Notes:
* ^1 – Zane Maloney was supposed to start from third position, but stalled on the grid on the formation lap. He then was required to start from the pit lane, with his grid slot being left vacant in the process.
* ^2 – Amaury Cordeel was given a 10 second time penalty for leaving the track and gaining an advantage.
* ^3 – Richard Verschoor finished first on the road, but was later disqualified as the plank on the floor of his car was thinner than permitted by the regulations. Kush Maini inherited the win, and Isack Hadjar inherited the fast lap point originally awarded to Verschoor.
