Jago Geerts took the lead and controlled the qualifying race in Portugal with Mattia Guadagnini and Kevin Horgmo equidistant apart in second and third but the action was behind the static top three!
Kay de Wolf had the wing mirrors on and the elbows out as he defended his fourth place with all he had as Tom Vialle got more and more frustated trying to make a move. Even when it looked like he had the pass done, de Wolf would come back and the frustration would get the better of Vialle with a couple of laps to go when he went down trying to make a desperate move on the dutch rider.
