The Final of the 2018 IFMAR 1/10 On-Road World Championships was really interesting! After a messy start which saw Top Qualifier Dario Balestri and Super Pole winner Robert Pietsch jump the start and end up with a stop and go each. The defending champion Dominic Greiner got confused on what was happening and also came into the pits.
This mess let the multiple Electric Onroad World Champion, Infinity’s Naoto Matsukura, get the first position and then, at the end of the one hour Final, won another World title.
