Favorite since his victories in the heats, Jake Dennis (Topkart) made the best start of the TaG Junior final, followed by Kiel Spaulding (Topkart). Pierre Gasly (Sodi) immediately went on the attack and first took 3rd position and then second after the 3rd lap. Always followed closely by Spaulding, Gasly gradually gained on the leader Dennis who already had time to pull out a small gap. The Sodi driver attempted his first attack, then managed to take the lead at halfway.
Unfortunately, on lap 12 Gasly ran into karts which had crashed across the track which was a disaster: resulting in time lost and tires fouled while others could avoid the danger and carry on. Dennis, again in the lead, was now challenged by Marcus Brodie (Vemme) who recovered from the back of the field. Brodie took the lead, Gasly took third from from Spaulding, but he took the place back on the last lap.
The (too) fast Brodie was disqualified for non-compliance and Dennis gained 1st place, Spaulding second. Gasly rose to the 3rd step of the podium in front of Austin Self (Birel) and Yago Cesario (Italkart), and set the fastest lap.
Le (trop) rapide Brodie est déclaré non conforme et Dennis obtient la 1ère place, Spaulding la seconde. Gasly monte donc sur la 3ème marche du podium devant Austin Self (Birel) et Yago Cesario (Italkart), tout en étant l’auteur du meilleur tour en course.
