The scenario changed drastically on lap 38, when a multi-car crash involved several drivers, including Helio Meza and Andrea Lozano. This incident forced a prolonged red flag, adding tension to the race.

After the restart, Esteban Rodríguez took the lead, holding the position until the final laps. However, a new yellow flag three laps from the finish allowed Alonso Salinas to seize the opportunity.
