In the "ordinary" heats, Alex Powell (a success), Rashid Al Dhaheri (two victories) and the poleman Coskun Irfan emerged with arrogance, able to impose himself three times. These were three Rokkers, along with the Russian Maksim Orlov, to compose the first rows of super heats that preceded the final Sunday. Irfan and Al Dhaheri won the respective super heats and showed up in the final with the favors of the forecasts, followed by Powell, Orlov, Popv and Gowda. The first Italian was Marenghi, eighth, who preceded De Palo and Marconato.

The final was one of the most uncertain and spectacular that we remember, with five small Rokkers able to give a great show. At the start Irfan, from the first position, was impeccable, took the lead and tried to escape the pursuers, Gowda, Al Dhaheri and Marenghi. The latter was the author of a fulminating departure from the eighth position. After three rounds, to riacciuffare the fugitive Irfan, Al Dhaheri has thought that has passed to the command pulling in slipstream, Powell, De Palo, Popov and Marconato.

With these pilots attacked one on the other bumper the race flew towards the final and the last two laps gave so many overtaking and some forbidden shots. The Jamaican Powell got the better of all by virtue of a great coldness, which allowed him not to succumb to the pressure exerted by Al Dhaheri and Kutskov. Powell's victory was clear but the podium was redesigned already in the park closed with a penalty that hit Al Dhaheri (for the nose out of place) and promoted, in second place, the Russian Kutskov and the third Irfan.
