At the end of the 70-lap race, victory went to Trampos Racing, victory went to Luca.
The top of the podium felt completely new again, having not stood upon it in four races.
A catalyst and a wrench were his rewards on Sunday.
Other rewards were a firm handshake from the president and a proud peck on the cheek from Mrs. Doyle.
What a Grand Prix run it was for Luca, and from the look on his face, it seemed he hadn't even broken a sweat.
It was the first race of the season with a smooth finish.
There were no last-lap dramas, no final-corner overtakes, and no last-sector brawls to shadow the victory.
Luca held P1 uncontested, cruising across the checkered flag and finish line with a six-second lead over P2 finisher Ailbeart Moireach.
Considering he hadn't been troubled since lap 57, it might have been the most solid and safest finish of his career.
Completely opposite to the chaos of the last race.
