2017 SEASON 1 1:10 SC TRUCKS 13.5T ROUND 7 RC Exitement II
RC Exitement II was hosting 7th round race of SC 13.5 serie. In PRO class Finnish driver Ilari Lamminsivu was unbeatable, this 19 years old talent was in top spot at qualifying, beating Britains Reece Hodges with 3s margin. In semifinal Hodges lifted his pace with one 10th in average, but still Lamminsivu was 2s faster. Third grid went to Hong Kong`s Carson Yeung. Yeung was way too far with his pace to challenge those two at front.
When grid was arranged for the A-main, Hodges was missing. So, with same fast and consistent style it was well expected that this would go to Lamminsivu. And he didnt let us down, he continued what he started and drove very clean and stable run. Well deserved win for Ilari!
Carson Yeung took what he could, second place was magnificent result and 9s gap to winner wasnt bad. Russian driver Valeri Kornilov started from the 5th grid and crossed the line in third place. Svoba who started from 4th grid, flipped his car at lap three and this helped Kornilov to gain to third place.
Ilari Lamminsivu(FIN) was unbetable in every round
In SPORT level Gaetan Anger, Sigurdur Elíasson and Niki Josefsson filled the podium. Anger was most consistent and crossed the line in first place. Elíasson instead had 3s mistake at first lap and this made his day harder. But this did not break his rhythm, and with his pace, he made great survive and got second place. Distance to Anger was 5.4s.
Niki Josefsson in third place had two mistakes, what gave him over 3s extra. These mistakes gave chances for Joe Killam to gain to third place, but Josefsson hold his nerves and was 0.6s ahead of Killam when race ended.
Gaetan Anger has dominated the sport level and has secured the championship
In CLUB level we saw Team America domination. Mike Howe was strongest and took the win with 10s margin before David Roupp. Third and last podium place was driven by Mark Thompson.
Roupp, Thompson and fourth place Manuel Weber had great fight, as these three were inside 0.288s when race ended.
