All sub and semi finals also showed to be very close racing and on a track that was heavily bumpy with big holes. It was really demanding to get around without tipping the car.

In the final I had huge problems with the conditions and my tires were not the right choice. I used the GRP Grip but all the fast drivers used the Crimefighter and cutting the edge of the tire to prevent tipping.

I also realized that for such a bumpy track the car must not be to soft â“ it has to fly from edge to edge and especially in the front it has to be with hard damping and soft springs. Straight 1.4mm holes in the front with 400 oil should have been with 500 oil â“ in the rear I think straight 1.5mm holes with 400 oil is ok. We found out the conical holes does not work for a bumpy track.
