Three Lowlanders in the top five but behind Prado
The first round in Afyonkarahisar was won by Jorge Prado. The Spaniard led from start to finish and the new champion took his next victory. In the initial phase, Maxime Renaux is in second place, but the Frenchman makes too many mistakes, causing him to pass both Jago Geerts and Calvin Vlaanderen. Despite the crashes for Renaux, fourth place goes to Roan van de Moosdijk! The F&H Racing driver also made a mistake, but he still crossed the finish line in fifth place! Marcel Conijn (23rd), Raivo Dankers (24th) and Brent Vandoninck (DNF) do not score during the first round of the Turkish GP.
