The heat was exhausting and the sun never let up. After 4 qualifying rounds it was Costas Agrafiotis that had pole position drving a Mugen, while truggy winner Zurfluh from Switzerland with a Losi made a big effort in the last round to grab second place with Azulay from Israel in third, just 2 seconds away, also with a Mugen. The start of the A-main saw the Swiss driver managed to get past to second place and after the first 3 pit stops passed first place as Agrafiotis didn’t have long run times and was refuelling earlier. Agrafiotis managed to regain the lead later and pulled a gap of about 6 seconds. Some 10 minutes before the end Zurfluh first hit some traffic and then his motor came loose. He managed to repair it but lost any chance of victory or even a podium placing. Agrafiotis took the win ahead of Azulay in 2nd and Iaponas in 3rd.
