Antonello Parisi from Italy has won the 2010 Spring Open 1:8 scale final, Matt Kellet from Australia winner of the 1:10 scale Spring Open final claimed second place, and Christian Holmström from Sweden holds third place on the podium. Already around the 10th lap Parisi had created a 2 second gap between himself and the rest which he would steadily expand to almost 5 seconds around the 41st lap. After the 41st lap, the tables were turning! Kellett was strongly closing in on Parisi up till the very last lap! Meanwhile Brunke and Mingotti were struggling tightly over fourth and fifth position, and in the 60th lap also Mingotti mixed in this fierce battle. Eventually, Parisi was the first to cross the finish line after 85 brilliant laps, one second later Kellett followed, Holmström entered third, Brunke and Mingotti came in respectively fourth and fifth with only 0,4 second difference, Pignotti came in sixth followed by Pannwitz.
