Xray ProStock
Pro Stock A3 goes to Kretschmer
In the Xray Pro Stock class it was Louis Kretschmer who took the win in the last heat of the day. Right after the start, second placed Berkan Kilic slightly touched the rear of Alex Kunkler`s car in front of him. Kretschmer took advantage of it and never looked back until he crossed the line. After the collision, Kunkler found himself back in third place and tried to overtake second placed Frederik Mikkelsen. Danish driver Mikkelsen stayed calm until the end and brought home the second place in A3.
But the overall result still looked different as Alex Kunkler finished second and Louis Kretschmer third. Mikkelsen in fourth, and Mächler in fifth place completed an “all Awesomatix” top 5 in the Xray Pro Stock class.

ETS A2 Report RD5 Season #14 2021/22
Matrix Modified
Völker and Mugen Seiki are overall ETS champions
After Ronald Völker crossed the finish line here in A2 of the Matrix modified class, the audience had a huge applause for the newly crowned ETS champion. With this win here in Daun, nobody could take the title away from Völker anymore. It is his seventh overall ETS title, and the first for Mugen Seiki – the team he joined at the end of 2020.
Directly after the start Marc Rheinard (Awesomatix) was close to Völker but in lap 2, Marc spun out while he entered the chicane and lost his second spot to Yokomo`s Christopher Krapp. The Yokomo driver had a great pace afterwards and closed the gap to the Mugen car of Völker in front of him. But as Krapp was driving “a little over the limit to catch Ronald”, he had some small bubbles here and there which allowed Rheinard to come closer again. As Krapp was riding a curb slightly too much, Rheinard took the chance and passed him to get the second place back.
At the front it was still Ronald Völker leading, and everything looked easy for him until Marco Kaufmann`s car had a crash on track and landed directly on the front hood of Volker’s Mugen at the end of the fast straightway. What a shock for everybody around the track. Rheinard came closer again but luckily for Ronald, his car was only tweaked a little bit and he could still bring home the win in the last minute of the race to take the win here in Daun and the overall ETS title in the Matrix Modified class.
We talked to a very delighted Ronald Völker after A2:
My car was a little bit twitchy in the beginning and I touched the curbs in the chicane in the opening lap. After Marc had a small bubble, I had some breathing room but also Chrissi (Christopher Krapp) was having a good run. I tried to not let him come closer. However, at the 4-minute mark I had a comfortable lead and I got shocked out of nowhere when a car was landing on the front hood of my car. Luckily it landed on my car and not right in front of it, otherwise it would have ended my race immediately. After that my Mugen car felt slightly tweaked but the gap was just enough to bring it home. I am very happy to win the first ETS title for Mugen Seiki and I like to thank Robert Pietsch and everybody else in the team for the great support. I also like to thank Jürgen Lautenbach from LRP for his support over all the years as my perfect working LRP power package was a huge factor in the hunt for another ETS title as well as all my other sponsors for their long term partnership.

Xray ProStock
Lauter scores maximum points in Daun after winning chaotic A2
Simon Lauter took the win in A2 of the Xray ProStock class and is the overall winner of RD5 at the Sporthotel Grafenwald in Daun. Simon took it tone to tone with his Awesomatix teammate Alex Kunkler finishing 0.6 seconds behind him in the second spot. Behind them, Frederik Mikkelsen had a great race from 6th on the grid to the third position.
But the spectators around the track all looked a little surprised about the heat as we saw so many crashed, hard moves and some unsportsmanlike conduct on track as well. For sure, it is just an RC car race, but we are hoping that everybody will take a deep breath now to show us a clean and nice third A-Main. The top three had nothing to do with this big carnage during the race, but almost everybody else was involved in some “scary” scenes.
Asked about his strong win here in Daun Simon Lauter had the following words for us:
I am happy with this result as I had to deliver here at the fifth round of the championship. It was not easy to claim the pole position here as everybody was so fast and the competition was very high. In A1 on Saturday my car was unreal and as good as it has never been before. In today`s second leg it was still very good, but I had to keep my nerves under control as Kunki (Alex Kunkler) always was in striking distance. In the end it all went fine for me and I am also very happy for Kunki`s strong result as we practiced a lot together before this event.

