Drift fans, we're back! It's time for Round 6 and with it, Paweł Korpuliński leads the championship by 52 points heading into the penultimate Round of the 2026 season. Returning to Germany's City of Iron, the championship touches down for a three-day spectacle beneath the towering excavators of Ferropolis, once again joining forces with Iron Drift King for one of the wildest weekends on the calendar. After his statement second win of the season, and being crowned the King of Riga, Korpuliński arrives in the strongest position of his career, on a track he is notoriously strong at, ahead of his Polish counterpart Piotr Wiecek in second place in the standings. Ireland's James Deane sits third, with his neighbours and good friends Conor Shanahan and Jack Shanahan sitting fourth and fifth respectively. Ferropolis demands a different kind of commitment, with drivers battling under the lights in front of massive crowds in a setting that feels more like an arena than a racetrack. With only our 2026 Grand Finale at the PGE Narodowy in Warsaw left after this, every point at Ferropolis carries real championship weight. There is no room to hold back, and no run here commands anything less than 110%! Before the battles begin, the full grid must first face qualifying at one of the most unique venues in world drifting. Two runs to set the tone for the entire weekend, but one mistake can put championship hopes in jeopardy at the bitter end. Will Korpulinski's 2026 dominance remain? Will one of the chasing pack close the gap before our season finale? It's time to find out. This is the penultimate Round of the 2026 season. This is Germany. This is the City of Iron. This, is Ferropolis. ------------ Tomorrow, the battles go live on Red Bull TV. But before that, it is time to set the order for Round 6 with today’s high-stakes Qualifying session, live right here on YouTube.
