Fast Track with a lot of grip except in the morning. Layout is really fast and drivers need to keep speed in the corner. |

For the first time the EFRA organise a European Championship for B drivers.
We met a lot of young drivers, but also some very well known and fast drivers.
The Track of Roeselare has a very nice and smooth layout and a lot of grip. With the sun booked by Franky and Willy, the key men in this race, the race will be terrific !
Until Thursday, it is only practice and we will add a lot of pictures during the last day of the practice.
Most of the RB users choosed the RB SpeedLine Matrix with the RB 2604 short manifold combination : the top speed is higher and the fuel time longer.
We have also some of RB Concept V12 Rody : the drivers of the V12 enjoy the smooother acceleration which improve drivability, and they are reaching almost 6 minutes...
On Thusrday we had the controlled practice with marshalling and Technical inspection. Late in the afternoon, the opening Caremony closed the day with all the drivers and team manager on the track for the Franky's speech. Tomorow is the first day of the qualification, the real race start tomorow. |

We had 3 round of qualification on this Friday, but the fastest was the last round, with cooler temperature and reasonable grip. We still have one round in Saturday morning. Until now, the RB Team is doing well and the yound Daan Jacob is 4th with his V-One RRR/ RB Concept V12 combination. Daan switch to the long manifold and reduce the gap between first gear and second gear to get a smoother shifting.
The Young Alessio Mazzeo is incredibly fast and he's TQ with a confortable 2 seconds in front of German driver Eric Dankel. There's a lot of fast drivers very closed to the top of the classification including Marc Kreisig who couldn't compete in the last round due to a servo failure.
Last round was the fastest on Saturday morning : a lot of drivers improved their performances. Unfortunatly, Daan Jacob broke a tyres early in the heat and went down to the 5th place.
The young Alessio Mazzeo improve his best performance for two seconds, and he's now 6 second ahead. |

Again a sunny day in Belgium : the track was perfect with a lot of grip.... and some traction roll !
During the main, Aleesio took the lead and was almost two laps ahead when he changed the right tyres. He come back on the track just behind the leader and overtake him very quickly. No body had any chance as Alessio did not make any mistake during the whole event.

Unfortunatly, we had no RB in the main : 5 of RB drivers were in the semi, but they were so unlucky with very unusual failure (transmission, battery pack, tank...) This is the race ! During the whole week, we worked with any RB users to get the best performance on this track (by using the right pipe/gear ratio combination). During the finals, these users were super happy with their engine packag, but racing is not only engine!
Next event is in Madrid for the Euro A, and RB will be present in Spain to support RB users.
