With PESC’s reverse grid rule for the feature race, it was Zac Campbell – eighth in race one – starting from pole ahead of Jeff Giassi, and like race one it was an incident-free start until Les Combes. Guven had split the two leading cars, but found that three into one just doesn’t go. The first contact was with Giassi on the inside, followed by Campbell on the outside, sending Campbell off and Guven spearing back across the track, where he collected both Giassi and Warren. Bouteloup found himself held up by Campbell returning to the circuit, and the end result was the front three from race one – Job, Collins, and Sanchez – coming out of the melee as the front three again.
Sanchez had the initial lead, but it wasn’t long before Job used the slipstream at Kemmel to hit the front. Surprisingly though, it was Collins who next took the lead, passing both at the same spot on lap five, but a lap later Collins was down to ninth. Job made an error braking into Les Combes, pushing Collins through the chicane escape road. That triggered an automatic slow-down penalty which saw the rookie tumble down the order – and Job was quick to apologise after the race.
That left Job and Sanchez to pull away at the front, and they soon broke the slipstream, building a three-second gap. The action then was all behind them, as Maximilian Benecke took third from Tommy Ostgaard, despite a very robust defence, while Collins managed to recover up to fifth. With two laps to go, Job let Sanchez through at Les Combes, clearly planning to make the same move on the last lap rather than wait for the Spaniard to do it to him. That was exactly what happened, but Sanchez wasn’t giving up the place without a serious fight. Job had to defend at Bus Stop, giving Sanchez the inside line for the left-hander, and the two came out door-to-door. However Job had the traction and just beat Sanchez to the line by 0.148s.
Further back, championship leader Rogers managed to make it to 13th place for some useful points, and despite everything that happened has actually extended his championship lead to 99 points. That’s because DeJong also had a bad weekend, picking up just one point for his 25th place finish in the feature race. Job’s double win means he now replaces DeJong as the nearest challenger to Rogers, but a likely qualifying ban for the Red Bull driver at the next round at the Nürburgring means that will probably all change again in two weeks’ time.
