Team driver Robin D`Hondt has won the German Championship 2008/09 at the one-event decision at Hildesheim. In an exciting 40 minutes finale the 20 years old Belgian took an early lead with his P81 which he quickly extended. After 169 laps he brought the impressive victory home with a three lap advantage over former champion Robert Pietsch. Well supported by his father in the pits, Robin left other favourites like Salven, Mack, Schaefer, Hanauer, Hammerl, Dankel and others behind. The cornerstones of his success were the excellent set-up of his flawlessly running P81 and his strong performance during a rain affected qualification when he took second spot close behind Pietsch. His team fellows Christian Wurst and Uwe Baldes had no lucky weekend and finished on 22nd and 30th position respectively.
