The Olula del Río Town Hall square was the setting for the presentation this Monday morning of the 10th edition of the Rally Valle del Almanzora and Sierra de los Filabres.
The presentation took place with the presence of representatives of the Association of Municipalities and authorities of the localities through which the event will run the next 8 and 9 March, Arboleas, Cóbdar, Líjar, Olula del Río, Albanchez, Cantoria and Chercos, along with the president and delegate of the Federation of Andalusian Automobile, those responsible for the safety of the competition and the champion of the Andalusian Rally Crono Andaluz, Sergio Capel.
For Salvador Segura, president of the Club Balcón del Almanzora and one of the promoters of the event, «this edition is special; it will have new features such as the change of route, including municipalities such as Cantoria, Arboleas and Cóbdar, repeating Olula del Río as the nerve centre, together with villages such as Albanchez, Líjar and Chercos. It is expected to be a rally with a novel inscription, both in terms of the number of entrants and the number of world-class leading cars, which will make it very difficult to be the winner of the 10th Anniversary».

This edition is dedicated to a well-known mechanic of the area, Manolo Elvira, from Olulia, who has already passed away, and who participated in previous editions aboard his 124 with the number 17.
