The second final showed some really tight, but 100% clean racing between Markus and Magnus, where Magnus was pretty much as tight behind as it is possible for the first minutes. However Markus did not make any mistakes this time and managed to secure the win of final number 2.
It all came down to the third final, with both Markus and Magnus having chance of victory.
