Fourth-place starter Caleb Campbell (No. 68 Kids Help Phone / Camtacc Properties / Legacy Foundation of Canada / LC Racing Ligier JS F422) had the best jump at the drop of the green flag, quickly moving up to the second position. Behind him, Shipman, who had fallen to fourth, started to challenge Hauanio to regain third. While Popow drove away, Campbell fell into the grips of Shipman and Hauanio, turning the battle for third into a three-way battle for second. Campbell held the runner-up position for nearly two-thirds of the race, but with approximately 10 minutes left on the clock, Shipman finally found a way around. From there, Shipman kept his focus out front, pulling up to Popow’s rear wing and completing the pass to take the race lead. Campbell followed to move into second, while Popow was left to run third.
