Trnava F3J Eurotour Results

[Neil Stainton]

Can someone please point me to the results for the F3J Eurotour event at Trnava? Or to some discussion of the contest?

The main contest site http://www.trnavaf3j.sk/index_en.html doesn't yet include any up to date info.

Thanks in advance,

Neil.

simply they are strong :D
Marco is a very experienced guy, he's into thermal competitions since he was about 10 years old, and he's chasing great results since long time. He's one of the best pilots around, also he's great when choosing the right plane and ballast configuration to match wind and wheater. He continuosly checks everything, from lines to planes very carefully..he's a very precise guy! In fact we didn't broke any line. He's using pike perfects allround (light, normal, monster) with custom purple-yellow "Salvigni" paint. Marco has done many "man to man" rounds with the best pilots (Kolb, Adameck, Khout..) often matching them and sometime giving them a big 1000 (like the 3rd playoff round - he simply destroyed them! full 15mins against other's 8-9mins).
Verardi and Generali also are very strong, the first has very long time experience, he looks like a rc encyclopedia on two feets ;). Unfortunately he didn't got play offs by a bunch of points (13th, playoffs only for 1st to 12th) for one unlucky landing. He use pike perfects allround.
Generali's also very strong, he entered into playoffs, but maybe lacks a bit experience against the other two. Once into playoffs he hasn't been so regular like previous rounds. However, it has been his best results ever.He's using Sharons and Shadows by NAN.
About the junior team, Gallizia are all brothers, they have very good models (Perfects and italian made "Xynt") and despite youngness, they have outstanding experience when flying into thermals! :p . Never spoke with a 12 years old guy which seems the "most experienced" at your field? :D Well, you still have to know the bigger brothers! Their team competition has been compromised by a radio configuration mistake by Carlo (19th) otherwise they would be at 1st place as Team. Giovanni ended 4th by a little margin from 3rd..
Filippo has been into the first 3 places all the competition time, but due to a mistake into playoffs he lost places.
