Americans fastest in Budapest traning, 17-08-07.


Americans Mike Mangold and Kirby Chambliss recorded the fastest times on Friday on the first day of free training ahead of the seventh leg of the Red Bull Air Race World Series which takes place in Budapest on Monday.

Mangold, who trails championship leader Paul Bonhomme of Britain by just one point, completed the slalom course just metres above the Danube River in the heart of the Hungarian capital in a time of one minute 15.31 seconds. Chambliss was just 0.39 seconds behind on the course that starts and finishes under Budapest’s landmark Chain Bridge. Last year’s winner Steve Jones of Britain was a distant third, 2.21 seconds behind Mangold.
