Hajek wins Kristianstad KZ Final

Patrik Hajek (Kosmic / Vortex) made the best start of the KZ European Championship Final on the very wet Kristianstad track after a stormy shower. Marijn Kremers (Birel ART / TM) slid and dropped to 4th while Bas Lammers (Sodi / TM) was 2nd ahead of Paolo De Conto (CRG / TM). Hajek quickly had a comfortable lead against Lammers and De Conto, with Kremers relegated to the lead of the chasing pack with Luca Corberi (Tony Kart / Vortex) in his wake. An epic battle for 5th place was set up in mid-race, allowing Kremers to distance himself. While Simo Puhakka (Kosmic / Vortex) returned to the top five, Lammers significantly reduced his gap to the leader Hajek. But the Czech reacted to protect his 1st place. De Conto watched the manoeuvre 2 » away, not worried about his 3rd place, as the 4th, Kremers, was more than 15 » behind. Puhakka took advantage in extremis of the battle between Jorrit Pex (CRG / TM) and Luca Corberi to take 5th position. Hajek won 1 » ahead of Lammers, De Conto finished 3rd to celebrate his already-acquired European title and Kremers regretted his missed start as he finished 4th over 25 » from the lead.

Hajek took 2nd place in the championship ahead of Kremers, with Lammers 4th and Stan Pex 5th.
