SANTIAGO CARNICER CONQUERS THE TITLE OF SPANISH RALLY CHAMPION TT 2023 IN CUENCA
The province has gathered thousands of fans who have crowded all the sections. The 2023 Spanish Off-Road Rally Champion came out of Cuenca in a complicated navigation test with a lot of mud in the terrain.
The driver from Castellón, who has been very regular and has achieved good marks throughout the National Championship, has done a rally closely observing his rivals and, without making any mistakes, has finished in fourth place and has achieved the necessary points to be crowned Champion of Spain 2023.
For the newly crowned Champion of Spain, "despite the mud I felt comfortable throughout the race. My goal from the start was not to make mistakes to get the necessary points to win the Spanish Championship. The Rallye de Cuenca has the best fans of all the championships; more than 400 kilometers were full of followers. And, of course, the route was beautiful", said Santiago Carnicer in Cuenca.
With regard to the rally, the victory went to Enrique Reyes and Fina Román (VM Competición Ordaz Tomas).
The second to reach the finish line was Carlos Vento from Madrid, co-driven by Carlos Ruiz (BRP Can-Am Maverick XRS) with a time of 6:43:33.7, and this morning they opened the track for many kilometers. For the driver the navigation has been very complicated, "but the road book was perfect, and Carlo has been perfect, very concentrated, and without making any mistakes. He is a great co-driver, and I think that 80 percent of the test is his. And the signaling is the best I've seen in the whole Spanish Championship; it has given me time to enjoy breathtaking views. I loved the race". And the third classified was José María Naranjo (JMP JMPR T3) who reached the finish line just 2 seconds behind the second classified.
For his part, Victor Alijas, the head of the race, said that "we are already starting to prepare for the Rally TT Cuenca 2024, which next year will be 10 years old, so it will be full of surprises". In addition, Alijas thanked "the very positive feedback from the pilots. They have told me that they have felt very comfortable in the rally and in our community, and that is very important for all our Organization".
