Although Ben Hanley (ART GP / TM) made the best start in race 1 of KZ2 on Saturday at La Conca, Max Verstappen (CRG / TM) didn’t wait around to get into the rhythm and returned to the leader after mid-race and took control inexorably. In third position, Paolo De Conto (Birel / TM) was threatened by Patrik Hajek (Praga / Parilla), but retained his place from the Czech driver who was passed by Fabian Federer (CRG / Modena). Charles Leclerc (ART GP / TM) held onto 6th from Riccardo Negro (DR / TM) and Bas Lammers (Praga / Parilla).
Ben Hanley (ART GP / TM) went ahead of Max Verstappen (CRG / TM) again in the second heat, but the Dutchman needed just over a lap to regain control. Paolo De Conto (Birel / TM) fought with Hanley and let Fabian Federer (CRG / Modena) past before returning to third place. Patrik Hajek (Praga / Parilla) lost time early in the race, while Riccardo Negro (DR / TM) was back to 5th. Bas Lammers (Praga / Parilla) gradually gained ground. Verstappen won his second heat from Hanley and Hajek, De Conto having lost his third place in the final lap.
