Karamyshev and Fulín clinch titles
The Russian driver dominated the field in his Campos Racing Chevrolet Cruze; he sprinted to the lead from pole position and resisted to Mat’o Homola’s assault in the final laps.
Fulín was also an undisturbed leader in his class, finishing third overall and clinching his second consecutive European Cup.
The title fights for the other two classes remain wide open.
