Price Powers His Way To Victory In Finland!
from F1Boat.com
LAHTI,Finland – Saturday, June 13, 2009 – Defending World Champion Jay Price snapped out of his two race slump and powered his way to a 7.81 second victory at the fourth round of the 2009 U.I.M. F1 H2O World Championship for power boating in front of a massive crowd in downtown Lahti, for the 5th Grand Prix of Finland.
The warm and sunny afternoon was hi-lited by tremendous two boat battle between the two Team Abu Dhabi boats driven by pole sitting Ahmad Al Hameli who held first for the first 21 minutes of the scheduled 30 minute event, before the Qatar Team driver made a remarkable pass down in turn number five and never was challenged to take his first race of the season and the fourth of his career 26 starts.
“I was really please with this new boat that I raced for the very first time this afternoon,” said Jay. “As a matter of fact it was the first time I had ever driven the boat, started second and waited for a move to slide past Ahmad with less than 10 minutes left. This is a well earned victory for the whole Qatar Team and we will use this momentum to carry us to the next race in St. Petersburg, Russia on the 8th of August.”
