António Medeiros, clerk of the course of the 59th Volta à Ilha de São Miguel, gave an interview to Azores Rallye in which he expressed the intention to restore the prestige that this competition and the Azores deserve. The official did not specify which place or position was lost, but made it clear that there is a recovery objective.
The rally takes place on the island of São Miguel, in the Azores archipelago, and is in its 59th edition. This edition represents an opportunity for the event to reaffirm its importance in the sporting calendar.
The interview suggests that there was a period when the rally and the archipelago had greater prominence, and that the organization now intends to work to recover that status. António Medeiros appears as the figure responsible for leading that recovery.
