Lauri Ruotsalainen took the win at the second round of the Finnish 1/8 championship series.

As usual in the Finnish 1/8 series the drivers were really talented with many fast drivers attending like Joona Haatanen, Ari Heinonen, Joseph Quagraine, Max Mört, Pekko Iivonen and many more.

The new layout of the Fullspeed RC 1/8 track, the track were the 2018 nordics are held later this year, proved to be highly successful and racers were praising the new layout requiring precision and a good car setup.

In the morning Ari Heinonen, Lauri Ruotsalainen and Joseph Quagraine were all driving fast but in the end Ari managed to take the TQ.



In the 45min A main Max Mört started first with Ari second and Lauri third. Lauri managed to pass both Ari and Max in the first lap and from there Lauri was controlling the pace. With many drivers making a lot of mistakes Lauri drove an almost flawless race and led from the first lap all through the race. Ari ans Max were fighting for the second place but as Max flamed out before the second pit stop it was Ari who was chasing Lauri. Lauri managed to avoid problems and crashes and finished comfortably in front of Ari. The fight for third was a tight battle between Joona Haatanen and Joseph Quagraine but Joona proved to have slightly better speed and pulled away and as JQ ran out of fuel on the last lap Joona took a comfortable third place. Fourth was JQ, fifth Samppa Orhanen and sixth Markku Honkanen

This was Lauris first Finnish championship win and we are happy to have Lauri in our team! Lauri has been practising very hard for many years and it has been great to see how much Lauri have improved.
