“Yeah, we got close,” Bray said from the track after the Final,” but we just didn’t have the balance in the chassis set-up after all the rain we’ve had here.”

The Final was won by Italian driver Alex Irlando (Sodikart) who started sixth from Benjamin Persson from Sweden (CRG) and pole-sitter Ricardo Longhi (Birel).
