Lawson wins after a two lap sprint.

Definitely a better race then yesterday's procession.

Spec racing and rain is a good combination.

Gutting for him, he drove a fantastic race and deserved that win on his CV.

I thought Ticktum was very good as well, so a nice bonus for him.

Always so hard to believe when a spec series car fails scrutineering...

The F2 Feature race is quite lively with several incidents, VSC's etc.

Also just realised that the F2 guys get an awful lot more race laps than F1, with 2x30 lap heats and a 42 lap feature race, thats 102 laps, v 78 Laps for the GP.

Brilliant battle for 5th 6th 7th between Zhou Boschung and Lawson with 5 laps to go.

Pourchaire, having become the youngest ever F2 Pole winner, he now becomes the youngest ever F2 race winner., with Piastri 2nd and Drugovich 3rd..
And with the points Pourchaire is up to 3rd in the title race, behind Zhou and Piastri.

Agreed. The second race with the reversed reverse grid is just... Baffling.

I have posted this in the Azerbaijan GP thread but thought best throw a copy of it here as well so you all know.....

F2 is on the supports programme for this weekends Azerbaijan GP.

Just a heads up to say F2 is on the support card here this weekend with their usual twp Sprint and a Feature race format, with qualifying for race 1 tonight/today depending where in the world you are..... and then the bullshit top 10 of race 1 reverse grid crap with the two sprint races on Saturday and the Feature on Sunday.
Regardless of what I think of their qualy bullshit the racing has been quite good so far this year

No F3 though.

All to play for at the top of the points table with Zhou leading Piastri, with 17 year old Alpine Junior sensation Theo Pourchaire 3rd
