Race
Due to a thunder storm in Malta, Jason Muscat disconnected in the warm up lap. The Race Directors decided to re-start the seassion.
In the second warm-up lap the field drove very slow into the last turn, and an un-aware Boyd Bryson lightly tapped Roy's car. Roy's car had damage for the remainder of the race.
The second time everything went well and it was Ryan Walker and Roy Schroten who had the best starts. But Roy spun his car later in the first lap due to the slight damage. Ryan was able to drive his car to 8th place after the start.
It was Petter who kept the lead before team mate Rickard. David Fidock had a jump start and had to do a stop-and-go penalty. David has had bad luck the whole season, but in the paddock people expect a podium soon from the English driver.
