Practice was held on Saturday. The weather forecast for the whole weekend was very difficult but the sun was shining and the track got a lot of grip. Mario and Philipp were searching for a good setup and in the evening there was a timed practice were Mario and Philipp took the fastest time.
It rained during the night, so because of that we waited until Sunday morning for the track to dry.

During the morning the drivers decide to make a race with only qualification rounds. We tried to do six rounds of qualification. In his class, Mario had a fast car in the first three rounds but Martin Strittmatter was a bit faster; with more grip on the track he was getting faster and he won the last two rounds and got his second victory for this year.

In the Open Stock class it was a tough battle between Philipp Hagnauer, Bernhard Stutz and the whole TOP Team (Helbach Stephan, Koch Michael, Hauser Florian and Tschupp Philipp). Philipp won five of six rounds. That seems like an easy victory but in every round there were at least three drivers within just one second.

In the Pro10 Class, Christian Seiler dominated with his X10 Link and took the victory.
So this weekend was perfect for XRAY!
