1 - INTRODUCTION AND WELCOME

Welcome to the beautiful Island of Madeira, a sought-after tourist destination and home to oneof the most famous asphalt rallies, the Rali Vinho Madeira. It continues to be organized by theoldest sporting club in the autonomous Region – the Club Sports Madeira.

Taking part, simultaneously, in the European Championship, the Portugal Championship andthe Madeira Rallies Championship the RVM 2008 integrates the Intercontinental RallyChallenge (IRC), a Trophy authorized by the FIA and sponsored by the Sports Channel,EUROSPORT.

When some people appeared suspicious and fearful, we were the first to believe in thisnew project and trophy and in the importance which it would have for the promotion of ourcompetition and for Madeira as a tourist destination.

As a result of this partnership, the most important social and sporting event of Madeirawill have a wide coverage by the said European Channel, having 10 hours of televisiontransmission; 2 hours will consist of 4 programs of 30 minutes, broadcast directly from theservice park. More traditional TV products will be developed such as highlights for broadcaston the other channels.

The Portuguese National Channel, RTP-Madeira, as in previous years, will also provide widecoverage of the competition, with special programs before the event and live coverage of thestart, the end of the Rally and the Podium Ceremony as well as transmission of five specialstages including the first special stage in the centre of the city of Funchal. In all there will besix hours of televised coverage which will be broadcast also at National level by RTP and RTPInternational.

The official Radio Channel, RTP – Madeira, will accompany live all the Rally and more thanforty foreign journalists will be present in Madeira representing International TV Channels andthe media as well as more than fifty journalists from the Portugal mainland and the Region,ensuring the widest possible promotion and diffusion of this sporting event taking place inMadeira.

5Rally Guide 1

Being a very demanding competition along the beautiful winding roads of the island whichleads us rapidly from sea to mountain with spectacular views, it is much appreciated by thedrivers who, year after year, come again to Madeira, ensuring that the Rali Vinho Madeira hasa list of participants of excellent quality with the best international and national drivers and afine group of Madeiran drivers. This makes the rally very competitive, attracting many peopleto the roads.

In the first week of August, we will all meet in Madeira. As well as attending a great sportingspectacle – the Rally celebration – you will have the opportunity to enjoy the amenity of ourclimate, the beautiful scenery of the Island, the hospitality of our people, and at the end toastwith us with a glass of aged and famous "Madeira Wine" to the success of the Rally and the500 years commemoration of the city of Funchal, capital of the Autonomous Region ofMadeira.

We are counting on everybody that the Rally should be fun with maximum security, and thatit should constitute a sporting and competitive spectacle that brings prestige to the PortugueseClubs and Organizations and this sporting event which is so popular among us.

Remember always that the Rally is not for the "Club Madeira" but of Madeira itself. Of all ofyou.
