Kaerup just holds off Ongaro to take A1
An intense A1 of 4WD at the IFMAR 1:10 Offroad World Championship saw Top Qualifier Marcus Kaerup just hold off defending Champion Davide Ongaro as the two Team Associated drivers dogged it out over the 5-minutes. With Kaerup struggling out of the corners, Ongaro was all over the rear wing of the Dane making contact on a number of occasions. The Italian’s big chance to go to the front would come as the race approached the final minute, Kaerup catching the pipe at left side double and coming up short on the landing. However Ongaro would land on the inside pipe and miss the corner handing the lead right back. With Ongaro then coming under pressure from the Xray of David Ronnefalk, Kaerup was able to bring home the win. Having got by his team-mate Phend, when they touched wheels coming off the main straight & into the double double, the American coming off worst, Ronnefalk completed the Top 3 ahead of Mugen Seiki’s Burak Kilic and Schumacher’s Daniel Kobbevik.
