Micallef and Susanne Callin are the only drivers who raced all the rounds of this championship. Micallef is still leading with 227 points, followed by Callin with 192 points, and now, Erbacher with 168 points.

Maltese Tuner Simon Giordmaina, a key Italian Carbonera Racing team member in the FIM Europe Drag Racing Championship, faced a series of unfortunate events. They showed remarkable resilience and determination despite the setback of breaking two engines. Their inspiring story includes the need to borrow an engine from a competitor to finish the qualifying round, a testament to their unwavering spirit in adversity.
