Andersson gets job done in Leg 2

Main1-Pro-Andersson-LR

Having thrown away an almost certain win in the opening A-Main, Christer Andersson got the job done leading from start to finish in Leg 2.  The Top Qualifier faced stronger pressure from the No.2 starter this time round with the two clashing a minute in a half into the race with Volker coming off the worse. Dropping to third the Yokomo driver got back up to second and closed again on the leading Associated but with 1:30 left on the clock he rolled coming on to the straight ending his challenge for the win. Driving his own race and sticking to his racing line Andersson then came under pressure from fellow Finn Teemu Leino but the Xray couldn’t find a way past.  Tamiya’s Marc Rheinard who finished the opening leg literally stuck to Andersson, again finished third but over 2 second adrift of the leader and as a result will not retain his DHI Cup title.

Having failed to finish the opening leg Corally’s Marc Fisher took fourth ahead of Leg 1 winner Volker with the fastest man on the track Yannic Pruemper completing the Top 6.  The  result of the second A-Main means just three drivers, Andersson, Leino, and Volker are left in with a chance to win the 10th Anniversary DHI Cup, the two Finns chasing their first win at the prestigious Danish race.

Main1-Pro-Berg-LR

In Pro Stock defending champion Tommy Bergfeldt ensured the title would be decided in the last Leg by taking the win ahead of Top Qualifier & Leg 1 winner Alexander Stocker.  Bergfeldt said his car had understeer this time round but his fellow Hot Bodies driver also had a less then perfect car.  A bad diff made the car difficult to drive for the German who challenged Bergfeldt a number of times only to be caught out his snappy handling car.  Having only last 2 laps in the opening final Yokomo’s Yukijiro Umino completed the Top 3.
