Stefan Hanauer wins German 1/8th Nats

The German 1/8th scale on road Nationals were run last weekend in Ettlingen, and it was Kyosho racer Stefan Hanauer that took the title. With so many International drivers in attendance such as Michael Salven, Oliver Mack, Robert Pietsch and Andreas Hammerl, the level was very high and the competition tough. Qualifying saw Shepherd racer, and current German Champion, Robert Pietsch take pole position ahead of Mugen driver Oliver Mack, with Philip Eberle and Stefan Hanauer completing the top 4. In the final Hanauer was able to come out on top following some changes at the top and despite some late race pressure from pole man Pietsch, Hanauer could hold onto to his lead to win. Pietsch ended the race 2 seconds behind the Kyosho racer with Shepherd boss Patrick Schäfer claiming 3rd, just 7 seconds up on 4th placed finisher Andreas Hammerl.
