Joan “Nani” Roma (ES) in his striking yellow MINI ALL4 Racing car won the sixth round of the 2014 FIA World Cup for Cross Country Rallies. The sweet victory came in after four demanding special stages and 666.13 competitive kilometres during the 2014 Baja Aragón in Spain. The Spaniard and his co-driver Michel Périn (FR) claimed the victory for the Monster Energy X-raid Team. The three cars behind them were also MINI ALL4Racing car.
Those who came in after Roma included team-mates Orlando Terranova/Moi Torrallardona (AR/ES), Martin Kaczmarski/Tappio Suominen (PL/FI) and the current World Cup leader Vladimir Vasilyev/Konstantin Zhiltsov (RU/RU) in positions 2, 3 and 4 respectively.
Roma had won the 2014 Dakar Rally in the MINI ALL4 Racing. Now it was his fourth Baja Aragón victory of his career and a successful repeat of his 2013 Baja Aragón victory. “The Baja Aragón is always something special,” he said.
After his victory Roma said, “It is a home race for me, but in 2009 it was also the first rally I did for the X-raid Team – and I won it right away. Last year, it also was a trouble-free event for me. So being able to repeat last year’s victory definitely feels good.”
