Andraz Stefe takes Slovenian Electro Challenge title

The final round of the Slovenian Electro Challenge was held in Blatni Dol with the title decision still being open. Andraz Stefe had the best chances to take the overall win as he only had to score a top 4 finish to take the championship. Despite using a newly built car with an out-of-the-box setup Andraz immediately set the pace and he took the pole position for the triple A-finals of which he won two to take the day’s win and with it the overall championship.
