After a very fast start for the 45min final Louis and Karabelas were fighting for 1st place. After a small incident between the two Louis went for some repairs and Vrettos took the chance to lead with Halim and Loukakis in the same 5sec gap until 35min mark of the race. Karabelas went for a tyre change (so did Halim) so other drivers with different strategy found the opportunity to climb positions.

1 Loukakis XRAY NT1
2 Vrettos XRAY NT1
3 Petris XRAY NT1
(only 1sec ahead of 4th place after the 45min race)
