Cabezas and 720 quickest in EC timed practice
Serpent Driver Development team member Oscar Cabezas was in brilliant form for timed practice on Day 4 of the European 1:10 200mm Championship, the 20-year-old Spaniard setting the fastest run of the day at the Madrid track.
Using his Mega MF powered 720, Cabezas posted his time of 18 laps in 5:10.563 in the second of the days two timed runs to top the time sheets ahead of Adrien Bertin and Finland’s Teemu Leino.
Current European B Champion Alessio Mazzeo was the next fastest Serpent in 6th position, the young Italian also breaking 18 laps in his second timed practice. Promising Austrian driver Daniel Tomaschko made it three Serpents in the Top 10 with 9th fastest time.
Multiple European Champion Michael Salven may have ended the day only 17th on the time sheets but the German did post the fastest lap with a very quick time of 17.000. Heading for a similar time to Cabezas, Salven ran out of fuel at 4:53 after running his engine slightly to rich in his final timed run but Serpent’s Head of Engineering is confident there will be no problem making the 5 minutes come the qualifying heats.

Friday has 4 qualifiers on schedule and the first one is over. There was fairly cold in the morning but the track conditions were perfect so plenty of the drivers improved their lap times significantly. The XRAY team did very well with Teemu Leino setting the best result and currently leading the qualifiers. Martin Hudy and Jilles Groskamp did a wrong tire choice for the track condition in the morning which was noticable in the first few seconds when the front of their cars had very low traction and as such they had to drive very carefully and of course slowly as the car was slower in the chicanes. But despite this disadvantage Martin had a very nice run without any mistake and finished at 4th position with Jilles at 7th position.
The surprise of the first qualifiers were however plenty of other XRAY drivers who set their result within the first top 20. Nice surprise of the day is definitely Mr. Juraj Hudy who despite being the senior driver set out of the 150 cars at a very nice 31st position missing just 0.5 sec to break into the 18 laps.
Another very nice result was achieved by the only 13 years old XRAY driver from Austria – Manuel Singer who was able to break into the 18 laps also and finished at a very nice 23th position.
With the increasing temperatures team will now change slightly the set-up and for sure those who run with harder tires will change for softer tires. As the temperature is around the noon very high the conditions will be worse and maybe again in the evening the track conditions will get similar to the morning. The very big chances however will be for everybody tomorrow morning when the last 5th qualifier will take place.
