After this race they took the lead in the championship for the first time. This was followed by the first victory where Renato Basler and Boris Sljivic held of the Race Force Team in a rain battle. After the summerbreak the driver dou seemed even stronger and more motivated. The two drivers drove a very strong race with an inferior kart.
