C2: First victory for Victor Martins

Starting from pole position, Victor martins (R-Ace GP) had a less good start than Lorenzo Colombo (JD Motorsport) who took the lead from the first corner. But the Frenchman takes charge again and takes back his due at 4e turn.

Martins notably benefited during the race from the attacks of his teammate Max Fewtrell on the Italian, allowing him to create a little breathing space and a comfortable lead at the front of the race.

At the checkered flag, Victor Martins wins his first Formula race Renault 2.0 Eurocup ahead of Lorenzo Colombo and Max Fewtrell. The Renault Sport Academy is rather well represented since Christian Lundgaard (MP Motorsport) brings the number of yellow cars in the top 3 to 4.

Richard Verschoor (Josef Kaufmann) ends a positive weekend in 5e position ahead of the championship leader, his teammate Yifei Ye. Alex Peroni (MP Motorsport) finishes the race in 7e place and ahead of the pilot Red Bull Neil Verhagen (Tech 1). Oscar piastri (Arden) and Frank Bird (Tech 1) complete the top 10. Charles Miles (R-Ace GP) and Arthur Rougier (Fortec) follow each other in 13e and 14e place
