It's an advantage given to those who have won the qualifiers; they simply start with 1 or 2 wins in the finals and need to win fewer races to clinch the European Championship.

So, since Germany and Great Britain have two ghost wins they are almost sure to qualify to final as three wins are needed, right? Our guys chance seems low then.

Yes, they start with a big advantage. In theory, any of the four can advance. In practice, those ghost win deficits are hard to overcome.

Yes, the men's quota is likely to be decided in the final and the women's probably in the semi-final. Poland has a good chance of gaining the women's quota though.

The semi-finals and finals are available on YouTube from 10am GMT I believe.
