Lindgren looked to run towards the semifinals but finished the basic competition with a scorching zero from the outer track.

The Swedish star driver, who earlier in the evening won a heat, was then seen passed from the stands and knocked out.

- The runways were insidious and it was difficult tonight.

We gave everything we had but it was not enough.

We will have to come back next weekend in Tetorow (Germany), Fredrik continues.

Several of the top drivers had problems in Prague.

The World Cup leader, the favorite Bartosz Zmarzlik, did make it to the semifinals.

There, the Pole weighed lightly, but still tops the table one point ahead of compatriot Maciej Janowski.

"Magic" as he is called, could not conjure away the fact that he ran on the tape in the final and missed the chance to go up in the World Cup lead.

The evening belonged to Martin Vaculik.

The Slovak already showed in the basic competition that he would have a long and good evening in Prague.

Once in the final, he was an unthreatening winner ahead of Britain's Tai Woffinden and Jason Doyle, Australia.

-I am so happy!

We did it!

exclaimed Vaculik and had a hug party with his team after the full hit.
