Austrian Electric On-road Nationals Rd2 – Report

The second round of the Austrian Electric On-road Nationals was held at the countryside track of the SFMAV near Salzburg. Overall 40 racers attended this round in the classes of Touring Car Modified, Touring Car Stock and Formula. With the beginning of the qualification heats rain started to fall, but with an one hour delay the qualifiers were started and beside one short interruption the race would go ahead as planned. In Touring Car Modified Dominic Vogl was the man to beat. Again he and his Yokomo performed impressively. As in the first round Dominic had some issues in the qualification heats, but he finally took the TQ with the fastest heat and fastest lap of the race as Dominic was the one and only driver in Modified who was able to go 20 laps. Mario Sowka would line up in 2nd, followed by Christoph Ramsauer and Toni Eder. In the finals Dominic was unbeatable and he made a clean sweep in A1 and A2. Mario won the A3 and therefore he got the overall runner up spot followed by Toni, both running on Serpent.

F1ItalianSeries GP13 & 14 – Report

Last weekend the F1ItalianSeries left the city of Rome for a maiden race at the beautiful track of the Rce Model Tuscia in Montefiascone. The track proved to be quite narrow and a sequence of fast and slow corners made it very difficult to learn as well. The 1-day event on Sunday started off with very good weather and the qualifying of GP 13 in which all 16 drivers made the Q1 with the 10 fastest drivers proceeding to Q2 to set the best time and hunt the pole position. At the end it was Davide Morgani (Renault) who took the pole from 2nd placed Manciocchi (Hesketh), 3rd was Lenci (Aguri), 4th Giorgio (Hesketh) and 5th Nicosanti (Lotus).
