Vehicle of the Kandangus team to whom Geraldo Piquet gives support (foto: Theo Ribeiro)
The son of one of the greatest Brazilian drivers, follows the 2011 Sertões Rally from up close. Geraldo Piquet takes care of the logistics and takes mechanics to the quick support in the Kandangus team.
This is not the first time that the son of the three time Formula 1 Champion, Nelson Piquet, travels with the rally, but this time he is doing the full trip, there is no longer a conflict in the dates with Formula Truck, in which he is one of the main competitors.
I havent managed to run here yet, but I have been giving support, having fun, he said. I like the off-road world. I have a jeep, so for me its a pleasure.
In the last two editions, I had to leave early because of the calendar. This year there was a race in Londrina on the 7th and right afterwards I went to Goiânia for the prologue. It worked out just right.
Geraldo has already participated in one stage of a regularity rally in another speed rally.
But he does well on the racetracks: he is leader in one of the Truck championships.
