e e e e e e e e e [Music] it’s the penultimate round of the II Euro Series in 2024 as The Paddock lands in Germany this is Pro Cut Raceland wackersdorf also known as the carting capital of Europe situated in the heart of Bavaria wackersdorf is the home of many of the country’s sporting and cultural attractions the area surrounding proart race down wackersdorf is rich in natural beauty cultural heritage and recreational opportunities whether you’re looking to unwind in the nature at the seinberg MC explore the local history or indulge in the Bavarian Traditions there is something for everyone to enjoy including Motorsport and 200 of the world’s finest drivers have descended on the wackers dorf circuit for as we mentioned round three of that iami Euro series brok up Raceland it is the year of opening 1997 the event record set by Joseph Smith in a non-qualifying practice earlier on this weekend 49. 641 an absolutely outstanding time no one at this moment has managed to beat it the circuit itself though an absolutely fantastic venue spanning at 1.1 9 km 230 M down the main straight 125 M down the infield straight the track widens to around 12 M to 9 M and an elevation of 3 m all of those undulations coming in the round of the first sector as you go up through turn one and then you come back down as you exit out through turns four five and all around that area turns there are 11 of them seven to the right four to the left and four hairpins out there the main overtaking opportunities are mainly into those hairpins in towards Turn 2 4 9 and 10 but we have seen overtakes in many other Corners it’s just a case of getting it right the first time of asking the top speed that drivers will be reaching around this circuit is around 120 km an hour in towards turn one it’s not a breaking Zone but they do scrub off a lot of speed as they head round turn number one in towards turn two average speed around 85 km an hour it is a fast demanding circuit for our drivers and the first time the series has been here since 2019 myself Anthony Jordan will be your commentator for today and I’ll be joined with Gom Alvarez gam welcome back to the series great to have you here yes indeed good morning everybody welcome back to pout R vakas dorf a pleasure to be by your side Anthony a pleasure to be back with the RMC crew for the third round of this year’s championship the year top European series for the x30 classic mini Juniors and seniors we had nine races yesterday with X3 senior the best of them all with more than 100 competitors in this class only 210 competing this weekend nine races yesterday we left the seniors we’re going to start again with them this morning for another rotation of three races and then we’ll have the genius and the minis for the first time in racing mode on track Martin be the race director of all rgmc event in the iami X3 Euro series with both eyes look down onto the start finish straight and the Dem g w drivers have gathered waiting as you can see them right now in order as the result of the qualifying practice that took place yesterday a couple of Heats already as we said a couple of different winners in this class and suddenly more than one Contender able to fight at the Forefront certainly so morning warm up for qualifying he a versus C saw you a luser fastest out there 50179 but this man here Danny kinini yesterday for zanki Motorsport relatively decent day for him uh P5 in his first qualifying heat taking a win in his second as well so certainly proving that he has got the pace and I have to say as well that the zanki Motorsport team the outfit has got a good package here at wackers off this weekend really good results now the yellow light has started to flash on the preg grid indicating that we’ve got around 30 seconds or so before those engines will fire up Ruben Moyer starting alongside on that front row yesterday tricky first qualifying heat down to p113 definitely recovered though in the second got that P2 absolutely superb results and uh I’m sure he will keep that momentum going over the course of today like we’re saying this is the penultimate round of the championship round three round four next when we head to Belgium to carton gank that’s where we’ll Crown our Champions we might Crown one here this weekend we just don’t know let’s have a look at the starting grid then it’s Danny Carini and Ruben moer on row number one mwan who’s had good results B1 and a two yesterday Q Lee who took a race win as well from South Korea starts alongside Maxim blanchan and Miguel Mickey blascos go from Row three then it’s Max hitel and yanah on row four Adam rahale and Romeo Rasel who got to squal ified in his second qualifying heat needs good results today they start in the top 10 Manel Vagner and Marcus luo Championship leader starts this one in the sixth Row The Grid Hank V and Leonardo Loni on row seven ahead of Miguel Silva Al Alex alander r on Road Number Eight R number n we see Blanc and nichas number 10 and car L followed by Morgan hon andan Zari marranada and y v follow on row 12 row 13 Robbie Buckley as well as mat and Mattis 14 Jen L oen by ju and fredley couple of interesting names on to that and information about two of the competitors that we have as well putting up a fresh set of tires interestingly marus losio is your current championship leader coming to backers with 49 points six points clear from Danny Carini who’s going to be starting from po position well Marcus Rio didn’t have the best of start this weekend a difficult qualifying putting him 12 on the grid of his qualifying heat some recoveries some difficult results but he decided already to put a second set of fresher tires for his first race of the day those don’t forget that those drivers on have had two races already as you can see Marcus luio fresh boots all for tires and new tires as well for the driver at the back end of that grid Juan Pablo as well thanks uh to the information sent live pretty much from the grid thanks to Rapton having B fire is wide open to anything happening there down there at the Dem well thank you for joining us once again live on Facebook YouTube Motorsport TV all over the world to keep a close watch on round three of the IMA Euro series here we go then into the tra lines lights go green for the first race of the day as they sweep in towards turn number one flat out around this corner you have to be careful as you then dive into the heavy breaking zone of turn number two positive Campa helps you around the corner as you exit out through turn three down into four and it’s still karini in the lead moer back down the inside retakes second place as the rest of the train all follows through there’s one driver off it’s the 332 Falcon cut unfortunately going no further at all that’s a big drama there now who is that yeah Lis s yeah 26th Place started on this race yeah he was the back end and fortunately it won’t go anywhere near past the opening lap 11 laps to go through for these drivers in the senior class there will be uh eight for the genius and seven for the Min through the qualifying races one lap completely already through that 11 turn layout of open already D gini Building himself a bit of a gap in front of Ruben MOA for half second van in done in third place in front of Ki Max Hazel for top at theend of the opening lap Kini one win in the in the bag already yesterday will to have another one to consolidate what could be leadership in the current classification even though philin as it stands with two points win and second place for the Irish dve from vdk racing who will come into play a bit later but Kini is a win he needs to get his day starting as well on a good foot Ruben MOA on pict a th three former winter Cup winner and one of the contenders obviously as always needs no introduction Fighting For the Win is currently P seven in the championship but they have the best of outcome unfortunately in Fran shakota last time around but uh he looks on face as much as does Danny Carini as we jump on more with the sped and pantana racing team at the whe of the P chassis cre by formula Formula One driver and cting Legend at 100% Georgio Pantano who’s with us this weekend Ruben Moya chasing for the lead Dan Carini into the kick right and left of the chicane in seven and eight down to one of the most interest interesting spots for overtaking and now as I said that fortunately for Ruben Moa well we havean making his bit on the inside F himself in between Zan and K Le just behind in fourth y indeed well close battles happening right at the front there and Bill mvan having some good results over the course of this weekend a win earlier on and that P2 like we explained earlier on very very competitive Drive the same as K Le goes down the inside the driver uh for the Ian’s Grand Prix team uh makes his beard on Ruben moer and gets through so moer down to P4 as luzio sets the fastest lap of the race to be expected brand new set of boots on his cart uh and he’s making his way through the field and he’s actually P5 he’s right behind this battle here on your screen so uh you have to remember as well that luo is battling with Danny kinini in this Championship there is uh no points really between them like about five or six points between them so they do need to be careful about where they finish in these races so luo needs to really get a sharp on which is why I think he’s deployed those tires so early on in this weekend there he is on your screen luo starting P2 gaining those places that fresh rub you can see can carry more speed round turn one and he looks to the inside there no drama there whatsoever and that’s pure pure traction because of those four brand new ties brilliant stuff brilliant stuff indeed for Marcus louio will climb seven places from the start of our race and now eight to the top four body drive from premium cing he’s been uh quite busy this year as well making his debut in a single seat back in Britain in GB3 and gb4 series and bet is back in calling for the F of it and to keep himself fit as well but uh his return has been proved to be fruitful so far as he’s leading a championship with a victory in the back so far for Marcus luio won the opening round in Spain in Zera with danini is closest rival as we said with a best result second place in Fran corta the other wi coming to Ricardo Ferrari another interesting name in the field on the inside goes luio beautifully made on K Le wow what a rhythm that is for MOS luio on fresh set of tires don’t forget when it comes to the seniors they have a slight exception they have two sets of tires to use between the qualifying practice and the super heat and they have a fresh set when it comes to the final which is not the case for the juniors and the minis don’t forget which means that all those drivers have to go through six qualifying races in total and this is qualifying race number three for maruso and already a second set of fresh tires we have to keep an eye on uh howest performance will evolve from that point on throughout the day that uh that’s a Gamble and he is the only one in the field with Juan Pablo J who is not fighting in the same group obviously but among the contenders and the favorites for the win is the only one at this point with fresher tires on which explains his better Rhythm at this point compared to the rest of his rival as luo is going to go for another move suddenly is keeping the pressure on V van and maybe by the look of it the victory could be up for grab for marus because Danny Carini currently under four10 of a second advantage on vvan hasn’t been able to pull off no exactly and well there’s a change for second place luzio down the inside of Vil mvan and to be expected again just those fresh tires working well uh yeah luio needs this as I think match blanchon may have had a problem out of on circuit either it’s uh a timing issue or he is off the track the driver of the 297 or 295 I should say tumbling down the order on that lap uh there has been other retirements as well in this one Miguel Silva for the Pano racing team has pulled it into uh the pit Lane inter Park F he’s out of this race as well uh but yeah like we’re saying Marcus luio does need this he doesn’t sit inside the top eight in the intermediate classification at the moment his results have just not been there for Marcus luzio after not the best qualifying but right now he’s closing that Gap up to Danny karini and I’m sure karini will be saying at this point well you know it’s not the end of the world you’ve deployed your fresh tires really really early into the weekend uh remember the allocation for these drivers they get two sets uh of uh slick tires to use over the weekend and then they do get a new set for the final um purely because the amount of qualif hits they get through but uh with this one here luzio I I don’t think karenine is going to fight this one at all he can see that you know luo’s closed in by such a long way uh 10 positions gain I think he’ll just if he gets past he’ll just let him pass there’s a retirement unfortunately into the hit Lane for maxim blanchon like we were saying uh there was an issue mechanical in nature I’m sure uh but the Victory Lane Caron driver out of this race yeah quite un fortunity need for the Frenchman as two10 of a second bit more between deini and Marcus ludio premium calling against zanki Motorsport the Italian team has been absolutely brilliant on soil back in frak corta with a win to Ricardo Ferrari as uh we had as well an interesting result so far for Ricardo Ferrari not only danini but the zi Motorsport and ton card Mach and the pace is there suddenly for Marcus luio and another one in the bag run inside side beautiy made BYO up in the lead and that open the door for fmer Van as well watch out for KP driver Kenny actually tried to make his bit on the inside of struggling Danny Carini certainly the Italian made his bit as well through that race couldn’t hold on to his position sufficiently certainly to prevent luo but luo on a fresh on a fresh set of tires was on a different Rhythm a different planet he needs that win otherwise I would have been L A BET right down into the bin but louio has really put on the performance and extending the Gap now it’s done to Dan kinini it to that final lap to try maybe to snatch second position back to Vos van won’t be an easy task at all as it’s not the most certainly the most the easiest of track I would say vus as you can see it’s relatively short it’s very technical twisty there’s a couple of overtaking spots but they are the same for everybody so we’ve experienced all those drivers especially those who have been here back in 2018 and 2019 they know how to deal with this track and uh has really put you in sometimes a very difficult position to try to make a difference in shorter races as it is right now yeah certainly does well on this final lap of the race and luzio looks calm and controlled here V Swan there in second place I don’t think it’s going to have the chance to get through out of the final Corner they go first race of the day and it goes to Marcus luzio cross the line the current championship leader back on form after deploying that fresh set of tires but again now how is he going to have to deal with the rest of the day knowing that they are now relatively well used V musan finishing in second place ahead of Danny kinini Q Lee finishing in P4 ahead of Ruben Moyer at the end of that one the top five will go over the full classifications at the end of course uh with those provisional results of course nothing is uh marked in stone until any postrace penalties are applied and they’ll go through scrutineering welcome one and all from around the world if you are joining us on the live chat welcome if you are watching from anywhere around the world do uh do let us know you can uh chat to me on Instagram if you want you can go to Anthony Jordan official on Instagram and you can drop me a message and uh tell me where you watching from it’ be great to hear from some people out there there’s a full look at the classifications at the end of that one luzio from Zan then it is karini from Q Lee MOA from aluia Mickey blascos finishing a p7 ahead of leonado Loni then it’s Adam rahale Manuel Vagner rier Rasel Hank vuk then it’s Max hetel Nicholas H then it’s Alexander rout Robbie Buckley suan Zari rayma Blanc Carl lard and it is yanek renmark ahead of Mark Granada Morgan kitsen head of Juan Pablo Gerard then it’s Lutz oenbrink head of Lewis to Matthew vanderbrook finishing in 26th Place ahead of Jiro van dur finishes in 27th Place Mato B finishing in 28 ahead of Freddy Howley three retirements Maxim blon Shan Miguel Silva and Lawrence sash all out of that race uh during the opening stages of it well the first of the qualifying Heats is done qualifying heat B versus D will be coming up soon and we go on board with Ruben moer this is what they have to go through after each one of the race uh over the way Bridge of course any gram of weight underneath the minimum weight and you’re instantly taken out of that one there’s your race winner Marcus lizio uh can imagine probably happy with that result but still maybe not fully satisfied with how the weekend is going for him let’s take a look at the highlights from that one see Danny karini just having a quick chat there with Vil mvan starting right behind it was a good start for karini Moyer on the outside there trying to get back around the outside you can see slots into third place later on uh in that race or on this opening lap finding that way through and getting back up into P2 yellow flags would come out at the back that would be for the the Falcon of Lawrence sash unfortunately out of the race there was Mo’s move for P2 on that opening lap another angle of it there just down the inside of Phil mvan finding uh that Gap and just just pushing his way through MOA though not able to hold on to the lead as Swan back down the inside through turn number nine would retake that position then it would be the charge of uh the K lead driver coming through for the Ian’s Grand Prix racing team then again another look at this one down the inside because this was when Marcus luzio started to go on the attack just down the inside there that fresh set of ties being deployed and he was just able to just pick one driver at a time just take another one take another one take another one all the way throughout that one another angle there through turn number two well delivered well timed uh but again he’s got to be careful uh because he’s deployed that fresh set of TI really really early on in the weekend and now he’s going to have to babysit that Set uh through the whole of today and today is a really really long and hot day of racing uh so that is going to be a big challenge but the check flag would come out it would go the way of Marcus luto he’ll be happy with that one but again he needs to keep those wins coming after not a great qualifying he’s outside the qualifying Heats phase and he needs those Championship points to stay ahead of Danny karini but karini he’s loving this because he’s had brilliant qualifying and he’s right in that sharp position senior X3 qualifying heat B and D is coming up next and well again we’re looking forward to this one this is going to be a tight one for many of the drivers again close in qualifying uh all the way throughout this one but uh a really really strong performance for all the drivers so Sam fer heyen fastest in his group in group b uh Group D though uh Joseph Smith again really impressive drive from Joseph Smith in time qualifying qualifying Heats for him second in his first one went exactly how he wanted qualifying heat to though for him uh yesterday didn’t go his way gon P30 after retirement yeah definitely notot the results the solo result you want to get your weekend started that’s for sure and he’s not the only one on this GD who run through some difficult results and we have a lot of penalties as well that have been given out by the officials yesterday due to uh certainly uh errors on track but also frontf firing misplacements and uh we’ll get through the Grid in a moment but before that let’s hear from one of the protagonists we got a chance to talk to yesterday after his qualifying effort it will be starting from the front of the grid this is Joseph Smith at the interview s well done to you that was a very strong effort in qualifying P1 of your group but you missed overall pole for 4,000 of a second how do you feel about that yeah I L make a little mistake in chicane but it was a a very good lab and yeah it is uh it was a good lab and very um I said um I do my lab and yeah the engine was good C fi good and uh yeah L was the level was very good and yeah there going to be a very close battle between you and the rest of the field Danny up there but you very close on a track like vasor very fast but still very tight how do you expect yeah turn one is an excit excited start but we still see how how it goes on the first race but yeah I’m very excited this and so are we best of luck to you thank you mate well good stuff to hear there from Sam van heyen starting this one on P position again yesterday probably not the best results he would have won to be 12 in his first qualifying heat uh retirement in his second 29th third qualifying heat though uh was a P4 uh for Sam Vander Heiden so again the the pace is there he’s got what he needs qualifying was good again so again it’s just a case of putting it all together uh in today’s races it is a tough challenge he’s got some really quick Pilots starting all around him in the likes of Kevin aninga right behind uh David Duru had good results yesterday and Joseph Smith now uh Group B and D who are out in this one group b yesterday have done three qualifying heat so their tires are going to be one full qualifying heat uh worse off than the drivers starting in group D there is Joseph Smith on your screen uh again second and a 30th yesterday after retirement David Tran starting just behind third and then a 31st uh in his second eight with a retirement so again for a lot of drivers it’s been a it’s been an up and down weekend no one’s been a solid performer out there so uh again it’s just really going to be a a tough time of what uh what we’re going to expect to see throughout the rest of the day uh there is a look at what you can expect to see coming up soon you’ve got the qualifying EB andd coming up next at around 20 seconds time uh then we head to groups E and F then we head to the Juniors and then the minis then we go for the second rotation of senior races for today with groups B and G A and F and then c and e back to Juniors again later on it’s just a case of