    As expected, 'Rali Serras de Fafe e Felgueiras' was a great event to spectate with lots of good cars and crews doing their best to entertain a large crowd. Despite his late off, Gryazin was always spectacular and deserved the win but it’s fair to say that Araújo also deserves it as he was the only one giving Gryazin a proper figth (Araújo only started to ease, for CPR points sake, after the morning loop). Guys like A.Heller, Teodósio or Magalhăes occassionaly managed to impress but most of the time were a step down from the top2. Linnamae, a young Estonian runing Fafe for the second time, was flying in 2wd category during the first day but retired on the second (tech issues?) leaving Bell, Almeida and Nunes fighting for the win; Nunes, after a large time without rallying due to a traffic accident, eventually dominate his rivals getting a fantastic win. Nice return also of former national champ Adruzilo Lopes, being the best Gr.N with a Evo IX while the regional event was won by Simőes on a Evo VI.

    4. José Pedro Fontes/Inęs Ponte - Citroen C3 R5; +3:22.00
    5. Pedro Heller/Marc Marti - Volkswagen Polo R5; +4:17.50

    Magalhaes not very impressive again.

    Gryazin small mistake is understandable; he was here mainly to get more used to the car limits and kept pushing despite his advantage to Araújo. Magalhăes complained about not being able to get a proper setup with the new specs; hope he can do better at Açores.

    After a long break, since Rali Serras de Fafe in February, the 2020 CPR will be resumed this weekend at Castelo Branco, with many changes due to Covid safety rules; a shorter route, no SSS or ceremonial start/finish and spectator restrictions at the stages or at the service park are expected to be the new normal on post-lockdown events. Still, a nice entry list with several contenders for the overall and different classes wins.

    For now, after SS5 Castelo Branco, Pedro Antunes is 9th overall

    Big problems for Pedro Almeida though, I guess mechanical

    I’m not there but from what I’ve heard Almeida went off on SS5 and yesterday he lost time changing a punctured wheel; Antunes times are mindblowing!

    Btw, nice figth for the overall win, with Magalhăes trying to catch Araújo. Gutted for Fontes issues; he’s always fast in Castelo Branco.
