Baja d’Autunno, T2 at the last assault



02 November 2017

Obligatory victory for Bordonaro while Alfano just needs a placement And for the third step of the podium, Lops, Ananasso and Lolli are at stake

 

Never say never, as the eternal James Bond says. At the Baja d'Autunno (11/12 November) the last seasonal challenge for the Production title (Group T2) of the Italian Cross Country Rally Championship will be staged and uncertainty reigns supreme at the top of the standings, although Andrea Alfano with Carmen Marseille at the notes he presents himself with a conspicuous advantage (266 points against 235.5) compared to his main opponent Alfio Bordonaro sailed by Marcello Bono.

 

After five of the six 2017 races, the two challengers also have the Suzuki Challenge at stake where the gap (257 against 233) is smaller due to a different regulation that does not add points for just participation and instead also provides for a selective sector identified as a "power stage"

 

Now the last act in Valvasone will have a coefficient of 3 putting on the plate 78 points for the winner, 57 for the second, 48 for the third and so on up to 6 for the tenth finish. Arithmetic says that if Bordonaro wins, Alfano will need third place, while he will only need to finish sixth in the event of a rival's place of honor.

 

And who could at least clear up the cards a little? The "third inconvenience" Margherita Lops, out of the top games (165.5 in the Italian and 125 in the Challenge) but forced to make a good result to prevent the possible comeback to the third step of the podium of Giuseppe Ananasso (127) and Andrea Lolli (120). All at the wheel of the Grand Vitara derived from the series, “agile and resistant, good for any terrain” as the mantra of Emmetre Racing says.

 

The Baja d'Autunno on the right side of the Tagliamento - 3 laps of 25 km on Saturday, 2 on Sunday in the opposite direction - therefore prepares fireworks and a show for the final rush of the Cross Country Rally flag, never as loaded as this year of suggestions and subscribers thanks to the innovations introduced by Aci Sport, with further developments that will be unveiled at the Mosole quarry on the evening of Saturday 11 November.
