In the premier class of 1/8th on-road Jernej Vuga tookthe TQ in front of Nejc Mihelic and Michael Salven. Salven then took a time-out before the start allowing Mihelic and Vuga to run off. Vuga was able to hold a lead of a few seconds in front of Mihelic, but Mihelic managed to slowly catch on him. After 20 minutes Vuga ran into engines problems allowing Mihelic to take control of the race and to take the win in front of Salven and Vuga, who completed the podium.
