The IWF will for the first time take place on the Portimao circuit, which has already hosted a large number of prestigious international events in the past. With the decision to reserve the IWF for the X30 Mini, X30 Junior, X30 Senior, and X30 Master categories, the week's program will be much more balanced than in previous years. In terms of the sporting schedule, the principle of the Super Heat will be introduced to replace the Prefinals, while the Masters will benefit from a more appropriate schedule.
In Portimao, the drivers who have been lucky enough to obtain an entry ticket for the 2023 IWF are preparing for an absolutely unique event. With so many drivers taking part (138 in the Senior category, 105 in the Mini category, 93 in the Junior category and 44 in the Master category), it's hard to pick favourites, but the face-off between competitors from all over the world should make for lively, uncertain racing. The Algarve's 1,531-metre circuit has a habit of adding to the spectacle thanks to its hilly layout, which encourages overtaking. At Portimao, you sometimes have to wait until the last bend to see who will emerge first to cross the line as the winner.
