2017 VRC WORLDS 1:8 RALLY-X SPEC

01.12.2017

ANGER WINS RALLYX SPEC WORLDS, ROJAS LOOSES IT...

In an eventful 10 minute final, French Geatan Anger has won the 2017 title RallyX Spec in Pro class after a fierce battle with hot favorite and TQ Ely Rojas. Rojas took an early lead closely followed by Anger and Hillman until he smacked the car into a pylon in the second chicane in lap 9. Rojas charged hard to get back to the front. He took back the lead in lap 18 and looked poised to take the title but 2 laps before the end he misjudged the big jump on the backstraight, tumbled over several times, spun out again and had to let Anger and also Hillman by who were waiting for that one mistake.

SPORTS CLASS: Lourenco takes title, Portugal dominates

In Sports class Nuno Lourenco from Portugal took top honors, a lap clear from Valery Kornilov from Russia and Nuno Correia from Portugal. Lourenco took the lead in lap 4 and never looked back, despite a big error in lap 16, but he had enough of a lead to cruise home victorious.

SPORTS Class:

CLUB CLASS: Lavrentyev wins Club in dominating style

Russian Denis Lavrentyev dominated the Club A-Main, took the lead in lap 1 and nver looked back. His result would have placed him at the top of Sport class and 5th in Pro! Brandon Scobee (US) and Thomas Fischer (A) completed the podium but with over a lap down couldn't really threaten Denis.
