| Vagelis Papachristos showed up unbeatable throughout the race and clenched the victory from the beginning by taking the pole position and coming out on top by taking all three legs. The control grp tires made the competition tough and the podium was completed by champion Kidis and his loyal rival Diamadis. The best part was the 2nd final run when Papachristos and Diamadis finished together on the finish line. |