Orca 17.5 Stock
Dominant win for Reile as he takes A2 for overall victory
Dominik Reile is the overall winner of ETS RD5. After he won A1 yesterday evening, he took full advantage of his starting position again and drove to a relatively unchallenged win in A2 on Sunday morning. Daniel Pöhlmann was close to him after the start, but during the run Reile was able to stretch his lead to 1.8 seconds. Thomas Bemmerl had a traction roll in lap 7 and lost the conbtact to the duo in front. He still managed to defend his position against Alexander Müller who finished fourth in A2.
For Dominik Reile it was the second win of the season, with championship leader Thomas Bemmerl have taken three wins so far. The championship is not finally in the bag for Bemmerl as Reile will have the chance to achieve the same amount with another win at ETS RD6 which is scheduled for March in Neumünster.
Asked about his weekend, Dominik Reile told our media team:
It feels really great to win here in Daun. I am happy with my own driving and my Awesomatix car was so good all weekend. I hope that we will have the race in Neumünster as I would love to fight for the overall title with Thomas there.

Toni Mateo is the winner of the ToniSport 40+ Masters class. Toni had to defend against strong driving Caspar Morgen for the entire 5 minutes of the race, but he was able to stand his ground and brought home another win after he won ETS RD4 in Neumünster some weeks ago. Behind Mateo and Morgen we saw Ulrich Dinger, Torsten Baggendorf and Thomas Oehler rounding out the top 5 in A-Main number two of the 40+ Masters class.

Scorpion Formula
The Formula win goes to Great Britain as Lee takes A2
Top Qualifier Luke Lee will bring a nice trophy home to the UK. He took the second leg of A-Mains here in Daun with Renè Kölbel chasing him around the track for the entire race. But Luke Lee looked very strong in the front and didn`t make any mistakes which meant that there was absolutely no chance for Kölbel to ride some serious attacks on Lee.
Behind race winner Lee and Renè Kölbel, Sören Sparbier drove to another strong third place in A2 of the Scorpion Formula class. A3 will be on the line soon and the fight for second overall is still open between Kölbel and Sparbier.

Interview with EFRA President Javier Garcia
EFRA President Javier Garcia came along to this week’s ETS event in Daun. Oli Meggitt from our Media Team had the chance to interview him to talk about EFRA, Euro RC Series events, and racing in general.
OM – a first question, what brings you to Germany and to the ETS this weekend?
JG – Well, as part of EFRA’s Development Plan, we identified the need and benefits to co-operate with other races and race organisers. I had the chance to come here and I think it is important to visit events like the ETS to demonstrate this sort of co-operation.
OM – Can you tell us a bit more about the Development Plan and what it hopes to mean for RC across Europe, and also for our events in the ETS, EOS and ENS?
JG – The main aim is to help grow our sport. I hope to see EFRA as an umbrella for the whole RC community – people who are racing at any events, if they are EFRA events, Nationals, or events from any other organisers. We can always learn from each other! We can see different points of view and different ways to approach events and different racers too. It is important to EFRA to have strong National championships, but we realise it’s important to co-operate with big international races like ETS too. Overall, we want to promote RC in the best way possible, and I think that means everyone working together.
OM – In 2020 and 2021 there were no EFRA races, whilst there could be some other international races like the ETS, EOS and ENS races we held in that time. Were you worried that EFRA didn’t hold any races, but other events did happen?
JG – Actually no, I want to thank organisers like the ETS crew to keep events running these last years. Both international events and many Nationals races that could take place too, and that’s important for RC of course. But for an EFRA European Championship, we decided we could not risk to hold it and not every country would be able to attend.
OM – So what does 2022 look like from your view?
JG – Of course, EFRA events will be back in 2022 and we are pleased to show our Development Plan work. For example, there will be some new and different media approaches to races and we want to expand our co-operations with other series and events, like we already announced with RCGP.
OM – Can you summarise how this will work then? What is the basic idea of the co-operation between events and organisers?
JG – As well as using the experience of National Federations, we want EFRA to be the umbrella for RC in Europe – bringing all organisers and manufacturers together. There are three things to highlight really. Firstly, we want to promote our sport better through sharing media and give us the chance to reach out to the most people possible to expose them to RC racing. Second, it’s important to help with calendar co-ordination – there are many great events and it’s important to bring all the calendars together so everyone can easily see all the different races that are there. And third, we want to see how this co-operation can be expanded in future, through learning from each other – things like seeing how different racing formats work for different events.
OM – Thanks for the time to talk to us. Is there any final summary or ending you want to give us?
JG – The most important part is to show our RC community we are all working together. Now is not the time to look for divisions, or for anyone to fight to get drivers to one race instead of another one. It’s an ambitious plan we have, and we hope we can deliver it over the next three years. So let’s see how far we can go, we have just opened the door!
Under the Hood – Berkan Kilic`s Mugen Seiki MTC2
Berkan Kilic is running the actual version of Mugen Seiki`s MTC2 touring car at ETS RD5 in Daun. Berkan had a great race at the last round in Neumünster where he raced for the first time at the ETS, finishing sixth overall in the Pro Stock A-Main.
Here in Daun he is showing a strong pace in qualifying and we took the chance to look under the hood of his Mugen ride. His MTC2 is equipped with the Mugen Seiki aluminum chassis which carries more corner speed on the very technical track. The Active Rear Shock Towers from Mugen are also mounted in his car. They make it more forgiving when riding the curbs and they help for faster direction changes in the tight sections of the track. For the perfect weight balance Berkan`s car is equipped with the Mugen Seiki Motor mount weights. Mugen`s MTC2 car designer Robert Pietsch is helping Berkan with the setup work and the maintenance between the runs.

