Portuguese Rally Championship (CPR): FUCHS continues with Ricardo Teodósio on his way to the tetra
The colours of the workshop brand remain on the bonnet and sides of the Hyundai i20 N Rally2 of Ricardo Teodósio and his navigator José Teixeira. You don't mess with a three-time champion, so FUCHS has renewed its support for the Algarve duo: on 20 February, the company's management welcomed the winners of the 2023 Portuguese Rally Championship (CPR) at its Maia facilities. This is the sixth consecutive year of the partnership that began in 2019 with Ricardo Teodósio's team winning its first championship.
The CPR 2024 has four dirt races, the first on 23 February in Fafe, and four asphalt races. Ricardo Teodósio is expected to leave all the competition behind once again. "I'm very excited and strongly motivated to compete with Team Hyundai Portugal and I'm really looking forward to the start of the CPR, as I want to fight to renew the championship title, especially in this year of 2024 due to the strong symbolism that the number 24 represents for me," says the driver and emphasises: "So it's great to be able to count on the support of FUCHS once again."
The partnership with FUCHS extends to the three-time champion's workshop in Guia, as Ricardo Teodósio makes a point of "using FUCHS oils for my racing and everyday cars because they are the best oils on the market."
"For FUCHS, the partnership has been a winning bet. That's why renewing it is the natural course of action. The duo of Ricardo Teodósio and José Teixeira gives excellent visibility to the FUCHS brand. It reminds us of the fundamental role that our lubricants play in the performance of each car, whether on the race track or on the road," emphasises André Castro Pinheiro, director of the Automotive Division at FUCHS Lubrificantes, adding: "The partnership also allows us to be close to sports and car enthusiasts and to live the team spirit that is another of FUCHS' strong points. We are the workshop brand and we see our customers as partners, always close by, with specialised and helpful advice."
