Erstmal die englische Version : Finals day at the MS Eskil Club circuit in Eskilstuna did not disappoint as we were treated to a day of great racing.<\/p>\n

The Semi finals built the intrigue as all the major players showed well, but a cleaner run allowed Spain\u2019s Robert Battle to claim the pole. David Ronnefalk won the other semi to line up in second with Elliott Boots 3rd<\/sup>.<\/p>\n

New for this season was the \u201cLast Chance!!!\u201d race which saw the 12 Semi-finalists who had not qualified into the final take part in a 15 minute winner-takes-all contest for the final place on the main final grid \u2013 after a tense and exceptionally entertaining race it was 3 time former champion Renaud Savoya who won and too that final spot.<\/p>\n

Into the Main final and it was Ronnefalk who took an early lead capitalising on a bobble by poleman Battle however a couple of mistakes by the Swede dropped him back leaving Davide Ongaro to swop the lead with Battle before Elliott Boots mounted a concerted charge on the Spaniard. Boot\u2019s challenge was stymied by flame outs during 2 of his first 3 pit stops and as he, Ronnefalk and Ongaro got involved in a race long battle for the podium it allowed Robert to slowly pull away and eventually establish a lead of almost 25 seconds. Ongaro eventually claimed 2nd<\/sup>\u00a0by stint of making the fewest mistakes leaving a frustrated Ronnefalk in third. But the title belonged to Robert and he claimed his 3rd<\/sup>European title to add to those he won in 2007 and 2011.<\/p>\n
