Maddison and Leino take Round 1

Teemu Leino has taken the first leg of the modified A-main final following a close race with Tamiya racer Viktor Wilck. The Team Orion sponsored Xray racer jumped straight into the lead from his pole position and controlled the race, also managing to set the fastest lap of the race, a 15.74 second lap. A race long battle Leino was given some breathing space when Wilck rolled going onto the straight with 30 seconds to go allowing him to finish just over a second in front at the end. Early in the race Groskamp was hit by an extremely fast starting Juho Levanen, this caused his body to tuck under and dropped him to last where he stayed for the rest of the leg. The biggest mover was Ronald Volker, the defending Champion managed to make his way up to 3rd spot at the end, finishing just ahead of 4th place Levanen.

In what was a very close race in the stock class it was Jimmy Maddison that has won through from 2nd on the grid to take the win the first leg of the A-main. After a quick start by Jimmy, the pole man Christoph Thiele started to close and then hound the Schumacher racer, eventually getting passed after Jimmy hit the dots going onto the straight. The very next lap Thiele did the same thing and Jimmy got back into the lead which Maddison barely held onto for the rest of the race. On the last lap going onto the straight the pair came together and while Jimmy waited for Thiele Fadkte took advantage of the situation and slipped into 2nd, a half a second behind the winner and 3 tenths ahead of Thiele in 3rd.
