GRT Yamaha Official WorldSSP Team rider Lucas Mahias thrilled his home crowd with a heroic ride to third place, to claim his third podium finish of the 2018 FIM World Supersport season. Federico Caricasulo was part of a four-way battle at the front of the race until his podium hopes were dashed with a crash on the final lap. The Italian remounted to finish 13th and in the points. Fifth place for the Swiss Randy Krummenacher (Bardhal Evan Bros. WorldSSP Team). Top ten for Kawasaki Puccetti Racing with Hikari Okubo, ninth, and Hector Barbera, tenth.
