This weekend's race was the occasion to gather on the mythical track of Spa-Francorchamps, where 23 drivers took the start under a rare enough to mention, blue sky.
Only 2 drivers started with softs, including Linus Jonsson starting on pole position, while 10 drivers were on hards and 10 on mediums. So tyre choice and pit stop strategy would play an important role during this race.
As the cars rushed down the track, a slowdown at the raidillon caused a pile-up including several cars, while Linus Jonsson and Adamike99 were already opening up a gap.
Then, 8 minutes were sufficient for Adamike99 to overtake in the Combes section and take the lead of the grand-prix, which he will not give up until the finish line. The rest of the race showed that the choice of tyres was crucial, as softs and mediums quickly overheated on this challenging layout, forcing some drivers to pit earlier than expected. 6 drivers suffered from the difficulty of the track and had to retire before the end of the race.
On the finish line, the podium was shared between Adamike99, Linus Jonsson and Pitman while the best lap record went to Linus Jonsson. Also worth mentioning are the performances of Steve Hayward and Tom Zeeuw, both gaining 13 places to finish 9th and 10th, as well as Technoluddite, who climbed 7 places to enter the top 5.

I noticed the 2 stop was good in this race, but it failed me because I started on the softs
Linus Jonsson
Totaled the car in the fast left before the bus stop. Complete disaster of a race
Florian Masse

very brave move meisterjager, taking the inside line into T1, you held it well on the grass after going wide at the exit

Sorry lucent, I did not expect you to slow down that significantly and had no chance to avoid contact imo.

So much things to say after the race. I have never seen such bad behavior on a THR race. Hope the 2nd race will be better in terms of gentleman racing

That were two great battles. Thank you @meisterJäger it was awesome! Shame 3 other competitors got unlucky otherwise we would have a 5-way battle. Cheers everyone

That was a short race. Gearbox said Kaboom after few laps

Good battles early in the race @Ony & @Potatohedron. Unlucky collisions, looking forward to next time.

Damages on the front wing since T1 gave me a lot of understeer + high diff settings may have done the job to protect me from oversteering issues
