The championship fight has been blown wide open, and now Drift Masters heads to Finland for Round 4 of the 2026 season. For the fourth year of Drift Masters in Finland, we arrive at a completely new venue as Ahvenisto Race Circuit in Hämeenlinna joins the calendar for the very first time. After a chaotic weekend in Ireland that changed the shape of the title fight completely, the second half of the season begins with one of the biggest unknowns of the year. Ahvenisto is fast, technical and built around elevation changes, creating a brand new challenge for the full grid. With no previous Drift Masters history on this layout, every driver arrives on equal footing. No past winners. No proven setup. No easy answers. Just one of Europe’s strongest drifting grids taking on a fresh track at a crucial point in the championship. Tomorrow, the battles go live on Red Bull TV. But before that, it is time to set the order for Round 4 with today’s high-stakes Qualifying session, live right here on YouTube.

Im sorry but pawel didnt deserve p2 at all the hand brake drag was huge
Korpulinski with poor angle getting that score is absurd!
In what world was that p1
I see judges are back on their Irish + Wiecek bullshit
How was Pieters or Pawels run #1, #2 and Deans run #6? This makes no sense...
Judging is absolute joke my god 😂😂
Was that Sanna marin interviewing the drivers?
Wiecek do not deserves that score at all
Discovering new good drivers.. those wildcards were gut
Judges clearly on the irishpoland side of this.. i like drifting but this takes fun of it.. for example lauri heinonen was out cause he went wide on the last clip evry other clip he hit and there other drivers went off the last clip aswell and qualified with equal runs. Cant also forget jarkko jylhäs secound go.. This all pointing should come from a machine wich sees the data but it must have better system then formula drift. I agree that is hard to do but i dont want to see this I might watch these less often cause this is compleatly rigged On the brighter side thanks for the equal rating for perkkiö, krisse and keski korpi Tomorrow i hope finland gets secound change to win with equal judging
No way Piotrs run was as good as anyone else in the top 5. But a rigged championship would do that wouldn't it. Loads of corrections and wobbles, way up the rumble strips coming down the hill. Crashing into the wall in Oz6, all things that should bleed points but those things got missed. Must be his Aura blinding the judges. Shame when that happens.......
The more I watch this championship, the more my eyes hurt because of the judging. Without even looking at the brackets, I'd already bet the Top 4 will be the Irish guys, Conor, Jack Falvey, and Deane. The scoring is something else... 0.2, 0.5, 0.7? Why stop there? Next time, let's score in thousandths just to make it look even more "precise." At this point, the judging is becoming more entertaining than the competition itself. Sorry, but this is peak cringe.
Judging is so inconsistent that you guys destroy good opportunity to this sport grow much larger.
Deanin toinen veto ylikulmassa 4 klipille ja jarrulla reilusti yli. Siitä vedosta 95p. Conor ajoi samalla tavalla ja 85p. Molemmilla kahden ajon jälkeen yli 94p. Ei voi muuta päätellä kuin, että oli pakko runnoa se 95p Deanille hinnalla millä hyvänsä. Muut yrittää noudattaa sääntöjä tarkasti ja siltikään ei pärjää esimerkkinä Krisse Aallon vedot. Muilla merkitsee tekniikka. Irkut saa pisteet pelkästä tyylistä. Deanin ja C Shanahanin 2. Vedon nelos klipin kohta ei ollut seurattavissa. Chase kuski olisi vallilla ajanut seinään tainennen sitä olis tullut kolari. Korpulinski ajoi toisen vetonsa siinä täydellisesti. Oli todellakin seurattavissa.
Good to see the cheating is alive and well
The style score really doesn’t mean anything as long as you drive the line this year.
Epic day at an epic new track! Finnish fans showed up in full support, beyond excited for tomorrow. Have to say James, Conor Falvey and Jack all threw down some nasty backies on the second to last outerzone. Deane had the most angle I think, incredible.
Falvey 1:30:15
Egan 1:01.50
To be honest Qual judging is weird .
