For more than 30 years an offroad passion without borders in Friuli The Automobile Club d’Italia wishes the return of the rainbow title

Crossed challenges between the Italian and Hungarian Championship and the FIA European Cup

Thursday is the last day to send the fateful coupon to the Fuoristrada Club Pordenone 4x4. The provisional list already sees many important Italian and foreign names with the Polish Maluszynski and the Portuguese Ferreira on the shields

Never say never, but so far no extra-eu participation seems to be able to endanger the record holder. This leaves clear field for new suitors and maybe someone could bring back the passion, here in Pordenone

In May the Spanish Extremadura took place, winned by the Portuguese Ferreira - second in the FIA ranking, after the Polish Bialkowski Schiumarini leader Acisport after the Artugna Race and the Colline Metallifere

This year's competition is valid also for the Hungarian championship. Already good feedback from the enrollments, that are closing on June 20.

After the celebrations and the book on the 30th anniversary, Fuoristrada Club 4x4 Pordenone is preparing for the next challenge with never tamed enthusiasm. Mauro Tavella was confirmed in the Cross Country Rally FIA Commission

In memory of Kenjiro Shinozuka

Buttò and Castagnera, Bonetto and Tinaburri, Manocchi and Pietranera can aim for the big coup by starting the Italian season for now without the champion Ventura

The Italian off-road vehicle opens up to rally cars in the R5/N5 version with the appropriate upgrades and so De Luna, Prosdocimo and Carniello from Pordenone will be at the start on a Skoda Fabia and Camporese from Padova on a Volkswagen Polo.

The driver, despite eleven championships, remains as hungry as a rookie

The reigning champion with the Vitara T1 has the first concrete chance to win the Baja di Primavera which so far has only given him one podium among production vehicles

Morra, from Novara,is looking for further stimulation after cups and placements in the TH trophies

There is still time until Monday 11th but the feedback for the Italian Baja di Primavera is already very positive which opens the Italian Cross Country Baja and SSV season

Three consecutive successes for Ventura among the SSV with the Quaddy Yamaha, but his candidacy for the fourth seal is still uncertain. After the victories of Galletti, Alfano and Mengozzi, the most uncertain challenge seems to be that between the Cross Country prototypes

The Italian Baja di Primavera reawakens the enthusiasm of Buttò and Allegranzi, Castellani and Zoppellaro, ready for the challenge on the dirt roads of the foothills

The Cross Country and SSV championship starts again from the Italian Baja di Primavera

Full of energy after the 30th anniversary celebrations The Artugna Race is scheduled for March, an Italian Baja in European format in July and the new Stella in September. Tavella: “Enhancing the area is our mission”