all of that throughout the day uh halfway through the day as well when we finished the second rotation of uh senior races we go to the lunch break and again a reminder for anyone who’s watching on YouTube uh the broadcast will end at that point and we’ll go right now the carts are going but Sam vaner heyen has not gone there his engine is not started right then let’s go through the starting lineup sanah heyen who would be starting on pole position but he stuck on that dummy grid uh we have Joseph Smith alongside kin lantinga and David dran go from row two ahead of Andy rattel and Luca baton on Row three mat V kirov and matus barber round out row four ahead of Daniel ginard and Nando vik Obama on row five they give us our top 10 Luna CL and AK counter and go from row six ham alz and Peter Siller on row seven head of Philip senson and Natalia Granada on row eight on row nine we have Max aen brick as well as W Hoy l Johnson Cole and Maximo Raa Silva row 11 Lin and out white matis Mout and malato 12 Marcel maich and Eric westow 13 Nicholas simik and Victor kurala on row 14 L no and Marco pizol on row 15 row 16 karti and Luka Ora 32 drivers onto the track B versus D and one again we go through 11 laps and the first winner of the day Marcus loser for the first time this weekend let’s see what siden will be able to do you heard in an interview is more and anger certainly to make a difference here in vus dorf certainly not the name that uh we could have expected at the Forefront in qualifying so far this season Joseph Smith by his side as the Victor Lane driver will try to maybe take advantage on the outside line coming to the very fast turn number one where they reach about 115 120 km an hour all the way down to the heavy breaking point of turn number two as J Missi best results so far a second place and a fourth for S vanderen who did have the Best of Run in two of his races 12 and 29 after penalty so s vanderen more than ever needs that strong result to get his day going certainly does drivers make their way way down the back straight over the uh the hump on the back straight there that is exactly where the red line is the marshals indicating that as well uh the Fantastic Marshals here at wackersdorf providing the drivers with a great amount of safety there grid nice and slow formed up as we head into the tram lines as the drivers head to race director Martin Bean to get them going here now s van heyen is on track there which is good he got it started and he’s at the front good to see really slow really bunched up up here as the revs raise and the lights go green uh we are away and racing and it’s not a good start there for Vander hyen he loses lead almost immediately but watch David dran around the outside draan trying to go for the lead cannot do it he stays there and he drops down he drops down now and he’s side by side with his teammate here I think a Luca Paton who fights his way through one of the Panos running wide in the exit that possibly could be Andy rattel as the rest of the field go through Luna CL as well having a good race as the rest of the field make their way through it is still uh Joseph Smith who leads the way sanah heyen defending for second place here and is that anything to do with the fact that that engine did not start on that dummy grid is he nursing a potential issue with that engine yeah we’re going to have to keep an eye on that as some of drivers already trying to line themselves up into the last turn very fast turn number 11 and the carrying the momentum is important in order to take the STI stream into the fast finish tra on inside dragon on ven that’s beautifully made from the Zaki zanki Motorsport driver as s Vena is going to have to respond to that quite quickly otherwise Joseph Smith will be able to pull away that’s a perfect start in opening lap for Joseph Smith indeed and second onto the grid fourth place for luuka in front of marberg mat vov who definitely need a strong result as well for him as well the ban driver who big S yeah beautifully made and 243 of Luca joining his teammate up into third place yeah tell you about the Zan motorport drivers really on the PA here in Germany and once again proof that we’re going to have to come with them until the end of the weekend but for S unfortunately pass himself down to P4 with Bar B oh on the inside in turn number one look at that from David Dragon what a move that’s the first time that we get to see that in racing mode this weekend so far but David Dragon just put himself on the inside between the curb and Joseph Smith there was no nothing that Joseph Smith could have done to prevent that from happening otherwise that could have been a contact he’s going to have to keep his head down and try to stay Within Reach from Dragon but lovely move that was from the zanki motorport driver certainly was using that slipstream down the 230 M main straight to his Advantage there now Smith into second place is still latched onto the back of that one but we said it earlier on the zanki Motorsport package absolutely superb this weekend have been right on that pace running on the Tony Kart chassis over the course of this weekend but see what luuka Paton could do now up three places can Luca now close in as well zat heyen still there in P4 only dropped down three places Marius Barber’s had a good race up three currently now in P5 Maris Barber being plagued uh with the bad results over the course of this weekend p17 after a penalty in the first qualifying heat p23 after a penalty in the second qualifying heat so again needs this result here as pace is good as pace is on it he just needs to maintain it now P5 for Marius Barber Rell still there in p6e of cin uh then it’s lantinga in eighth place uh Vander kirov in Ninth Place ahead of Hamza alz who rounds out the top 10 biggest mover at the moment Kean GTI who again needs needs good results this weekend uh is into 21st place and well that’s not gone well at all uh for the 372 on track uh that’s gone terribly wrong indeed that is uh Marcel mati evich for Ian’s Grand Prix racing team now right at the back of the field so yeah that is not sure what happened there but clearly something happening uh on the exit of turn number 10 uh we go on to lap five and and at the moment Hy counter fastest driver on circuit 50. 612 and purple in sector one dra’s gone purple 62 that got taken away from Andy rattel and uh cin can’t follow that one now I think there’s been more drama out on circuit because tumbling down the order matz Vander kirov and Hamer alz have crossed the line now in 25th and 26th but Vander kirov has gone to the back of the grid I think they’ve had some some real problems there now there you can see counterd has actually deployed a fresh set of tires on the left hand side of his card so that will be an indicator of why he’s setting those fastest times that uh he’s pushing forward in this one again using those tires a lot of drivers deploying G the fresh boots really early on the weekend yes indeed andalan is not the only one we have L kin the young freshman competing this weekend with the hono orasin team and he was starting from 21st on the grid and he has a full new set of tires we come in let’s see where he stands in the classification at the moment 12 places G up to p 11 pressure set of tires as well for Luka noow as well as for Luca Ora it makes a lot of sense even though it’s quite early uh for day two for some drivers at the back end of the classification after difficult qualifying that they were not able to translate into good result it makes sense for them to put on fresh a set or half a set to try to improve on the performance when it comes to contenders on a higher rank onto the grid like we’ve seen with Marcus luio or Anki calan is one of the big boys is playing at the Forefront at least he has the skills and the pace we’ve seen it again scoring podiums last season in the iami EUR series and at this point an C have the best off start oh what happens there for the 263 Natalia Granada oh that’s quite a shame for the iron Dame Grenada running into some trouble but the look at it it’s just a finish off well an set of boots half of it two new two new tires and he’s been able to translate that into base climbing five places up to p7 as Nella Granada hopefully a race won’t be just uh ending there yes indeed back here at the front and the battle for the lead not over just yet Wesley de go just received a warning flag as well so uh that will not be well received uh yeah draan leading the way Joseph Smith though right on that rear bumper uh is still piling on that pressure a little bit here now remember Smith and draan both have only done two qualifying heat races that is why I think their pace is a little bit faster than the likes of Vander heyen and lating and rattel they’ve all done already three races this is their fourth race so the tires are more used uh that will be why but right here Joseph Smith really looking strong right now uh still V kirov yeah is a retirement Granado I think has pulled it into uh h f as well now Matti evic still running down in 30th Place so they definitely had a problem out on circuit still no change between these top two as they negotiate their way around now heading in towards the chicane of turn seven and eight don’t want to run it out wide there that big exit curb really can catch a driver out there’s a replay of well that’s Natalia Granada going through ah now what this is what happened uh to Marcel mati evich so squeezed out wide there and yeah clearly not happy and a little bit of frustration there again big sends down the inside all the way throughout that is Granada yeah on the inside and I think what happens there I think it may be just mechanical yeah we don’t get to see clearly but she’s well she was in the middle of the pack trying to do her best finding her way through but gr unfortunately all the way down as a way back with the leaders David Dragon Joseph Smith split by two 210 of a second and the ratel in the meantime with they are the fastest La in the race 50.1 still in P5 the French driver from Pantano as uh we’re about to conclude this race already heading into lap 11 very soon and there’s not a a lot of time remaining on the table for Joseph Smith to try to switch those positions he did that in the opening lap before Dragon was able to uh take the leading Place back to with that beautiful move in on the inside of turn number one I don’t think that J Miss at least won’t be able to repeat that same move is a little bit too far missing a little bit of pace and traction outside of the last turn but that could be a different story for the back between Luka and ven the PO CER certainly must feel frustrated not to have been able to translate that result and uh sometimes those races short in distance are often built within the opening stages oh a little bit wide going de Dragon just in the on the entry of the ch look at those close shots as we are pretty much on board with those youngsters of the senior class just two corners left for D Dragon looking over his shoulder you never know we’ve seen Dives run inside of those two turns before we might seen we might see a lot of them once again throughout the day and until Sunday but for now that will do the job for D Dragon taking a win for race two of the day that’s uh the first win of the weekend for David Dragon second win win should I say and a fourth for zanki Motorsport heading to the tour of Danny Carin so it’s four win for the same Italian team dragan win number two from Joseph Smith Andy ratel in third place from s ven Luca calan Bar vinga k and l k your top 10 well indeed as those drivers head back to uh Ark fer a good results all the way throughout well we’ll see what happens in the latter half of the day David dran certainly will be happy with that result Joseph Smith finishing in P2 then ahead of anel svah heyen ahead of Luka Paton calan and Marius Barry kin lantinga ahead of Dan ginard finishing in P9 uh and then it was lan finishing in P10 Peter Stiller from Luna K maxel balber finishing in 13th Place ahead of Asen brck Max aen brck that is Mattis m rounding up top 15 then it’s Philip senton Louie Johnson Co Marlon

23rd Place ahead of Victor K ham alz head of Vice uh head of Kian G Luke newow head of Marco Pista and Marcel Matti the 30 finishes in that race two retirements Natalia Granada and PES Vander kirkov unfortunately out of the race in that one uh two of the morning races down for senior x30 there is one more to go with groups E and F before we head to the junior categories next uh but there David Duran making his way in gets himself checked out on the scales and the team there very quickly prompting helping him out there the weather conditions uh getting warmer as the day goes on we’re already at 23° at this time of the morning uh 20 10 local time let’s take you through the starting highlights of that one initially good getaway for Joseph Smith there gam breaking away got the start exactly what he needed at the start of that race yeah definitely so on the inside of turn number two as it was a pretty good getaway from everybody here into the field as uh Jose Smith would conclude that opening lap into the lead so driver is trying to find different racing lines in order to shape up the rest of of the race one the run the inside of turn number four was going the 245 of David Dragon already building on his race then go according to plan for S V and the p c who quickly lost ground as R the inside was going to 243 of LCA Boni another strong zank Motorsport into the race getting ahead of the P City ven from caria racing then there was that move as early as lap number two R ins side of turn number one the door was slightly too wide open by Joseph Smith unfortunately that was enough for the Romanian to find himself on to the lead then drama for the 372 unfortunately for Marcel maich was pushed a little bit on the outside of turn number 10 Scrappy race as well that would end prematurely unfortunately for natella Granada the iron Dame the iron Dames was supposed to compete this weekend as well in spa for the GT 24 hours unfortunately not able to do so so all the support goes to natala Granada this time around in the I Euro series hopefully next few races will be more successful and fruitful in terms of results and in the end despite a 310 Gap and a a little bit of pressure by Joseph Smith it was enough for de Dragon to seal the deal and take his second win of the weekend so far that’s three win and instead of four a little correction for myself for zanki Motorsport one win for Dan kinini and two for David Dragon so far well speaking of correcting ourselves I’m going to correct myself completely about that previous race and Group D they’ve actually had three qualifying they had three yesterday uh and that’s why I think we’re getting confused on the results there from David dran yes he did have a win in his third qualifying heat he had a 31st and retirement in his second qualifying Heat yesterday that’s where the confusions come from so apologies for that ladies and gentlemen but uh we do head over to the next group uh we’re going to take a short break in a few moments time qualifying group enf is coming up next racing Spirit was born out of the need to create a clothing line that could embody the passion and the experience that OMP

market well welcome back uh ladies and gentlemen we are back back with the racing that is coming up very very soon uh there you can see the grid getting lined themselves up ready to go uh there on your screen Ricardo Ferrari uh joining us for round three uh great to see Ricardo Ferrari here winner of the francha round uh it was a wild card going into that weekend this time he is with us for the championship and currently sits third in that Championship after only competing in one round he missed out on zuera the first round of the championship but he did such a mega round at round two uh he uh he is right there so uh great to see him here uh and some relatively decent results for as well P9 uh P5 uh but then an 18th after a penalty in h the second qualifying heat has deployed fresh set of tires on the left hand side of the cart so again this is going to be an interesting one as he’s got Finn mlin starting alongside who has at the moment had a qualifying Heat win and a second and leads the intermediate classifications a Gonzalez who we’ve got a live on board camera with for this one who’s had two qualifying Heat wins so far this weekend starts on the second row of the grid we’ll have Austin Gail alongside kahal Clark and K Nelson round out row number three with Phil stranger and Mattis Bobb on row four Alex masado and Clement utan on row five ahead of Colin vurger and Mato zanki on row six and it’s Oto pukan in and Geor on row seven Fred Green and Rocco Kio ran out row number eight and Fred Green yesterday having a second place finish in his from all the way back under the 15th spot the grid so let’s see what he can do this time around from 15 on the grid RO number nine will be Tobin grundal and Al B number 10 alexand B and Conor Grant followed by liser Tomas n and chrisan Maxson PID andano van vanber I’ll get it right as we have 30 drivers onto the GD into the formation lap this will conclude the first rotation of senior races this morning then we will switch to genius The Minis and back with the seniors before the lunch break then uh races this morning 14 this afternoon 24 in total keep in mind as well and that’s important if you’re following us through the live stream we have a first live stream for the morning and we’ll have a second one uh starting just after for the afternoon on YouTube these are two different links one after the other very simple don’t forget to switch from one to the other to keep following the action here at the P vas is the classification as it stands f m CLE two points with one win for the young Irish driver from vdk starting on the second place on that grid is from two points clear from Zan and we have gay in four third place in front of Dan Carini W and Juan alua that’s for your top six at the moment keep in mind that this will change through the course of the qualifying races 10 points awarded to the leader of the classification at the end of the qualifying Heats 25 for the final 35 in total and this is very close nothing is done for the chase for the title in the senior class certainly isn’t drivers making their way into the tram lines lights go green and we are away and racing good start for Ricardo Ferrari but it’s a better start for mclocklin as he sweeps the outside line gets the jump here mclocklin Gale nilson all getting through Ricardo Ferrari has dropped down I think to about P 6 P4 at the moment P5 actually he’s back he’s fought back now as well as he all battles his way through it wasn’t a good start from that inside row they all struggled to get away and I think actually yo Gonzalez that’s there in second place the rest of the field gets through as right at the back of the field there that’s an absolutely fantastic move for alelo vaner Vander van overberger there who’s pushed his way through a Brant move yes indeed it was as the pressure is mounting right now for second place with Alo Gonzalez was trying to make his bait ahead of tin gaale as well for the battle for second here’s a look at the gaps as we’re on board with El Gonzalez Ortin Gage just in front of him can he try to make his bit on the inside of tetu that’s one of the most popular oh and he losing a Bas instead of gaining one this is good Nelson from D racing beautifully may run inside you see that is trying to fight back yes he does on board with alen Gonzalez with his B Machine as he lost the place for the space of a few meters only before getting back into contention into the chicane clipping the curb not too aggressive to keep the momentum going protect his position while trying to G another one as the 359 of Ricardo Ferrari is getting ahead of Alex Machado taking with him Phil strange up into P4 so it’s changing left and right every lap as we’re about to conclude lap number two that is with f mlan in the lead half of a second already that the Irish driver has been building so far H gain second oh and trouble I’m afraid for the 400 this is Mark Schmid from SS Motorsport is race coming to an end yeah that is a big shame and uh yeah not the way you want to see a driver end their first race of the day three wide as they go down in towards turn number uh four on circuit that is one of the main over taking opportunities on the circuit and we saw many overtakes there you’re seeing a big uh change of driver Fields there you see kahal Clark there youve got the zanki Motorsport of Colin berenberg Oto pukin in uh in there as well this is a little higher up in the field at the moment that is Clan battling with mat zanki for zanki Motorsports as they make their way through down in towards the final corner so mclin’s broken away now at the front Gail’s there Gonzalez though is going to look to the inside and says thank you very much and moves up into second place in this race now has he got the pace right now to close up to Finn mclocklin uh looking at the sector times and that one just there I would say probably has got the pace fastest up the race 50. 