LRP-AE-Challenge Italy finale – Report

The final round of the Italian LRP-AE-Challenge took place last weekend on the iconic track of Vedano, in the surroundings of Monza. In the 13.5T Stock class Capricorn’s Federico Barbieri took a convincing TQ by winning the opening qualifier in front of Andrea Valerio’s Xray and the second one ahead of the Xray duo of Beggio and Puleo. The finals were pretty entertaining, with a couple of contacts and three different winners for the three legs. A1 was won by Ruggero Zanusso (Team Associated) after the TQ driver made a mistake and Puleo took the lead, only to lose it after a contact with Zanusso’s car.

In A2 a coming together between Barbieri and Beggio allowed Puleo to go on and win, but in A3 a tone-to-tone win by Barbieri would allow the Capricorn driver to take the overall for the meeting thanks to a better tie-breaker. Elsewhere in the Formula class, Paolo Bottignol took the win with his Capricorn of the Xray of Barbera and the Fenix of Brocca.
