Race :: Round 33 - Norway Pulls Away

At the front, the Volcán recovers his composure and smoothly slides into the chicane at Lekbojen. Still, the Norwegian's Bugatti is battered and in terrible shape – will Sorolla-Ledaal even finish the race? Behind, Belgium tries to close the gap but cannot as the big yellow Duesenberg comes out of Storkurvan belching black smoke.

Vitez Rychly fumbles his gear lever and fishtails out of Höksböjen, closely followed by the German's Bugatti T51A, which skids out of the curve and passes the Italian Maserati. Orsi stands on the brakes to hold the car from a spin out leaving Höksböjen. It is now going to be a close race into and through Storkurvan.

In Fiskekroken, the Swiss and Scottish cars round the top of the curve and prepare for the race down the grand stand straight away. Meanwhile, back in the Barrböjen chicane, the French driver, Aristide La Fontaine, leads, yet the Swedish shark pulls around at the last moment to overtake for position. The Finn cruises out of the chicane smoothly. Portugul's Pedro Gomes neatly cuts through the narrow chicane, while behind, the John Milk of Britain begins to close the gap.
