The fact is that jo.sk sealed the Coimbra_SE from the R-Race. He drove magnificently the Opel Calibra, which proved to be most suitable here in Portugal and also had the luck to score 5 AI pts by lapping down all 5 of them. Unbelievable indeed!

akouk tried to fight  back, but it seemed impossible. Although he got the pole, he lost the lead by the end of the first lap and didn’t return to it. He managed to stay in touch with the leader for a few rounds, but the French consistency and the Calibra’s top speed left him no chance.
Behind, robylu, who had challenged the leader in the qualification, drove a rather lonely good race, ahead of local hero xxflip, who was worshiped by the crowds all race long.
Now everybody will drive the Calibra for the 5 Km Sprind, starting in reverce order.
We may have a Round1 winner already, but prestige and honor are equaly as important!

The sprint was close, as expected. With all drivers riding the same car, everyone had a good chance of challenging one another. Jo.sk missed this one, but he won the overall classification non the less, thanks to his brilliant R-Race performance. With the French out, akouk won the sprint with a good performance, ahead of a great robylu, who challenged respectively for the win. xxflip took the third podium seat, before the exited Portuguese crowd.
The Calibra is fast but hard to handle and the official’s congratulations goes to all participants for their time and effort.
