In 2WD Buggy Zsolt Bajusz Junior, Balint Rajki and Zsolt Bajusz made up the top 3 positions after the qualifying. In the opening A-main Zsolt Jr. and Rajki had a nice run with Balint waiting for a mistake of Zsolt but the latter had a flawless run and so the two would come in 1-2 and separated by only 0.2s. The second main was a different affair though as Balint made an early mistake while the leader had a comfortable gap. The lead would change many times though and ultimately it was Balint with the win in A2. For A3 Zsolt Jr. tried different tyres but it did not went to plan for him and Balint was able to get into the lead and bring home the win and with it the overall victory from Zsolt Bajusz Jr. and Daniel Schweizer.
