"In 4 of 5 rounds, Niklas had the lead. "At the end of the fourth round, I slightly strayed with the right tire from the track. Only that way, the British was able to pass me." Beeing a bit contrite, he adds: "It was a 4000$ mistake." Cause as a champion, the British got 7000$. "In the past, more prize-money was paid out. At the WCG 2006 in Italy, the 1st place went away with 15000$." Apparently, the economic crisis did also pass those events without a trace."
