Green was most of the time in 3rd place following Pietsch and Wichnevski closely, in last 10 minutes a small stone caught his 1st gear and broke it. Over....

Marc Fischer had a crash with Krapp in Final 1 and Final 2, so he ended last in both.
In the 3rd run Fischer had a superb pace. A stop and go penalty slowed him down a bit, but after this break, his race-pace was even better, setting the fastest lap-time of the 3rd run of all, and finishing a superb 4th place in the end.
The 3 results together meant a 8th place overall.
Looking forward to the DM in september and the ETS races in 2011.
