Third round of the Voomquest World Powerboat Championship
Another indescribable experience awaits the powerboat pilots from Friday 20th to Sunday 22nd September! The six teams; El Diablo, Interceptor Remax, Cutting Edge, Freccia Blu, Marine Diffusion and Atomic & Grey, will compete in the third round of The VOOMQUEST Enemed UIM V2 World Powerboat Championship, which will be held in Marfa, and promises more action-filled drama on Maltese sea.
El Diablo made waves in the previous round thanks to their first-place position in both Race 1 and 3, and third-place position in Race 2, ranking Clive Butler and Sammy Grima in first position of the overall World Powerboat Championship with 92 points, and we will see them returning to GP 3 defending their prestigious title.
GP2 did not only bring edge-ofthe-seat action but saw two Maltese teams, El Diablo and Freccia Blu, rank in the top two places of the overall championship, and showcases how determined the teams are in being titled; V2 World Powerboat Champions. Current ranking are as follows;
1 Maltese El Diablo 88 92 2 Maltese Freccia Blu 11 91 3 Corsica Marine Diffus. 55 85 4 Belgian Atomic &Grey 31 68 5 Maltese Cutting Edge 77 61 6 Maltese Intercep.Remax 19 48
