THE FINALS.
KZ2 – Palomba recovers all the way to the top.

In KZ2 the Italian Giuseppe Palomba (BirelART Racing/BirelART-TM Racing-LeCont) completed a real deed. He won the Final at the end of a recovery weekend following the hiccup he experienced in qualifying, when his time was canceled due to a irregularity of the regulation. Palomba’s deed has been a constant recover since the first of the three heats. He then claimed P2 in the Prefinal and took an early lead in the Final securing eventually the win. The other two steps of the podium went to his strongest rival, the French Jeremy Iglesias of CRG Racing Team, and the Swede Viktor Gustavsson, also on CRG. Two other CRG drivers followed: the Italian Alex Irlando and the Spanish driver Jorge Pescador, who completed a recovery race too. The sixth place went to another Spanish driver: Genis Civico (Modena Kart/BirelART-TM Racing).

1. Giuseppe Palomba (ITA)
2. Jeremy Iglesias (FRA)
3. Viktor Gustavsson (SWE)