678 uh now how much faster was that well that was 410 faster than Finn mclocklin on that previous lap alone that’s absolutely astonishing pace prelo Gonzalez yeah that’s going to be an interesting Run for the spin and uh if those two want to want to keep working together well we might see four even two yeah three or even four Drive battle coming away very soon as f mlin is leading away so uh we’ll keep an eye on this one the Gap still holding strong between the two but the Gap already down to uh 210 of a second so El Gonzalez right now really piling on the pressure here to mclin glin having the win in a second yesterday I did catch up with him a little bit and he was saying that you know it was a you know it was a silly second place that he got he said you know I let the position go I could have had it I could have had the win on that one but you know it was one of those so again he’s he’s going to find himself in this situation here and that’s a big lunch from a big way back live on board with ELO Gonzalez who takes the lead of this race that is an absolutely outrageous overtake into the breaking zone of turn number nine brilliant to see uh but now that’s caught mclocklin sleeping a little bit here mclocklin checks over the shoulder to see what’s going on behind can see that he has got gaale he has got Ricardo Ferrari who is the fastest driver now on circuit with that fresh set of tires on the left hand side of his C who now gets up into third place as Ricard Ferrari is now on the recovery charge yeah Ric Ferrari that you fought for a moment we had lost in battle for the lead back into battle certainly just made his way past htin Gale cut a bit napping as well now it’s done to f m to try to switch the position is very threatening at the moment the Y driver one win under the bag as AO Gonzalez now finds himself in the position of leading that race we’re going to see that again spot on on board of the spish dri look how far back yeah a very late breaking point and uh you could maybe feel for f mlin as you said was C napping a little bit he opened the door taking the racing line Maybe saw that coming could have been a slight touch between the two I mean from that perspective it looks like that but we make it wrong as uh Elan Gonzalez was saying thank you goodbye I’m in front now I’m the one change again and a change again F Makin losing another place to Ricardo Ferrari don’t forget that Ricardo is on a strong Pace thanks to half of a set of new tires pressure boost on the left side that might help him out indeed as is proving right now getting ahead of fil M oin we’re going to see that again in turn number two again as we said one of the certainly most popular SP overtaking among the drivers and it was neat and clean from reg Ferrari up into P2 yep indeed no drama between the two at all and now is going on to chase El Gonzalez so uh we will keep an eye on this battle as that one progresses mlin still there in third uh now with that position change for ML Vil mvan would take the lead of the intermediate classifications by one point as Ricardo Ferrari sets another fastest lap of the race uh but yeah that certainly changes that up a little bit there is a look at the intermediate classification on your screen uh Swan from a Glock and carenini from Vice aluya from Gail and Austin Gail is in this one still he’s there P4 any more position takes in this one could benefit himself even more in this race uh masado is still there just behind uh good still running for that one for the TB cut team one TB cut driver though who has not had a good run in this race uh is Clement utan earlier on a few laps ago I saw his name tumble down the order unfortunately so clearly he’s had dramas out on the circuit but he’s alongside his teammate and alongside here as well down the inside Alex Machado takes third play or takes fourth place I should say against Austin Gail Gale down to P5 it’s not the end of the world they’re still contention here at the front as again Ricardo Ferrari is closing in on Gonzalez but mclin’s found Pace again he’s gone purple in sector one as he’s going to try and reack and a breakdown there no that’s just a driver going slowly on the track that’s loua now Lou Essa has actually received a technical flag in this race uh and is’s on track now as that Essa has come into the pit Lane and was resolved that technical flag issue and has gone back out to the Circuit now but unfortunately it’s got an entire pack of CS coming up behind yeah and you can see him on the left side he’s going to have to everybody through that’s part of the rules you can cannot get in the way of the leaders but he just did that according to the book now we’re here with the 43 this for the back this is strange nson barie and mat zanki in P9 results out of turn number two F mlin another fastest lap in this race trying to get as close as possible from mlo Ferrari going to keep a close watch as well on the battle for the win because nothing is done in concrete just yet even though time is running out back here with AO Gonzalez Ricardo Ferrari from Zan Motorsport with a different and a very interesting Livery as mlin eyeing both of them just from P3 marad Gale lost momentum in the past two laps not quite able to catch up final La that is ladies and gents and 3/10 of a second between el Gonzalez ero Ferrari is the P racing driver on board outside of turn number two trying not to creep the CB too much on the inside of turn number three same thing for turn number four second best spot for overtaking certainly on that race that race track on the outside going quite wide onto the curb to really align yourself into the right and left of chane into turn number nine turn number 10 this is the last part of the track full of air pins bit like lonato that’s of G quick look at over shoulder and you could see that was interesting for melan Gonzalez he was saying to Rico Ferrari think about this do not try anything unwise and in the end checker flag gon Gonzalez takes the win the first of the day for the B racing driver and for Eloy that’s win number two that is no three number three yes indeed two wins yesterday third win for Alon Gonzalez my apologies as he was saying to Ferrari just one corner to go mate let’s keep it real let’s keep it together there’s no point trying to for you to try to overtake me the last few meters before the check a flag this is just still a qualifying heat we’ll see about that into the final but uh they finished in that order alen Gonzalez win number three from the Ferrari in Fon mckin done in P3 yes indeed Mas finishing in P4 ahead of Austin G and you’re probably wondering if you’re looking at the live timing which you can uh view as well if you head to the RJC or the the I Ami Euro series uh website you can see the live timing link you can click on that and you can see all the live timing available to you which includes the qualifying heat probably wondering why does ELO Gonzalez not sit within the top eight despite the fact that he’s had three qualifying Heat wins out of four though one of those races was p19 after a post rise penalty that is why he doesn’t sit within the top eight but he sits just outside at I supect probably about 9th or 10th in that order there’s a look then at the full results at the end of that one uh like I was saying the top five Mattis bar finishing in P6 ahead of f Nelson mat zanki ahead of kahal Clark Philip Phil stranger finishing in P10 ahead of Fred Green then it’s Otto pukin ahead of Connor Grant Rocco Kio ahead of Colin venberg finishing in p15 clis nade ahead of George Nassar beram sash ahead of turbin gundal who finishes in 19th Place toaso Gioni finishing in 20th let’s have a look at the highlights from that one Ricardo F not getting the getaway and I think getting squeezed a little bit there uh as it kind of pinch pointed into that second of The Kinks before they get towards turn number uh one yeah just getting swamped back so not able to get the temperature into those times in the early stages certainly came back in that race did R Ferrari his on board with ELO Gonzalez started just behind this might give us a really good show of actually what happened there yeah just yeah getting squeezed onto that grass from the El Gonzalez not giving any space there just saying I want to uh gain positioned here and a little bit of contact there as one of the interesting onboard view as Gonzalez was able to keep it real onto the track for being overtaken by by your gaale atin Gail who had a good start to his race before finishing down to P5 it was here that El Gonzalez started his climb up to P1 in the end of this race around the inside of turn number four as uh we’ve seen overtaking a plenty especially turn number two turn number nine as well a little bit in turn number four as we haven’t seen yet turn number one just one occasion Herer has run inside and as I said that that’s the second time that we get to see alen Gonzalez I mean the driver getting R the inside of turn number one and ELO Gonzalez just did that beautiy made for P2 chasing F mlin at this point on lap number four out of 11 we’re still the leader of this qualifying race before that moment the move very late breaking the door was slightly open it was enough for ELO Gonzalez to sneak himself on the inside saying thank you as he goes by we thought for a moment that F mlin would have the pace just to switch positions but it wasn’t the case afterwards with G Ferrari in just a few moments making his way through there he is the Italian first on Austin Gale op3 before he would keep on attacking and making the same move on F one lap later and uh that would be the end of this run though El Gonzalez was next but he would have missed one tiny T of a second as the back as well we had Alex masado making his way past Austin Gale again on the same Corner Dale at some point was fighting for the win before tuming down to the5 and in the end it was enough for Alon Gonzalez to take win number three out of four but as you said Anthony is not is nowhere to be seen within the top eight due to a p19 finish yesterday so still a lot of work to be done but so far so good for Elon Gonzalez who we’re going to have to include in the circles of top favorites in the battle for the win later on this weekend such a shame that he had a difficult yesterday otherwise it would be leading the overall provisional classification of the senior class we’re going to put the seniors aside for a moment and for the first time ladies and gents we’re going to have the pleasure of following the genius and the for the first time on track this weekend two races to start with the Juniors 2 for The Minis then back to the Juniors back to the seniors sorry and then we will see those two classes once again through the afternoon as the genius and the Mini have to go through three qualifying races each uh to get themselves a ticket on the way to the super heat and the final on Sunday afternoon so the first race coming up in the junior class we’ll see the groups a versus B 3 minutes on the clock before we get going there is Harrison Mackey on your screen with brother Lewis Mackey alongside on the spanners ready for this one uh Harrison Mackey absolutely superb qualifying session for him he was about 2/10 faster than any other driver uh out in the session and uh well it was a purple sectors in all three sectors on the lap it was not a purple one or a purple three all three absolutely perfect and we caught up with him after that session here’s what he had to to say Harrison Macky well done to you in wers dorf this is your second poll of the year in the I EUR series how does that feel well it’s great it’s great that we’re shown great performance this year so far and I hope to keep it for rest of year as well how did it go actually in the qualifying because the uh track is narrow technical the gaps are tight as well competition is high it’s definitely now I like this track it’s got the long straight button it’s loads of Corners as well so I think it’s going to be great for the racing as well with one ball in the bag still racist to come this weekend but feeling confident yeah I think if we can do the same as French Court I’ll do my best to do that but we got to just see how how it goes and obviously the main one’s the final so we’ll wait till then good stuff best Stu Lu to you thank you well they great to hear from Harrison Mackey starting this one on the front row of the grid we’ll have the close company of Didia starting alongside uh there is Didia on another one of the fusion carts there for Fusion Motorsport uh but again getting themselves ready fusion really having a great showing here because you can see they’re just behind D is sck maker on another one of the fusion carts uh just putting himself on so Championship standing to this one the closest Championship we’ve seen at this stage of a season one point separates the top two and that top two is Harrison Mackey and Ty butley Buckley starting this one right behind Harrison Mackey so again that’s going to be an interesting one they can see the hardworking Marshals out on the circuit on all of the points again we say at every single race weekend we go to he could not go racing without that hardworking marshalling team who makes sure the drivers stay nice and safe out on the circuit there on your screen for the mbat racing team Ty butley uh from Ireland starting this one on the second row of the grid his championship rival is right there Harrison Macky in front of him obviously right now there are no Championship points uh up for grabs for this very race but after all the qualifying hits they have over the course of today there are Championship points up for grabs and quite literally one point will make the difference between who leads and who doesn’t so uh that’s going to make it very interesting right then engines get fired up let’s see through the starting lineup then for the first Junior x30 heat of the day Harrison macki and Didia cre starting on row number one t butley and stick the maker on row two ahead of Alex vinera and Elvis kakowski on row number three Yus Moulder and NIS Malik round out row four head of Aston sharp and Katrina e on row five Angelina Simmons and mor Mo who round out row number six row number seven we’ll see Lou baser and Andre galimberti then we have David Muna and Nat Johnstone followed by Evan pcel and Daniel Oliver Sanchez s eer and Bruno mulu row number 10 followed by really kram and we have Noah nokan and Yung Rana a total of 23 drivers onto the track in this junior category we have a total of 48 drivers between 12 and 14 years of age competing this week in the v DWF and as you can see the conditions are absolutely fantastic with blue skies Sun high as well above our heads the temperatures as much 25° already as it’s only a quart 11 local time here in Germany yesterday was hot a little bit a little bit of rain as well at some point into one of the qualif races we had to put out the red flag unfortunately with two laps from the Finish due to those difficult conditions it was pouring rain for just a few minutes and then the track was drying out in a matter of seconds and it put some drivers and the mechanics into some sort of discomfort that’s for sure so far so good and in terms of temperatures and weather conditions we should be absolutely uh on point throughout the the today tomorrow it might be another story when we’re not there yet a lot of qu finger races to grow through as you can see all Highs are very much onto the track with a lot of cameras surrounding the cirquit with jna fala Tara Blanco and Mikel Rin all three of risk control or Personnel uh on the backside of the track and these are the ones responsible for everything that’s happening on track making decisions and uh sometimes giving out the harsh penalties to some of the drivers who deserve it exactly that for is over and the race has started the first Junior x30 race of the weekend and it’s a brilliant start for that inside row it is Macky and Buckley who break away at the front as the field all Scrabble for positions there’s a a Victory Lane up on two wheels there in the background that might have been Louis Raz unfortunately who was lost out in that race but we’ll find out who tumbles down the order uh there’s more drums as well I think Katrina e may have had an issue out there lo baz is as well and Andrea galimberti also having issues on circuit uh but I think the dri managing to get going as well back at the front here Macky leads the way there is Buckley who’s there in second place and well I don’t see any more fusions in that area now ah now that is the 100 that is Katrina e uh who is in front of this pack now so I’m not sure how she got there but she’s going to have to get right out of the way here because she is not in the lead of that race she is missed out in half the circuit I’m not sure how she’s done that she must have gone across the track there at the exit of turn two or maybe a late start for krina hey we didn’t get to see that clearly maybe a replay might have a s but as a result as you said she’s having to let everybody through and take your place back at the back end of the grid so it won’t be the easiest of race unfortunately for her as uh she was uh starting from P 10 on the grid in the meantime TI Berkeley has run inside goes the 21 of Arison Maki 27 my apologies of just Moulder on Arison Maki for P2 watch out for the battle with the fusion drivers as well very much into mix not only Mai but also DJ CFT was one of the fastest in yesterday’s qualifying dri going around the inside into the last turn and making his bit ahead of Pinera beautifully M for CFT just behind his teammate and he keeps on going Arison Maki this time around as D CFT is being investigated oh that’s certainly no good news for him as he just pulled a beautiful move he’s about to lose the place once again to Alex P rinal who takes the positions back into P4 as Arison Maki another driver with the inside line taken in turn number one up into P3 and trying to do the same to just Moulder into second place watch out for the driver with the green Crush element not quite able to hold on to that position Arison Mak back into second yep nice move there but now okay they’ve they’ve decided right okay fine you lead it you try and push away uh because Buckley’s broken away at this point Alex bignett is trying to fight back as well down the inside through the final corner and he does get through a little bit of jostling there between the two of them and absolutely wheel tohe here Didia CEF and Y Moulder here and creef is going to get the advantage so does Aston sharp Angelina Simmons gets through as well as the entire field is all closed up here Elvis Kass is still there Riley cranham has gained 12 positions in this race and is right there in this battle that we’re watching right now he’s at the back of that battle but he’s still in it did theaker is there as well in P10 he’s not had the best getaway uh in this one uh Louis B uh fastest driver on the circuit who is well tumbled down the order just a little bit at this point uh but pushing his way through he’s currently uh in p21 in this race at the start of that race I don’t think it’s gone well there for NIS Malik he’s just tumbled down the order as well as he drops down to 21st place so I think he’s had an issue out on circuit for the George Gibbons Motorsport driver back here at the sharp end of the sticker still Buck leads macki petta then this battle here fourth place downwards it is Aston sharp Didia creef and Angelina Simmons Simmons right behind there on the MDC MDC with a brand new livery this weekend it’s white and fluorescent yellow as down the inside Didia says thank you very much to Aston sharp and moves up into P4 that brings in kowas it brings in STI D maker brings in cranham as well so a nice big battle Happening Here for P4 as petta now sets the fastest lap of the race Simmons down the inside and gets P sharp as well sharp now on the back foot having to deal with the likes of now Kowski who’s trying to go for the move Kowski also under pressure from the number 14 of s maker as wellas just went through outside of turn number 10 number 20 on your picture being surrounded by a SE of drivers is going to try to go for the move on Shar watch for the breaking pointed time number two oh there’s pretty much no space at all and contact I’m afraid unfortunately as sh was the biggest victim of this incident by the look of it wasn’t able to hold on to that position and it keeps on banging Wheels on the inside of T number four unfortunately for yeah sharp tumbling down all the way to P 10 as a result of that uh slight incident Willi might need to see that again in the replays afterwards but uh it was a rather aggressive move that’s the way to do it sometimes just to force your way through there was pretty much no space between the sharp and the curb but still s teshan marer all those drivers just went through taking advantage of that Gap that just open up on the outside of the number two we’ll get back to that in the meantime here’s the battle for the lead and potentially the win with Aron Maki taking the lead almost as the switch of position is realized by tight Berkley beautiful battle between those two don’t forget is only the battle for the win in qualifing race there only the battle for the overall title this year in the IM year series one point between the two at the advantage of Arison Maki there’s pretty much nothing between those two young contenders and Arison Maki response was TI Berkley in turn number nine again clean and watch out for p Pinera as well is going to be the third driver into that battle he sees the opportunity run inside of TI Bley Mak is shutting the door just before that rander does very fast an entry and he might lose actually momentum doing that Arison macki and finds himself under the pressure of not not not one not two but three drivers with didy CFT as well in the mix yes indeed it’s a four cut battle for the race lead here as everyone tries to hold on for their positions it’s Macky Buckley Panera and creef currently in that order C is looking like the strongest one here who currently sits in P4 trying to find his way past but not able to do so macki still holds on to the lead Buckley is trying to push himself forward here but it’s just not finding the Gap is not finding the exit speed that he needs right now but Di is right on the rear bumper uh but he says there don’t go for the move and uh well petta goes defensive now CR was trying to say there to him right keep going keep going don’t uh don’t defend on this final lap I’m not going to go for it again he’s he’s he’s employing there pinetta just go just go uh but he’s not going to listen Macky though exits out of the final Corner first win of the weekend and it goes to the Britain and the championship leader Harrison Mackey and Ty butley well I think this weekend is going to be a story of Two Tales here between the two of them Mackey ahead of Buckley at the end of that one today a superb end to their first race plenty more races for them to go but Macky I’m sure will be delighted with that one certainly wasn’t just a walk in the park for for him fell back dropped back at that point but really really pushed hard in that race Buckley finishing in second place ahead of Alex pinetta pinetta gaining two positions in that race a superb performance there for the young Spaniard ahead of Didia creef Angelina Simmons finishing in P5 six places gained brilliant race out of Elvis kakalis in P6 then it was the impressive drive from Riley cranham 14 plac his game to finish in p7 ahead of STI D maker Aston sharp Yus Moulder David Muna uh Evan pel Nat Johnson uh Daniel Oliver Sanchez and SAR eer rounding out the top 15 Mor Moore ahead of Yana Noah noin from Lou brazay then it was Bruno mulio head of NIS Malik and Andrea gam uh gamber finishing in 22nd Place Katrina e unfortunately retired at the end of that one uh knowing that well let’s save those tires let’s come back stronger in the next one uh maybe work out better in that