Eriksson touched a tire barrier in Q1 jokerlap and lost a good place but made it up by his ‚round the outside first corner‘ in Q2. Otherwise a P6 for Timo Scheider and P10 for Kevin Eriksson after Q2 left all options open.
Friendly visit of former F1 driver David Coulthard in the paddock. He was very impressed with what we achieved as a private team.
Very satisfactory day 2 at HockenheimRX. Both Timo Scheider and Kevin Eriksson drove great Q3 and Q4 races and placed 6th and 9th respectively overall. They will drive in different semifinals with Scheider from row 2 and Eriksson from row 3.
Another win by Ekström in the final but truly unlucky semifinals for both Eriksson and Scheider. Both had cars spin in front and crash into them. Both were in positions with chances for a final. Especially Eriksson’s lap times were excellent. Ken Block’s crashbar destroyed Scheider’s intercooler and steering pump and it was amazing that he managed to drive it home.
The team had good speed all weekend and we know that we are always good for a final.
