In qualifying it was Romain Picard how took TQ honors only 0.7sec in front of Shepherd driver Richard Volta who had to do an additional pitstop for fuel. In the semi finals Richard was the fastest driver on the track leading from the start to the chequered flag taking the pole position for the main final while Romain dropped out in the second semi final as he crashed his car.
