The Mexico TV4 team is on a podium in this edition of the Rally of Nations and after eight stages it is placed in second place, still away from the leaders but with good chances of getting a podium that would be historic by the hand of Alejandro Mauro and Gustavo Urióstegui.
And it is that to talk about this 2024 in the terraces of Guanajuato is undoubtedly to speak of the intense dominance that Scandinavia has had with the duo made up of Mads Ostberg and Dennis Radstrom, who have dominated their respective categories, with good chances of finally achieving the triumph.
Since the 2022 edition, Mads was left with a bittersweet flavor because individually, it was the fastest, but because of the points system he could not keep the triumph, now with a partner who has shown greater regularity they have a total of 454,5 points that leave them with a comfortable advantage over the rest of the nations that are participating.
France ran out of chances because its two drivers, Didier Auriol and Julien Ingrassia, had to leave the competition due to mechanical problems, while Italy, who were leaving in fourth place, will lose Alberto Battistolli, who has announced that he will not be able to return for the second consecutive edition, since in 2022 he also had to abandon.
The other Mexican team, GTO 200 years that make up Ricardo Cordero and the pilot of Escudería TV4, Patrice Spitalier, also march in a podium position, occupy third place just points from second place and with this, but something extraordinary happens in the stages of Sunday, Mexico has practically secured second and third places.