there is your race winner though Harrison Macky uh and a fantastic win there but certainly to work hard on that one Gil yeah certainly it was a difficult battle and uh one tiny 10 of a second on the line between maky and TI bleay let’s see that once again is a replay of the start was a good getaway indeed from Aris Mar T Bley just on his tail couple of drivers as well from Fusion Motorsport trying to make their way around D CRI as well to find the best racing night into 10 two was a good getaway for pretty much everybody hero drivers fuming down a little bit onto the grass on the left side of your picture as uh we had a pretty strong start he would prove it until the end from Alex Pinera with the Gill chassis it’s not very often that we get to see this historic brand of the history of carding back on track gud always nice to see different colors as well and uh the G has been on top of performance so far this weekend lap number two has run the inside went just Moulder he had a pretty good start to his race the Victor driver before tling down the order another strong move from just on the 21 of Arison Maki it was before the British D would switch position and start its charge up in the front just MDA was in the mix but he would still chck a flag on the np10 at the moment when they switch position at least just m taking the positions from Arison Mak C on the outside of the span Alex P and then he was really suddenly moving left and right Maki Back In Contention M2 P2 just SM Ching to him let’s keep going I’m going to work with you let’s try to catch the leader t b at the time as some of them were trying as well to overtake in the last Corner the very fast right Ender so crucial for the momentum into the fast finish straight halfway through as the gaps were stabiliz stabilizing just a little bit as the 66 was making his way through Aston sharp anding his way he would finish down np9 on the inside another of the fusion strong performance uh it was the number 35 was n to make his b d CFT indeed would finish down into P4 yes indeed well that was only at the halfway point of the race as well and uh Aston sharp really started to get involved at this stage of the race the same as uh well all the drivers behind as well y Moulder and finishing there just behind as well who was fighting right at the front in that early stages there was sharp going wide there is y Moulder as well who had tucked in just behind on that one really pushing each other uh forward through that stage then this was the first attack for the lead change Macky down the inside through turn two outbreaking himself Buckley able to fight back then again down the inside through turn number nine and this time around getting it Sign Sealed and done P right behind uh running slightly wide there kicking up the dust now C pinera’s line here taking the normal racing line trying to get the switch back on Buckley and even tried it on Mackey that’s why Macky went defensive it wasn’t to defend from Buckley it was the attack from Pinera was absolutely brilliant start that brought in the likes of Didia who was able to close in and creep looking really strong at the end of that one but it would go the way of Harrison Macky head of his championship rival Ty butley like we were saying one Championship Point separates those two drivers into this weekend and that’s all going to boil down when we head to gank for the final round we’re going to take a short break don’t go anywhere the second of the qualifying Heats for uh x30 junor will be coming up next [Music] [Music] for [Music] [Music] that [Music] well welcome back ladies and gentlemen to round three of the IMI Euro series 2024 we are live here under the sunshine at wackersdorf in Germany and well we’re smashing through these qualifying Heats in the morning phase of the day uh three senior races down already plus one Junior and the second Junior race is about to take to the track there you can see qualifying heat C versus D lined up ready to go in this one Harrison Mackey just taking the win in that previous race puts himself in a really good position uh in that championship fight as he leads it from one point ahead of Ty butley who finished that race P2 so again that’s going to be a close championship fight all the way to the end I’m sure but qualifying heat C versus D on this one Benjamin manc starting this one on Pole Position we’ll have feder Rico Fidelity starting alongside there is Benjamin manc from Spain on the bur L chassis they’re getting himself uh ready to go for this one uh tense time uh for a lot of these drivers and there you can see actually the Swiss quote logo just on his uh visor there as well so Swiss quot one of the new partners to RJC here this weekend and if you do want to go see the uh the Swiss quote team as well they are here in the paddock you can go find them right next to the rgmc awning they’re under there and have a quick chat about Investment Banking as well so get involved in that one uh there is our race director Martin Bean watching over the proceedings getting ready to go uh and he’s enjoying a nice uh bit of sunshine here he hails from the land of Dubai so he’s used to warm conditions I’m uh surprised he’s not in a coat at the moment because usually he complains that it’s always too cold despite the fact that it’s in its mid-30s but uh there we go we’ll see on that one not long now to go until this race but technically tense time for I think these Juniors here uh now gam you know a lot of things have gone on this season it’s been a really close championship fight as well the closest that we have seen uh in many years at this stage of the weekend at this stage of a season you know when we head into a final round usually you know so well that let’s put it into this way last year going into the final round at gank we didn’t have a championship fight in junior X3 because it was uh your man Freddy Lloyd who had already won and he didn’t even take part in that round so he didn’t even need to do it so again seeing this one this sum around much much nicer field right then let’s take you through the starting lineup Benjamin Maniac starting on the front row the grid will have freder Rico SEL alongside Nikita nikov and Zack green going from row number two Toby Gail and Felipe rice going from Row three then it’s Quintin van lellan and sanir on row four Archie Owen and Constantine tit going from row five with mat melis and rock petta on row number six row seven we’ll see John Elder and jackob Basher followed by am burer karond the blast arker Chen benang gos and mat pero on R 10 R 11 chulan BB and Maxim Maxi egner 22 drivers in total into the formation lap and as you can see Iris Maki with one win in the bag leading the classification this will obviously evolve but let’s keep an eye on Benjamin manak because since the start of this year’s championship Benjamin manag was able to take a win already in the final on home soil at the opening round in Zera this has been an up and down season for Benjamin manak since he came out of Fran corta with no points at all so disastrous round two in Italy for benjaman manak unlike what happened in Spain so let’s see if he’s going to be able to get back on his feed and translate his performance and qualifying he was the first fastest overall into winning results three races to go through for each of those drivers in the junior class it starts right now for Benjamin manak who still is in P5 in the Championship still a long way down from Arison Maki our current leader at 51 Point 50 point for TI berley and 30 for benjaman manak from P5 so nothing is done yet when it comes to the championship battle and uh that starts now for benjaman manak as we’re on board with Toby Gail number 23 who will be starting from fifth on the grid on the inside just behind not only mahak manak but Nikita nikishov as well let’s see what he can do on the way to turn number one and especially the breaking point in turn number two exactly that well drivers get themselves formed up nice and cleanly so it looks like we’re good for a start first time of asking there you can see everyone well crowding the podium there to try and get a good view of the racing that you’re going to see here in the sunshine lights go green and we are racing great start from manac on that inside row but keep an eye on sad delity he gets swamped into the pack sadel is going to Tumble down the order just a little bit the inside row works better Nikita nikishov there into second place Gales on the outside he’s going to get squeezed down into around P4 P5 as Zack green looks down the inside Green’s not had the best getaway as well as he got caught behind swad delity so it is at the moment manac who leads away from Nikita nikishov and that looks to me uh like that may be Quinton van lellan on the Falcon cart that’s there in third place yeah Bri start from the Falcon driver as run inside goes the 52 of spati beautifully made can he hold on to that position into the next Corner no he can the 62 nikishov is back into P2 well that was a good try as the 23 toy gil on board running into the last sector on the inside of the Falcon rival the 54 on the left side of your picture that’s going to be a close call Kint Malon resisting and keeping that position alive as Benjamin manak is closing on the opening lap 7/10 of a second as R the inside a beautiful battle with the 114 squeezing in it was Arie Owens squeezing camon better a look of it on the outside of turn number two going to have to get back to that as we have the 23 into the mix Toby Gil yes indeed trying to climb back the field after losing a bit of momentum three places down he currently behind one of the fusions the 25 John Elder as well as Archie Owen who’s losing a place AR Owens switching back already oh and pushing his opponent slightly onto the grass but the fusion driver was able to hold on and lose a place while doing so that’s a hectic start of a race a very hectic start there but thankfully all of them on the circuit back here with the top three manc still leads the way ahead of Nikita nikishov s Del has listened I think to nikov on that one and has just said R okay I’m not going to keep attacking you here if you’ve got the pace that’s the ultimate question the Gap is 410 of a second and well confirmation there Nikita nikov fastest up of the race has got the pace here to try and close down Benjamin manak in the lead so we’ll keep an eye on that as that progresses green still there in P4 ahead of quiny vanell who’s up two places biggest mover in this race well there’s a couple of them uh adona is one yon Helder is another and a little further down in the order as well Julian bub also six places game felipo rice has not had a good start in this race has tumbled to P20 has dropped down four places there are look at the intermediate classifications uh obviously very basic at the moment that’s what you expect macki with a win and manac at the moment leading but by only 3/10 of a second green and Quinton van Noel and here I reckon they’re closing in on the two ahead here I think we could have a five cut battle for the race lead here G pass is left for Zack green taking K Mal and indeed closing in on the top three that’s going to be an interesting one as you can see they’re not attacking each other they are really trying to work together as uh the Gap with federo spati is at the moment slightly cing we’re going to have a CL look 7 7 wow there 70 cutting the track there and that is amelo burn so uh Burn’s going to have to be careful you can’t do that too many times so yeah R keeping a very close eye on it right this is closed in right now manac is under immense pressure from Nikita nikov nikov right on that rear bumper has actually dropped ad delity just behind he’s going to fall into the clutches of Zack green who’s closed in who himself has dropped Quintin van lelling so now we’re going to have two groups of two trying to go for the lead on this one as green retakes that fastest lap of the race [Applause] 51113 no change here just yet manac not going defensive Nikita nikof not attacking now is that because he knows that he’s got the likes of SEL and green behind and if he goes to the attack they will be right there and we’ll have four battle uh for the lead with a with half Race distance to go or is it just struggling to find the pace on this one like I say manak’s not going defensive he’s leaving the door open into every corner there’s an advantage here for Nikita nikof to go for the move but he’s choosing not to and that at the moment I think is a strange one cuz Fel and green who have closed up together are closing in there comes green down the inside change for third place and Z green certainly was uh feeling that the moment was right for him to make the move and he did the in number four green up into P3 bti down into P4 K malan wasn’t able to make the move as well and uh for the moment Zak green and Van Lan were working together towards the same objective but van Len dropping a bit of momentum half of a second behind the Falcon driver and uh would have he stayed just behind Zack green maybe would have been able to imitate the move and get the plays up in the classification is not the case unfortunately lap number six lap number seven seven that is of that eight lap race short distance for the genius here in bensdorf as Benjamin manak is holding on to that position and immense pressure from nikishov as well nikishov on the inside there’s the moment we had been expecting for the past few laps and the lead has Chang hands Nikita Nik Nikita nikishov sorry up in the lead with a CaRu machine from Drake Spain but now the question is can Benjamin manak still has a little something to this R to switch positions into turn number nine position switch and again the B of racing drivers in caring beautiful battle watch out from Zack green as well he wants a part of that race he wants a part in the battle as well he was very close on the getting ahead of nikan nikishov in turn number 10 he not happening quite yet and we could see as well spati closing in for a four driver battle into that last lap yes indeed right two different racing lines here Nikita nikov trying to go for the inside move watch Green on the outside here he’s going to get the long way round he gets squeezed out wide and he stays there Fidelity still in P4 now looks to the inside as all the Cs hug that inside line as they make their way out of turns four in through five and six through the chicane they will go now and there is no change it’s still manac from theit nikishov Green from sardel Quinton vanell closed in as well in the Falcon there’s a change or just a defensive line from sardel yes it was now green to the outside again he’s going to try and get the switch back here on Nikita nikishov he is going to try and try and try gets squeezed has he got the inside line yes he does now that released manac manac will take the win but it’s going to switch over on the exit it’s manc who wins Ahad of Nikita nikov then it’s feli then it is Zack green so it’s manac nikof sard delity green Gale then Quintin vanuel and melis from denona Helder from Owen the top 10 a dramatic and drastic first race of the day for qualifying seat C and D copy and no Advantage no Advantage 7 Z so no further action right confirmation there alilio burn well he can probably say pH that’s all right no Advantage there for cutting the track uh so I think he’s gotten away with that one but like to say skin of his tee there’s a look at the classifications at the end of that one provisional of course gone over the top 10 Constantine TI finishing in 11th place ahead of senier then it’s Amelia burn who’s just got away with the lucky one there ahead of Ben gots and rock petta rounding out the top 15 oh gaining some positions in that one yob bachela finishing ahead of Filipe rice rice not having the best result in that one finishing p7 XI xen finishing in 18th race ahead of Julian bub then it is peruo head of Max egar then kolina rondu finishing in 22nd Place a very dramatic end to that race there G yeah I like that I think we all did it was a beautiful battle I mean not just one but a plenty throughout the field of the Geno class here C versus D but in the end it can only be one winner and Benjamin manik did the job with the congratulations from his mechanic from B racing as this is win number one for Bingham and manak this weekend in varus dwarf 1.2 seconds from Nikita n nikishov as the rest of the field was busy battling for the left crops of the cake well M manik did the job starting from a good start and get away from po position on the inside of turn number one as it was a bit Scrappy just behind between some of the contenders into the field as Niki shovo had a good start as well up into P2 taking the inside line just behind the p cjam manak as we riding on board Toby Gil who was being stuck just behind the number 62 mikov trying to go around the inside of Zack green and that move would slightly work on the outside on an exter the left but he wasn’t in the easiest of position and lost a place to Kon V luin and further more as well but it’s always one of those hectic moments into the opening laps the 68 making his way through as well was Z green this time around confering his position but in the end toil will finish P5 of this race after this start we’re back here on board as Kinton once in front zag green as well it was the end of the opening lap as toil was trying to make his bit run inside of that very fast right hand and would he managed to do so not quite the momentum wasn’t on his side then back into the trail trying to have a bit of extra face we’re here with the number 25 I with making his way through John Helder from Fusion Motorsport being squeezed a little bit by the 114 of Archie Owen one of the early battles that the go according to plan from the vision of Toby Gil that’s an interesting point of view and you can see indeed Owen was taking their place on the left but squeezing a little bit his opponent and yes thank you indeed and have a good day on the inside taking two at the same time to the L A Beautiful move that would finish np5 yeah indeed there’s the outside view of that overtake and yeah I think very happy with that one on the second lap of the race this was green getting the move done onto ad delity this was nearing the end of the race it was all calm all the way up until that point then Nikita nikov going for that lead change down the inside got the move done we thought that was it then manac retaliated through turn number nine straight back down the inside and again side by side wheel to–he action between the two of them green had closed in and that’s I think where Nikita nikishov just had to say right okay I got close the door here I’ve got to close the door can’t allow him to get through this was Gale back on board right at the end of that race the on board view right to the end and you can see everyone tucked in green just having to settle there uh for fourth place cuz you can see manc ahead well was leading by 1.2 seconds at the end of that one despite the fact he was wheel tohe with Nikita nikov uh just a few Corners prior to that it just shows the speed difference when you’re defending versus when you can take the normal racing line out there well that brings us to the end of the first rotation of Junior x30 races The Minis are coming up next due to start in around five minutes time uh with their first race a versus B reminder of the intermediate classifications of course for all the Juniors Macky and manac leading that one at at the moment zero points to their name ahead of Buckley and Nick shof both of them second place for ID delity and Pinera Alex Pinera that is uh in fifth and sixth with Zach green and Angelina Simmons there’s a look at the rest of the day all the way throughout and again another reminder for anyone who is watching on YouTube only if you’re watching on Facebook or in motorsport.tv don’t you worry about this uh but for anyone watching on YouTube it is a double stream today so it will stop after the lunch break and then after the lunch break a brand new stream uh and then for the second half of the day today so do not forget uh about that uh G uh so far the uh the Juniors I think good controlled racing there exciting racing as well they’re giving us some really good battles there in the uh the latter stages of the races aren’t they yeah as usual in the jior category not too of course talking bad about the seniors as well but you could see you could feel through the first few races uh yesterday and today as well that there’s sometimes a bit more maturity in the way that some of those races is handled and the genius it was the first of the three for them for those two group that we had and a lot of excitement a lot of imprecision sometimes but that’s what we like to see as neutal viewers action on track overtaking at every lap every corner as many as possible so please some more uh towards the rest of the day and talking about action well stay with us because the mini are up next the X Mini category with the drivers between 8 and 12 years of age as the first confrontation will be coming soon between the group a and the group b as for the genius three races to go through for the competitors of the mini category in order for them to qualify as high as possible on the grids coming to the super Heats on Sunday morning and then the final where only 36 will get to compete and at the start of this weekend we have 46 drivers so keeping mind that pretty much 10 of them won’t get a chance to align themselves for the final race on Sunday afternoon but we still have a long way before that and this young man on your picture will be starting from po position for the upcoming race matis bro taking his fast overball position in the IM x30 Euro series and we caught up with him yesterday matis brao congratulations here in VOR your first ever p position in the IMA year series Bravo mat it’s GNA be a long weekend a lot of fights a couple of races for you to hopefully make it to the final so you’re confident with position that you can do good congratulations good to hear from matis Baro who is speaking to us in French as well one of the young drivers from France and aligning himself here this weekend with a spirit racing team very well known amongst the I am exper races from Switzerland as well as Ma was celebrating with his team yesterday about his performance let’s see if he will be able to manage the start first of all and manage the rest of his race it will be on the left side of your picture the right side of the track coming to turn number one he will have stronger position that’s for