GUSTAFSSON IS AT THE TOP IN THE OKJ

The Russian Kirill Smal (Energy-TM-Vega) was the leader after the OKJ heats, but he was rather unlucky in the decisive stage. It was then that the two British drivers, Dexter Patterson and Jonny Edgar (both on Exprit-TM), took over the leadership winning the two Pre-finals. Then in the Final, it was the turn of the Swedish Viktor Gustafsson (Tony Kart-Vortex) to take the lead after a recovery from the 6th row. Gustafsson leads with 56 pts, 3 points ahead of Edgar. Third position, after a tough battle for the victory in the Final, for the Russian Alexey Brizhan (Tony Kart-Vortex) with 43 pts, ahead of the Italian Luigi Coluccio (BirelArt-TM) – 32 pts.
