I wasn’t sure if I was fit enough to battle for the podium as I have been ill for over 3 weeks. During the first practice, I found out that this track suited me perfect, and with the run being under 2 minutes I was hoping to bring home a good run. During my race run, I was on the edge but had a perfect run, which resulted in a win by 0,7 seconds. Just smiles from there, it's crazy that I won every round of the series this year.” - Johannes Fischbach

 He won by less than a second. Is it just me or did it look like he popped out early on the starting count?
