  • As was the case during the PCCF's last visit to Valencia, the rain made its appearance at the start.

The Salon de Provence native decided not to return on the first lap, unlike his runner-up, Marcus Amand (CLRT). Schumacher).
  • Côme Ledogar's team made the right decision by asking the championship leader to switch to slicks. The Finn complied and, after a magnificent stop, emerged from the back of the pack. When his rivals stopped, Marcus Amand moved up to first place in the standings, twenty seconds ahead of Mathys Jaubert. The final twenty minutes were managed perfectly by the winner of Race 2 at Misano, who won again. A victory that allowed him to retain the reins of the general classification.
  • Mathys Jaubert settled for second place. Starting last, Marvin Klein and ABM opted for the same strategy as CLRT Schumacher. The Var driver found himself in a fight for the podium. The two-time series champion defeated Karen Gaillard (CLRT Schumacher) and Hugo Chevalier (Debard Automobiles by Racetivity) to reach the threshold of the podium. On the final lap, he passed Chester Kieffer (CLRT Schumacher) and finished third. Marvin Klein gave his team an almost unexpected podium finish after the disqualification from the qualifying session.
  • Fourth, Chester Kieffer (CLRT Schumacher) won as a rookie. With nine wins, the Luxembourger will be able to secure his title in the first race at Le Castellet. Karen Gaillard (Schumacher CLRT) finished second after a perfectly executed strategy and pit stop by her team. Enzo Joulié (Martinet by Alméras) took third place.
