Yesterday at Bolzano the third round of the CI UISP was held. In spite of the weather forecast that threatened rain, the weather has been clement and allowed us to carry out a dry race. The track is one of the smallest and most technical I have ever seen.

After a great recovery, Nerone passed second place and closed ahead of Romagnoli. In the second final, Nerone does not make any mistakes and won with a margin over Romagnoli; Mazzini took advantage of more than one error by Magnocavallo who finished fourth.

Modified Class
To drive on such a small racetrack with powerful models pushed by mod engines fueled by Lipo Battery was simply beautiful. The qualification saw Rabitti Riccardo over Martini (XRAY) and Sala. These three pilots were the only ones to get 28 laps. In the second, Rabitti bettered himself again on the fourth minute, while Martini looked like he could better the Rabitti performance but ended up breaking and was forced to retire. The third place of this qualification was won by Rabitti Stefano better known as Bitty design. The third qualification was spoiled by a light which slowed the circuit and drivers; no-one improved.

Starting order for the finals:
1. Rabitti Riccardo
2. Martini Francesco XRAY T2'008
3. Sala Federico
4. Rabitti Stefano
5. Rabitti Davide
6. Romagnoli Michele
7. Torreggiani Luca XRAY T2'008
8. Assali Simone
9. Baldisarri Daniel
10. Donadelli Marco XRAY T2'008

In the first finals, the top positions remained unchanged. Rabitti Riccardo over Martini followed by Rabitti Stefano and Torregiani (XRAY). The second final was marked by a slower Rabitti who got long on a curve and while Martini got by starting again he hit him and lost several positions. After a great recovery with difficult passing Martini closed behind Rabitti Riccardo and got in front of Rabitti Davide, another real fast driver. By the third final the games are finished as far as the first position goes, but it was an exciting final to sees the usual Rabitti-over-Martini battle, making 29 laps followed by a really fast Sala by one lap. The peculiarity of this final is that the first 7 places coincided with the starting order!

Final results:
1. Rabitti Riccardo
2. Martini Francesco XRAY T2\'008
3. Sala Federico
4. Rabitti Stefano
5. Rabitti Davide
6. Torreggiani Luca XRAY T2\'008
