Holger Leprich, from Racetrack Operations tells us Rovinj is a pylon powerhouse... "Last year here was really tricky for us, we had 48 pylon hits all in all. It went good so we didn't have any big problems but it was a tough day for us"

Yoshi Muroya at the Race Airport: So far it's working good but we need to learn more and the wind is shifting to the south. I'm getting used to the new plane.

Those in cockpit camera are so intrusive, when things go wrong

And here is our excitement courtesy of Ivanoff! It's a double pylon hit, 6s in penalties and a 1:00.720 on the clock. C'est la vie!

How many pylon hits so far? I've lost count.

Hard to get level flight at # 10, when the pylon got hit on previous lap

Bad times for the young Canadian... it's an over G for McLeod and he is not happy... but the Race Tower has called it and it's a DNF

It's the last opportunity to experiment and tweak those lines

He gets 54.360 and that is about as close as it gets! It's his fastest time so far this week and could be a sign of things to come!

Team Breitling's Nigel Lamb gets out on the track – but the buzzer is off again and it's a nightmare out there! What happened to the defending World Champ? That's 9s in penalties!

That was a buzzer workout! Hopefully better for the next one.

Has he got his head on straight? It's looking better, although we hear the buzzer... and it's a pylon and incorrect level. 59.583 with 5s in penalties. Disaster.
