\nNow in its second season, the Challenger Cup is new element of the Red Bull Air Race World Championship that gives the next generation of pilots the chance to develop their low-altitude flying skills under racing conditions. This weekend\u2019s Challenger Cup field was rounded out by Daniel Ryfa of Sweden (fifth) and two pilots new to the competition, Florian Berger of Germany (fourth) and Francis

\nWith all six of the talented up-and-comers eager to start the season on a high note, a beaming Bolton was clearly thrilled with his win. \u201cI\u2019m starting my second year in the Challenger Cup, so all that learning and experience is resulting in what happened for me today,\u201d he said. \u201cMy last flight was in Fort Worth, Dallas last year and I finished second, which I thought was great. But this? This is really exciting.\u201d<\/p>\n
