On Friday we practiced and changed the set-up because we had too much grip.
On Saturday we had 2 timed trainings and 2 qualifications but it was raining and the track was wet so we had to change the set-up again.
Sunday we had the last qualification and I got the 5th time so straight to the 1/2 finals so we had tot wait til 16:00 for the 1/2 final. We changed some things in the set-up but it didnâ™t work and I finished 4th.

For the final we changed the set-up again and with the warm-up the car felt good. I started on 7th position and with the start I was able to pass 2 cars. The whole 30 minutes where a nice fight for the 3th position with Jordi Velder took place but I was able to take the 3th place.
I am very happy with my XRAY XB8, my FX engines both on clay and Astro-turf.
