……On Friday the perfect tire choice was Pro-line’s Bow Tie M3. Due to the rain, the track had been completely covered with carpet, making the perfect condition for the Bow-Tie. Tire performed excellently, up to the point where Carlos Duraes was fastest, even running on much worst conditions than the favourite Spanish drivers. After Carlos’s result, many drivers switched to Bow-Tie, finding that their lap times improved dramatically.
On Saturday the track went from completely flooded to more or less dry. On this variable conditions, Bow-Tie was no longer the tire. On the other hand many drivers started to use Caliber and Revolver. Being the Revolver the one that adapted best to the surface of the track, which combined soil and concrete. What made the difference was the durability of the Revolver tire. While other brands had difficulties to keep a constant pace during the qualifiers, Revolver lasted for enough time to cover the complete final. Despite not achieving TQ, 6 out of first 16 drivers in the semi finals used Pro-Line.
For the finals on Sunday, once again, the choice was between Caliber and Revolver. In the end, Carlos Duraes finished 2nd with Pro-Line tires and Adrian Perez 3rd, making it two drivers on the podium.
Ramón Nuño (our driver) had some minimal problems but it was enough to keep him out of the semi finals. A shame, since on Friday he was 6th fastest and looked as if he could have achieved a good result.
