2WD Qualifying Results!

Qualifying is now complete in Austria. Who's on pole, and who's made the A Final?
Lee Martin confirmed his results from yesterday by TQ'ing Round 4 of Qualifying and securing pole position. In the final round, Lee made a few small mistakes which allowed David Ronnefalk (car pictured) to take the win. However, David carries a penalty after being late to marshall yesterday. He will therefore lose his best score and so Lee Martin will officially be scored with 5 TQ runs.
Despite losing his time, Ronnefalk has three second place results from yesterday, which is enough to lock him into second place on the starting grid. The Swedish youngster, who normally specialises in 1/8th Buggy racing, said his car has been working very well and he has just been experimenting with tire choices.

He also said he isn't too worried about the penalty, just getting into the first half of the A Final gives anyone a chance to win.
Behind David, third place on the A Final will be Hupo Honigl. The Austrian driver was quickest in practice but third on the qualifying results.

Jorn Neumann lines up fourth after his difficult start to qualifying.
