All of the sub-finals have been run in very difficult and rainy
conditions, lots of things have changed due to this. However just before the
final the weather cleared up and we could have a dry final. Not completely dry
because the track seemed dry, there were some very tricky area's where the car
just spon out on you, loosing precious time. Also the final was not 45 minutes
but 30 minutes due to the still changing weather conditions.
