championship. For this untypical event, which the Belgian team urges to discover, one 2006-Xsara will be entered for the two times World Champions Sébastien Loeb and Daniel Elena, and a second one for their team- mates Xavier Pons and Carlos Del Barrio. Like in Monte Carlo, Daniel Sordo and Marc Marti will also be present. The Junior World Champion will compete behind the wheel of a 2005-Xsara, rented by Kronos Racing to the Spaniard. The Swedish Rally remains – and especially since the Southern focus of the Monte Carlo – the only real winter round of the World Rally calendar. Taking place in the area of Hagfors (360 km West of Stockholm), the rally route goes through the tracks of the Värmland province. The gentle countryside of the region means that tight corners are a rarity. This leads to high speeds on the stages, which only slow down at junctions. When the tough Nordic winter arrives, the snow which has been swept from the roads builds some compact and securing banks on the sides. The sheet ice offers a consistent surface and the cars equipped with around 380 studs on each tyre, go sideways supported by the thousands of fans gathered in the stages. The Swedish rally lies amongst the competitors’ favourite events when all these ideal conditions are met.
