HAGGISNT BRINGS ALPINE WCC TITLE AND HAS ONE HAND ON RIANC’S CROWN WITH A GRAND SLAM ON SILVERSTONE!
Haggisnt had a perfect race to bring Alpine a WCC medal and climbed on top in WDC heading onto the Season Finale… Rianc gave his best in Alfa Romeo but was just 0.1 short of Haggisnt’s pace at finish line… Naedangerdavid had his first podium in A1881 in McLaren…
Haggisnt began on pole under wet conditions and led the race
until the first SC with Naedanger behind in his McLaren. At the exit of first
SC, Naedanger did a mistake into T4 and Rianc started to chase his title rival.
The trio kept within 1 second of each other until the second SC to be triggered
by Leegoat. After the exit of last SC in L18, Rianc pulled away from
Naedangerdavid and began establishing constant pressure on Haggisnt. But Haggi
delivered a flawless drive after starting on pole to lead every lap and set the fastest to fulfill a
grand slam and to bring Alpine to finish line in front, only one tenths ahead
of Rianc…
Haggisnt: The race was
a pretty nervous one for me. I hadn’t done any wet practice and I hadn’t done a
wet race in a while, but on the other hand I knew that the Alpine has good low
speed and has tyre wear compared to Rians Alfa so the rain was a bit of a blessing,
especially after seeing Rians ridiculous TT time in the dry. Naedangerdavid was
also flying yesterday and it was a close race and very close qualifying between
the 3 of us. Only a couple points between me and Rian going into the last race,
and I’m hoping to finally get my first championship, may the best man win. 👑
Haggisnt and Rianc gave us another thrilling, hard but fair racing
as they head to season finale with Haggisnt only 3 points ahead… This win of
Haggisnt also brought him his second medal by claiming WCC title together with
Keon and Cajoco’s half-season contribution and made Alpine all-time most
successful team of A1881 with 5 WCC titles…
Naedanger deserved a seperate paragraph, finally being able to
drive a competitive car while wildcarding for Tbran. He set a fascinating quali
time together with Haggi and Rian and spiced up the battle in front until the
last stint. When the incredibble duo ahead started to disappear he took a safer
approach and brought Tbran his best result this season.
Dan the rainman showed glimpses of good old days in his home GP,
coming 4th in Aston. He was followed by Rothnz the GOAT in Haas, despite becoming
the victim of Rollie’s spin and even having a DT mid-race. Selecta in Williams also
was better than his dry performance, defending his position hard but fair on
last lap in Stowe against Rollie. He was followed by Burtay at P7 in Ferrari, having
one of the rare races to finish ahead of his teammate… Keon in Alpine
contributed the team by coming 8th when it mattered to reach his first medal in
A1881 by winning WCC… Tvoje benefited from Rollie’s greed-related spin and
finished P9 in his first race as full time in McLaren, also helped his team
climb above Ferrari before last race. Rollie messed it up at first and last
lap, after a risky attack on Selecta when the door was closed and ended up P10,
to weakan his chances of precious third place medal over Rothnz seriously...😭
Elgogeta finished P11 in Mercedes, showing steady driving again.
He was followed by Bhavish in Aston in his full time debut. Inginne was able to
finish his first online race at P13 under these difficult conditions and brought
Redbull reserve contribution. Sir Ibbo was safely P14 in his AT, followed by
Jonboi in the other Redbull. Cmrcnn was the last driver alive on track in Alphatauri.
Magnelman, Leegoat and Valward were all eggplanted. Altan had to
retire in pits in Lap 1 due to an emergency.
We are heading to Season 11 Finale on China next week, with a
fierce fight for the crown and P3 medal awaiting us!
