Mitch Evans secured his first GP2 series win of the season leading home his team-mate Sean Galael by 5 seconds

The Campos Racing duo benefited from an aggressive pit strategy, pitting early in the race and surviving the final few laps on wearing tires.

The win has catapulted Evans up the drivers standings after problems to rivals Antonio Giovinazzi, Norman Nato and Artem Markelov.

The Kiwi lies in second equal spot on 55 points, just three behind championship leader Raffaele Marciello.
