A five lap shoot-out saw Daniel Mogeda (Team#109 Retro Traffic Kawasaki) claim the first WorldSSP300 victory of his career.
Mogeda started the race from the fifth row of the grid but made rapid progress to the front of the field and claimed the win on the last lap with the leading eight riders separated by less than a second with Unai Calatayud (ARCO SASH MotoR University Team) finishing on the podium for the first time in his career in second position.
Inigo Iglesias Bravo (Fusport-RT Motorsport by SKM-Kawasaki) finished third and now leads the Championship by six points. Mogeda will also start Race 2 from the front row after setting the second fastest lap of the race. He will start behind Aldi Satya Mahendra (Team BrCorse) who set the fastest lap.
The race was red flagged following Jeffrey Buis’ (Freudenberg KTM-PALIGO Racing) crash, as he clashed with Julio Garcia (KOVE Racing Team). Buis suffered a concussion and was declared unfit for Race 2.
