Copa Truck: Totti Clinches Title, Bia Makes PRO History

Copa Truck's November 1 round in Chapecó produced two different milestones: Leandro Totti secured the Super Truck PRO championship, and Bia Figueiredo became the first woman to win a race in the series' premier PRO class. With the finale still on the calendar, the result is a useful starting point for readers following Brazilian truck racing from North America. The season title and the next race remain separate stories.

The organizer's official report places the round at Autódromo Internacional Márcio Vaccaro in Chapecó, Santa Catarina. This was the championship's first visit to the new venue and the eighth of nine rounds. Totti won the first race; Figueiredo won the second. Both victories came in Iveco trucks, but only the first race delivered Totti's championship-clinching result.

Totti and Vannucci reach their first team title

Vannucci Racing's own release identifies the championship as the team's first since its foundation in 2023. Totti started from pole and led the opening race from start to finish in the No. 73 Iveco S-Way. The team says it was his ninth victory of the season, a new single-season Copa Truck record. That result completed the task with one round still to run.

The team's release also records two Elite podiums for Hugo Cibien over the weekend. Those results belong to another class and should not be added to Totti's PRO finishing record. For a reader learning the championship, keeping team, driver, class and race together prevents several different achievements from being compressed into one misleading headline.

Figueiredo's win has a precise scope

Figueiredo took the second PRO race ahead of Raphael Abbate, with Felipe Tozzo third. The organizer describes the victory as the first by a woman in the main PRO category. That wording matters: it is a milestone in this specific class, rather than a claim that women had never previously won in truck racing or in another Copa Truck division.

There is a clear earlier reference. IVECO's January announcement of Figueiredo's arrival says she became the first female Copa Truck champion in Super Truck Elite in 2024. The 2026 PRO victory builds on that history; it does not erase it. Readers sharing the news should preserve the class name so the achievement retains its actual meaning.

Why the Chapecó venue matters

Ahead of the round, IVECO's October 29 preview described a circuit with a 4,004-meter main course, 12 turns and three straights, including an 837-meter straight. Those are venue specifications, not a lap-distance measurement from a particular truck's telemetry. They help explain the setting for a new stop on the series calendar without inventing a technical reason for either driver's result.

A track's layout alone does not demonstrate which engine, tire choice or setup made a winner. This report therefore keeps the venue facts separate from the sporting outcome. There is no verified comparison here between racing-truck performance and a highway fleet's maintenance costs, durability or fuel economy. Similar manufacturer names do not turn a competition result into a purchasing test.

The final round is still ahead

The official season calendar lists Brasília, Distrito Federal, on November 29 as round nine. Vannucci Racing's post-race release identifies the November 27–29 weekend and Autódromo Internacional Nelson Piquet as the finale's venue. The calendar also carries a circuit-homologation condition. These references establish the announced event, but they do not provide a confirmed daily timetable for spectators in Houston.

Treat the race date, access arrangements and session start times as separate items. Before organizing a viewing break or a visit, check the organizer's current program and any ticket conditions. Do not reuse the Chapecó start time for Brasília or assume a North American broadcast platform from coverage available in Brazil. This article does not confirm either a Houston airtime or commercial-truck parking at the venue.

A useful record for following the finale

  • Series and class: Copa Truck, Super Truck PRO.
  • Completed round: Chapecó, November 1, with two races.
  • Championship milestone: Totti clinched the PRO title for Vannucci Racing.
  • Second-race milestone: Figueiredo's first female victory in PRO.
  • Next announced round: Brasília, November 29; check the current session program separately.

The practical next step is to save the correct series, class and date before looking for the final-round program. Follow related stories through Truck Savers News. A championship decided early still leaves a final race weekend to follow; the published result should clarify that sequence without predicting who wins next.
