The X Rally team finished the first and longest special of their 25th Sertões, which left from Petrolina, in Pernambuco, passed through Raso da Catarina, in Bahia and returned to Petralina, traveling a total of 674 kilometers, 299 in connection and 375 timed, with their two Prodrive Hunter T1+ in the top-5.
Cristian Baumgart and Beco Andreotti, the fourth duo to drop, completed the first lap of the largest rally of the Americas in the third position in the overall classification, two positions ahead of the Prodrive Hunter T1+ of the duo Marcos Baumgaard and Kleber Cincea, which opened.
For the special tomorrow, the second of the 31st edition of the Sertões, Cristian and Beco, intend to continue accelerating to win more positions. Marcos and Kleber, who opened the track in the stage this Friday, hope to recover the lost terrain to get closer to the pointers.
In the special of this Sunday, the competitors will face a shorter day, with a total of 246 kilometers, consisting of 72 km of connection and 174 timed, once again leaving from Petrolina, in Pernambuco, but now passing through Juremal, in Bahia and returning to Petrolina.
