Mugen Seiki`s Völker takes A1 at ETS RD5 in Daun
Ronald Völker won the opening leg of A-Mains here on Saturday evening in the huge sports hall of the Sporthotel Grafenwald in Daun/GER. He had a good start off the line, but Marc Rheinard was close behind him with his Awesomatix in the first couple of laps. Christopher Krapp followed them with another small gap and was hoping for something to happen right in front of his Yokomo car.
After the first minute of the race, Ronald was able to stretch out his lead a few hundreds of a second, and lap after lap his advantage increased up to 0.7 seconds. Marc tried everything and pushed like hell to hold the pressure high, but in the end, Ronald took the win after an impressive run and crossed the line 0.490 seconds ahead of the Awesomatix lead driver Rheinard.
Christopher Krapp (Yokomo) had a solid run to third place and Lucas Urbain (Awesomatix) was able to hold off a hard chasing Yannic Prümper (Yokomo). After his win in A1, Ronald Völker can be very optimistic for Sunday where he has the chance to celebrate his seventh overall ETS title in the modified class.

Xray Pro Stock
Impressive win for Lauter in A1
Simon Lauter started with an amazing start to finish victory in the triple A-Mains of the Xray Pro Stock class. No other driver of the high-class starter field was able to match Simon`s pace during the run and he won with a huge gap of 3 seconds ahead of his Awesomatix teammate Alex Kunkler. Frederik Mikkelsen took the biggest benefit out of a contact between Berkan Kilic (Mugen Seiki) and Max Mächler (Awesomatix) and moved up to the third spot. Louis Kretschmer (Awesomatix) finished fourth and Max Mächler took the fifth place.
Simon Lauter is only one heat away from taking the win here in Daun. A victory that would help him a lot in the overall championship against Xray`s Alexandre Duchet who is racing in the United States this weekend!

ToniSport 40+ Masters
Mateo wins A1 ahead of Morgen and Stankowitz
The first A-main of the ToniSport 40+ Masters class saw Toni Mateo converting his pole position into a win. The quick driver from Gran Canaria also had some luck on his side when his main contenders Caspar Morgen and Ulrich Dinger both made some mistakes in the first 2 minutes of the race. Mateo took A1 with a gap of 1.5 seconds ahead of Caspar Morgen who worked his way back to the field to the second position after his driving error in lap number seven. Ulrich Dinger had more trouble after his “wrong turn” and finished only in 9th position. Manuel Stankowitz took advantage of that and crossed the line in third place. Thomas Oehler and Mirco Thalheimer followed Stankowitz in 4th and 5th place.

Scorpion Formula
Lee with a clinic drive to win A1 ahead of Kölbel
The first A-Main of the Scorpion Formula class saw top qualifier Luke Lee taking the win after a great drive here on the very technical track in Daun. Renè Kölbel tried everything to follow Luke Lee on track and he was pushing very hard to close the gap. He came closer for a several times and lost some tenths in other laps which looked like in the real Formula 1, where drivers must stay out of the “dirty air”. In the last minute of the race, Kölbel started his last attempt to catch Luke Lee but in the end, he ran out of time and Luke Lee took the win by 0.5 seconds from Kölbel.
Sören Sparbier, Herbert Weber and Mathias Domig completed the top five here in A-Main number one of our Scorpion Formula division. A2 will be on the line tomorrow morning – let`s see what the drivers will show us there!
