Overview

  • Santiago Urrutia mastered wet conditions to win the 18‑lap guest‑drivers race, finishing ahead of Franco Vivian and Lautaro Campione.
  • The first part was moved from Circuit 9 to Circuit 8 (3,337 m) due to a technical issue affecting car lubrication, and multiple incidents followed in the rain.
  • Saturday’s result sets the grid for the finale, placing the Rossi–Urrutia Toyota Corolla Cross GR‑S on pole for the 200 Km race at 12:30 local time Sunday.
  • The main race requires a fuel stop after lap 10 and a driver change, with special points on offer that could reshape the championship.
  • This 19th edition debuts the new ~500 hp SUV generation with 17 pairings; Leonel Pernía set the fastest qualifying time earlier as the standings stay tight with Rossi on 116 points, Emiliano Stang on 115 and Vivian on 98.
