Taking place this weekend, the Anittapolis Road Race, will mark a distinct cornerstone in Brazil’s motorsport history, the nation’s first pure road race of this century.
Located in Anitapolis – Santa Catarina, the meeting strongly supported by local politicians, has been-inspired by international road racing’s most acclaimed, famous events, the Northwest 200 and TT Races.
On Saturday, two races featuring 30 second starting-intervals, 400cc (Twin-Cylinder), 300cc (Single-Cylinder), Super Motard, yesteryear Two-Stroke (350cc), Four-Stroke (450cc) machines are-poised to take place.
Set to further accelerate real road racing’s popularity in South America, one must wish the organising team, boundless strands of positivity.
At this moment, it is worth covering Brazil’s foremost roads scene participant in recent times, Pikes Peak International Hill Climb top three finisher, former NW200, TT, Macau Grand Prix competitor Rafael Paschoalin.
