Adam McLean grabbed the hole shot and quickly obtained a one second plus advantage. As lap one closed, McLean led Petr Najman by 1.16 seconds.
Working his through to second on lap two, Marek Cerveny (WRP Wepol Racing Parts Triumph) was gradually nibbling into McLean’s race lead.
By the time lap-four arose, he was just 0.263 behind the Tobermore rider.
