De Conto victorious again

The first final of the day was for KZ1 & KZ2 which race together. Paolo De Conto (Energy / TM) and Rick Dreezen (Tony Kart / Vortex) rushed away from the front row on a dry track under a bright sun. Dreezen was doing everything to prevent De Conto getting away, but in vain. Gary Catt (Tony Kart / Vortex) was in 3rd position ahead of Jorrit Pex (CRG / Maxter) and Patrik Hajek (Tony Kart / Vortex). Marco Ardigo (Tony Kart / Vortex) was sixth ahead of Beitske Visser (Intrepid / TM) who tried to sneak inside at the start.

Ardigo passed Hajek to take 5th and was close to Pex. De Conto set the pace in the lead, he set the fastest time and was more than a second ahead of Dreezen on lap 6. Pex lost ground when Ardigo captured fourth. The latter then passed with Catt and Hajek in his wake.

Armand Convers (Kosmic / Vortex) was now in 6th position ahead of Marco Zanchetta (CKR / TM) the first KZ2, Visser and Wernersson. Ardigo, in 3rd, was faster than his teammate Dreezen. There was even a little contact between the two drivers. Jesper Wernersson (Tony Kart / Vortex) retired on lap 14. Ardigo took possession of 2nd, 3 seconds behind the leader, De Conto. The last brawl was between Catt, Zanchetta, and Convers. Visser returned to 6th behind Catt and Zanchetta.

It was an indisputable victory for the Energy / TM of Paolo De Conto front of the 3 Tony Kart / Vortexes of Ardigo, Dreezen and Hajek, then Visser in the fifth who outpaced Catt on the last lap. 7th was Zanchetta, leader in KZ2. Tony Lavanant (PCR / TM) took 9th finally in the closing laps of the race.
