In modified, Team Magic driver Rémi Callens after battling with his own car on Saturday, found a setup on Sunday morning for the two last qualification rounds. Rémi made a TQ run in Q4, and was cruising for a second TQ run in Q5 when he lost a screw on the steering plate. So, he qualified his Team Magic E4RS III Plus on fourth position on the grid, while Thomas obtained the ninth position.

During the finales, Rémi made nice runs and won the third finale in front of Thomas Vigneron who increased a lot his corner speed after copying the setup of Rémi. So, Rémi finished overall second, behind Loïc Jasmin, and in front of Cyril N’Diaye, while Thomas finished sixth.
