The champion is still here! A few months after his title, Marvin Klein has not lost his driving skills. The driver of the No. 99 mastered his subject to win ahead of Alessandro Ghiretti (Martinet by Alméras) and Dorian Boccolacci (Martinet by Alméras).

At the start, Marvin Klein (CLRT) remains in control of the race ahead of Alessandro Ghiretti (Martinet by Alméras). On the second row, Dorian Boccolacci (Martinet by Alméras) misses his start and loses a place to Evan Spenle (CLRT). If the start is rather calm at the front, the battle rages in the middle of the pack. Bastian Buus (Allied Racing), who started 9th, put very strong pressure on Louis Perrot (TFT Racing) to gain 6th place. A fight that ends badly since the Dane sends the Frenchman into the wall. The two find themselves at the back of the pack.

Just before halfway, Evan Spenle (CLRT) received a 5-second penalty for stealing the start, which helped Dorian Boccolacci (Martinet by Alméras) who provisionally moved up to 3rd position. A few minutes later, it was around Ugo Gazil (CLRT) to receive the same punishment for a bad position on the starting grid.

6 minutes from the end of the race, Dorian Boccolacci (Martinet by Alméras) went on the offensive on Evan Spenle (CLRT) and climbed onto the podium. The positions will be unchanged until the checkered flag, notably because of a spin by Patrick Charlaix. The TFT Racing driver remains stuck in the gravel trap but the safety car remains in the pits. Following the penalties, rookie Alexander Tauscher ranks 4th after a diligent race.

In Pro-Am, Jérôme Boullery (Racing Technology) was never worried and logically won the category ranking. He is ahead of Christophe Stone (Pierre Martinet by Alméras) who had to battle in the peloton and Sylvain Noël (Racing Technology). In the Ams, Sébastien Dussoliet (ABM) got off to a good start to win the first race of the season. Sébastien Poisson (ABM) and Stéphane Louard (ABM) complete the podium.
