Second day of qualifying at the FIM-E Euro Finals at Santa Pod Raceway saw the request two sessions completed with some moves in setting the elimination ladders for tomorrow’s all important championship decider.

Susanne Callin (Top Fuel), Jonny Lagg (Top Methanol), Andres Arnover (Pro Modified) and Jimmy Ålund (Pro Stock) claimed the number one qualifying positions at the European Finals at Santa Pod Raceway in England and will lead their respective categories into Sunday’s eliminations at the fourth and final round of the 2025 FIA European Drag Racing Championship. Callin and Lagg both impressed as they had problems on their first three qualifying runs to storm to the top of the ranking on their fourth and final run.

Sometimes FIM-E Drag Racing misses the spot, but today at Santa Pod Raceway certainly wasn’t one of those days. Stable conditions made for rapid action across all of the five categories at the season finale, with world class times leading in the two premier classes after only the first day of qualifying.

Jndia Erbacher is the provisional number one qualifier in Top Fuel with a great 3.892-second ET after the first day of qualifying for the European Finals, the fourth and final round of the FIA European Drag Racing Championship at Santa Pod Raceway in England.
