The European Rally Championship is hosted in the spectacular
landscapes of the island of Madeira in early August.
The European Rally Championship is the oldest international
competition organized by FIA (the Fédération Internationale de
l'Automobile), and includes 10 events in 10 European countries.
The
Madeira Wine rally is one of the most important events in the
championship and is the region’s biggest automobile event,
attracting thousands of spectators to mountainous areas in search
of a better place to watch the vehicles as they thunder by.
The rally is named after one of the main products in Madeira, the liqueur wine that was
already highly popular in European courts in the 18th century due to its unique aroma and
flavor.
