Dorian Boccolacci starts strong at Spa! The Martinet by Alméras driver won the first race of this Belgian weekend. With great control, he beat Marvin Klein (CLRT) and Bastian Buus (Allied Racing). The Dane gets his first podium in PCCF.

At the start Dorian Boccolacci (Martinet by Alméras) made a very good start and retained his first position. Marvin Klein (CLRT) is more delicate, he is even overtaken by Victor Blugeon. But the ABM driver cannot resist in the straight line which leads to the Combes bend and returns second position to the reigning champion. In the middle of the pack, Alessandro Ghiretti (Martinet by Alméras) starts strong and gains 5 positions, he is 13th. 

In front Dorian Boccolacci widens the gap on Marvin Klein. Evan Spenle (CLRT) passes Victor Blugeon to take 3rd place. Alessandro Ghiretti is already in the top 10. The Junior Porsche 2021 blocks Ugo Gazil (CLRT) and tries everything. He dives inside but shoots straight and loses time in the gravel trap, he falls back to 15th position. 

On the 4th lap of the race, Aaron Love (Pierre Martinet by Alméras) went sideways in the chicane at the end of the first sector. The Australian hits the wall and tries to get back to the stand. But on the start/finish straight, his right rear wheel comes off the rim and enters the box on 3 wheels. 

10 minutes from the end of the race, Victor Blugeon failed to brake, which allowed Bastian Buus (Allied Racing) to take 4th position. Alessandro Ghiretti's fight continues as the 2021 Junior Porsche climbs back to 11th position at the cost of a muscular attack at the source corner. 

In the battle for the podium, Bastian Buus (Allied Racing) puts pressure on Evan Spenle. The Dane passes and takes off to score the first podium of his PCCF career. On the last lap of the race, Arthur Mathieu shoots straight at turn 1 and passes through the gravel trap, he emerges in 10th position. 

Dorian Boccolacci is quietly heading towards victory. Marvin Klein and Bastian Buus complete the podium. Evan Spenle and Louis Perrot are in the top 5. Alessandro Ghiretti finishes 8th.

In Pro-Am, Jérôme Boullery topped the debates with a good 7th position overall. The Racing Technology driver is ahead of his teammate Sylvain Noël and Maxence Maurice (IMSA Performance). Sébastien Dussoliet once again won in Am. Another hat-trick for ABM as Sébastien Poisson and Stéphane Louard completed the podium.

Next meeting for the PCCF this Saturday from 9:15 a.m.
