In the heavy heat of Sarno, the DD2s made two false starts before setting off for their Prefinal A of the Rotax Max Challenge Grand Finals. Nicolas Picot (FRA) started first, but Diego Portell (CHI) overtook him on the second lap, which did not prevent the Frenchman from retaliating. Petr Bezel (CZE) took 2nd place and took the lead on lap 5. In 4th, Daniel Machacek (AUT) was ahead of Marek Mizera (CZE). Picot took over the lead on the 10th of the 15 laps. Bezel then had to face the threat from Portell behind him, leaving Picot a small margin. He won by 1.3” from Bezel while the battle for 3rd place went to Machacek ahead of Jakub Bezel (CZE) and Marc Dueholm (DNK). Portell finished 16th.
