"Close to a podium but the pace is there to have another crack next weekend at the first round of the WSK Super Master Series," Armstrong said afterwards.
The Final was won by Karol Basz from Poland with Armstrong's Danish teammate Nicklas Nielsen second and Martijn Van Leeuwen from the Netherlands third.
