Sector one on lap one told the story early: 0 drivers would spend the next hour paying for a messy start.

Outside, it was Warm and dry. On asphalt, about 26°C. 7 cars worth of ego and braking points.

By mid race you could see two trains forming, gaps opening where pace or tyres bit harder.

Car contact stayed surprisingly low on the timing sheet.

At the end, Denis Takistani held the point that counts. The rest of the field will replay the same corners all week.
