IRC made a flawless event and the race was ran on medium grip ETS-carpet although most discussions during the weekend being about the âśBAKU F1-replicaâť track containing narrow passes, tight chicanes as well as non-forgiving walls and corner markings.

In the Touring car class Victor Wilck made a clean sweep taking both TQ as well as all three A-mains. Runner up was Marcus von Elling on the first time out with the new T4-17 car. Wilck had a good speed during all weekend and even though the speed was up for the rest of the pack, Marcus was the only driver who managed to match Wilck´s sub-12 second lap times with just 0.2 of a second behind. The battle for second spot was between Marcus von Elling and Fabian Wernersson where the latter had to settle for third.
