Getting the win was a great feel-
ing. I can't ask for much more.
"My fifth heat wasn't the best.
At that point, you want to be
spot-on with the setup and have
things working. That wasn't re
-
ally the case, but we made a few
changes for the LCQ and that
paid off.
"I am happy with how we
figured things out and how the
team is working. That's how we
got through the meeting."

ance at a final since he re-
turned to the series for 2026.
His 18-point haul saw him surge

onship.
The European champion said,
"I feel great because I knew I
needed the points for the stand

ings. I am fighting for the top
seven this year, so for me, it was
a very good night. Being in the
top five now is okay for me.
"I had a tough start to this
season, but I think I am back.
This day for me was great. It
was a beautiful day, and I hope it
will be the same next week."
