He only started fourth on the grid this time, but made a stunning getaway to pass Sebastian Hohenthal round the outside at Riches for second place.
The win then fell into Devaney's lap when Brendon Hartley, who had opened a 1.5-second cushion in the first four laps, spun out at Riches on lap five.
Devaney controlled the race from there on and maintain a comfortable gap over second-placed Hohenthal.
"I knew from the first race that it would be hard for anyone to pass me but I think I had the pace over Seb anyway," said Devaney. "It can't get any better than this."
Jaime Alguersuari added a third place to his second earlier in the day and also set the fastest lap to take the championship lead by one point from Sergio Perez, who finished behind him in fourth.
Oliver Turvey finished fifth, again salvaging some decent points from poor grid positions, ahead of a four-car battle for sixth between Atte Mustonen, Max Chilton, Marcus Ericsson, and Walter Grubmuller.
Stefan Wilson took another National Class victory, running in the top 10 for the duration of the race.
