Fontes still is recovering from the Rally Portugal crash and Barbosa in the Fabia could not make points in this rally. Same for João Barros but it is said that he is going to widraw from rallying. Elias Barros and Joaquim Alves still have their cars in the workshop after crashes and Moura just went there for 3 km! Next year hopefuly will be better.