sure in the mini category as will green you can see him now will be starting alongside him from Jimmy Green racing the Green family and the Next Generation uh with have couple of them three of them actually competing in mini and jior category in this iami Euro series they give gave us some fantastic performance in last year’s iami Warriors final you might remember that from btim through the Delight of their father Jimmy Green ahead of the team obviously so that’s a beautiful history into the racing world and we cannot wait for the next chapters to be written by Will green and his brother and cousins indeed well will green who starts this one on the front row of the grid leader of the championship as well uh ahead of Austin newstead there is Oliver Warner who starts this on the second row of the grid Oliver currently sitting fifth in the championship standings was the winner of the final in zuera as well but didn’t take part in the final at francha corta that has been the biggest downside to his uh uh season so far this year but still there uh 5 with those 25 Championship points is yet to score points in the uh super heat phase and at the end of the qualifing heat phase of the weekend so is not able to take anything from that uh as well so uh we’ll keep a close eye on how all of these drivers progress over the course of this weekend there’s probably around 30 seconds before these drivers make their way out uh onto the circuit but right now definitely a 10th time uh for the field lights go green as the drivers start up those engines and head out onto the track let’s take through the starting lineup for this one Mattis Maro his best qualifying and his first pole position in time qualifying starts one on the front row with Will green alongside Oliver Warner and Nel Morales go from Road two ahead of zenic babek and Harry Williams on roow three George Clark and Bruno ging round out row four ahead of J and aelian L mer on row number five Alfie Davidson and antoan vet round out row number six on round number seven we’ll have n alga hoodi with Teddy J Porter Samuel and Tony cero R number eight R number nine Nick Reed and Alexandra p r number 10 Luca portaro and M Cornel followed by elas Sami a total of 21 drivers making their way to the track into the formation lap and for the mini it’s going to be even shorter distance seven laps to go through for first the a versus B then we’re going to have the race between C and the D groups three races to go through for each of those drivers to qualify as good as possible and as for the juniors and the the seniors that’s 10 point awarded to the winner of the provisional classification at the end of those qualifying Races by the end of today tomorrow we’ll be down to the super heat establishing the order for the final you know the drill if you’re familiar with the IAM x40 EUR series and if you’re curious about finding finding out any more about the one of the top cing Series in Europe and in the world well oh and as I said that the 872 running into some trouble by the look of it and this is Tedd J pter from Oliver Rolland Motorsport and uh he was we thought for a moment he was he was going to stop onto the track he was having a bit of a moment he seems to be back on a pace trying to join the rest of the field so just to finish off if you’re curious well you can go to I Euro series.com when you will be provided with all the documents results classification life timing all the information that you need to better understand immerse yourself into the joy of C racing at this level indeed well drivers field making their way into turn 11 nice and slow steady Pace all the way throughout great to see the drivers all adhering to that one one getting a jump in the early stages there’s some hands up waving in the mid pack there there is a gap that has formed in that mid pack as well but the lights go green nonetheless and it is a great start from the field as they make their way in towards turn one the first of the mini races this weekend and it’s the outside row that gets the jump will green Nel Morales with a brilliant start to that race break their way through Harry Williams uh through as well Williams looking very strong there in third place but then all the way behind that’s where it’s all kicking off fourth place downwards that’s where it becomes interesting you can see here the carts going three wide as they exit out of turns four and five they’ll go into the chicane now and where will they all line up remember they have to stay single far through here side by side and it becomes way too risky through that chicane and unfortunately I think the start didn’t go according to plan at all for matis bra flag and a yellow flag and one driver one Fusion driver out in 10 Number Nine by the look of it as the driver Davidson yes indeed as uh he just hit the wall you can see him now the 850 and is’s back on his feet trying to get his machine back on through the track but the engine seized and unfortunately for him that’s race done and dusted into that opening lap what a shame for the INF Fusion Motorsport driver well Al Davidson I can see out the commentary box window uh is is is in a bit of a protest with the Marshall uh now he was getting his cart out of the the barrier um and of course a driver is allowed to to get back in and get it restarted as long as he doesn’t get assistance from a marshall um now yeah he’s I think he’s arguing a little bit about that one but I think Marshall’s like no you Tak it too long I’ve got to clear the track so yeah safety is PRI Paramount in that one and uh yeah but clearly little bit of frustration there uh will green then leading the way he’s Leading The Way by quite some way as well Morales is still there from Williams so they’re all good Denny B’s up at P4 head of Oliver Warner s m bro ton CER Nill elah hoodi four places gained uh ahead of just behind ton CER is eight places gained and George Clark currently in P10 the race going on and look at this train here that we’ve got and this is carbon copy of what we see in mini x30 you see the train start to form but Harry Williams has said I would like second place please and Nal Morales tucks in behind into third and again as long as they can maintain that Gap maintain that pace and stick with Will green not allowing to break away they should be okay now Zen B sits there currently in P4 he’s just at the fastest lap of the race so despite the fact that he’s on his own he hasn’t got the toe or the bump draft from anyone in front or behind he’s managing just with outright Pace to close in on these top three that’s going to be an interesting one as well because because there’s three at in the lead but very soon maybe four T babek was one of the leaders in the Cal Heats back earlier at the winter cup the opening round of the IM x30 International calendar and is showing certainly some good skills and the results over the years in that category of the TS racing team can he join the leading Trio he still has half of a second to climb get close to NOA Morales down in third no one is daring to move move a musle at the moment will green still in front of how williams outside of Turner before with n Morales bab keeping a close watch from the distance trying to get close as well but uh still only lap number four time will soon be running out and Morales can already feel it yeah we thought we both thought that he was going to go at least try to go for the move in turn number nine it’s going to have to wait maybe the next lap because after that there won’t be that many opportunities left might be thinking the same as we just heard a ninja noise in the background I do Wonder it’s from here or from somewhere else from the road yeah cuz there is a public road literally right next to the track and I don’t know if that was a car it didn’t sound as uh like a 60cc two-stroke cut that an exhaust had come off it sounded quite something else uh morela Morales down the inside retakes second place out of Harry Williams and I think maral Morales just saying there right okay I’ll let you take second place I was going to see if you could try and close in on uh green you kind of did but you weren’t getting past so now it’s my turn to get back in second place and I’m going to try and go through and crucially as well it was probably a check over the shoulder from noal Morales and seeing Zen bab had closed in and thought I don’t want anything to do with that battle so I I’m going to get past you and and put you in between me and that imminent threat that’s heading towards us yeah any opportunity you might take you just have to go for it and uh with indeed Harry Williams in between he might have got himself a little bit of a cushion of safety but we’re getting close to the conclusion of that race already as lap number six this is Will green watching over his shoulder Morales William bab four drivers in the picture will someone try to go around the inside yes the door was open and then Morales takes William with him will green very smartly suddenly he felt that the door was set in too much open he’s going to have to try to protect this position on the outside clipping the curb taking a position from Williams back into P2 what a move move from will green that’s what we like to see he’s going to try again is very much on the tail of n Morales into the that could come from anywhere from those four into that haen the inside is blocked by Morales will green is still trying very much taken in Sandwich squeeze a little bit by Williams and zenic Bobby S on the way next they touch slightly was there maybe a slide from the leader but mores is losing the win and the lead potentially to Har Williamson by be second as well well will Willams runs wide at turn 11 babach now takes the lead of this Race Across the St Finish Line it is D bab leading from Harry Williams will Green from Nel Morales now they are still 1 2 3 4 green and Morales go to the outside Williams and bab to the inside Green’s got the outside again here but keep an eye because jales say Tony casero Mattis bro they’re all closing in noal morales down the inside there’s contact Spin and brown a spin for the fusion the 809 of JAL s out of this race as the rest of the field amazingly a managed to void contact but he just rejoins the track right in front of the George gimons driver of Luca pataro uh right there at the back of the field but that was a very dramatic one there bab now clear a little bit by 3/10 of a second ahead of Nal Morales he can really now to get this cut to the end of this race Williams still there ahead of Oliver Warner where did the rest of the field go uh Williams is still there it all updates now Warner from casero V it’s all drives have tumbled down the order here right Zen B takes the win on that one in the first opening race of the mini x30 brilliant brilliant drive there for Zen bab no drama of him whatsoever really the outright Pace there was able to close in the TS racing team providing a superb package at this point of the weekend so it was nval Morales he finishes in second place against Harry Williams and that that was Will green at the side of the track so will Green retired from that one I I was wondering where did Green go and well I can tell you right now he’s right there and that’s at the exit of turn number four in towards turn five that’s the outside of turn five there so clearly that damage just too much and the C came to a stop a very dramatic final race there yeah it was dramatic indeed we might need to see that again to uh let I understand what happened really concretely to will green over there because it was so messy into the later stages into that last lap M see in a positive way as in the mini category those drivers Never Never back down not until a jaer flag is waving race is never finished before that point and T babich just proved it once again climbing four places from P5 to P1 from n Nores William AR Williams taking P3 from Oliver War Tony caero Bruno gring n alp7 from Alton V Matti bra Geor Clark running up the top 10 11 place for Tedd J Porto from Sam alexand Nick Reed 15 followed by cor Luka portaro IIA Sami and Jala at the back end of the classification after that incident the congratulations I in order for Chic babich who did a brilliant job in that race where we lost Alfie Davidson and will green towards the end of the distance will green had a perfect start from the outside of the front row not so much unfortunately for matis the young Pitter the first time in this position and it wasn’t able to manage the procedure he would finish P9 in the end of this race but it was down to the battle between those three with Williams and nanes would get themselves into that leading mix away from the rest of the field as we thought for a moment so our driv is matis bra was squeezed a little bit on the inside it was unfortunately down and dusted very very early on on for Alie Davidson was protesting against the Marshall we didn’t get to see from our distance if the engine was still running seeing the protestation and the anger from The Young driver is certainly was the case he thought that maybe he could get back on his own but the uh due to safety the Marshall for otherwise and we can hardly blame him on the uh turn number two back in the lead the battle was still raging will green was still having the hand at this point before n Morales and H Williams will go to battle still was trying to go run the out and unfortunately will go very very squeezed out there taking back F2 with Chik babit on the right side thinking as well to go trying to go for his chances just before the last turn will green would go from first to third once again CH bab in the middle as well and we would head towards the last lap of the race where even more drama would happen yeah this moment here through the turn number three now you can see was contact there SE and uh that’s what cause will green to have issues and then C the outside there I think that was Harry Williams that amazingly just managed to hold on but a really scary moment there uh for jalis seya right to the middle of the track right here’s another view of it yeah seya down the inside goes over the front of green it was Williams who got pinged into the air there landed on all four but uh you can see a couple more Cuts going wide but why did Green stop I think his just his engine just said No at that point or something’s locked up or something happened to his C but yeah it just gave up and amazing reactions there for the rest of the field to all avoid contact there with with Jala seya uh this was uh more action that happened further down the field there that was a big send down the inside for Oliver Warner battling away with the likes of Tony casair and all of that but zanic bab well superb drive there uh quite literally just able to close up on the leading Trio with his own pace uh in that race and uh was able to get past cleanly and uh then yeah really push forward and manag to just avoid all of that coming together at number three speaking of those public roads earlier on there is one of them that is right there right down the the kind of main straight of B there brilliant brilliant view that is uh on the main straight that you can see all the way down there the track in the foreground there getting ready for this one uh but that’s the end of the first mini x30 race there is more to come uh one more in fact in in total coming up next and well Bruno Priam starting that one on the front of the grid uh but uh he’s had a really good qualifying session it is Group C and D that is coming up next for mini x30 and uh like I say time qualifying was super super close there was nothing really separating uh the two drivers right at the front of the the field on this one uh very very close all the way throughout but uh all these drivers really just trying to get these cards I think through the first qualifying heat phase it’s the most important race of the the weekend because it’s the first one it’s the first one and that’s certainly how you want to get your weekend starting on a good manner and the pressure is certainly on those young shoulders as Pino you can see on screen we’ll be starting from the PO position from Belgium he is driving a power Lane for the spirit racing team from Switzerland and he will try of course he was suddenly watching from the sideline the performance of his teammate starting from po position in the previous race matis Raj would hand up in P9 after a difficult start and difficult race certainly there’s progress to be made from matis brao you can easily understand how difficult that can be for your first time in such a position ahead of the field let’s see what P Bruno will be able to do he’s going to have Ian Gonzalez by his side the young driver from Belgium as well as lud and Ain newad just further back driers waiting on the demig grid before start of the race taking place in just under 5 minutes local time here in vak do still under beautiful weather conditions the Sun is up temperatures as well up to 27 degrees which just gained two degrees for the past hour it might actually rise to about 32 43 degrees here in the beautiful region of bav area but fortunately we have a bit of air conditioning from our position for both myself and Anthony Jordan so this little machine Will Keep Us Alive until the the end of the day and uh couple of people surrounding the track a lot of the mechanics families and friends gathering this weekend at the poat Rand of vakas dorf if you happen to find yourself in the area for holiday or spending the weekend please pay us a visit there’s uh plenty of attractions on track and off as well you won’t regret it starting with one of the best calling series there is to be and starting with the mini category the first step here where those young drivers learned a craft about becoming racing drivers for the years to come bro and edu Gonzalez will lead the field for the upcoming race when looking at the current Championship Standings well green that we just had at the first race not certainly the result he had been expecting having to retire from his first qualifying race wilen is still of course at this point our current leader of the championship he amassed 52 points in in two rounds with one win FR Shak corta 47 points for Austin newad second five points down with his best result in the Z for the opening round the second place prian Bruno is third in the championship as we speak second in Fran Shak corta 12 points down from will green so you can easily understand how important this weekend can be and this first race can be for pran bro if he can manage to win this one well he will take a good option uh when it comes to CL timing on top of the classification certainly will do and that race coming up in around 2 minutes time do stay with us for that one there on your screen is Evan Gonzalez the driver from Spain getting himself ready for this one uh final bit of prep talk happening uh you can see just behind Evan Gonzalez is second in the championship standings Austin newstead for the BMR restart team as well uh just in that background getting himself ready not currently seated in the cart to now he’s just just seen will green retire from that race uh that will obviously put him I suspect in a better state of mind not not you know thinking hahaa that’s you know that happened to him but thinking right okay he’s had drama that’s going to put him back a little bit I can I can push forward now I can really uh try and break away and and think you know I can lead that intermediate classification if I can get a good start and we have seen here a couple of times that the outside for technically turn one the first right-hander um is uh getting the better jumps here and that’s initially because at the start of the race there’s an initial left hand Kink first which is kind of feeling like the outside line I’ve got the inside line going into the first Corner which isn’t a corner it’s just a Flatout chican so there is that little bit of element which is keeping the starts actually really really competitive isn’t it yeah that’s what we love about the vus draw for layout one of the best facilities in layouts that we have in Europe that’s for sure for the practice of car racing especially true when uh we get to come here with a gearbox categories for instance you find yourself with the outside line indeed being very efficient on the way to that left and right kick before turn number one we’ve seen a couple of drivers this weekend going for the move into turn number one when uh the top speeds for the seniors you know about 115 120 kilm an hour with the toe a very impressive performance there so it’s not that easy uh also for the juniors and the Min obviously to try to find a bit of space and uh knowing of course that you can find yourself under attack from your opponent coming to the breaking point of turn number two so it’s a bit on and off in terms it’s a bit of a dilemma shall I go for the move knowing that I can be the one under a difficult situation coming to the next corner should I wait should I go for the breaking point there suddenly a couple of very interesting overtaking spots here on this layout of the poal Raceland and the mini cut in the mini categories the Mini Drivers coming to the track right now will be eager to take advantage of those spots here’s the grid well it is pram bro starting this one on the front row of the grid Ian Gonzalez starting alongside L gr Chris and Austin newstead second of the championship starts this one on the second row of the grid Maxim bov and N round out row number three ahead of sumani Kira and Freddy wood on row four Daniel Ferguson and Eden valo go from row five with kobby Patterson and Christian Kobe running out row number six row number seven we’ll see AR musk as well well as P Medina followed by Julia as well as batist AUST then we have ATA Luka pav m Kim and G in total 20 drivers making their way onto the track as we said in total in this mini category this weekend we have 46 competitors only 36 10us 10 will make it to the final on Sunday afternoon and for that they need good results they need to find themselves where in the upper part of that classification coming to tomorrow morning as well and it starts with the best result you can find in this qualifying race Peno and even Gonzalez on the front row of the grid seven laps to go through once again for the mini class and as for now your current leader with One race down easy to remember T babich from Taps racing taking a very impressive win as uh there’s certainly more than one contender who can play at the front we’ve seen with Morales we’ve seen I Williams will green certainly