Pro-Line and Byron Fuels Win Euros 2015
Elliot Boots, armed with Pro-Line Fugitive tyres and powered by Byron Gen2 Race Fuel was on blistering form to claim the 35th EFRA European Rallycross Championship. Respect.
Winner of the Euro warm up, Elliott Boots showed his consistency in qualifying never dropping out of the top 10 in a single run managing a single TQ and three 2nd places – whilst P2 man Robert Batlle TQ’d Q3 & Q5, Boots’ 3rd result proved better and thus gave him the overall top spot.
The final was a tense affair with David Ronnefalk, Elliott Boots, Alex Zanchettin and Davide Ongaro, all in the mix. Halfway through Boots made a big error, followed by another one – advantage Ronnefalk, a 3rd Euro title looked a possibility, until 15 secs where a costly mistake reduced the gap back down, after that, Boots was able to keep a faster pace, Pro-Line’s Fugitive tyres coming into their own – the X2 compound his team chose hanging on remarkably better than his competitors. Boots would pass Ronnefalk and start sailing away into the distance to a very deserved first European Championship title.

With five out of the top seven finalists using Pro-Line, the new Fugitive tyre proved itself ideal for the terrain superior to all other brands. Byron Fuels once again proved it has the minerals to play with the big boys.
Congratulations to champion Elliot from all the team at CML Distribution.
