KZ1: Ardigo takes over

Kozlinski (PCR / TM) got away first at the lights in the  first Final in KZ1, followed closely by Rick Dreezen (Tony Kart / Vortex). Jonathan Thonon (CRG / Maxter) lost a bit of time and Marco Ardigo (Tony Kart / Vortex) quickly closed on the leaders. Dreezen was able to attack Kozlinski on the 2nd lap, followed by his teammate Ardigo. Thonon was fourth ahead of Bas Lammers (Praga / TM), Mirko Torsellini (CRG / Maxter), Simo Puhakka (PCR / TM), Jérémy Iglesias (Intrepid / TM) and Yannick De Brabander (Formula K / TM).

Thonon grabbed 3rd place on lap 3. He was sandwiched between Dreezen, the leader, and Ardigo, the fastest on the track. On the following lap, Ardigo took the lead. At the halfway point, Paolo De Conto (Birel / BMB) was in 9th place after starting 19th with Jorrit Pex (CRG / TM) on his heels. Koko had to yield to Torsellini and Lammers.

Then Thonon upped the tempo by taking second position in favor at a fast corner and went hunting the leader. But Ardigo had the skill to defend his position until the end, replying with a fastest lap. Dreezen was third, Torsellini 4th closely followed by Lammers, 6th was Kozlinski.
