Kazim Vasiliauskas scored a sublime maiden victory of the season in the opening F2 race at Imola, whilst Andy Soucek clinched the 2009 FIA Formula Two Championship, before last rounds in Barcelona, with a third place finish.
Vasiliauskas led from start to finish after making a clean getaway from the line, although he did have an anxious moment on the run down to Tamburello for the first time when he ran wide and caught the gravel.
He managed to rejoin just in front of second place Mirko Bortolotti to maintain the lead, although he came under intense pressure.
Andy Soucek took his fifth win of the season in the second race, just one day after clinching the 2009 FIA Formula 2 Championship.
