You can definitely see how much that win against Odi was to Simon. Since he joined the Feal Suspension team and has one of the greatest chasers as well as a very experienced teacher/ boss has really helped Simon grow as a driver. He's definitely a contender for a championship next year

JD always does a great job complimenting the drone pilots. You guys need to add the save from the pilot from the Denofa cone sail hit. Pilot did a spectacular save! Also did a sick flip to scan of Teurck after the battle with Aasbo. Great job by the entire drone team!

2:53:45 "we always like to play devils advocate" ... unless its Matt Field, then we dont give any explanation for why he won, we just pretend that the battle wasnt super close and think people are dumb enough to not pay attention to our judges giving Field wins when its close enough to be an OMT.

It would be hard to believe at the start of the season that Simen Olsen would be ahead of Aasbo at this point in championship. Big respect to Olsen. He's been tearing it up. Makes you wonder how some of these other drivers would do with more serious machinery underneath them.

6 Rounds in and RTR has 5 wins. Just about every round there's a RTR driver on the podium and before the season is done James Dean will get his win. The Ford RTR team is absolutely dominating this season and showing how competitive they are. Also the Feal Suspension team is killing it this year as well. Simon Olsen is a completely different driver since he has joined Feal Suspension

@anthonyantoine9232 10 ай бұрын

Thorn didn't light off until he was already in OZ1, where they should be lighting off at least at and more likely before IC1. He overcooked his entry and was decelerating through an area where he absolutely should not have been because he would have been all 4 tires off if he didn't continue decelerating, causing the contact and incomplete. It was a good call.

Please don't take this as a bad critic, I hope you guys take a time to think about it, and come back even better next year, peace.
