ETS A2 + A3 Report RD5 Season #15 2022/23

The fifth round of the Euro Touring Series Season #15 in Hann. Münden is in the books and the trophy ceremony is done. The ETS family had an amazing weekend at the Trans World Hotel Auefeld and we like to say thank you to everybody for coming, and also to the hotel crew for their great support.

Matrix Modified

Völker wins Modified and adds more tension to championship battle ahead of season final in Daun

A2 – The second A-Main of the Matrix Modified class saw Marc Rheinard spinning out in the first lap of the race, where the Awesomatix driver was a little too close on the curbing in the fast left hander in front of the drivers stand. He dropped down to the end of the pack and showed some great RC driving afterwards as he pushed Patrick Gollner around the track fighting for one of the spots at the end of the field. It was great to watch, and the crowd loved it. But for sure, this was not what Rheinard had in mind at the sound of the tone.
Out front, it was Mugen Seiki`s Ronald Völker controlling the race with Lucas Urbain (Awesomatix) in second spot. They had a similar pace and Lucas was not able to come close enough to Völker. After the 5 minutes, Ronald Völker took the win in A2, earning his first ETS race win of the actual season. A very important step for him to get even closer to Rheinard and Krapp in the overall championship rankings.

Asked about his race win, Ronald Völker said:

I am more than delighted with my TQ and win here in Hann. Münden. It brings me totally back in the fight for the ETS title what I did not expect anymore at some point in the middle of the summer season. My LRP powered MTC2 was very good all weekend long, the same as it was at the EWS race last weekend in Great Britain on different tires. I like to thank all my sponsors for their support and I am already looking forward to the season final in Daun!

Marc Rheinard was a little disappointed in a quick chat with the media team:

A2 was a nightmare for me. My car spun around in lap 1 and I think I was a little too aggressive in this corner so I can only blame myself. It is a bit of a bummer as my car felt amazing to drive during the run. I then had a nice battle with Patrick Gollner and he did really well. Now I will try to win A3 to take second overall.

A3 –Marc Rheinard and Lucas Urbain made the show in the last Modified A-Main. Lucas Urbain came really close in the last laps of the race, but Rheinard was able to stand his ground bringing home the win and second place overall for the weekend. Lucas Urbain finished second in A3, and third overall behind Völker and Rheinard. The Yokomo drivers Yannic Prümper and Christopher Krapp finished fourth and fifth in Hann. Münden and the championship final in Daun is expected to be a real thriller!

Awesomatix ProStock

Lauter wins ProStock class and makes a big step to defend overall ETS title

A2 – Simon Lauter (Awesomatix) took the win in the second leg of A-Mains here in Hann. Münden. After a perfect start, Lauter was able to pull away while Tim Benson (Awesomatix) had a lot of work to do to defend his second position against reigning European champion Olivier Bultynck (Awesomatix) during the entire run. Bultynck knocked on the door two times but didn`t find his way around Bensons car. Simon Lauter took full advantage out front and brought home a well-deserved win in the Awesomatix Pro Stock class. Max Mächler (Awesomatix) and Adam Izsay (Xray) completed the top 5 in A2.

A3 – The last A-Main of the Awesomatix Pro Stock it was Tim Benson starting from first place while overall winner Simon Lauter being not on the line. Benson took full advantage and drove a perfect and dominant race in front of Olivier Bultynck and max Mächler. Benson took the last A-Main and finished second overall while Olivier Bultynck secured himself the last place on the podium making it a complete podium lockout for Awesomatix.

Race winner Simon Lauter had the following statement after A2:

My weekend was close to perfection to be honest. I am happy with my own driving, and everything came together as we also had some luck with using the new tires (second set) in the right moment. The whole team worked together very intense, which is easy to see on the number of Awesomatix cars we have in all A-Mains. We made a big step forward with the setup of our car which now suits the driving style of almost everybody. I like to thank Tim Wahl again for his great work supporting all Awesomatix drivers here at the race and I can`t wait for the new (and still top secret) RC Manager game to get released soon!
