The Eurosport 24 cars before the main final

Tomas Rosenberg and Brian Saunders

Jiri Karlik

Antonin Vojtik, Peter Krcil and Vladimir Horky

Ladislav Szalai and Janis Sneiders

In the main Vladimir Horky started in a higher pace than I normal have seen turning a 4.33 time on his first lap followed by a low 4.2 in his second lap on high ground clearance and cold tires.
After the first heat Horky 71. Jirka Karlik and Petr Krcil 69.
In the second heat Jirka on a faster lane catched Horky with both drivers now on 171 laps.
After this Horky was able to get a lead and extend it a few laps every heat with Jirka in second.

Last heat
The last heat was very tight all places below first place which belonged to Horky.

Jirka Karlik on 473 with red lane to go.
Close behind, ending on black lane, Antonin Vojtik on 472 laps.
Ladislav Szalai on 469 with his last lane purple. Four laps from second place but with a better purple lane compared to Jirkas red and Antonins black.

Further down and not really in the contest, we thought, Janis Sneiders on 467 with blue lane to drive.

No driver had yet changed any tire. Early on we saw Petr Krcil changing tires.

Early on it was obvious that Jirka could hold his place compared to Antonin and that Antonin had to watch out for Ladislav.
Yet now one except for Petr had changed tires.
Towards the end it was suddenly obvious that Janis Sneiders had been forgotten running fast and passing both Ladislav and then Antonin to get third place.
