Sasse takes OK-Junior pole in Sweden

The 63 drivers in the European Junior Championship took to the Kristianstad track in very good weather, just after the few KZs. At 3’30 » from the end of the first session, only four drivers were in action. Hugo Sasse (CRG / Parilla) was the most consistent at the top of the standings and confirmed the fastest time – 52 »371 – ahead of Jonny Edgar (Exprit / TM) and Zak O’Sullivan (FA Kart / Vortex). Dexter Patterson (Exprit / TM) was 4th in front of Harry Thompson (FA Kart / Vortex). 7th position went to Jules Mettetal (Kosmic / Parilla), 15th to Loris Cabirou (Sodi / TM) and 17th to Gillian Henrion (Tony Kart / Vortex), while Mattia Michelotto (Zanardi / Parilla) was last by more than seven tenths.

Suleiman Zanfari (Tony Kart / Vortex) was in the lead with Caesar Kristiansson (Tony Kart / Vortex) and Fabian Almqvist (Tony Kart / Vortex) two minutes from the end of Session 2, soon after their entry on the track. Jack Doohan (FA Kart / Vortex), then Chris Lulham (Tony Kart / Parilla) and Andrea Rosso (Tony Kart / Vortex) temporarily took the lead, but Doohan finished with 52″567 – the best time – against Rosso and Lulham, Elie Goldstein (Kosmic / Parilla) finished 4th and Hadrien David (Zanardi / Parilla) 5th.

Roman Stanek (Kosmic / Vortex), Alexandros Kattoulas (Exprit / TM) and Ilya Morozov (Tony Kart / Vortex) were among the fastest in the third session, and Wladislav Lomko (Kosmic / Parilla) joined the lead group. Stanek was the fastest with 52 »670, followed by Kattoulas and Lomko, Morozov took 4th place ahead of Viktor Andersson (Tony Kart / Vortex). But this last session was slower than the other two.

So Sasse took pole position in OK-Junior ahead of Edgar and O’Sullivan, then Doohan and Patterson in the top five.
