The cunning Blandino wins the Mini Final

Devin Walz (Parolin/Iame) took the lead from the start of the Mini Final of the WSK Final Cup in Lonato. Mariano Lopez (Parolin/Iame) was 2nd followed by Kacper Rajpold (Parolin/Iame), Cristian Blandino (CRG/TM) and Riven Esteves (KR/Iame) who started in pole position. Blandino moved into the lead on lap 3, with William Calleja (Parolin/Iame) back in 4th ahead of Gioele Girardello (Parolin/TM). It didn’t take long for Calleja to move up to 2nd behind the leader, passing Walz in particular. An incident forced the race directors to activate the slow procedure. In 14th place, Alessandro Truchot (Parolin/Iame) had made up nine places and Zack Zhu (EKS/TM) 8 places to 19th. The race restarted on the seventh lap. On lap 9, Walz took over P2 from Lopez. Blandino won by a tenth from Walz, Mark Pilipenko (Parolin/Iame) took 3 place from Lopez and Ilie Tristan Crisan (Tony Kart/Vortex). Andrea Manni (Parolin/Iame) finished 8th, Zhu 15th and Truchot 26th after a spoiler penalty.
