Race report by Lorenzo Crolla
This week was the first round of the RCmag brushless tour hosted in Charleroi at Black Country Arena.

Friday was free practice all day. I tried different sets of tires and add some changes to the car to find rear grip and more steering.

Saturday was the qualifying day, there meant to be 5 qualifications but the first round of qualifications became a practice round so at the end only 4 qualifications were run. I finished 3rd in the 1st, 2nd and 3rd round, little mistakes cost a lot on this track. I TQed the last round and this gave me 2nd place on the grid for the A final.

On Sunday the 4 final runs were on schedule. The first one was really close fight with Nicolas Risser, with only 0.09 seconds difference at the end of the 10minute run but I finish 2nd. In the 2nd round I had electronic problems and had to retire. In 3rd run I tried a new set of tires but it wasn't the right choice and I only secured 3rd place. In the last final I had again electronic problems. I finish 3rd overall, which is a good result for me and I’m very happy about the performance of my XB8E'15 and my new tires.
