Red Bull Air Race 2017 - Lausitzring

2017 will see the Red Bull Air Race World Championship return to the Lausitzring after a brilliant round last year. In 2016 when the pilots touched down in the 3.2km (2 mile) tri-oval racetrack, formerly known as Lausitzring, it was the pivotal sixth race of the season. This year it will represent the penultimate race!

Sweden's Daniel Ryfa is the next of the 6 pilots to fly... 2 down, 4 to go

by Race Reporter 9/17/2017 11:05:54 AM

Comment ()
Ryfa is currently in 3rd overall and is tied on 24 points with Czepiela. He's already secured his place for Indianapolis but a win here would bring him to 2 in 2017 to match Berger's record
