The first OK-Junior Super Heat saw Cristian Costoya (Parolin/TM) lined up on the front row of the grid next to Filippo Sala (LN/TM), followed by David Cosma Cristofor (KR/IAME) and Lewis Francis (KR/IAME).
Sala stayed ahead of Cosma Cristofor at the start and Christopher Al-Feghali (KR/IAME) came through from 5th to 3rd while Costoya stayed at the front of the field.
Cosma Cristofor repassed for 3rd and put pressure on Sala before taking 2nd on lap 4. Thibaut Ramaekers (KR/IAME) was fast and moving through the front group.
Cosma Cristofor was on Costoya’s bumper at mid-race and attacked a lap later to take the lead, with Sala also looking for an opportunity. Costoya attacked and Sala and Ramaekers also passed Cosma Cristofor, then Sala passed for P1.
The battle for 2nd was continuous, with contact at times, allowing Sala to extend his gap. On the last lap Iacopo Martinese made several audacious moves but was just defeated by Cosma Cristofor and Ramaekers.
The race finished with Sala 1st, Costoya 2nd, and Ramaekers 3rd followed by Cosma Cristofor, Martinese and Francis. El-Feghali was disappointed to drop back to 19th.
Provisional results pending publication of the final rankings.
