The rain stopped, so it was a dry / wet track for the KZ2 drivers at the start of their last final. Charles Fiault (Sodi / Maxter) was at the top as might be expected, followed by Adam Maatougui a way back (Energy / TM), while Eric Goron (Intrepid / TM) was fighting against Francois Santoni (PCR / TM) for 3rd place. We were looking out for Christopher Benoit (Birel / TM), Pierre Ragues (Sodi / Maxter) and Maxime Roy (Tony Kart / TM), currently the sixth, seventh and eighth.
Nolan Mantione (Birel / TM) attacked Santoni for fourth place. Benoit fall to ninth, behind Lucile Cypriano (Tony Kart / TM). On lap 5, Fiault was more than 3 seconds from Maatougui who saw the pressure intensify behind him. Ragues overcame Mantione and Goron on lap 6. The Sodi driver advanced to third less than a second off Maatougui. Although faster, Ragues didn’t close up right away and there was open competition behind him. Finally, on lap 11, Roy and Ragues passed Maatougui who then fell into sixth position. Roy became very threatening to the second placed Ragues. Fiault won a race he dominated from start to finish, while Roy crossed the line in second position ahead of Ragues and Goron.
