Adam Lacko had to wait until Sunday to please his home crowd with a victory at Autodrom Most, while Shane Brereton, making his only his second FIA European Truck Racing Championship this season, exceeded expectation to take a popular win in semi-reversed final race of the meeting.

Race 3
Adam Lacko won race three held on his home soil during Round Six of the FIA European Truck Racing Championship, taking his tenth race win of the season.
The Czech driver, urged on by a partisan crowd, extended his championship lead in his Buggyra International Racing System Freightliner as he headed home reigning champion Jochen Hahn (Team Hahn Racing Iveco) and Antonio Albacete (Truck Sport Lutz Bernau MAN).
Lacko started from pole position and hung on to the advantage at the tight sequence of corners at the end of the pits straight. Hahn slotted in behind him with Albacete grabbing third place. Hahn pushed as he hard as could but Lacko was always able to manage the gap.
As the leaders edged away, Albacete came under attack from Steffi Halm (Reinert Racing MAN) and Norbert Kiss (Team Tankpool24 Racing Mercedes-Benz). Eventually, the Spaniard secured third spot.
Running fourth, Halm came under pressure from Kiss, which further enabled Albacete to pull clear, although the top two were long gone up the road. Kiss, in turn, was well clear of Sascha Lenz (SL Trucksport MAN), who wriggled past another local man Frankie Vojtisek (Czech Truck Racing Team MAN) in the closing stages of the race to grab sixth spot.
Vojtisek was on target for his best result of the season, but he came under late-race pressure from compatriot David Vršecký (Buggyra International Racing System Freightliner) who was coping with flapping rear bodywork after lap one skirmishes. The two started the last lap together, with Vojtisek keeping Vršecký at bay. However, Frankie received a 10-second penalty for overspeeding, which dropped him to 10th place.

Race 4
Shane Brereton claimed honours after a dominant drive in race four. Starting from pole position, the British driver controlled the pace as monster battle raged behind him for second place between eight trucks. It was David Vršecký who came home second from Steffi Halm after a race-long fight.
Pole-sitter Brereton led away and benefitted from a rowdy first lap as there was drama behind him. Vršecký and Sascha Lenz ran side-by-side through the first sequence of corners, with the place trading several times amidst contact. When the dust settled, after Lenz had been forced wide and dropped down the pack while Vršecký held second spot from Steffi Halm and Norbert Kiss. At the end of the opening tour, Brereton had checked-out to the tune of four seconds!
Halm hit the back of Vršecký on lap three but the Czech ace held a huge slide and kept the place, as Kiss waited for his turn to challenge for third against a frustrated Halm who was being held up by the defensive Vršecký. All of this fighting delayed the pack and allowed Brereton to get away, but the line of rigs behind was joined by Antonio Albacete, Jochen Hahn, Adam Lacko, the recovering Lenz and Gerd Körber (Team Shwabentruck Iveco), up from 16th on the grid to ninth.
Brereton maintained a gap of just under five seconds at the halfway stage of the race, with Halm still frustrated by the wide Freightliner of Vršecký, the gap to the leader widening at the end of lap seven as Brereton headed to a maiden FIA European Truck Racing Championship win, as well as sewing up the Promoter’s Cup. “That was the race of my life,” concluded the British driver.