will have that foration that hopefully can turn into determination for the next races with a dnf at this stage considering that they only have three races before the end of the day before the super heat that’s not a lot there’s not a lot of room for mistake and a dnf at this level is certainly no good news at all no it certainly isn’t drivers getting themselves formed up again here and so far it’s been a a series of perfect starts for our grid as they make their way into that final Corner again tension starts to rise we have just seen a very dramatic first Min x30 are we going to see a dramatic second mini x30 as the lights go green and the field heads in towards turn number one great start for PRI and brunau holds on to the race lead as they dive down in towards turn number two the breaking Zone the constantiner effect kicks in drivers try to find their way through it’s not been a great start for the outside row this time around as everyone close through look at Gran Chris just losing out there or currently still in second place I should say so he’s at a relatively good start as well the outside row Ivan Gonzalez not getting away too well you can see the two Fusion carts have come through Maxim bobov and sukman Kira having a very good start there but for ELO gonzale Ian Gonzalez sorry Austin Gail as there’s a chain throw the lead Gran Chris now leading the way and it’s all kicking off the background here bov’s going to send it down the inside he’s going to take the lead of this race now and we are live on board with him now what’s going on behind them because uh well that’s where it’s got a bit interesting here so bop’s going to cross the line first uh pamber know’s there in second place gr Chris still there in third it’s Ferguson who’s in fourth place with sumani Kira patteron sixth newstead is down to seventh after starting this one P4 yeah very strong strong start to the race for maxim bov as we’re about to jump on on board as he was making his move and as for the first race we can see a tho of drivers getting ahe of the field and building themselves a bit of a gap 1.1 seconds between the max Maxim bash of your leader and pson kby pson done in P4 good start as well for him at the wheel of his machine prepared by Oliver Roland mport he climbs seven places up to P4 as for now bof under the pressure of Priam Bruno gr vix the only driver from the outside of the front row coming having a good start sorry he was on the inside my apologies as he was able to get himself into P2 no down to P3 and he’s going to try on pamino watch out for the the young Belgian driver he lost a bit of momentum on the outside of the last quarter giving a slight gever oh here we go here he comes the Falcon driver on the inside and Cambo is not resisting at all it’s still quite early entering lap number three out of seven bashov is having n ofate not even watching over his shoulder he knows that the job is is to do gr wi up into P2 BR Bruno P3 then4 newad follows in fifth place from K Fus Corby mus and no unfortunately for him dropping four places down to P1 drop of positions as well for the 840 just behind this is wood down in a P1 as Jan V for fortunately the young Dutch drivers seem to have run into a bit of a trouble dropping five places all the way down the classification here they come across here we go into a lap number four out of seven and uh as we said as we had for the first race of the mini class two wagons pretty much the battle for the win the battle for P4 what’s left of strong results to be taken in this race well here we go then the grid still Clos cling in at this point of the race bov still controlling onto the front of this gr Christ has closed in and well could put on an attack here now is gr Chris going to go for it straightway or is he going to stay behind thinking you know maybe we could push each other along break away from the likes of PRI brunau still sits there in third place and was that a small mistake there from Brian brunau I’m not too sure because he has dropped back a little bit here we’re back on board with Maxim bobov but I just caught a glimpse there out the corner of my eye that maybe uh the back ofac C stepped down a little bit here through the first chicane in towards turn one absolutely flat out through here into the breaking zone of turn number two again keeping it calm and you can see how little steering input that uh Boba job’s putting in there absolutely superb uh motion there uh Gran Chris holding on still to second place still doing a good job not able to attack just yet but again is staying behind is it a matter of uh when or where for Gran Christ or if it’s going to happen here yeah certainly a lot of uncertainty at this point is that he has a couple of spots to try to go for the move the turn number 10 right here is one of them that he stays behind just uh kindly waiting for the right moment to go for an attack but the longer he waits and the longer he won’t have any opportunity and he might find himself under the pressure of P Bruno who lost indeed a bit of momentum from the last lap I do wonder what happen we might need to see that again in replays ASO only lost momentum and contact with the leading duet but he sees as well HBY pson put driver getting close so we might have two battles on our hands with newad and K five and six uh is what happen on the inside as goes bof with l v just in front getting ahead both of them of pram Bruno in turn number n then the next one next shin and a beautiful move on the inside ASO just behind and you can see Ah that’s an interesting Gest from the leader Maxim bov saying to Grand V you know let’s keep it real let’s see a check flag together let’s not do anything unwise we still have two races to go after that so we need the result we need the points so let’s try not to throw each other out and uh Grand V is responding actually the final lap that might be a little bit of a play as well you know mind games from the grand Vin saying to bof let’s keep going I want attack you but then in the end maybe go for a very quick move into the last l oh yeah we’ve seen that a million and one times in the mini x30 category say no no no you keep going and then boom send it down the inside car we’ve seen it so many times out so all these drivers are aware that it’s a sort of tactic that drivers can deploy so you it’s a bit of a double-edged sword little bit with it you know do you go for it oh drama here that’s not gone well at all for MJ Kim unfortunately for the vdk racing team out of this race on the final lap uh and that is well yeah not what you want to see at all now with one corner left to go I think bobov has uh and gr Chris had actually stuck to their agreement on that one which is good to see bobov will take the win then across the St Finish Line ahead of l Grant Chris both giving each other a thumbs up Bri Bruno finishes in third place ahead of kobby panis and newstead finishes in P5 ahead of sukman Kira musk finishing in seventh place ahead of no grer Wood Finishing in ninth ahead of Ivan Gonzalez will not be fully happy with that result after starting on the front row of the grid that is the top 10 but for maxim bobov on that one uh I’m sure will be absolutely delighted with that result yeah it must be delighted because it was very much in control and uh spider pressure of convinced in the end 71,000 of a second in the end but as you said they stuck to the agreement initially of not attacking each other towards the later stages of this race and for for Maxis Maxim bov that’s a win number one obviously for his first race of the weekend Maxim bashov has been in very uh interesting positions earlier this season leading the Heats notably in the round number two f corta actually was ahead of the pack at the end of the qualifying hits Maxim brov leading here as well once again on track having to make do second place tactics at playo your P having to make do but certainly not one in one itly to start with with third place then we have kby pson Austin newad Su K Al mus wood and Ian Gonzalez running up the top 10 11 play for Christian kobby B is Augustine Aiden Val Daniel Ferguson Andrea LCA pav jul down in P finally from Medina Ki Anda One driver that we lost MIM you’ve seen fortunately not quite able to see the check flag and uh that’s what we love to see between drivers you know there might there might be Rivals and sometimes Fierce rivals on track but outside of it they remain friends and uh that’s the sort of fair play that we love to see between them indeed let’s have a look at the highlights from that race and Well on board with Maxim bov at the start of this one you can see that the inside row gets the jump on the outside row this time around you can see there’s no competition from the outside row at all and these three just break away from the rest of the field in that opening stage you can already see that gr Cris was looking for the move there uh down the inside not able to get it done in that early stages though they all stay ly of Step all coner up in the background a little bit though as the wrestling field was slot way through this is the outside view of the start of the race and you can see yeah about 3 four five wide in the background there all battling from uh P six downwards that was a very interesting moment uh obviously the two fusions of bobov and Suk Malik Kira Daniel Ferguson all getting a good start to their race as well uh starting to close up you can see that moment just behind them there this was gr Chris going for the lead of the race bobov following as well and then you can see gr Chris checks over the shoulder can see there’s no one there then goes to the outside but then it was a sneaky little hello down the inside says Maxim bobov and takes the lead of the race and holds on to it for a good portion of that race there was the outside view of that attack as well but uh brilliant stuff uh for maxim there is the uh the confirmation of the working together and there’d be no change between those two they would stick to their word and they would finish one two on track exactly what you want to see from a first race and maybe a sign of an alliance between the two drivers going into this weekend if we see more of them racing together later on which we will uh you know we could see some more Dramatics from them we just don’t know gam seniors they’re coming up next yes indeed the last rotation of the morning stay with us we have three more races to go before the lunch break and the next race coming up we’ll see the groups B versus G at this point in the senior class the top enchong of the IMA Euro series well a couple of different winners at this point Alo Gonzalez spinard is leading the board in terms of number of wins with three wins out of four attempts a p19 unfortunately dropped in a little bit further back into the classification but he still has something to say into this run of qualifying Heats two wins for David dragon from Zaki Motorsport and victories as well for Marcus luio and the likes of Danny karini QA Kevin lantinga V van huya and fakin it was for yesterday before we get back into the racing let’s hear from one of the contenders of this category who had his first race earlier this morning Jason Smith from Victory Lane and we caught up with him yesterday Joseph Smith well done to you it was a very decent lap putting you ahead of your group can you talk us through that performance in qualifying how did you feel on track I mean I felt amazing the C felt really really really good and I just so such a good feeling and the team have done everything they can to per someo and have done it competition will be tight there’s a lot of you we can find at the front how do you feel ahead of the rest of the weekend with that good performance in the bag already um I’m feeling really confident that we can get an nice quite high and also just keep gaining positions and hopefully a overall poll well done to you thank you very much well great there to chat to Joseph Smith there seemingly calm and collected head of this weekend uh we did hear from sah heyen earlier on when we saw his video he starts this one on pole position as well P4 in his race he had earlier on uh today so another good result for him there within that top five that’s his second P4 that he’s had there he is on your screen uh but he had the the drama a little bit at the start with that engine just didn’t fire up and we thought oh goodness is the out of the race before it was even started and luckily for him he was able to get that one going uh Paul CH will start this one along sides this is Group B and G now Group G did have their F uh three races yesterday they’ve not had a race so far at today cuz there’s four groups in total in the senior C category so one group didn’t race earlier this morning uh and that is Group G Paul Chow leading that train uh sixth seventh and a fourth for uh Paul chel yesterday I think that’s a solid first day Racing for him it was indeed at the wheel of his Gillard machine you can see him pess with a second position on the starting grid coming to this race alongside s v and all the drivers on the demig grd by the side of the track and on the left you have the entry of the pit Lane you have all the scrutineering area and the rest of the facilities of the P Rand at the back of your picture currently you have all the pallock and the camping Zone and everything that’s this is pretty much the bombing hard they can they can see the P of the entry to that mini City that takes place at every race of the imix for the EUR series as well as well as for everything carding in Europe and in the world the panck that’s really the brething space the beating heart of any event of that scale as Kevin lantinga will be alongside Elia way on the second row on of the grid Kevin lantinga who had a win yesterday alongside other strong results for the D from kcr Kevin Dana who will hand up winning just after the rain vilmer van was the winner of that qualifying race yesterday that was put under the red flag uh after some pouring rain for just a few minutes three minutes to wait before the start of that next qualifying heat B versus G and a couple of interesting names into that field we’ve seen Andy rattel putting his helmet on the left side to 42 driving for the Pono racing team Frenchman will be alongside Christian bazati 255 this is Elia way from Germany one of the many local drivers competing here this weekend really really strong performance from Ellie of ice over the course of yesterday is a fan of third place uh three third place finishes yesterday starting P4 so all gains in the race but uh yet to finish ahead of that one to top two finish first or a win or a second so uh at the moment but still really really strong results there there andy Rell finished third in his first qualifying heat earlier this morning and was looking well I I suspect to repeat that from P5 maybe even better it yesterday tough day at the end of the day for Anna Rell 31st and that retirement so again needing uh that strong results again like he had in his first qualifying heat where he finished second then his first qualifying heat he had this morning finishing P3 we’ll have Christian basati starting alongside batti also good results for the driver of the TB cut team fifth fourth and a ninth uh all with inside the top 10 and uh yeah again some just strong results there it did drop down a little bit at some points in some of the races but he certainly fought back and you know he’s kept his elbow out he’s not been too dramatic about anything like that and he’s just getting through this weekend and that’s always good to see it’s always nice when you get a driver who’s just fully focused on seeing what they do uh there as well standing alongside mat V kirov now mat V kirov has had a very very tough weekend so far uh P6 in his first qualifying heat that was perfect and he thought and we all thought that that’s going to it’s going to be a good weekend for vaner kirkov but then his last three races he’s had have all been retirements and they’ve been 30th or lower and that is not what you want yeah that’s really it’s been a difficult weekend for myov managed to grab his first points last time around in Fran corta for round two and as you can see with some little drivers waiting on the S line it is hot with a lot of humidity here in vakas DF and uh all the way is practical to try to get yourself cooled down a little bit trying to find some shade don’t forget the sun cream but wet towel as well could be a some use for some drivers to try to keep the head cool waiting for the next races but at this point temperature still 27° Celsius in the air could be rising above 30 throughout the afternoon really tropical conditions here in vakis DF and it should stay the same until the end of the day green flag as the light is out this is the signal for the drivers to make their way onto the track from the Dem GD here’s the gri info well it is Sam vanida starting on a poll position on this one with a brand new set of tires on his cart uh Paul CH goes from the second row or from the front row of the grid as well in P2 also fresh out of tires and I’ll stress nearly the entire grid has gone for brand new tires for this race Kevin aninga and ell of ice go from roow two an Rell and Christian batti on roow three mat van kirov who needs that good result in this race starts on P the fourth row of the grid with hug haran alongside Dan ginard and Milan MAAC rounds out row number five and the top 10 ahead of Luna C and Luca Horton on row six Hamer alz will be on his own on the seventh row as Patrick ovic is no longer participating in this weekend he’ll have S senson and Lou shutz alongside on row number eight Max uh Asen bre will go from row N all by himself as well as Lewis bird missing from the grid T of the grid will be complete though with Lou Johnson SCH and d w Follow by Lou kin and LCA Taylor at this masc and RO number 12 we have Marcel matovich and Andre pan number 13 r 14 niola simik and andon span followed by Luke neor K and Ken a total of 31 drivers down to 29 as we are indeed missing Patrick ovic and leis bird we didn’t get to see uh we get to know yet the uh exact reason the mechanical Drive uh you pick and we’ll keep you up to date if uh hopefully they will be back for some more racing this weekend saren and Pa chos on the front row of the grid as we just had oh and a couple of drivers as while they putting the tires up to temperature try not to wave too much otherwise you can find yourself into trouble after the seven and eight laps of this back to 11 for the senior category and as you can see now V van is your current leader of the qualifying Heats from fil mland danini Anda way down to P4 and this is way he will be starting on the outside of the second row indeed drivers enter into the tram lines lights go green we are racing down towards turn number one great start for Vander heyen who holds on to the lead of this one as they go through keep an eye on Lena who looks to the inside the outside it’s Paul Chow who tries his luck and runs out of racing room and slides down in towards P4 ellia Vice back up into third place the TB cart pushing through of Christian batti trying to get involved in this fight stays there in P4 as the field goes through but look at the start here for sander heyen breaking away at the start of this race and he’s having K lantinga his teammate from kcr just behind as in the meantime foros trying to resist from one of the pantanos and the ratel trying to give him a hard time at the end of this opening lap the two teammates lenting protecting each other so to speak once they up there they got do they try to do everything that they can to really stay where they are so drivers forther back trying to find some positions into the last sector one lap downa and lantinga is around oh dear drama it’s Dan ginard sorry there G it’s Dan ginard off the track the svr Motorsport driver is out as down the inside Elli of Vice challenges for second place on Kevin lantinga and S Vander heyen kin lantinga there’s another cut stop there that’s another one falling down the order now that is vand well okay let’s let’s find out who exactly that is that’s Max ocean break unfortunately it is and who else mat Vander kirkov has tumbled down the order again and he is 27th I don’t know if he’s out of the race I’ve not seen him on track yeah has a technical flag actually oh well there we go and that well that’s a weekend over I think at that point my God yeah such a disaster for him once again that’s another race in the bin for the the poor Belgian driver unfortunately Matas vov who is still with us but he’s going to need to get back into the pits in no time that is heartbreaking for vaner kirov going in and have suching a strong start of the weekend with a P6 you know he was looking like this is going to be a great weekend for him and from that point onward it’s just just Fallen apart for him and you got to feel for the young driver well lantinga leads the way ahead of ell ofce and this battle here Christian batti and uh V heyen and Vander heyen back down the inside will say thank you very much and moves back passed in towards P3 Paul CH returning back to the front rattel Heron mazac all behind we had a bit of a moment for Milan maak actually went wide outside of turn number 10 wasn’t able to he was able to continue opportunely for him it’s indeed well race going on and all the drivers here on the fourth lap of the race is down the inside Al rattel goes through says thank you very much on Hugo Heron and uh moves up another position gets past Paul Chow as well King gar with the fastest lap of the race is pushing himself up through the field this was how the lead change happened down the inside of turn number two it’s been a fan favorite for many of the drivers uh with the Positive cber there also helping out then there was Ellie of ice getting the move done for second place sanah heyen really on the back foot at this stage now uh still there in P3 has recovered back to P3 as these two here have broken away so clearly ell of ice is getting fed up with finishing in third because down the inside goes for the race lead brilliant move there for El of Vice holding on to that one now as they go through it’s still kicking off in the background there sen van heiden’s getting in a bit of a tangle here with the others rattel Paul Chow has got through sanah heyen down to P six now El still leading the way from Kevin lantinga batti Hugon now fastest driver on circuit as well is starting to close in on this battle up ahead Lou Johnson Co is there in p8 this is good for Johnson Cole he’s not had the best of