Kaja Novotny TQs & wins Czech Open Rd1

Round 1 of the popular Czech Open series was held this past weekend in Radotin. The weather forecast was everything but promising with rain expected for Friday and Saturday but at the end it stayed dry although it was pretty cold. Xray’s Kaja Novotny would dominate the proceedings by winning all three qualifying rounds to grab the overall TQ after the qualifiers. The semis then again were a done deal for young Kaja who secured himself the pole position for the main final in which he then again showed a flawless performance to take the win at round one of the championship. Behind him, Max Gotzel and Lukas Zeman (both Xray) would complete the podium result.
