Víctor Peláez wins Spanish 200mm Champs Rd2
The second round of the Spanish 200mm National Championship was held in Gijón, with the weather forecast expecting rain for all the three days. This meant that all drivers had to adapt both their cars and their driving skills to all kind of situations, foreseeing that all qualifiers and all finals will be completely different one to another. Friday was useless, with the track completely wet there was no point on risking the car in free practice. Without being able to test one single minute, qualifiers started and as it was predicted they weren’t going to be easy at all. It was all about which tires worked and at what time. With the track being in a somewhat in-between state, nor flooded, nor dry, the window to choose between different tires was wide open and to make it even more interesting short moments of sun and showers took turn.

Jonnhy Pastor took the runner-up sport with Luis Cayetano and Raul Casado following in third and fourth place.
