Having added yet another pole position to his already dominant campaign in his rookie Formula Renault 2.0 Alps season, championship leader Antonio Fuoco subsequently converted his Spa pole into a win as his teammates Bruno Bonifacio and Luca Ghiotto completed the podium, making it the second Prema 1-2-3 in a row.

At the start, there were problems in the middle of the pack when Luke Chudleigh spun out in turn one, which set up a collision between Jakub Dalewski and Daniele Cazzaniga. The collision triggered a safety car period, which came as a relief for Egor Orudzhev who made a great recovery? and, despite the ten-place grid penalty, put in a good drive to eventually finish fourth.

Hans Villemi took fifth with Joffrey De Narda managing sixth, after he pulled a late overtake on Kevin Jorg. Eighth place was taken by Dario Capitanio, getting his first points since his seventh place in the opening round at Vallelunga.

Ninth was for Simon Tirman and Kevin Gilardoni completed the top 10.

“It was quite emotional crossing the finish line in first place here in Monza. All the best drivers in car racing history were protagonists here and this gives a special feeling to my win.” said race-winner Fuoco.
