Moreover, Jilkova was handed a 20-second penalty for a false start, pushing her down to seventh at the finish.

Pole-sitter Hyman capitalised on his pleasing start throughout the race.

Down the grid, Alva, starting from P2, dropped a couple of places at the very beginning before he recovered and regained his second spot. But he was way behind Hyman.

Jilkova was looking certain for a podium finish until her car had an issue, allowing Parante to move up a spot to P3, where he finished.
