ETRC: Kiss and Hahn victorious in Poznań

Sport news Norbert Kiss, current leader in the standings, kicked off his weekend in Poland on high, with his fourth pole position of the season. In race one, the Hungarian never looked in doubt and took a commanding, lights-to-flag victory, with Jochen Hahn and Sascha Lenz rounding out the podium. In the second, semi-reversed grid race Lukas Hahn took full advantage of his first starting position, and despite immense pressure from fellow front-row starter Steffi Halm, went on to take his second career victory. Halm finished runner-up, with the lowest rung of the podium going to Jamie Anderson. The closing stages of the race saw a close, bumper-to-bumper battle between the top five runners, with Jochen Hahn finishing just outside of the podium, and Race 1 winner Kiss in fifth. The Hungarian was doing his best to climb up the order, but having started eighth, he only managed to gain three places. Third overall in the standings after the Slovakia Ring round Antonio Albacete experienced a difficult Saturday afternoon in Poznań, having finished fifth in Race 1 and then getting caught out in the opening corner incident in Race 2 and being classified 15 th and last. With two out of four races of Round 3 out of the way, Kiss has extended his lead in the overall standings by further four points and currently sits stop atop the classification with 122 points to his name. Second-placed Hahn has 103 points, while Albacete is still third, but having only scored 8 points in Race 1, he is now 35 points down on the leader.     Goodyear FIA European Truck Racing Championship ETRC Truck All fia sport SEASON 2023 Sport Circuit 1SportGoodyear FIA European Truck Racing ChampionshipCircuitAll fia sportSEASON 2023ETRCTruck00 Saturday, June 24, 2023 - 5:36pm Saturday, June 24, 2023 - 5:36pm
