What for an excitement in the last race for the summer break in OWRL F1. On Aston National rev, the leading team in the championship, SK Racing, took part with a only one car, driven by the well-known race n1lyn. It was his OWRL F1 debut. The same goes for the GFC team, even though one of its drivers (Chris) had driven in the series before. The story of the race was the close fight between Chris and n1lyn.
After the start on the 5,6 km long track SK|n1lyn lead the field in the first laps, followed by GFC-drivers Chris and 58style. 58Style had to retire after 14 laps. On lap 21, n!lyn entered the pit for his first pit stop, but did not slow down enough entering pit lane, resulting in a drive through penalty. This gave the lead to Chris. During the second pit stop sequence, n1lyn regained the lead.
Going into the final 5 laps of the race the SK Racing-driver had only a few seconds on hand. This seemed to be enough and it looked like Chris had to settle for his third second place in a row. But then all of a sudden, n1lyn had a spin in the tricky chicane and had to let Chris go past. Over the next four laps the drivers battled for the win and Chris managed to bring home his first victory in OWRL F1. Third place goes to Trekker. The driver from Lightning Racing, the team previously known as vsports, worked his way up to the field and scored his first podium finsih.
The OWRL F1 now goes into the summer break and will continue on 18 August for the second part of the season. In the first half of the season saw 4 different winner in 7 races. Husky won three races and is leading the championship. The same goes for his team, SK Racing. Cyber Racing looked like the strongest team in the first three races of the season, but got only 5 points in the last four races.
The OWRL will still be active during the summer months. The upcoming events will be announced later this week!