results so far this weekend uh but he’s certainly going to be fighting back there he is you can see him in the premium carton suits in the two 40 Luke Horton in toe interesting enough we thought for a moment that Kevin lantinga and his teammate s we going to be able to stay together and try to build themselves a bit of a gap but maybe K thought that was certainly he wasn’t cly the easiest of plan and not the one with the most safety that’s for sure he went for the move very early and look at what’s happened s and P6 lantinga still battling for the win but he has a strong area was in front of him indeed the cosmic chassis up in front and almost a second down bazati ratel a second wagon and it’s not over yet as you can see now with a full FR fresh set of tires for K lantinga half of a new set for chrisan daati down in P3 he chose the left side there’s indeed more left Corners here on this track of vas do this no sorry my this seven right and four left through the 11 turns that we have here and K lantinga fresh set of boots all four wheels changed for this race as you said pretty much the entire grd I decided to go for fresher rber this time around and we could only pick just a couple of those drivers who decided to stay on the same tires that they had before so different pace BOS fastest lap 50.1 has a 11 places gain for l Johnson cool from 19 up to 8 and is closing in still missing one second on Ugo a rning p s and at the moment still this is part of uh that phase in the middle of the race isn’t it where the drivers kind of go stable with the gaps they observe each other they try to wait for the best opport opportunity of course they need to keep on going with the pace and as you can see Kevin lantinga is dropping slightly a little bit of momentum on the a w but still the end of the world has a bit of time into that lap number eight to try to Counterattack but that means that both jaati and rattel PA CH with then could maybe close in on the driving s place maybe so ell ofce fastest up of the race now with that clean air in front starting to break away L is still there same as ban rattel Chow looking further down in the order as well who are some of our biggest movers as we’ll cut back to that a little bit later as rattel on the attack here gets past B Sati now Paul Chow gets down the inside bassi not losing one but two places in that one ch trying to go for the move as well and he moves up past rattel so Paul Chow now into third place in this race rell’s dropped back down as well so as soon as he gained uh two he’s just lost two again now s van heyen Clos back in hugar RS right there as well we got five cars battling and it’s not even for second place or the race lead it’s for third place porow still leading this train as they exit out of turn number four in through five and six you can see the rubber that has been planted down on the circuit provided by the mg tires this weekend but again all these drivers here really piling on the pressure as they head through again different racing lines I thought rattel was going for the move again there but no batti holds on to it sanah hey and there’s rattel going for the move down the inside through turn 10 says thank you very much and that’s now released Paul CH who’s able to Now work on his cut to try and close up to lantinga it was about time for rattel to make his move because as you said poos has built himself a bit of a gap he was able to pull away just a bit as Gatti wants to return the favor that’s for sure but this is further back go R the inside ofen side by side pretty much but has to admit defeat just for nowen who was the p c of this race don’t forget still struggling to keep that six positions alive so is Andel struggling to the chane under the pressure of jaati his last contact to PA chos looking over his shoulder the Frenchman is going to have to be protected oh two drivers coming together the 250 and the uh 414 is it possible I think so and they are telling it’s Mattis Mout and Ham around for here no it’s not them but no I think it is yeah themed 378 yeah 378 that’s going down Mattis michelon Hamer alz involved in that incident well that’s not going to go well for them they’re going to retire to 25th and 26th in this race uh race has gone on to the final lap of it and rattel is is defending like crazy here from Christian batti who’s trying to get P down it towards turn three keep an eye though s Vander hien closing in so it’s hug goad on they’re all right there now what happened here now this is Rell and uh and batti going through clipping a lot of the curb well they can see drivers not very happy with each other sarcastic moments saying well yeah well done for that one what are you talking about that was you uh but I’m sure they will sort that one out afterwards Ellie of ice out of the final corner has had three third places now can take a qualifying Heat win and take zero points to the name zero points is exactly what you want you do not want any more than that but Elli of ice finishing in P1 at the end of qualifying heat B versus G lantinga finishes in second place ahead of Paul Chow then it is Annie retel ahead of Christian bassti s vaner heyen finishing in P6 ah of youa heron Luka hon senson and marak the top 10 on circuit but for ellot vice exactly exactly what they needed yeah absolutely in beautiful fashion from Al w three places gain up to P one and we do have a new winner in the circle of the senior category and ways putting the cosmic Chassy in Victory mode with the rest of the classification the top 10 just outside karti and talking about performance karti 20 places gained from 31 on the grid up to 11 close to the top 10 but what a performance for the British driver in front of Lou Johnson Cole who still had a good performance seven places gain up to p12 from Ugo Bess 11 places gain Luke Taylor eight places collected up to p14 from Nikolas simic a good recover as well p15 in the end 12 places better in front of Li andreano Lun we have as well Marcel maich down in p19 followed by and then spin L shz and L no a couple of drivers and uh this might be the biggest list of retired drivers that we had so far we didn’t get to see the checkout flag as we lost Mattis MC as well as am alz Matas vov forunate B driver another disappointing result another retirement for him no and sorry and Al coming together into the later stages of that race and we last as well Max a Brink then Gish and two drivers missing out onto that race as we get to see the replays of that qualifying heat the start with two drivers missing there was B and Patrick ovic as down the inside it was a cracking start for the Kevin linga and S the two drivers from ball position s lantinga just behind holding on to that second place and pulling a bit of a gap from Al W and the rest of the field some drivers going cross country just a tiny bit as we lost early on Gish indeed the British driver that we’ve seen for the past few years competing in single City in British and Spanish F4 and back into the world of carting there was the switch the first one of many with Kevin lantinga taking command of that qualifing race and that would be the start of the end unfortunately for his teammates and Ven and ways making his way through uh for second place and then it was the start of a lot of different battles for that second position away from lantinga with bazati and the 254 s ven getting involved as well ven was trying to keep his race alive in front of the TB cart driver Gaza telling him to stick to those position try to climb and get close to lantinga and then the charge and the attack from Ela way on lantinga in turn number two for the back as well Andel making his way past bazati with the return trying to at least from further back from Roos who would finish in B3 in the end starting with that beautiful overtaking on the inside of under yeah indeed that was the moment there gaining the two positions in one while they carried on battling Away Paul CH going defensive in towards turn two uh with only a couple of laps left to go of the race that brought the likes of sahen back into play Hugon back into play as well and that’s what really kicked it off between those four which allow PCH to just get away at that stage of the race they can see Rell and just going wheel tohe there Mattis M and ham alz unfortunately at the end of that race clearly not happy with each other um but understandable in a retirement of a qualifying heat Elli of ice though will be delighted after three third places today’s first race sees a race win exactly what they would have wanted qualifying heat a versus f for senior x30 is coming up next and well it’s been an absolutely brilliant day for the drivers right at the front of that one because it’s Danny karini starting on that front row again for uh for karini he’s been uh well he’s been one to watch over the course of this weekend because well everything’s just gone kind of well for him he’s not had the he’s not had wins wins wins in his qualifying Heats he still had to work relatively uh relatively hard in all of that you know he had he had Fifth and a a win previously uh he had a decent result earlier on as well wasn’t a win but he still had a decent result of what he wanted to uh to get from the rest of the field that race a versus f is coming up next it was group a versus C that was out in that one finished P3 in that race so he’s sitting eight points to his name in the intermediate classification but outright pole positioning time qualifying meant that the zanki Motorsport driver had immense Pace over the course coming into this weekend and he has still delivered that one the racecraft is bang on there is a very experienced pilot he knows what he needs to do in all of this uh we did catch up with him after time qualifying after he did put it outright Paul uh here’s what he had to say danini Well done to you very strong job almost a full 10 of a second faster than the previous po SE that put you ahead of the pack and in full confidence in vas yeah I make a really good L only a little bit small mistake on the second sector but really good La I start in the first leading the group and is so good the pace is okay we we see we will see indeed on a tight and Technical track here in vakas dorf with the competition as high as it is in the II year series you expect strong battles coming to the Heats yeah sure this track is not easy I think here the driver make a lot the difference it’s not lot it’s not so so big the track I think everyone will close for all the race and we will see how is you are one of the contenders in the battle for the title this year with that in mind does it put you in a position of strength or you try not to think about it no I think uh I can fight for the championship and I’m here for that fantastic well done to you thank you so much well great to chat to Danny karini there after time qualify definitely the results he would have wanted in that one and what cool collected as well is not an excitable driver always has a very valid opinion when he comes out with something and uh again just a very well experienced driver in the class uh last year Champion KY Atkins you’re looking at that on your screen there and uh you know that was a close little Championship that they had between that one as well Danny karini last year finished 11th in the championship standing he right now is battling right the sharp end of it yeah he’s always been one of those names to keep an eye on you know definitely so then narini with the experience that he has been bring bringing to the I Euro series but this time around he found himself in certainly the best positions we been in for the past few seasons we have a second place as best finish in francha corta on home soil in Italy a race won by his teammate Ricardo Ferrari so it was a onew from zanki Motorsport F mlin you saw him briefly on screen as well the young standard beer from vdk racing from Ireland starting on the uh front row on the left on the front row as the wind has been picking up slightly here in varas DWF still very hot in temperature 37° as the people are gathering mechanics families and friends on the tower the main tower of the poak facilities when there is also an indoor cing Secret just to in the building next to this track that we have here so if you want to have a go at some cting as well while the competition is happening on TR you can do so and please join us this weekend indeed well the carts fire up their engines and make their way out to the circle let’s take you through the starting lineup Danny karini and Finn m glockling going from row One V mvan and Austin Gale on row two Maxim blanan and kot nilson round out row number three Max hetel and Mattis Barb round out row four ahead of Adam rahale and Clement Wan on row five Manuel Vagner and mat zanki go from row six they have HK vuk and George Nassar on a row seven Miguel Silva and Roco CTO round out row number eight row number nine Rim Blanc and Annabel Bri we have Lis Tas and Conor Grant following on row number 10 row 11 Morgan Kon and Bam sat Mark ranada and clis n Road number 12 followed by Robie bulay Christian V [Music] matat vanber and ju Pablo gir do we have everybody on board yes we do 31 drivers entering the formation La two laps as always the one to get the Tes mg Tes have two temperatures the other one to keep doing so but suddenly do a more simp part to get everybody uh lied down and lined up for the finish of the grid and as we mentioned before so far so good in terms of starting procedures seems that our race director Martin Bean has been more than happy about the way things have been going in all three classes It’s Not Unusual to have a second sometimes third starting procedures as we run on board with mat oan here another strong name to keep an eye on from the zanki Motorsport Italian team who’s been really really working hard to find the pace and they did find that strong momentum so far in V off with Tony C Machine one of those racing teams using the otk product and there’s all sorts of different material here that we get to see competing in the IM EUR series different chassis different colors different liveries that’s uh very colorful isn’t it it is indeed uh false start has been declared on that one not going to say um I’m I’m just just jinx it yeah I think so no no you’re fine I’ll you can buy me a drink later uh race re being not happy with the formation on that one understandably there were gaps everywhere there was CS going too fast in some places it was just not a good getaway on that one uh I’m very curious I’m going to ask on the live commentary here to the producers that will be talking in my ear uh right now see if can we get a replay of uh the Marshall’s synchronization of dropping those yellow flags after the grid had gone past them on that red line because my goodness was that in perfect synchronization it’s like even the turnaround as well the Marshall’s here absolutely second to n we’re going to see it again I’m sure on this shot I just want to see if they’re going to be absolutely in sync on this one because I don’t know why it at hey there we go here’s a replay look at this rate car go past and flag drop oh just superb I love it I love it it’s so weird but I love it there we go I we might see it again now as the field make their way through there again the two Marshals getting themselves lined up ready to go on this one front of the grid nice and calm Nic and collected oh we’re going to see the shot ready 3 two 1 oh not in sck that time not in just down oh you’re being harsh I’m being no no no brilliant stuff there by the marshals uh right then this looks much nicer drivers getting themselves lined up ready for this one lights go green we are racing down towards c number one great start for Carini keeping ey mlin though he’s there third place fourth place maybe even fifth place as the inside line get through well down they go in towards turn number two oh again everyone getting squeezed out wide just in the background there but Danny Karan at the front of this one is leading the way ahead of Vil mvan yeah good get away for pretty much everybody here we’ve seen briefly One driver in the middle of the grid as we were coming across the start finish tra and uh he was just to the r director and certainly not happy about the starting procedure but still the lights went out and we went racing so we might need to see that again and the might be some penalties for him unfortunately despite not being happy if you’re outside of your corridors two or four wheels well that’s worth a couple of seconds of penalty for the ending result we’re not there yet we’ll see what comes out of that situation as lap one is completed and Danny Carini just already to Vos van they have one win each and uh Daniel was like okay stay with me let’s build that gap on Maxim blma in before climbing five places up to the top four run inside V man there he goes already and switching the position beautiful made from Dan corini he has experience you’ve seen that happen already today and yesterday and uh it’s not not the kind of trick that it will fall into the the sort of trap will fall into shall I say as Kini is back in the is van down in P2 and while doing that well we have Maxim blma the Frenchman coming in and getting close to the leading duet Adam maral at the wheel of his Victory Lane machine forther back Ortin Gil down in P5 from mat zanki followed by F mlin nson George NASA and cl UT in P10 not the best of start for f mlin he was on the front row of the grid and was only down to P seven after one lap yep so is while keeping a close eye on this top three right now as Adam Harley sets the fastest lap of the race in P4 is looking very very strong right now pushing himself forward uh in this race uh we’ll just keep an eye on how it progresses but certainly right now it’s looking very very strong we’re on lap three of 11 at the moment as the whole field just slotting itself into position everyone kind of in a train at the moment no uh real chances for overtakes in the early stages mlin has just got past mat zanki that was for P6 and seven so there are changes all the way throughout there and you can see there the tire choices Danny carnini and Vil maswan both choosing the same Tire Choice on this one both deploying a brand new set of tires on the left hand side of the cart as they make their way through and again that’s been a carbon copy for so many drivers playing on the left hand side because there are more right hand Corners the left hand side tie kind of helps around just uh get it round on the outside mclin now the fastest driver out in circuit currently in P6 is looking to recover now after starting on the front row the grid another change of the lead Vil musan back down the inside but this time makes it stick exactly what you want to see and Vil masran now breaking away Adam rahale under investigation and an early stage of the weekend at early stage of the race could it possibly for be a startline infringement that could be we might need to see that again um because it went very fast indeed as uh we’ll get back to that but uh knowing that he’s in P4 at the moment cly cly another kind of news that he will receive as you can see change in the qualify hits classification as well as it stands thean if he stays where it is would still be all leer with four points AA way with make up a place up to P2 andana aloya down into P3 classification you can follow on the life timing of Apex taming the official partner of the EUR series mat zi we’re just mentioning him on board with the Italian As He makes himself get away from Austin Gale he’s getting ahead just outside of the last Corner Mato zanki was 12 on the grid and currently sits in seven and now six place getting ahead of Austin game as we said back with the Le V Van Dan Carini outside of turn two glued together pretty much the question is when and where to pass we’ve seen those couple of over different spots being well explored by most of the contenders up there question is is there any more difference that can be made through the strike you heard that narini at the at our microphone earlier said how trick and difficult this secet can be for overtaking unless you fight the right spot and the right momentum but you you could expect your arrival to uh see where you’re going and close all the doors and at the moment one second it’s splitting danini and Maxim blma L man under pressure so to speak of his teammate adamali with f mlin in the meantime getting himself into P5 72 laps ago mataki gaale nasar as well as a P4 right now for Phil M was spotted there Anthony now we have to keep an eye as well on the race from the Irish driver putting out the fastest lap in this one and as you can see thek drive now up into B4 from Silva and Blan running out top 10 changes happening all the way throughout the field Roco Kio getting past Morgan cson for p14 Max hell getting past Annabelle Bren for P20 as well bertran sash moving up to 23rd ahead of ailia vaner Van overberg battling away still at the back of the field uh then Mato B getting past Juan Pablo Gerard as well so overtakes happening thick and fast back down the inside and Adam rahale getting the move done on Maxim banchan again those two switching positions constantly uh throughout this race mclocklin with the fastest lap of the race sub 50 seconds 49. 