Over the weekend the 2011 edition of the Portuguese Cup was held in the old town of Evora in Alentejo - 100km East of Capital Lisbon. With an all new track for 2011 the race went well with good organisation as well as a track that held up well. Eventual TQ & Winner Bruno Coelho sent us his report from the race and despite only completing his engine break in during the last round of practice he felt confident with his package for qualifying. Securing overal TQ by topping two qualifiers Coelho eased through his semi to start in 2nd behind Miguel Matias on pole. The 45 min final came down to a battle between Bruno and Miguel with the pair running close right up to the end, however a problem with 2 mins to go would see Miguel retire, albeit still claiming 2nd ahead of Ricardo Monteiro. Despite Miguel's retirement it was a close fight with either of the two able to win, fastest lap going to Bruno giving him a clean sweep of TQ, win & Best lap.
