At about 5th minute of the semifinal A a heavy rain came in and the race director had to stop the race. We had to wait about 1.5 hour until it was decided the race could continue. Finishing first in this semifinal I got 1st position on the grid for the main final. Since the track was still muddy The final race was shortened to 30 minutes. I was lucky to get a clean start again without any collision and I maintained my 1st position until the end of race.
