The European Championship 2007 held in Auxerre, France had ended earlier last week and the man who was on top of the podium is none other than the Top qualifier man himself, Robert Batlle. He is now officially the 2007 European Champion.

Driving his New Released Hobao Hyper 8.5 Pro Buggy and powered by the Axe Engine, Robert claimed the right to brag as the fastest racer in the 2007 Euro Championship. He claimed the Top Qualifier position led by 1 point only to the second position, the former European Champion, Yannick Aigoin. Sadly, the final left Yannick at the no.22. It was his brother, Jerome Aigoin made it to the no.7 in the final. Interestingly, the Robert Batlle TQ also meant that Yannick Aigoin record of going for the hat trick Euro Top qualifier did not come true. Furthermore, Robert deserved the pole position for his great run at the round 3 and 4. Of course with his display of run in the final, leaving two of the Ninja powered Mugen buggies behind, no one could denied his Hyper 8.5 Pro with the assistance of the powerful Axe engine, his father as the mentor and skillful mechanic Armiche, he took the checkered flag with proud. Congratulation, Robert!
