Davids Trefilovs achieved a better start and directly took the leading position. During the first half of the race, Van Walstijn stayed in his wind shadow and fought for victory. In the end he had to let Trefilovs drive off though and came in second. “This was a hard race. I took the lead due to a good start and then defended my position. My team and I are very content”, the winner from Berlin summed up. Third winner Valentino Fritsch (BirelART Racing KSW) had to show his fighting spirit until the finish line though. Konstantin Kapetanidis (CPB Sport) was right at his bumper, but couldn’t find a way past him. Patrick Kreutz (RS Motorsport) came in fifth on his home track, but a time penalty threw him out of the cup ranks. Tim Tröger (Mach1 Motorsport) inherited his position.
