In the first race, Citroën Total WTCC driver José María López took the race win in his Citroën C-Elysée WTCC. And the win was enough to give José María López his first WTCC drivers’ title to win the 2014 title. Contractions to José María López winning this years title.
Second was ROAL Motorsport driver Tom Chilton in his Chevrolet RML Cruze TC1, he was over eight seconds behind López in the end. While third place was Citroën Total WTCC driver Sébastien Loeb in his Citroën C-Elysée WTCC, he was nine seconds behind López in the end.

He finished in fifteenth place overall and 76 seconds behind López in the end. And that race win in class was enough to give Franz Engstler the Yokohama Drivers' Trophy for this season.
