Baja Portalegre 500 2017

Baja Portalegre 500 2017 Round 11, FIA Cross Country Rally World Cup .

 

  • MINI to contest Baja Portalegre 500 2017 – 11th and final round of FIA Cross Country Rally World Cup.
  • Two MINI crews to challenge end of season Baja of 638.41 km – 472.97 against the clock.

Munich. The annual Baja Portalegre 500 once again signals the season end of the FIA Cross Country Rally World Cup. So far in the 2017 edition of the World Cup, MINI and MINI Motorsport partner X-raid have witnessed spectacular racing across deserts, through forests, riverbeds, rock-lined mountain tracks and much more. Based on previous editions of Baja Portalegre 500, this Portuguese-held round (11) of the World Cup promises to be no different on the excitement chart.

 

Two MINI crews are lined up to compete at Baja Portalegre 500, both intent on replicating the win by MINI at last year’s event with Ricardo Porém (POR) and Filipe Palmeiro (POR) as co-driver in a MINI ALL4 Racing.

 

For this year’s event, Filipe Palmeiro returns to his home ground as co-driver but in a MINI John Cooper Works Rally (#608) and being driven by Boris Garafulic (CHL). The pairing hope to continue the fortune that saw them successfully complete Rallye OiLibya du Maroc (round 10) at the beginning of October.

 

The second X-raid Team entry (#609) is that of Guilherme Spinelli (BRA) and Youssef Haddad (BRA). The Brazilian duo is reunited with an X-raid prepared MINI ALL4 Racing they drove to six stage wins during the Brazilian Rally dos Sertões in August.

CO2 emission information.

Fuel consumption, CO2 emission figures and power consumption and range were measured using the methods required according to Regulation VO (EC) 2007/715 as amended. They refer to vehicles on the German automotive market. For ranges, the NEDC figures take into account differences in the selected wheel and tyre size, while the WLTP figures take into account the effects of any optional equipment.

All figures have already been calculated based on the new WLTP test cycle. NEDC figures listed have been adjusted to the NEDC measurement method where applicable. WLTP values are used as a basis for the assessment of taxes and other vehicle-related duties which are (also) based on CO2 emissions and, where applicable, for the purposes of vehicle-specific subsidies. Further information on the WLTP and NEDC measurement procedures is also available at www.bmw.de/wltp.

For further details of the official fuel consumption figures and official specific CO2 emissions of new cars, please refer to the “Manual on the fuel consumption, CO2 emissions and power consumption of new cars”, available at sales outlets free of charge, from Deutsche Automobil Treuhand GmbH (DAT), Hellmuth-Hirth-Str. 1, 73760 Ostfildern-Scharnhausen and at https://www.dat.de/co2/.
