After the huge misshap 2 weeks ago,it was very refreshing to see things back to normal - despite the badly famous turn 2 of this South City configuration,there was no trouble and besides few stronger or weaker bumps,the race went rather clean as there were some complaints but no actual reports/protests. But that does not mean that people were simply cruising around the city without intention to improve their current positions,on the contrary - some raced so hard,they found out where exactly the limits of RB4 tyres are and some overpushed them losing pace and positions. However that was more the case on lower positions - from top5 starters only one did not finish in same position as he started,more amusingly - 4th and 12th place starters traded the positions in finish.
Just like 2 weeks ago,driver with a single letter in his name led all the laps of the race - M once again dominated the event,allthough not in absolute domination fashion - he was just 0.16 seconds faster in qualifying and finished with over 6 seconds gap over competition. The lithunian is the 25th driver in RTFR history,who has scored at least 4 race wins,while his pole position was also his 4th,addionally scoring his 3rd fastest lap of the race and 15th top5 finish. The 2nd place in current season standings (despite finishing just 3rd in 1st race) will keep the position also after this round - R.Kardol was the 2nd best in the latest race,scoring record breaking 87th top5 finish,taking over sole lead in this chart. Another lithuanian finished 3rd - Loco's previous best results in both sessions were 7th position in 4 started and finished races,yesterday he improved both of these to 3rd position. 4th was True Alpha,who started from 12th position,he did a lot of overtaking to score his 23rd top5 finish,top5 was closed by 3rd B2R driver in yesterdays top positions - Twincam scored his 5th top5 finish.
