After winning two of four heats on Saturday, Alex Powell will start Sunday’s Pre-Final B from pole position.

Racing in extremely cold conditions, Alex showed his pace by leading every heat on Saturday. A bit too much caution in Heats 2 and 4 resulted in a loss of the lead on the penultimate lap, finishing 3rd and 4th in those heats.

“He made one mistake defending too much in a corner” reported his father John Powell.

Tomorrow’s conclusion of the WSK Champions Cup will have a warm-up before the two Pre-Finals and Final.
