The weather for the whole of the meeting was very mixed with sessions of rain, wind and sunshine but it was, fortunately, dry for most of the racing. The plan had been to run 2 heats on the Saturday but, due to the excessive rain this had to be changed to fly the second round on the Sunday. The team Race Jury consisted of Dave Rudd (GBR), Jochain Shiffler (GER) and Daniel Dextre (BEL)

In the first round times were relatively slow with Titov/Yugov (RUS) leading the field on a 3:27.2 and the USA father-son team of Ascher/Ascher in second spot on 3:28.4. None of the British pairs were able to break the 3:30 barrier and the event was wide open for change in the next round.

Flying began at 10:30 on the Sunday morning with those present having enjoyed a good fondue banquet on the Saturday night (and an unlimited flow of beer and wine until around midnight). Sunday started wet but improved early on before the racing began and the second round saw many improvements on the times recorded the previous day. Surugue/Surugue (FRA) put in an excellent 3:20.8 to take the lead and Ascher/Ascher improved to 3:22.0 (one of their best ever times). Langworth/Campbell (GBR) put in a 3:25.8 and Dessaucy/Dessaucy (BEL) a 3:26.5 but all the other teams again failed to break the 3:30 mark.

In the third round Maret/Perret (FRA) put in a good 3:21.1 to claim their spot in the Semis and Langworth/Campbell improved with a 3:24.8. Due to a couple of teams not flying, Fitzgerald/Thomason (GBR) and Heaton/Broadhead (GBR) had a two up at the end of the round – the former team capitalising with a 3:27.2 but Derek and John just missing out on the semis by 1/5 sec.

The semis were to see just five teams break the 3:30 barrier but with the top three all going inside 3:22. The French pair of Ougen/Surugue led with a 3:20.9 after the first round with Langworth/Campbell in second spot on 3:23.7. In the second round Surugue/Surugue put in a 3:21.2 and Titov/Yugov a 3:21.6. Maret/Perret also put in a 3:23.3 but this was only good enough for 4^th position. No reflies meant that Heaton/Broadhead did not get the chance they had been hoping for and it was therefore two French teams and one Russian in the final.

The final started off ok with all three models having similar airspeed but Surugue/Surugue on a 33 lap range with the others opting for 40 laps per tank. At each pitstop Titov landed his model to Yugov and Ougen followed him in one lap later forcing Victor Yugov to hesitate on his flicking and thus delaying the Russian team each time. The race carried on in this way until lap 136 when the French pair caught the Russian lines as they landed and were thus disqualified for failing to overfly by the regulation 0.5 metres. (a coincidence that the same thing happened to Surugue/Surugue at Piennes the previous week) The Russian pair were unable to continue which left Surugue/Surugue to fly to a finish with a decent (but not impressive) time of 7:02.1
