Orlowski completes double at EOS Daun

Having won 2WD Buggy on Friday, Schumacher’s Michal Orlowski completed the perfect weekend at EOS Daun in Germany as he carried that form into 4WD to again take the TQ & win.  Setting the pace in practice ahead of Xray’s Bartosz Zalewski, in the four qualifiers the Pole would go fastest in the opening and closing rounds to secure pole for the finals.  Topping the second round of qualifying ahead of Orlowski and Daniel Kobbevik, Zalewski would secure P2 on the grid.  With a TQ run in Q3, 2WD runner-up Kobbevik put his Schumacher third on the grid with Joona Hataanen the best of the Team Associated drivers in fourth.  In A1, Orlowski would take an easy win with Kobbevik finishing second 4-seconds back having touched with Zalewski on the opening lap.  A2 would be a much closer affair as Zalewski pushed his compatriot hard, the duo the only drivers to run 16-second fastest lap times, but Orlowski stayed out front and wrapped up the perfect weekend.  With A3 deciding who would join him on the podium, Zalewski cruised to the win ahead of Haatanen to claim second place overall.  With Kobbevik making a number of errors and finishing A3 in 9th it allowed Haatanen to claim the final step on the podium.
