The excellent performance of the Netherlands is not a surprise. After the second place in Barcelona and place 13 in Budapest they showed that a daily training and an intern drivers-preliminary round at RET pay out. Luck and strong nerves at the right moment are important as well. After the first run on place three behind Graz and Ostrava the Oranges drives in the top step with 4550 points.

Remarkable also, the young team from Vienna. After the first run on place eight they push their self with a perfect second run on the runner-up spot.
