Tough for him, but what's the stress about? Doesn't he have 2 more A4's standing in his workshop which could be used in case of emergency?

Yeah, I would have guessed he at least had 1 available spare too.

He has sold one of his A4's, two left.

I guess he has taken spare parts from the other one, but haven't got any details on that.

No news on Frid, Brandt or the Russians yet.

That explains why he couldn't just jump into that spare car and start driving.

I´d love to take the other 2 Audi´s right off his hands, but it seems that E-mail communication is not one of KMS´ strong sides..

Yes, very! Considering he did start last at 18th.

Quite good race today, very hard to pass on this track. Björk took out Dahlgren for the win, that will be interesting to see what will happend.

Oh, and guess how far our Russian friend Lvov got?

Really? If the stewards continue with their current standards (along with whoever is responsible for deploying the Saftey Car) they should be thrown out and replaced by me.

I'm really hoping someone has good footage from an alternate angel on that incident. From what I saw on TV I just couldn't determine if it was Björk that put his nose where it shouldn't be or Dahlgren that slamed the door shut too harshly after realizing he made a bad exit from previous corner.

Anybody know about some nice fan fottage perhaps?

That must have been some kind of record. Take your self out before before the race even starts?!? Another incident I would love to see moving images of. In any case, he was a massive 4.3s behind the other Audi in quali... gosh.

To be fair he was only 4.0 sec behind the other Audi in the saturdays testing session. By far the slowest guy out there, sadly. Hope he has a lot of money and will make a new attempt, always fun to have more cars on the track.

I've only seen pictures of the accident, it looked like a classic cold-rear-tyres misstake, oversteering straight into the barrier on the warmup lap. STCC hasnt been kind to the Russian drivers so far...

According to the accident with Dahlgren and Björk u can see on the Onboard video from Dahlgren that Thed isnt in the camera who is in Dahlgrens rear, so in my opinion Dahlgren is slamming the door to hard on thed...

I think it's Björk's fault. He was far to quick into the corner, He had trouble stopping the car before the gravel trap himself, so that shows he had to much speed.

From the camera view on the inside of the track you can see Björk hit Dahlgren behind the front door, so he wasn't really alongside either.

Dahlgren is angry and Björk understands nothing:
