Martin splits Xray’s on the grid
Yokomo’s Lee Martin will split the Xray’s at the front of the 4WD A-Main grid at Arena33. The former champion went into the final round of qualifying battling with Xray’s Martin Wollanka to be the one to start behind already confirmed Top Qualifier Bruno Coelho. While Coelho would complete a clean sweep of the four qualifiers, Martin would claim another P2 finish but importantly it was to be a faster time than that of Wollanka’s best P2 in last night’s Q2 giving the Brit the tie breaker to secure second on the grid. With Wollanka demoted to third, a P3 from Martin Bayer in the final round will see the former race winner line-up fourth. The star of the 2WD action, Joona Haatanen would mark the first A-Main appearance of the new Associated B64 by qualifying 5th with team-mate Neil Cragg making his 4WD A-Main debut from 8th on the grid.
