The Danish Christian Lundgaard (Ward team) won the third and final round of the 2015 European Championship, KFJ category, held on the Asum Ring in Kristianstad (Sweden), thus becoming the 2015 European KFJ Champion.

This 2015 KFJ European Championship was decided only in the last race, held in Kristianstad. On the eve of the Swedish race, several drivers were able to fight for the title, which remained undecided until the end of the competitions. Several penalties also influenced the evolution of the ranking. Kenny Roosens, who had arrived in Sweden as the leader of the standings, set the fastest time in qualifying before being delayed by a long series of technical problems. Strangely, after the qualifying heats, the ranking did not seem to fully reflect the level of competitiveness shown by the various drivers and the drivers who had been most convincing were not necessarily at the top of the ranking. The situation then returned to normal after the two prefinals, which allowed the 34 finalists to be selected. Christian Lundgaard and Ivan Shvetsov shared the front line of the final, where Lundgaard immediately took command of the race, followed at first by Marta García and then by Felipe Drugovich, while Bent Viscaal and Caio Collet completed the race. top 5.

Christian Lundgaard therefore won the European Champion crown by dominating the race. After a good comeback, Presley Martono seventh in the race, he became vice-champion. Eliminated in the prefinal by decision of the Stewards, Kenny Roosens is still mounted on the lowest step of the championship podium. Third, he precedes Marta García and Clément Novalak.
