The weather forecast told the worst. In Leipzig - only 100km away from Sebnitz a thunderstorm warning was released and the morning in Sebnitz was terrible: mist, fog, rain... The only hope was the wish that Sebnitz would be already at the back of the german wide depression.
Just in advance: the weather calmed down. Weather god Petrus must be a C/L pilot and sent the rain to other counties.
The day became quiet successful for the German Junior Team: Anja won with a bit of luck against Robert Libor (BEL) and is inside round 3 with one "L". Rene Birnstein achieved a respectable result as a junior speed pilot with 264.3km/h and is at rank no. 6 up to now.
And our acro pilot Richard Kornmeier had a wonderful flight and is a member of the junior final (best 3) with 2869 points.
Surprise of the day - the acting combat wold champion Stanislav Chornyy,
UKR, was eliminated in the second combat round. Johan Schwarz won in a funtastic heat with 5 : 4 cuts against the acting W/Champion and got a second "W" in his heat against César Picardo, ESP.
The other two combat pilots are also in round three: Lothar Hentschel won against Patricio Nadig, ARG and Juan José Garcia, ESP. Andreas Wallner did so against Antonello Cantatore, ITA
but lost again Martin Zvára, CZE.
Our
German - F2C teams achieved only midfield results, so did our speed- seniors, too.
In spite of the rain the time schedule worked well. Tomorrow, Thursday, is a spare day, only the combat will go on. The public feeling is very well and the weather can become only better!
Yours
Matthias
