He led the race initially, then after a brief challenge, found his pace again, taking the lead back on lap 9 and holding it firmly to the flag. Holly Weaver and Ben Clark put in strong drives to round out the top three.

Holly Weaver wasn't to be outdone, snatching the lead on lap 8, only for Bill Boag to reclaim it just a lap later. From lap 9 onwards, Bill was untouchable, consistently pulling away.
Holly Weaver secured a strong second place, finishing just 6.95 seconds behind Bill. Ben Clark fought hard for third, finishing a mere 0.86 seconds behind Holly.
