SK's flying on the long ridge run south was amazing on Friday - so tight to the contours the whole way compared to the 3 V3 pilots and able to take fractionally shorter routes round the side ridges He simply outflew them there.

However Sebastian Nagel won the day because he was only 6m under
the minimum finish height but Sebastian Kawa was 8m below...there's
a 5m buffer so SN was penalised 2s and SK 6s.

Only a 3 point gap between the two going into the last day!!!
