Guevara led the way, Dennis Foggia was in second place followed by his team-mate Tatsuki Suzuki. Britain’s Scott Ogden was in 11th place among the front runners.

Two laps later Daniel Holgado made his way up-to second place, there was now a nine way freight train at the front from Guevara to Joel Kelso.

Joel Kelso lost the front at turn three, the Australian was doing all he could to hang on to the front group of riders.

With 20 laps to go Guevara had a 0.6s lead from Foggia, the leading group was now down to six riders. Sergio Garcia was now in third place, Foggia was dropping the riders behind him with a gap of 0.4s to third placed man Garcia.

Guevara extended his lead at the front of the field to 1.5s, Foggia had a track limits warning with 13 laps remaining to the race, Garcia was right on the back wheel of Foggia. Deniz Oncu was leading the second group of riders in seventh place. Josh Whatley retired from the race on lap 16, both VisionTrack riders were now out of the German GP.

Seven laps remaining to the race and Guevara’s lead was now 3.5s, there was a battle for second place between Foggia, Garcia, Sasaki and Suzuki. The last few laps would be hard fought between the four riders!
