Álvaro Parente-Miguel Ramos won Race 1 on the Teo Martín McLaren, reinforcing their lead in the championship. They beat the AF Corse Ferraris of Cameron-Griffin and Lathouras-Rugolo.

Nicola Benucci (Villorba Ferrari), who suffered a heavy crash at the Ascari chicane in lap 37, prompting the red flag, is ok. The driver got off the car by his own means and was perfectly alert when he arrived to the medical centre. Following standard procedures, he will undergo a precautionary scanner check in hospital.
