Last weekend the last two races of the 4-race Finnish National Championship series were held in Vantaa. Ari Heinonen (JQ THECar/ THE Engine) was able to secure the Championship win ahead of Teemu Leino (XRay/LRP) and Jarno Siltanen (Mugen/Ninja), by finishing 2nd in the 3rd race, and winning the final race on Sunday ahead of Teemu Leino. This means that JQ Products have won the championship 2 years in a row now, as I (JQ) won the championship last year with my pre-production car. As for me, I did not attend the race due to being in hospital with appendicitis. It is nice to see that even with me missing THETeam can get the job done!
