At half past three, the lights went out for a 12-lap race. Fraga had a great start, quickly moving to the front, with De Vries also in a good position. Marcel Brenner, who started from pole, crashed in the first lap and couldn’t continue the race. At the front, Salac took the lead and began to pull away, but Kevin Orgis didn’t let that happen and stayed right behind Salac. Together, they managed to break away from the rest of the field, and throughout the entire race, they battled for the victory. However, in the penultimate lap, things went wrong for the German Kevin Orgis. He lost control of the bike and was thrown off. He was transported to the medical center.