Matrix Modified
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!

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.

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!

Matrix Modified
Völker takes important pole position in the Modified class
After another round of very intense qualifying here in Daun, we will see Mugen Seiki`s Ronald Völker starting from the pole position into the triple A-Mains of the Matrix Modified class. In the opening lap of the race, Völker had a traction roll coming out of nowhere. Asked about that issue after the race, Ronald said that it must have been caused by a very small bump or a piece of tape on the black ETS carpet. He was not able to recover from this big loss of almost 5 seconds and in the meantime, Marc Rheinard was leading the race. The Awesomatix driver tried everything to win the heat with a faster time compared to Völker`s time from Q3 as he wanted to steal the overall TQ away from the Mugen driver. But in the end Marc`s time was 3 tenths off the pace from Völker`s fastest runtime which handed the overall TQ to Ronald Völker.
Behind Rheinard we saw Christopher Krapp (Yokomo), Lucas Urbain (Awesomatix), Karri Salmela (Awesomatix) and Yannic Prümper (Yokomo) completing the top 5 in the last round of Modified qualifying in Daun.
TQ Ronald Völker had the following words for us:
After the traction roll in lap one my race was done. I continued driving but tried to not interrupt the race for the others as I knew that I had dropped back to the end of the field. I was not sure about Marc`s pace on track so it took until the very end to know that I had the overall TQ in the bag. For the finals I will try to defend my position as my goal is to win here in Daun. But I expect a lot of pressure from Marc and it will be a lot of work to stay on top of the field!
Ronald Völker, Mugen Seiki/LRP
Second place qualifier Marc Rheinard about his qualifying result:
Lining up second on the grid is not bad, but for sure I am disappointed about not having the pole position here in Daun. I don`t know if it is possible to overtake on this track but I will try to build up as much pressure on Ronald as possible. On the other side, Krappi (Christopher Krapp) is also having a good pace and I have to stay ahead of him as well. I am ready for the finals and my car is good enough for the win!

Christopher Krapp also talked to our media team after Q4:
Overall, a really good qualifying result for me and I am happy with that. My Yokomo car feels good on track, and I hope that I can keep up the pace with Marc and Ronald in the finals. Sometimes, third is the best place to be when something happens in front. If so, I will be there to fight for an even better position!

Hobbywing Frontwheel
Clean sweep for Niemann in FWD qualifying
The last round of qualifying in the Hobbywing Frontwheel class saw Mein Niemann showing once again why he will start from pole position. He laid down the only 17 lap run of the entire field, making it a perfect day for him. Behind Niemann it was Alexander Stocker who posted the second fastest time ahead of Sören Sparbier, Max Körner and Steven Olsen. We expect some nail-biting finals in the Hobbywing FWD class as the top drivers are on a similar pace and only Niemann looked a bit stronger. Will anybody have a serious shot to fight with him for the win ?

Dominik Reile took a very intense last heat of Orca 17.5 Stock qualifying ahead of Thomas Bemmerl and Daniel Pöhlmann. The trio was only separated by 0.3 seconds as they crossed the finish line and Dominik Reile was really delighted about his win when he came down from the driver stand. We can expect a tough fight for the win in the upcoming triple A-Mains and we are looking forward to these races. Can Thomas Bemmerl win the overall title here in Daun, or can Dominik Reile win the race to delay the title decision into the next race? Niclas Storm booked his first A-Main at the ETS and will start from 10th on the grid – congratulations!
Asked about his feelings after claiming the overall TQ, Dominik Reile had the following to say:
I was close to a heart attack at the end of the race because the pressure was so high. But now I will start from pole position which is one first step if you like to win such a big race. I hope that I will have my nerves under control as it is never easy to lead a race from the start with such fast guys right behind you. Let`s see what I can bring home after the finals!

