On Sunday 14th of April the Malta Drifting Association organized the first round of the National Drifting Championship at a new venue in Ta’ Qali. This was possible thanks to the collaboration of several different authorities and especially that of the Malta Fairs and Convention Centre. This new venue offered a bigger challenge to the organisers but at the same a more challenging track to the participants.
8 cars competed in two different classes, that for professionally built cars and that for street legal cars. Andrea Fabri the Champion of the 2018 Championship won this first round on his Enemed Supra. Fabri was followed by Maris Grixti that returned to compete following one year of absence and Christian Borg on his Yato Silvia that also returned to the sport after 2 years.
