DHIt seemed like Claudio and Nico couldn't really make up their mind about what tire to use. "If it stays dry we probably going to use the white tiger but if it is going to rain, what the forecast is, we will definitely use the black turtle," according to Nico Vink.Come Sunday's race it started raining in the morning and it didn't stop until the race was over. With a 23rd place finish in these conditions, Nico had a solid result,
Claudio was feeling well at home in these conditions, but crashed on the steepest part of the course. "I was not able to make the turn after the steep bit, and lost control" according to a disappointed Claudio Caluori.
