In Q1 spdoRoedii set the fastest time while being 2 tenth of a second faster than the current world record. But this didn't help him in Q2 as he only reached the 3rd place behind FPR | Chris on Pole and ^P^Storm. Both cyber drivers complete the Top 5.

Storm is able to attack Chris on the way to Turn 1, but the FPR driver keeps his lead on the outside. His teammate Matze takes a quick look at the back of cyber|scipy. spdoKiLl3rmoves up to 5th. Both Speedcore drivers kick themselves in the gravel. Chris can hold his position on the front for 2 and a half laps before he connects many mistake into a lap to forget. Storm takes the lead and drives fast lap after fast lap, but spdoRoedii can keep up. It becomes very clear that the racewin will be decided between these two drivers.

Almost every driver is on a 2 stop strategy. Storm has to stop three laps earlier than Roedii and loses the lead. When Roedii comes out after his stop, he's in front of Storm, but loses his position after running wide in the last turn. This gives other drivers the chance to lead the race. cyber|Misko leads for three laps and even 1stBFA have their first lead lap with filo. During the second stint Storm and Roedii move away from the field, only Misko can keep the gap smaller than 10 seconds.

Again Storm has to stop a few laps earlier than Roedii, who don't change his tyres and therefore exits the pits in front of Storm. This time he can keep his position to spdo's first F1 win although Storm can close the gap to just three seconds on the finish line. Cyber|Misko finishes 3rd and in front of FPR|Matze on 4th. 1stBFA drive to their best overall finish with filo on 5th and haelje on 6th followed by the man of the race one cyber|scipy. The last position in the points was taken by OMC's reserve driver Speedykev, but spdoKiLl3r steals the last point on the final metres.

Three drivers lead now the championship, all of them with 10 points. The third race will be in two weeks on the South City Long course just one week after the famous Monaco Grand Prix.