949 is closing in on these two ahead time we’ve got left 1.3 seconds it’s 1.2 seconds if you think about it to Danny Carini uh is it close enough concerning the start 421 four wheels and 314 no go 4 421 4 2 1 31 4 under investigation please well there you’re hearing under investigation for drivers and I believe one of those is beram sash under investigation uh the 314 and the 421 as well of Max hetel also under investigation so race control clearly keeping an eye on the entire field because those drivers are in the mid pack and uh dealing with a lot of uh drama as well so you can imagine it is a t time now they’ve got around 40 uh plus cameras out there watching the racetrack has race control you’ve got the three pairs of eyes in there plus you’ve got all the marshals out on circuit plus you got race director Martin be oh dear and that’s happened on track now who’s that it’s a sodic cart that’s falling down the order uh but who I couldn’t quite see the cart number on the side of the car I think it may be uh kard Nelson who is out of that one cuz he’s tumbled down the order and he’s in that one I think Connor Grant was the other as well so uh they’ve had a terrible uh end to their race in that one and the final stages of this one roll up turn of 11 Vasan leads the way Danny kinini is still there there in second place is karini going to go for the move here has stayed behind has not attacked waiting for the prime opportunity to try and go for it or just thinking I’ll stick with second place I’m happy with it it’s still a good position to be in I’m I’m going to lose out a couple more points here and there yes okay but it’s not the end of the world it’s not the end of the world even though the 266 out of the track was it that turn number four that’s oh that’s aelo van overberg unfortunately the driver had gain positions earlier on dropping back down to p28 action kicking off here B ban going defensive Danny karini is on the attack and we might have a response to your question as that not today happen Kini thing where he is watch out for f mlin as well anything can happen into that last La f m has nothing to lose there’s danini with a victory of P3 and P5 P2 were doing good even though last two happens two opportunities for Dan corini as you said Zan is going defensive into the last stages of that race from the outside watch out for Fein can he triy certainly one of the tricks of the book as Fein says keep on going because the victory is up for grab into the last Corner trying to get run the inside that was going to be a bit late and a bit tight for the driver to jump past but still vas van was able to hold on to that place D Carini we felt he was going to try and maybe one more lap would have been needed for the Italian driver to make a difference is going to have to make do with second place F down in P3 one more lap that could have been an entirely different story but uh that’s what we’re going to have to be content with at this point two more races for each of the drivers this afternoon for those two groups but what a beautiful battle that was Zan karini mlin that’s your final top three as another strong result in the bag for Dan kinini or overall p c in the class two more races this afternoon can add any more to that well another good result as well for Vilma San and uh just four points toan’s name leading the intermed classifications then ahead of in the classifications there on your screen Danny Carini finishing in second place head of f mlin rahali from Mato Gail from blanan nasar Silva blonc and Bob there as well goodio Buckley Buckley getting 12 positions in that one to finish p13 ahead of HK vuk clis nade ahead of Manuel Vagner finishing in P6 ahead of Morgan kson maxel under investigation uh as well as beron sash as well uh then it’s marada ahead of Annabel Bryan beram sash in 2 first place head of Christian vagani Clement utan not having the best race there dropping down 13 places to finish just outside the top 20 in 23rd L to finishing in 24th Place ahead of Mato Bergen viw then it’s Juan Pablo Gerard yank remat finishing in 27th Place the retirement amilio van overberg Dylan Patel uh K Nelson and Connor Grant unfortunately all out of that race good performance indeed it was for the drivers of the senior class in the a versus F qualifying race s van another win in the bag is second this weekend and the leading position still in the over all classification is a replay of how things played out into into this qualifying race with a good start from Dan kinini there ven van taking advantage of the inside line just behind the P taking P2 from f mlin hting g Maxim BL G nilson in the mix as we run on board with Matti zanki we’re starting from slightly further back P2 onto the grid into the belly of the monster already was able to extract himself uh from that place seven positions G up to P5 at the end of this race starting a little bit of a shake off on the outside of turn number three then on the outside of one of the sis out there chasing the 406 in the early stages of that race 406 with the dou the order forther back after that then it was battles at plenty once again we find ourselves with two leaders to start withan with the cro machine taking advantage of danini in lap number two but the Italian was quick to respond and uh as so he was taking the first place back and so was climbing through the field mat zanki into turn number nine on the way to a P5 finish at the end of this race as the battle was still raging with the two or4 just in front here mlin for BDK as the a driver with closing in on the two leaders while they were still expecting each other losing momentum as well while trying to defeat each other in the meantime mat zanki on Austin Gale the 226 Austin Gale with finish behind at the end in sixth position beautiful move down in turn number n just before that little bump at the end of the track and another move in the bag ahead of Maxim brma the young Frenchman that was a close score once again on the inside of that first half in turn number two Maxim BL would finish in the nend p7 just in front of his teammate NASA from Victory Lane two drivers coming together through that race one of them being I think danan Patel we get back to that as a 266 Emilo was lost toward the end of this race in the meantime the last few stages the last few laps we’re seeing the battle raging and taking another another turn between the V and Dan Carini trying to protect each other from the return of f m but the Irish Driver playing mind games in the last L and the last quarter and trying to get advantage on the inside of the Italian but it was maybe too short one up maybe too short for a different story to be played out and to be written at the end of this qualifying heat that’s so the final victory of V man from Dan Carini and F mlin ladies and gents stay with us because we have one more race before the lunch break uh through that Saturday of racing here in vas dorf C versus e the senior class still the last rotation of the morning we have 14 more races this afternoon with two more rotations for the seniors and the last two rotations for the genius and the mini thanks again once again for joining us here at the past of rers dorf and while we’re waiting for the next grid to make their way onto the track uh the people of the circuit have been you know reasonably happy reasonably busy shall I say happy certainly they are but busy as well uh going onto the track and uh taking back some of the unfortunate drivers back to the par so thanks again to everybody involved in the organization and thanks again to all Marshals who have been busy as well on the sidelines there is Ruben Moyer lining himself up pole position for this one has a fair tally of good results over his racing career and a PO position in qualifying as well in class we caught up with him after his qualifying session Ruben MOA congratulations as a F effort for you to start your weekend that was a perfect last lap that puts you ahead of the field I’m not very agree of the perfect last lap I made big mistake on the on the CH so I’m not I’m happy I’m first but I’m not very happy because I could aim easily to the to the overall poll position now I don’t think I will be in poll position overall so at the end is what the what it matters yeah I’m happy about the poll of my group but I’m not very happy about my lap so the weekend is only getting started of course a lot of races on the way to Sunday it’s been a while since we’ve come with the championship in vas dorf a word about the layout and the track and the possibilities here ni it’s a really nice layout here we see the proper drivers uh on the front so I already came I have a little bit of experience here from 2018 2019 back in back before the pandemic and everything so yeah I know a little bit the track it’s going to be difficult of course because we have uh many many Regional drivers that are really fast so it’s going to be tricky against them thank you very much congratulations great to hear there from Ruben Mo as the engines fire up then as the carts make their way out onto the track let’s take through the full starting lineup Ruben moer and Ricardo Ferrari go from row number one K Lee and Eloy Gonzalez who’s looking for another win to his name what can he do from the second row of the grid Micky blascos and kahal Clark round out row number three ahead of yan Lua and Phil stranger on row number four AKA Phil Collins row number five sees Rome Rell and Alex Mado they round out the top 10 Marcus luo championship leader starts alongside Colin Berber on row six Leonard Loni and Otto puklin go from row seven out of Alexander Ruta and Fred Green on row number eight row number nine we have Nicholas and toin grundal followed by car lard and Alexander bigy row 11 suan zenfari and L aser with yo and tomason R 13 Ro sa Angel M followed by matis vanderbrook K Max Carson BR oen brick K Schmid and Freddy Oley do we have everybody on board no we missing Lor such unfortunately driver from the Falcon racing team who was supposed to start from further back on the grid low s from 25th spot onto that grid and is nowhere to be seen hopefully it’ll be back for some more racing this afternoon a couple of interesting changes when it comes to re tires onto the grid we come to the phase of the weekend where everybody is trying to put all the eggs into the same basket and when it comes to Ruben Moya the p c he changed half of it set so with fresh rubber on the right side interestingly QA just behind him has decided to do the same but on the left side and so as I’ve done ELO Gonzalez and Ricardo Ferrari so interesting different strategies as you can see Jo fala SAR Blanco and Mel Rin the Tho of risk control personnel with all of the eyes focused on everything that’s happening on track and reporting to the officials for any decisions that could be needed to be made synchronization check are we going to get it between the marshals there the front of the field oh they’re pretty separated there this grid are we going to get synchronization yes look at that perfect uh right grid heading round into the final Corner uh there’s a look then at the the Tire Choice out there some drivers choosing not to go for any new tires they’re waiting a little bit later to deploy those right then drivers into the tram lines lights are green we are racing and it’s a great start from moer Ricardo Ferrari getting squeezed down on that inside curve there drops back a little bit in the field but still in this race the rest of the field five carts wide in the background there but it’s a great start still from the rest of them K Le sideways under breaking Eloy Gonzalez trying to get his nose down the inside not going to be able to do so stays there in P3 the TB card making its way through that is a brilliant start there uh for one of the drivers I’m trying to find out who that TB card is down the field uh I think that might be Alex masado that would be a brilliant start from masado if he’s got up to there already in P4 and make that scratch that yeah now P4 now down the inside gets past the zanky Motorsport driver uh of the 288 and I think that might be uh Colin verberg as well I think it’s been a brilliant start by some drivers yeah let’s have a look at how many places they’ve been able to climb Colin wenberg eight places up to four and five places gained for Alex marshadow cracking start in opening L for those two drivers indeed getting themselves into the top five Ruben Moya in the meantime having none of it 710 of a second built in just one round in front of Elo Gonzalez under the pressure of kol Le it’s going to be an interesting one because we have anel in the GP with the top three positions F back calling in marad fourth and fifth try to join the mix as well into time number nine now one is daring to move move in and out then we have jua P6 and Ricardo Ferrari making his way up to P six at the moment Alura p7 now from kah CL grundal and blascos running up the top 10 for green p 11 a couple of climbers as well through the field and these early stages of the race but uh that’s interesting El Gonzalez went from 7 to 3/10 of a second now with the fastest lap in the racean three wins in in the bag and maybe willing to add another one as Ricardo Ferrari is being investigated that’s an interesting one he’s the winner of round two in Fran corta is one of those new names that has been popping up at the Forefront this season is one of the contenders this weekend and while working his way through investigation has changed for the lead Alon Gonzalez taking P1 yeah indeed down the inside utilizing that fastest lap of the race he collected earlier on 50.9 57 seven is the time that these drivers are trying to match to try and match that pace with Eloy Gonzalez who immediately is already breaking away here Q Le right on that rear bumper is smelling weakness here from Ruben Moyer and will send it down the inside absolutely wheel tohe but moyá slams the door closed and denies Q Le the chance of getting through superb driving from both drivers as they continue their charge towards Eloy Gonzalez who’s break away well m still there also pukin now with the fastest lap of the race pukin who currently sits 11th Place on the track three places gained uh as everyone trying to break through on this race other overtakes on that last lap Romeo Rell uh up to 14th race Rell needing a good day today unfortunately was disqualified from one of his races uh earlier on yesterday I think maybe because of an incident involving a a traffic cone uh out on circuit but less said about that the better uh but yeah still he recovering back in this race and uh good to see that he’s gaining good positions in this one uh there down the inside second attempt from qo lead down the inside and that I think is SE sealed and done MOA though I don’t think wants it to be done he sends it back down the inside goes absolutely will towi and they both lose out Alex masado gets through into second place that is a superb start and the driver for TV cart racing is up eight positions now that that was an interesting defensive move from rben Moya run the inside once again on K Le and this time around he makes it through in turn number nine defensive driving as we said Ruben Mo I don’t think that was the wisest of choice to go for the right side of new rubber compared to his strongest Rivals close to him they all went for left M Ferrari ELO Gonzalez K all fresh re on the left side Reuben MOA on the right side suddenly deciding that this left was uh good enough for competing but is really really on a different PA a different Rhythm ever since the start of that race and look at him struggle actually car l in the meantime being overtaken by Ricardo Ferrari back in the mix in front of Colin grundal oh we’re going to have such a big group of drivers stuck together pretty much this is on up number six halfway through and oh and where driver is being squeezed this is the 412 from grundal by the look of it just in the behind K and through the shicane he lost a bit of momentum in the process he going back and left and right and back and forth at this point as run inside clipping the curb is kov on the 230 on ju Lua he going to drop a bit of momentum as well the Aquarian driver by the look of it in the meantime while they struggling to find grip and positions those three just pull away ELO Gonzalez Alex masado Ruben Moya your top three at the moment as we are here for the back my apologies with the 283 this is Colin in front of kle and the rest of the pack but uh this race is slightly turning into a thriller as rben Moya you can see went for the right side of new tires Burger decided to stay on the same Rubber and uh seems to be paying off at the moment oh de that’s not gone well at all for one of the Croc promotions that is Fred Green unfortunately in the 229 uh that has tumbled down the order now he was involved right in that mid pack in this sort of scrap that we’re seeing here and we’re still seeing more action here Louisa looking to the inside for the rmw Motorsport team pushing pushing himself forward there is Ricardo Ferrari uh now he sits right behind who Championship leader and Championship Contender Marcus luzio who is gaining positions in this race but at a a vastly slower rate than what he did earlier on replay here on screen action going on little bit out wide that is uh toban grundell there just getting squeezed off the track but got to say doing a great job of holding on to it and again oh he’s getting battered and bruised Diz he uh is gone down out there he will not be happy at all and that ah now that is how we lost Fred Green as well he was just caught out in that trap there and I think just the concertina effect of the the pack slowing down and they’re going full race Pace just squeezed him into a pinch point and we saw the 219 of Marcus luio as well being in that group squeezed a little bit on the side of the track we have to be careful out there P9 at the moment luio oh and another driver that we have lost could it be blascos I don’t think it was or we’re going to get back to that but another driver heading to the list of unfortunate competitors into the chicane back with Colin dban grundal on your picture as well at 264 car Le Colin and Le this is for P4 then ala Pon gundal as you can see p8 after climbing 10 positions this was the right choice of tires for this qualifying race coming to an end this will conclude as well the first part of the day ladies and gentlemen the morning almost to be done 14 races more this afternoon so plenty of action to be follow Live on YouTube Facebook and Motorsport TV as always with 1.7 seconds I don’t think that no one will be able to uh take the victory away from AO Gonzalez on his way to a number four Victory out of five races an impressive run from alen Gonzalez he can certainly be so much beaten up about p19 and his penalty that he picked up earlier yesterday otherwise he would be leading and crushing any new position into that senior class but as we’ve seen many times and run inside Q beautifully made for P4 as we have seen many times qualifying Heats is one thing super hit and Final are another and sometimes it can go your way can go the other way around as well on the next day but plenty of things to see yellow flags out on track and they are at turn number nine two drivers in the barrier and I think uh it is going to be uh 400 of Carl schmida and M Mickey blascos I think the two drivers out of the track double waved yellows off the circuit but but all the meanwhile they’re coming into that now is Elo Gonzalez you can see that just in the background there and uh well drama unfolding on this final lap of the race but clearly for ELO Gonzalez the results he will have wanted like you said there a p19 earlier on but now bumps himself up to eighth in the intermediate classifications as the rest of the drivers now start to struggle with their results he is slowly eeking his way up the board it’s Eloy gonzale for Spain across the line takes his fourth qualifying Heat win from the rest madoo from MOA K Lee and Colin berenberg the top five there I think was Carl Schmid just walking away there uh Mickey blascos also a driver involved in that one I think also walking away which is H good to see but they had a big hit to the wall there the exit a turn number a nine nearing the end of that race and certainly you can see the stricken Cuts in the back back ground there quite an uncomfortable one for them drama happening in the later stages of that last qualifying race of the morning indeed is the classification end full Gonzalez Moreno from B racing his fourth Victory out of five Alex masado brilliant performance from the tbat drive eight places G up to P two from Ruben MOA K going in wenberg seven places up in within the top five Auto Pi in eight places gain up to P six from jua Robert gondal 10 places recovered from Marcus luio and Ricardo Ferrari for your top 10 11 B kahal Clark from Lou Esser Phil strength Nika Romel B15 B16 for the Revenant suan andari first time in the card since last year’s World Championship in Italy would you believe in front of aland piggy ano Mell Mattis Vander Brook P20 for car lart followed by Lotz oan brick Freddy Oley Max yo Alexander rut Fred Green and a couple of drivers that we lost Lor s didn’t take part in this race thas coron Leoni vascos and car schider all missing out at the end of this race while ELO Gonzalez well can walk away back to the tent with an immense feeling of Pride certainly yeah well they started that one a little bit interesting Ruben Moyer holding on to the lead it was Ricardo Ferrari got squeezed a little bit on that first Apex and then ended up under investigation again maybe for tramline infringement we’re not too sure we have no idea uh the race continuing though great start for Eloy Gonzalez just gaining those positions early doors keeping that pace there keeping that momentum you see that the Gap that he had to himself and Ruben Mo at the start of that race we were thinking well this is going to be a MOA freight train here he’s going just going to drive away from the rest of the field but that didn’t happen did it the pace he closed in and was immediately able to go for the move did have to wait a couple of laps but got the job done and moved past you can see the shake of the head from Mo just thinking what what what’s happened to the PACE where’s the pace gone you can see a q as well also trying to get past as well yeah remember that R Moya decided to go for half of a new set on the different side than the rest of his Rivals he went for the right side while K and Ricard Ferrari especially H Gonzales went for the left that might have played a difference and a part in the drop off overall pace for rben who kept struggling and going defensive trying to hold on to those positions get back in course ahead of K at some point on his way to a P3 considering all the trouble he’s been into Reuben Moya is can be satisfied with that P3 finish in the end even though he hasn’t been able to fight for the win as grundal was squeezed a little bit on the outside kept it going with two wheels on the grass we saw the lights of Marcus luio grundal as well and someone else being involved that’s how we lost Fred Green being Tangled there there and going for a spin that would lead to his retirement still with us but 26 and dead last in the end of the race as Leonardo longoni TPA driver was walking away from his card having to dnf towards the end of the race big big drama with two drivers coming together car schmider and Miguel blascos unfortunately for them hitting the wall outside of turn number nine well it would be another fabulous win for Eloy Gonzalez he’ll be delighted with that one as he slowly EES his way up that order well the track will now fall silent for a few moments time as the paddock goes for a lunch break we’ll be back in 48 minutes for the rest of the racing Juniors and minis coming out after
