It will be the first trip for Michal Orlowski to Aigen-Schlägl as he missed out this race in last two years due to Offroad racing commitments. The championship leader was already in Aigen for some practice and highlighted the facility on his social media accounts. Mattia Collina, Ollie Payne, and other fast drivers will represent Schumacher in Aigen to aim for top results. Can Orliowski continue his dominance in Aigen against a firle of world class drivers?

“Wow, what a facility… I can`t wait to race my Mi9 on this track”
I have never been to Aigen before and my expectations are extremely high, since everyone is hyping up this track. I can’t wait for Thursday practice at ETS! The start of the season in Apeldoorn was extremely strong for us despite Mattia Collina not being able to attend. Since he is a crucial part of our team, I am looking forward to see how strong we can be in Austria. We are always working on ways to make our package faster on the track. I am looking forward to being able to battle with the XRAY team at ETS after a long break and of course the usual suspects Marc, Ronald, Lucas and my mechanic Mattia Collina, who was blazing fast here last year.

Collina hopes for consistency in qualifying
“It is great to see many Italian drivers signing up – I really hope for an ETS race in Italy to happen again”
Looking forward to a strong showing at ETS RD2 in Aigen! The Aigen track is a favorite, with its challenging layout, stunning Austrian scenery, and the exceptional organization by ETS and MAV Aigen-Schlägel crews. Last year, I was competitive but qualifying hiccups kept me out of the A-main. This year, consistency will be key to reach the A-main, especially with the high level of competition expected. An extra element of excitement: a larger Italian contingent of drivers and friends will be there! Hopefully, an ETS race in Italy becomes reality someday. For the team, focus remains on maximizing the Mi9 platform’s performance alongside Michal and Andy. Michal and the car have been dominant for the past 18 months, but we know the competition won’t rest. We’ll keep pushing to improve the platform and find those crucial tenths in this professional and competitive field.
