KF-Junior Final: Novalak wins ahead of Sargeant

Noah Watt (FA Kart / Vortex) started ahead of Clement Novalak (Tony Kart / Vortex) in the KF-Junior final, but a kart spun on the line and hit the barriers, while a another went off at the entrance of the first corner. The slow procedure was triggered. It must be said that the track was now completely soaked. The race resumed on the fifth lap and Novalak immediately went on the attack to take the lead before Watt was penalized 3” on the following lap, leaving 2nd place on the screen to Logan Sargeant (FA Kart / Vortex). Lorenzo Colombo (Tony Kart / LKE) was 3rd in front of Ulysses De Pauw (BirelART / Parilla) and David Vidales (Energy / TM). Jean-Baptiste Simmenauer (Tony Kart / Vortex) had a thunderous start to the race in 12th position ahead of Tom Leuillet (BirelART / Parilla). Perdana Minang (Tony Kart / Vortex) gave up and Davide Lombardo (Exprit / Vortex) was the last on the track.

Novalak and Sargeant didn’t let go of the top two places, Watt remained 3rd on the track and in 4th place behind De Pauw. Milen Ponomarenko (Tony Kart / LKE) was in 5th position ahead of Max Hesse (Croc Promotion / TM), then Simmenauer and Leuillet who were watching out for Colombo. Sargeant attacked Novalak on the 14th of 16 laps. He responded and Sargeant had to go on to the grass. Novalak crossed the finish line of this crazy race as the winner ahead of Watt (ranked 4th), De Pauw 2nd and Sargeant 3rd. Ponomarenko finished 5th, Hesse 6th, Leuillet 7th, Colombo 8th, Lucas Légeret (BirelART / Parilla) 9th and Kush Maini (Tony Kart / Vortex) 10th after his penalty in the prefinal.
