The 2019 HB Racing European Race Days were held this past weekend at the ARCF42 track near Lyon, France. The event saw the attendance of world class drivers such as David Ronnefalk and Cole Ogden that not only competed but also gave help to racers. Other celebrities included Philippe Neidhart and Didier Boulmier as well as Nano and Jean-Marc Betticher.
The track layout was amazing but very challenging even for the international drivers while the weather forecast was quite gloomy but the rain only fell on Sunday for a few minutes. In the Nitro buggy class, the race format was three 15-minute finals. The finals were a 3-horse battle between David, Cole and Hampus Berg. Cole won the opening final as David made a big mistake in the chicane and had to retire with a few minutes to go. After his DNF in A1, David was in control of things and he was able to win the last two finals and secured the overall victory. Cole came in 2nd and Hampus finished in 3rd. Over in the E-Buggy class it was Cole Ogden with the overall TQ, however after the four A-main events it was David with his second win this weekend from Cole 2nd and Hampus 3rd.
