Sudden death of Michael Jackson shocked the world. In his tribute our drivers wore special skins for this event.

This combo showed as not perfect for our drivers already in qualifying, when three guys were between our drivers and pole position. RudiTurbo showed the best pace and took his first pole of season. Followed by Luisii on second, also his best result of the season. Third and fourth were Hugo and Karolis. Dominic from prodrive took his best qualifiyings result too with 5th and Niki was only 6th.

But race showed as something else. Great experience from our guys showed as crutial and Dominic was passed already in lap 2 by Niki. Luisii was holding Karolis and Hugo for as long as he could, but in lap 4 he made mistake and crashed out in chicane. Due all this mess with Luisii, Karolis and Niki passed Hugo.
Niki defended for almost 20 laps, but in the end Hugo outsmarted him. You can check this whole fight and read Niki's personal thoughts on every situation on his youtube video.

Rudi, unlike Luisii and Dominic, is experienced and knew perfectly how to use the situation. While Luisii was trying to hold our guys up, in only those four laps, before Luisii finished his race Rudi made enough gap to have a very calm race.

Even with results still unofficial, we can be sure this is going to be record score of points for some team in one event in OLFSL.
We might wait for a bit longer then usual to see results from this event, because of posible penalties for cutting the T3.

We're heading back to England for next round on Westhill with XRT.
