Roy aquaplaned before the hairpin and couldn’t avoid the tyre barriers, it was over for him. Benoit was imperious in front with a big lead on Goron and Maatougui, Francois Santoni (PCR / TM) advanced to fourth, but Fiault came back strongly and Briton James Glenister (Formula K / TM) set the fastest time with a minute. Fiault took 3rd place in mid-race then second. He took the lead on the ninth lap, when suddenly Benoit went off onto the grass and was waterlogged despite his 4.8” lead.

Fiault finally won the race, which ended with four drivers on the track! Goron took second place after a fight with Santoni, third, fourth was Maatougui who was 44” behind. Benoit showed up as 5th, by 3 laps.
