Ellerbrock executes perfect race to become new Spec World Champion
Germany’s Lukas Ellerbrock executed the perfect World Championship winning performance today at Huge RC Circuit to become the third ever IFMAR Spec Electric Touring Car World Champion and keep the title with Awesomatix. With team-mate Simon Lauter, the Spec World Champion from 2-years ago in California stepping up to Modified and mixing it at the sharp end this year, a new World Champion was always going to be crowned in Thailand. While team-mate Olivier Bultynck was the pace setter in practice, come qualifying the No.7 seed came into his own topping 4 of the 6 rounds of qualifying to wrap up an early TQ. With Bultynck fastest in Q2, the Belgian line-up second ahead of Q6 winner & current European Champion Max Machler. With Awesomatix the dominant force, it was Xray’s 2025 European Champion Adam Izsay who was the nearest challenger qualifying P5. In the finals, Ellerbrock led an Awesomatix formation in A1 the Top 3 finishing as they started with the Top Qualifier posting the fastest lap of the race. A2 would be a repeat of A1 will Ellerbrock securing an early title with the win. While never really in doubt, Bultynck won A3 from Machler and young Awesomatix driver Phil Langner to complete an all Awesomatix podium.
