For some this might have been return to past,where they were running single make races with very similar cars,not because it was so much fun,but because you simply wanted to reach 100% completion. However this was not just a "real driving simulator" on a console,this was a proper racing sim with actual human rivals and the field was much bigger - a total of 26 cars were standing on grid and ready to race. The K-car type car delivered just 64 horsepower,so it was surely no high speed race,but still the average race speed exceeded 100 km/h,despite just 4 drivers being able to exceed 150 km/h top speed mark during the race. This race reached a milestone yesterday in RTFR history - the total distance of all RTFR races exceeded 25 thousand kilometers.
Despite this race being just half as fast as previous race,it was won by the same driver,even if he's rather known for racing faster cars - Gábor scored the 2nd race win in row and started his 4th winning streak,only his teammate and latelly in RTFR inactive Botsi has more winning streaks. Additionally Gábor added to his stats the 24th racewin,17th pole position (tied 3rd most now),19th fastest lap of the race and 49th top5 finish,but in country level he scored 30th racewin for Hungary - it's the 3rd country reaching this mark. After some more or less physical disputes on track R.Kardol secured the 2nd place finish,which is his 79th top5 finish,his rival Fatal did not report anything,so the after race discussions reached some settlement between drivers - 3rd in the results for the finn,which is his 21st top5 finish. From 17 previous RTFR starts PedroBR was able to reach 9th as his best finishing result,seems he found his specialisation car as he finished 4th yesterday,while his 6th place in qualifying halved the number of his best previous best qualifying. His more experienced teammate Michal closed the top5 - the 101st RTFR start brought him 12th top5 finish.
