Sousa to enter home IRC rounds in Fiesta

Interest in the Intercontinental Rally Challenge continues to grow with the confirmation that Bernado Sousa will compete on at least two rounds of the series this year in an M-Sport Ford Fiesta S2000.

Sousa, who hails from Madeira but now lives in Lisbon, will take part on the rounds in Açores and Madeira later this season. The events also count towards the Portuguese Rally Championship, which Sousa has vowed to try and win in 2010.

He said: “I still have to wait for confirmation from my sponsor but I will try to do the Portuguese championship this year including the two times when it is with the IRC.”

Sousa isn’t the only driver competing in this year’s IRC. Bruno Magalhães, a three-time national champion, is tackling eight events in a Peugeot Portugal-backed 207 S2000.
