• There will be Final races with 6 cars each, the amount of finals (A,B,C...) depends on total attendance
  
• Your qualifying result determines your group and grid position for heat 1
  
• Your race time from heat 1 determines your group and grid position for heat 2

TimDC via discord: Start A final between T1 and T2 (chicane)

TimDC and Egroka collided while going for the same spot on the track. As Egorka had sufficient overlap per O-1 and neither driver did not intentionally hit the other, the situation is deemed as a racing incident.

The results posted above are confirmed as official

With 21 drivers setting a laptime in qualifying and 18 of them taking part in the heats and finals, we can call the debut of our new rallycross event format a success.

Fastest in qualifying was Suforr, who got the pole position in the fastest split of heat 1. Next to him in that split were the other top 4 qualifiers: Kyril, TimDC and Egorka, all of which eventually made it to the A-final.

After three sets of heat races, we had our drivers divided into A-, B-, C- and D-finals according to their two best race times from the three heats combined. D-final was won by Abscargot, which granted him a slot into C-final from the back of the grid. The C-final was won by first round winner Lorenzo, who was in turn promoted to B-final. He had to settle for 6th in the final (11th overall) while Dodislaw fought his way to the A-final by winning. In the A-final he joined the previously mentioned top 4 of qualifying and El Nano, who was 5th fastest during the heat races. It was a close battle for the win until the very end between Suforr and Kyril. It looked like Suforr could hold his rival behind, but in the last corner of the final lap he went for a defensive move on the inside, which allowed Kyril to go around the outside and take the win by only 0,02s! Egorka completed the podium, while El Nano took fourth, Dodislaw fifth and TimDC sixth after an unlucky contact in the start.

Next round will be the final one in Rockingham this season before we switch to the next track environment. Currently Suforr leads the quarterly (and overall) standings just ahead of Lorenzo. Will he be able to secure enough points from the slick tyre round to be granted the choice of our next track environment? We will see in just two weeks time.

Full information for round 2 will be posted at least a week before the event on the forum.
