Driver comments after Gelleråsen

The Swedish Touring Car Championship race at Gelleråsen was an eventful one. Richard Göransson won the race ahead of Robin Rudholm and Janne “Flash” Nilsson. Four races have been completed in the series and seven still remains – next up is the brand new city race in Gothenburg. Here follow quotes from the Gelleråsen-race.

Richard Göransson – BMW 320si
“Fantastic, what a great weekend! My second win this year which certainly is one of my best ever! I really had to fight for it and it felt even better with my team mate on the podium.”

Robin Rudholm – BMW 320si
“I almost went in to the barriers in the pit entry due to oil. I got important points again today and I am happy with that, even if I could have won the race today.”

Janne “Flash” Nilsson – BMW 320si
“I was in the gravel in the first corner, after that it was maximum attack! Really great to see Flash Engineering dominating this STCC-weekend.”

Robert Dahlgren – Volvo C30
“It is a though track for front wheel driven cars. I got problems on the last lap with the throttle and unfortunately lost one position to Schie.”

Thed Björk – Honda Accord
“It was all about being smart. Since I could not pass that many, I had to defend my position and try to take as many points as possible. Now it is all about getting back and finding the right setup also for very hot summer days.”
