The weather forecast was not so good but in the end the weather was almost perfect during the weekend that was very good.
Starting with 1/10, my car was working so far so good as I made the European Championship one week before and everything was prepared for this ENS. I've TQed five qualifies starting like this in the first position for the final. In the final everything worked as we expected I did only one tire change in 45 minutes as the new surface was very good with a great grip and not so much tire wear.
In 1/8 it was more difficult. In qualifies i've fight with Simon in all rounds for the win but he was a little stronger managing the TQ.

In the 1/8 final I started second but not so good giving gave some space to Simon but our strategy should have given us some seconds. Unfortunately we ran out of fuel in the middle of the final costing us the fight for the win in the end.
It was one more great weekend with a very good atmosphere and one more weekend where we learned a lot about our XRAY RX8 that made us closer to fight for the World Championship in France!
