The first race of the day, race 7, was started at 11 in the morning and saw Finian Maynard finally winning. This time Maynard managed to fend off Antoine Albeau, who was trying hard to make pressure on him. Finian came first over the finish line. With this victory he could overtake Björn Dunkerbeck in the overall result. Dunkerbeck had an dissappoint day, by missing twice to advance to the Semis.
Race Nr. 8 was won by Antoine Albeau. Kevin Pritchard, who seems to find his form again came second and Finian Maynard third.

The race 7 was again business as usual for Valerie Ghibaudo by winning it easily. But race Nr. 8 saw a new face winning: Sarah Quita Offringa. She was leading the race from the start to the finish, although Ghibaudo was on her tail during the whole race. This was the first victory for Sarah in a PWA Slalom competition and put her now on the second place overall. > Video
