C1: Sargeant dominates his subject at the Nürburgring

Starting from pole position, Logan sargeant (R-Ace GP) resisted the attacks of Max Fewtrell behind him. The pilot Renault had a lot to do trying to keep championship leaders Christian Lundgaard (MP Motorsport) and Yifei Ye (Josef Kaufmann) behind him.

In a game of musical chairs for the podium, it was Lundgaard who won over Fewtrell while Ye fell back to 6the rank, leaving the American a lead of 2 seconds in the first round.

Halfway through the race, however, Fewtrell appeared threatening on Lundgaard and after several laps, managed to pass him and start chasing his teammate. However, the Englishman will not be able to threaten the rookie for victory.

Logan Sargeant won for the second time this season ahead of Fewtrell and Lundgaard. Victor martins (R-Ace GP) follows its colleagues from the Renault Sport Academy in 4e place and in front of Alexander Smolyar.

Ye has to settle for a 6e place which now sees him lagging behind the championship leader by 15 points. Charles Miles (R-Ace GP) finishes 7e before Thomas neubauer (Tech 1) which signs its best result and scores its first points of the season.

Thomas Maxwell (JD Motorsport) and Alex Peroni (MP Motorsport) complete the top 10 including Arthur Rougier (Fortec) fails at the gates at 11e instead.
