On September 10-12 the penultimate race of Rotax Max Challenge CZ, Moravian Cup and and Slovakian Championship took place at Slovakian Ring. Sunny and very hot weather provided challenging racing conditions not only for the drivers but also for the mechanics. However, everyone’s efforts were rewarded with beautiful results.

Immediately after the start he took the lead and after 15 laps he passed the finish line with a gap of 4 seconds.
