The thrills were nonstop when the second half of the Red Bull Air Race World Championship season took off at Ascot Racecourse in the United Kingdom on Sunday, as pylons and track records fell in a desperate drive to stop the momentum of overall leader Matthias Dolderer of Germany. In the Final 4, it was Matt Hall of Australia seizing the win with a time of 1 minute, 3.426 seconds, while Dolderer was second at 1:04.887. Hannes Arch of Austria took third. Britain’s knowledgeable racing fans were on their feet at the legendary horse racing track from the opening Round of 14, as pilot after pilot pushed to the limit – including the United Kingdom’s own Nigel Lamb in his final home race. Dolderer set a stunning new track record of 1:03.266 in the Round of 8, but he flew more conservatively as the last to go in the Final 4, after Arch and the United States’ Michael Goulian both received “DNF” (“Did Not Finish”) penalties for slight rule infractions. Hall, meanwhile, showed no sign of the back injury that had limited his results earlier in the season, delivering a flawless performance as the first to go in that critical final round. As a result, Hall – who finished second overall last season – kept his World Championship podium hopes alive, bounding from seventh to third in the overall standings with 33.75 points, while Dolderer’s result enabled him to extend his lead. The German’s tally stands at 53.25 points to the 35 points of his nearest rival, the 2008 World Champion Arch. Now, the stop coming up on Sept. 3-4 – Dolderer’s home race at the Lausitzring – promises to be a free-for-all. “I feel brilliant. I wasn’t sure how I was going to be received as the Aussie winning on British soil, but the standing ovation from tens of thousands of people as I got out of the raceplane – these are life memories,” Hall said. “We’re in a hard position. I can get enough points to beat Matthias, but it depends on what he does. If win the next three races, there’s another 45 points we put on and we’ll see what happens.” For more information and all the latest news, visit www.redbullairrace.com.
