Webster made it back-to-back victories for Evans GP in Race 2 on Sunday morning at Sepang International Circuit. Costa Toparis finished second for AGI Sport, ahead of Evans GP’s Kai Daryanani in third.

Nicolas Stati finished fourth, ahead of Rookie Class winner Inigo Anton, who made it two wins from two in class. Series leader Jimmy Piszcyk dropped from second place on the grid to second last following a drive through penalty for having personnel on the grid beyond the 15s board, but fought his way back to sixth with two overtakes on the final lap.

Sebastien Amadio recovered from a stall on the grid and finished seventh, ahead of Seth Gilmore, who also took second place in the Rookie Class. Imogen Radburn finished third in class and ninth overall despite a 5s penalty for a false start.

Race 1 winner Tiago Rodrigues had a race to forget after a technical issue on the grid saw him pushed to the pit lane, restarted, and sent to the Grand Prix pit lane for race start. A subsequent drive through penalty for team personnel being on the grid with him past the 15s board saw the Macau-born driver cemented in last place for Evans GP.
