The Rotax Micro-Max class provided plenty of action throughout the day today at ICAR. After qualifying on the pole-positon, a tough pre-final for Matthew Latifi (Ferrolati Corse/CRG) forced him to start from the second row. Making quick gains on the start, Latifi was able to find himself of the rear bumper of leader Thomas Simard (Birel). The two traded the top spot a couple times throughout the opening laps, but as the laps wound down Simard was able to pull a short gap.
Eventually taking the checkered flag, Simard won the race with Latifi right behind. However a technical issue in post-tech removed Simard from the results and elevated Latifi to the win.
William Chayer (Birel) ran a great race, just behind the top-two, and would eventually score the second step on the podium and Andres Phillipe de Alba Estes (TonyKart) was awarded third.