ETS Q3 Report RD5 Season #14 2021/22
Round three of qualifying here in Daun is in the books. We saw intense racing against the time again and is is a very close decision in all of our six ETS racing classes. As always, you find some videos of the top heats in our report where you can easily see that drivers have a lot of work to do on their steering wheel on this year`s racetrack at ETS RD5 in Daun!
Matrix Modified
Völker on top in Q3, overall TQ to be decided in Q4
Ronald Völker (Mugen Seiki) took the third round of qualifying of the Matrix Modified class. After Marc Rheinard (Awesomatix) was fastest in Q2, Ronald was able to take the third one by 0.245 of a second. To point out how close qualifying is here in the Modified class: Ronald`s advantage of time over Marc after three rounds of qualifying (15 minutes) is 0.305 seconds! It is really unbelievable how close these guys are. Behind the leading duo it was Christopher Krapp (Yokomo), Lucas Urbain (Awesomatix) and Michal Orlowski (Schumacher) rounding out the top 5.
The decision for the overall TQ comes down to the line in the fourth and final qualifier and it will be all between Ronald Völker and Marc Rheinard again – a guarantee for another THRILLER. Right now, Ronald has the faster overall runtime at his favour. Let`s see what Marc can do in Q4.

Xray ProStock
Kunkler takes RD3 of Pro Stock qualifying
The third round of qualifying in the Xray ProStock class saw Awesomatix driver Alex Kunkler taking the win. His teammate Simon Lauter had a crash in lap 2 and lost 3.5 seconds but he was able to recover from that and still finished second for the round. In the front, Alex Kunkler had a flawless run without any mistakes, and he posted his first ever TQ run at the ETS – something really special for every RC racer.
Behind Kunkler and Lauter it was Awesomatix driver Louis Kretschmer in third place followed by Meik Niemann and Xray`s Lukas Ellerbrock who made it into the top 5 for the first time this weekend!
Round 4 of Pro Stock qualifying will be up next and the only driver with a theoretical chance to steal the TQ away from Simon Lauter is Alex Kunkler now. But therefore, he would need a faster run as Lauter posted in Q2 and that will not be an easy task for Kunkler. Simon Lauter is still looking like the fastest guy out there and he posted the fastest lap of the day (15.079) as well.
We talked to Alex Kunkler and asked him about his feelings after his first ever TQ run:
Really cool to finally TQ a round of qualifying at the ETS. After Simon made the mistake in lap 2 I was leading and luckily I got it together until the end. Simon was closing up all the time, but he lost to much time in the beginning which was good for me in this case. For the next round I will try some small setup changes as my car is absolutely on the limit and not far away from traction rolling. But nevertheless, I will go full send in Q4.

Niemann seals the overall TQ in the FWD class
Meik Niemann will start from pole position into the triple A-Mains of the Hobbywing Frontwheel class. He took another win in Q3 which sealed the deal for him. Behind the dominant driving “Mighty” Meik Niemann, Sören Sparbier was the closest follower as he took second place for the round – his best ever FWD run at the ETS. Steven Olsen, Mischa Kroos, and Sebastian Meibörg completed the top 5 in the third round oh qualifying in our Hobbywing Frontwheel class. With the overall TQ now decided, the places on the grid behind Meik Niemann are still wide open between Olsen, Sparbier, Körner, Stocker, Meibörg and Völker.

After he took a second place in the opening round on Friday afternoon, he topped this result here in Q3 of the Orca 17.5 Stock class. He had an advantage of 1.4 seconds over Thomas Bemmerl and Daniel Pöhlmann – a really strong result for Körner who is racing his third ever ETS event here in Daun.
Behind Körner, Bemmerl and Pöhlmann, we saw Dominik Ruf in fourth and Alexander Müller in fifth position.
Max Körner is on top of the field right now and we are heading into a thrilling fourth round of ETS qualifying in our Orca 17.5 Stock class very soon. The pole position will be on the line between Max Körner, Daniel Pöhlmann and Dominik Reile as all of them TQ`ed at least one round here so far. Keep an eye on our Orca 17.5 Stock class, these guys are showing awesome RC car racing!
Our ETS reporter Patrick had the chance to speak to RD3 TQ Max Körner after the race:
I was really nervous during the run as it was super close with Thomas and Daniel. Luckily, I was able to bring home a clean run and it feels very good to fight for the top spots here in Daun. In Neumünster my goal was making it into the A-Main but here I have a better pace and I hope for an even better result!

