SEASON 2016 electric nascartruck modified, round 8, Jundiai Sao Paolo
TIMED PRACTICE
Starting round of this event, three drivers were separated from others with their own laps. Two Italians, Giordano and Andreuccetti and Huhtala from Finland hitted 18 laps, all inside 2.5 seconds.
Fourth fastest driver was Dunkl from Austria, having 12 seconds gap to the leader Giordano. Philippe Gross from Switzerland and Steve Pitts from USA got fifth and sixth place from this round. Dunkl, Gross and Pitts were really close each other, all inside 2 seconds.

Like in earlier races, everybody was just getting miliar with the track, as it had very tricky corners and alltitude difference 3 meters.

You have another 2 weeks to chew on the track selection for Season 3 before we implement the new schedule. Season 3 will start on Saturday Septemb... read more
