Hi Krasw,
apologies for my ignorance in this case, but could you briefly guide me to a link to that Kawa interview/comment?
Thanks and best

I believe this passage is meant (Sebastian's comment on the second race):
"Odskoczyłem do przodu i wyrównały się wysokosci, ale to niestety nie wystarczyło. 15 lat rozwoju profili aerodynamicznych okazało się zbyt dużym skokiem, by równać się z Ventusami 3.Do tego te fatalne deformacje skrzydła które szlifowałem tyle dni, ale całkowicie zlkwidować się ich nie dało. Obaj mnie przegonili."
which in free translaton means:
I sprang forward, and the altitudes were now equal, but unfortunately that was not sufficient. The 15 years of the development of the aerodynamic profiles proved to be too big a leap in order to compare with the Venti3s. Additionally, those fatal deformations in the wing which I tried to polish out over so many days, but could not be removed completely. They both outran me."
Today however we saw that this was not true.
