The championship fight is tighter than ever, and now Drift Masters heads to Riga for Round 5 of the 2026 season. For the tenth year of Drift Masters in Latvia, the championship returns to the legendary Biķernieki Circuit, one of the fastest, most unforgiving and most iconic stops on the calendar. After another dramatic weekend in Finland, just 50 points separate the top five drivers in the standings as the season enters its decisive final stretch. Riga demands total commitment, with huge speed, concrete walls and almost no margin for error from the moment drivers leave the start line. Unlike the unknown challenge of Ahvenisto, this is a venue with history. Past winners. Proven specialists. Championship-defining moments. But with the title fight this close, previous success guarantees nothing. Before the battles begin, the full grid must first face qualifying at one of the most demanding tracks in European drifting. One run can change the entire weekend. One mistake can end it before it truly begins. This is Riga, baby. Tomorrow, the battles go live on Red Bull TV. But before that, it is time to set the order for Round 5 with today’s high-stakes Qualifying session, live right here on YouTube.

Ban air horns!!
I hope they replace inside clip 3 with the air horn guy tomorrow 🤞
Please ban air horns for competition. Very distracting, take away the sounds of the cars, and at points makes it hard to even hear the commentators.
Kindly grab the air horn and delete it with a sledge hammer. Seriously how are you letting that happen, it’s messing up your broadcast for hours.
Can you make sure to turn the car volume up in top 32. Can barely hear them over announcers
Stop the air horn!!!!
Fuck that guy with the airhorn. I don’t mind it here and there but just laying on it all day is just such a nuisance. Ban them. Ban him
Get rid of the air horns
13mins in and im not even watching anymore. That air horn is fucking awful. Ban them
Ban that airhorn ruining the whole live stream
Soo many ghost points for the higher drivers!!. Mckeever missed almost every zone! Wtf
Please change that music you're using on replays.
We get it, you own a airhorn congrats.
AIR HORN IS DRIVING ME INSANE
nice to see ian at least trying to pronounce Juha's name correctly
Ok the guy/girl who fcking blasting the air horn every second is fcking annoying. I didn’t hear it for the first half of qualifying, but when the second half started he/she just started blasting it all the time for no reason and just want to annoy people. Maybe if he/she blast it after the run or after the the score pop up is completely fine to hype up the moment, but blasting it every second is not it. That person is really lacking attention in his life😂 (I keep typing he/she cause i forgot of who’s run was it when it got replayed, it show the person holding the black air horn😂)
Duanes 2nd run was not a 87! The judging is cooked.
That air horn is so annoying
85 point for Nik-Nak 1st run is a joke, a joke, but commentators are 11/10, fun, knows M50 and objective.
I stopped watching this Livestream because of the airhorns...