Lee fights back in Q3
Luke Lee took the third qualifier in the Scorpion Formula class at ETS RD5 in Daun. The British Formula racer had a clean run and finished 3 seconds ahead of RD2 winner Renè Kölbel. Luke Lee posted the fastest lap of the heat and was the only driver with a 19-lap run. It seems that he has the best pace so far but let`s see if Kölbel will find something to fight for the overall TQ in the upcoming last round of qualifying.
Sören Sparbier, Herbert Weber and Luka Jovicic completed the top 5. With one more round to follow, everything is possible in the Scorpion Formula class.
We talked to Luke Lee and here is what he had to say about his third qualifying run:
As this is the first time ever I am running foam tires on my car here at the ETS, I had to adapt my driving style a little bit during practice. But now I got a good feeling for my car on track, and I really like to drive on this challenging ETS track where you can ride the curbs a little bit! With two TQ runs in the bag I hope to seal the overall TQ in the next round as a good starting position will be very helpful for the finals.

Under the Hood – Meik Niemann`s Awesomatix A800 FX Evo
Meik Niemann is running the actual Awesomatix A800 FX Evo FWD car here at ETS RD5. He was a very quick driver in the past, and won at least one ETS race in the Pro Stock class, (2011 in Warsaw, Poland). At the end of the season, he was the vice Pro Stock champion back in these days.
Now he is back after a 5 year break from R Cracing and it seems he has not lost any of his skills. His Awesomatix car looked brilliant on track and Meik is running the car almost “out of the box” with some MR33 Bulkhead Brass Weights being the only option parts he is using. His battery choice is a 4100mah Shorty from LRP with a very low center of gravity!

The second round of qualifying here in Daun is completed. Find out what happened here on Friday evening and on early Saturday morning at the Sporthotel Grafenwald in the beautiful Eifel region!
Matrix Modified
Rheinard takes early morning Q2 at ETS RD5
Awesomatix driver Marc Rheinard was able to fight back against Mugen`s Ronald Völker this morning. Marc came short in Q1 by just 0.125 seconds, but in Q2 he was able to turn things around to his favour by winning the heat with a gap of 0.065 seconds ahead of Ronald. The race was very close and Völker was leading in the first laps. Then Rheinard took over the lead and stretched it to 0.5 seconds before Völker closed again to take the lead in the last minute. But Rheinard had the better pace in the penultimate lap where he gained back almost three tenths over Völker – enough to win this thrilling round of Qualifying in the Matrix Modified class.
Behind Rheinard and Völker it was Lucas Urbain taking a strong third place with his Awesomatix car. Yokomo`s Christopher Krapp finished fourth and ToniSport`s Dominic Vogl had a great run to P5 with his Awesomatix car in the second fastest group.
We asked round 2 TQ Marc Rheinard about his run:
I expected Q2 to be as intense as Q1 was yesterday, and it was exactly like this. This time I had the better ending on my side, and I am happy about my TQ run. My Orca powered Awesomatix worked flawless and once again it was just about laying down a clean run. Now the TQ is wide open and I will aim to take it!
Marc Rheinard, Awesomatix/Orca
Second placed Ronald Völker had the following words to say after Q2:
At the beginning I drove carefully and after Marc had taken the lead, I pushed a little harder. Once it paid off and I could close the gap again but as we all had been on the absolute limit it was not easy to push that hard until the end. My Mugen Seiki car felt very good and my LRP power package is on point as well. It was a very close result, and I am looking forward to Q3!
Ronald Völker, Mugen Seiki/LRP
Our reporter had a quick chat with French driver Lucas Urbain after he took 3rd place in Q2:
After my start into qualifying was not that good yesterday, my goal was to have a clean run and I drove a bit defensive. In some laps my lines have not been perfect, but at the end of the run I was really surprised by the pace I had. It was a solid third place and I will try to close the gap to the front in the next round. The lightweight body shell I prepared overnight really helped me to get that little bit of extra performance out of my Awesomatix car!

Frederik Mikkelsen and Louis Kretschmer rounded out the top 5 in Q2 of the Xray Pro Stock class.
Simon Lauter after Q2:
My run was almost clinic. I tried to keep it as clean as possible and it worked out fine. My car feels amazing and I enjoy driving it here in Daun. With two TQ runs in the bag I am very confident for the rest of the weekend as I will start from second place in the worst case now.
Simon Lauter, Awesomatix/LRP
Alex Kunkler told us after his second place in Q2:
To be honest, I am super happy with my result. After I struggled in the opening qualifier yesterday evening, I had to deliver something here in Q2. I used my second set of tires which felt a little bit better on track and in Q3 I will attack a bit harder to score another good number of points!

Dominik Reile posted the fastest lap of the race (15.935), but had to take a third place for the round after he lost 3.5 seconds of time in lap number 10. Without this, his runtime would have been good enough for another TQ run but in the end he couldn`t make it happen. Title contender Thomas Bemmerl and Dominik Ruf rounded out the top 5.
