Consolation 1 Catch Up: 263 leads away. 138 fires the 7X car (driven by Speaky today) into the turn 1 tyres. 7X returns the favour but ends up spinning with the air filter housing igniting. 55 is caught up and spins. Next up 138 takes 295 out to the fence on the exit of turn 2. Louis ends up rolling. Caution. With rain falling the restart sees cars spinning and sliding around the circuit. A masterclass in wet track racing by 138 sees Dave take the win with every car approached being used as a brake and being given a hit into the corner 👍

World Final second start: 1 heads this start and gains a small gap through turn 4. A challenge from 16 into turn 1 sees the 1 car bounce off the fence. He keeps the lead but the right rear tyre is now rubbing on the nerf rail. Hits going in aplenty throughout the field especially from the Netherland drivers. A caution for a stranded H248. 515 has now moved ahead of 16. 1, a lap down 525, 515 and 16 head the restart. 259 scatters the cars ahead into turn 3. At the halfway stage 515 has shortened the gap. With the tyre rub having eased the 1 car has to negotiate the backmarkers as the laps wind down. 2 to go and Frankie is ever closer. 1 to go and it's game on. As they charge down the back straight for the last time 515 lines it up. He takes turn 3 across the infield kerb with great speed to pile-drive the 1 car into the fence. A lap down 446 in front of 1 helps to lessen the hit. Both 515 and 1 bounce off the fence in a shower of sparks with Frankie half spinning. Tom guns it to make it over the line to become a 5 time World Champ 👍 -

The 484 and 178 bumpers go flying in as the pack enters turn 3 coming to the green. 523 takes the challenge to 226 and the pair engage in a great battle over the next few laps.

Welcome to Aldershot folks. Semi-Final One 183 leads away. 3 takes it to 183 into the first corner with 560 also coming through. 183 fights back as 213 starts to close in. 47, 903 and 844 have retired. An enthralling multi-lap battle follows between 213 and 560 with some hard hits traded. 183 has moved clear and just has to deal with back-marking traffic. 560 has eked out a small gap until 3 to go when 213 closes in once again. 542 retires. As 183 takes the win 213 tries for a last bender on 560 into turn 3 but to no avail and just keeps it out of the fence. -
