We all know that without the pop-off issues Magalhăes would likely be fighting for the podium, but not for the lead. Like in the previous seasons, Lukyanuk is on a class of his own and only tech issues or driving mistakes can stop him to get the title, which he deserves for a long time. Still, let’s hope Magalhăes and the others will be able to do better on the next events, putting more pressure on Luky and making ERC fight more interesting to follow.

Already quite interesting is the U27 fight, with the duel between Gago and Sesks. Gago, the most talented Portuguese young driver, hasn’t yet plans to compete the whole U27, but the amazing wins at Azores and Canarias may help his sponsors to give him a chance; fingers crossed! Sesks has been the ERC revelation and it’s almost unbelievable how fast he can be with so little experience; certainly there’s a bright future ahead of him.
