It was a perfect weekend for
In the free practice on Friday, Olsen had to settle for the second quickest time, however in the qualifying on Saturday he posted pole position. When the race took off on Sunday in temperatures of 20 degrees Celsius, the youngster from the Norwegian town of Våler immediately put several metres between him and the other 32 pilots. In the race watched by large Formula 1 crowds, Olsen gradually increased the gap to his pursuers to ultimately bring home a commanding victory. Behind him a fight for positions raged: Pereira, who had taken up the race from the second grid spot, was overtaken in lap five by Ammermüller.
Pereira, who already achieved a podium result at Spielberg, took the flag in third place after 13 laps. “Michael Ammermüller is an experienced driver who immediately makes the most of any mistake and he overtook me. Still, I’m very happy to hold a trophy in my hands,” said Pereira. Daniel Cammish (GB/Lechner MSG Racing Team) from Great Britain narrowly missed out on a podium result with fourth place, but made the Lechner success perfect. Fifth place went to his compatriot Josh Webster (GB/Fach Auto Tech) ahead of Robert Lukas (Olimp Racing) from Poland.
In the overall classification, Ammermüller leads with three wins and 96 points. Right behind him is Olsen with 84 points ahead of Cammish (70). In the Nations League, Germany ranks first ahead of Norway and Great Britain. In the rookie classification, Olsen is first, with Lindland at the top of the B classification.
