Regularity is going to be key this season in the Supersport World Championship. The drivers who started a priori to fight for the title are not scoring too many points, which is creating a true anarchy in the 600cc category. Without going any further, Roberto Rolfo, despite finishing eleventh today, continues to lead the championship.

In a career where everything has happened, Federico Caricasulo has taken the cat to the water and thus achieves its first triumph in the category followed by a Decha Kraisart that has offered us a true spectacle. Niki Tuuli he completed a magnificent triplet for Yamaha as he crossed the finish line in third position. Both Jacobsen and Cluzel were unable to finish the test.

Jules Cluzel went out for all once the traffic light went out. He began to pull as much as he could and managed to open a small hole. Meanwhile, riders like Charlempol Polamai, Lucas Mahias or PJ Jacobsen said goodbye to the race, the first due to a crash and the other two due to mechanical failures.

However, the French rider was not going to have it easy: Federico Caricasulo and Decha Kraisart hunted him down with 10 laps to go. Thus, a beautiful fight for the first position was foreseen between three pilots wanting to win the race: Cluzel to achieve distance from Sofuoglu, Caricasulo to achieve his first victory and Kraisart to win in his debut, in front of his public. Unfortunately, seven laps from the checkered flag Jules Cluzel's Honda engine said enough and had to give up.

Thus, Caricasulo and Kraisart were ahead. Both were ahead on several occasions to the pleasure of the Thai public that was in the circuit. In the last laps, however, the fight was broken: Kyle Smith came to the two pilots after setting fastest lap after lap. Why was the race breaking? Well, because the British arrived sanctioned by Race Direction (he had to lose three places for causing the fall of Gamarino) and ended up teasing a Kraisart fighting for victory.

Federico Caricasulo would end up winning the second round of the Supersport World Cup, while Kraisart crossed the finish line in third position. As expected, Race Direction showed Kyle Smith a black flag for skipping the previous three-position penalty and a Ride Trough derived from, forgive the redundancy, that last penalty. In this way, Niki Tuuli jumped directly to third position, behind the local Kraisart. Behind, Thitipong Warokorn and Kyle Ryde completed the top5.
