Gerasim Skulanov (Formula K Serafini - IPK / TM Racing) manages to win a hard-fought Mini final. After finishing second in the WSK Champion Cup last week, the Russian rider managed to take the top step of the podium on the last lap after leading a good part of the race.

Behind the Formula K driver, obviously, a long series of disappointed people who competed for the victory on equal terms with the winner but who for one reason or another did not bring home the desired result. Let's start from Rashid Al Dhaheri (Parolin Racing Kart - Parolin / TM Racing). The UAE driver on the penultimate lap, when he was in the lead, was really one step away from completing a beautiful comeback made necessary by the 22nd time in qualifying. It is a pity that precisely in the excited final stages he finishes in fifth position, even off the podium that he certainly deserved.

Even Dmitry Matveev (Energy Corse - Energy / TM Racing) probably feels he has not brought home what he deserved. After bad luck in the last heat yesterday - the broken petrol filter forces him to last place - today in the prefinal he wins, but he is penalized by 3 seconds. His recovery stops in fourth position.

Final definitely to be forgotten for Kean Nakamura (Team Driver Racing Kart - KR / Iame). The Japanese starts from pole and fight for victory until the 6th lap when he is thrown out and retires. Disappointed him and disappointed the Iame who could capitalize on an excellent result in the mini, but who must be satisfied with a 10th place with Peter Bouzinelos (KidiX - KR / Iame), an excellent rookie already capable of hitting the top 10.

Among the happy ones, certainly Anatoly Khavalkin (Parolin Racing Kart - Parolin / TM Racing) who after last week's victory is confirmed at the top with the second final place, a result that allows TM Racing to score e first-second position and to repair the missed result of Parolin with Al Dhaheri.

On the third step of the podium a radiant Jimmy Helias (Tony Kart Racing Team - Tony Kart / Vortex) able to capitalize a very good results in the exiting last part of final race. The French driver is able score a recovery from ninth position. A significant result for Vortex that also puts Kai Sorensen (Tony Kart Racing Team - Tony Kart / Vortex) in the top 10, 8th.

To mention the other drivers who complete the top 10: German Foteev (Energy Corse - Energy / TM Racing), 6th, Maciej Gladysz (Parolin Racing Kart - Parolin / TM Racing), 7th, and Mark Kastelic (Team Driver Racing Kart - KR / TM Racing), 10th after an incredible comeback that saw him recover even 14 positions.
