The first race was won by the Austrian Marc Coleselli. The 21-year-old from Salzburg won the 13-lap round ahead of Nicolaj Møller Madsen (Denmark), who started as pole-sitter. The first podium in the 2015 season was completed by German Dennis Marschall.

Jan Kisiel from Poland managed a strong fourth place. Rallycross stars Foust and Heikkinen are attracting special attention. Round one of this duel was won by Foust, who deserved fifth place while Heikkinen managed the 13th spot.
