  Official Driver of the Weekend: Jackie Weiss
   
  Jackie Weiss was beaten by Spanish Pedro two times. Nevertheless, Jackie is the "Driver of the Weekend" of the first race weekend. Two very strong races with a lot of fighting-motivation and two fastest laps, brought a lot of action for the visitors. 
  This weekend, Pedro Mas Manseras could manage a double-win, but with a dramatic catch up, Jackie who lives in Switzerland, showed her aspiration for more than second place.
   
  Second race for the Mallorca Cup - Sunday 1/28/07
  Pedro Mas Manseras also wins the Sunday-race. The race-finish looked like a review of the Saturday-race. Pedro had to resist against the pressure of Jackie again in the last laps. Nevertheless, Jackie Weiss finished second again.
  With a lead of less than one tenth, Pedro saves the Pole-Position, qualifiying in front of Jackie Weiss. The second row is built of Joe Schmitz, from Luxembourg, and Lucian Toth who was in action again. All drivers drove into the first difficult corner. Coming out of the first lap, the position of the leading drivers were still the same. Then, it was Lucian Toth who used an open door from Joe Schmitz, when he took over the third position at the hair-pin. As new third, Lucian had to resist the attacks in the following laps. The leading duo knew to use it. Six laps into the race, the order was Pedro Mas Manseras and Jackie Weiss, with an advance of a couple of seconds. The Rumanian, Lucian Toth follows as third, then Joe Schmitz, who got under pressure from young Florian Schwarzenbilder. One lap later, Joe couldn’t hold his position. He spun in the chicane, and Florian Schwarzenbilder took over the fourth position. In the same lap, Jackie Weiss spun, when she tried to
 overtake leader Pedro Mas Manseras. She stoped just in front of the wall, and she could continue the race in third position.
   
  The order: Pedro Mas Manseras, Lucian Toth just before Jackie Weiss and Florian Schwarzenbilder. 
  They came to a delicate situation three laps before the finish, at the fastest point of the track. Going high-speed on the straightaway the Formula Junior of Lucian Toth, and Jackie Weiss collided. Lucian's Formula Junior went up and he spun off the track. With a damaged rear, Lucian took third place to the finish, just before the 14-year old Florian Schwarzenbilder who finished fourth. Jackie Weiss was able to catch the leader Pedro, in the last two laps. Nevertheless, local hero Pedro Mas Manseras won the race just before Jackie, who offers viewers a big race again.
