LAST MOUNTAIN RACE The hill climb on the track from Châtel-St-Denis to Les Paccots on Sunday marks the conclusion of the 2018 Swiss Hill Climb Championship. In addition to the battle for the day's victory, two title decisions in the touring cars will ensure excitement. 1

PLACE 19 AT THE SACHSENRING Francesco Ruga was the second finalist in the "AutoScout24 Young Driver Challenge powered by SEAT". Like last year's winner Oliver Holdener, the driver from Ticino finished in midfield at the Sachsenring. 1

VICTORY IN SPITE OF A BRAKER Thomas Schmid came within a whisker of sinking his Toyota on the Gurnigel. However, the new junior mountain champion did not let the strong local hero Marcel Wälchli take his fourth victory. Now he also wants to become junior rally champion. 1

LECLERC TO FERRARI An interesting castling takes place in Formula 1. Charles Leclerc is moving to Scuderia Ferrari in 2019. He will replace Kimi Räikkönen, who is returning to the Sauber F1 team at the end of his career. 1

SECOND PLACE IN ENGLAND At the FIA European Finals in England, Jndia Erbacher took a brilliant second place in the premier class of Top Fuel Dragsters. At the same time, her father Urs Erbacher announced his retirement from drag racing. 1

TITLE TO MARCEL STEINER With a second place overall, Marcel Steiner secured the 2018 Hillclimb Championship title ahead of time. However, the home driver had no chance against Eric Berguerand, who was the first driver to achieve a sub-100-second time in his Lola-Cosworth at the Gurnigel. 1

FOURTH WIN OF THE SEASON Yannick Mettler and his German partner took two more victories in the GT4 class at rounds 5 and 6 of the VLN Nürburgring. They moved up to second place in the championship. Alexandre Imperatori claimed two places on the overall winner's podium. 1

NEW LOCATION DETERMINATION Zurich City Council will not approve another Formula E race with a different route until summer 2020 at the earliest. Bern could become the new venue as early as next year. 1

RECOGNIZED GOAL The South Tyrolean Christian Merli, known as the record holder at the Swiss European Championship race in the Jura, has been crowned European Mountain Champion for the first time in his career. The European Championship title decision in the touring car category was a farce. 1

TITLE DECISIONS The 49th Gurnigel National Hill Climb will take place next weekend with international participation. The penultimate round of the Swiss Hill Climb Championship is likely to see two titles decided. 1
