We are pleased to announce that we have received, and accepted, a bid from the town of Governador Valadares to run the Super Final on the originally planned dates. With a promising forecast and good flying conditions already in the area, we expect to run a good quality competition.
We are working to research and implement efficient transfers from Vitoria to Valadares, and we will keep you informed. Please check carefully with your airline if you wish to modify a booked itinerary in any way (including not using the domestic transfer from Rio to Vitoria, for example) as this might invalidate your booking.
We look forward to seeing you there.

Over the last few weeks, Baixo Guandu has been subjected to the worst flooding since records began. All roads leading into the town have been cut, tens of thousands of homes and businesses are underwater and many people have lost their lives. All our thoughts are with the people of Baixo Guandu and the surrounding area as they struggle to recover from this catastrophe.
As details of the disaster have emerged, it has become almost certain that it will not be possible to run the Super Final as originally planned, and it has become necessary to decide how to proceed.
With at least one option now available to us, we have decided that it should be possible to run the Super Final in a location in Brazil on the same dates. If necessary the competition will be shortened to allow local transfers. We understand that doing this may create considerable difficulties, but we also understand that pilots already have (mostly non-refundable) flight tickets and vacations already booked. It’s possible that some non-essential services may be missing from the competition, but we do not anticipate requiring any supplement to the entry fees.
There remains a lot of work to be done to finalise things. We will keep you informed as soon as there is more concrete information.
