Starting 8th, Mahias quickly took fourth place and took third position in the eighth round, before taking advantage of the fall of the two leaders, Raffaele de Rosa (Althea BMW) and Leandro Mercado (Aruba.it Junior Team) in turn 13 to win ahead of Kevin Calia and Marco Faccani.

"The first part of the race went well, but I couldn’t keep in touch with the two leaders," said Lucas. "Towards the end of the race I had improved my pace and I was happy to think I was fighting for the podium".

“When I saw the leaders in the gravel, I suddenly thought, ‘Oh my God, I’m going to win!’ I thank the Pata Yamaha team and all the guys who worked so well. For me it’s a great victory in my career at Yamaha, especially afterwards! "
