Brits go mad
Jimmy Laad took a much celebrate win in front of his home crowd at the British GP at Silverstone. In the early stages it didn't look like he'd be able to achieve it at all, driving down in 4th place, but when the rain set in there was no stopping him. Engberink finished second, just ahead of Utzer, who was closing in quick in the final laps. Wolf took 4th, Lutz was the last classified finisher in 5th place. Keranen once again didn't make it to the end, he spun out on the slippery track.

Ooh, 4 points for the decider!
Did not expect that turnaround tbh. Well done!
I might be able to overtake Aidan in the all-time standings (in terms of points) next race. Only Omer has more points than the both of us.
@Aidan Keranen , are you still here?
May the best driver win!
Title decision postponed
Jimmy Laad took the win at the Belgian GP, thanks to a better strategy than Jason Lutz. Laad went for a one stopper, while Lutz opted for two. After Lutz' first stop he took the lead, and kept the pace high despite being on older tyres. Lutz retook the lead when Laad stopped, but he couldn't build a gap big enough to stay in front after his second stop. After that Laad showed a controlled drive, and managed to keep the charging Lutz behind him in the final laps. Utzer finished 3rd, being on the same strategy as Laad he was struggling with his tyres towards the end, and couldn't keep Lutz behind him. Engberink finished 4th, ending his podium streak which had been going since round 2. Wolf finished 5th a long way down the road, while Keranen again didn't see the checkered flag.
The title will be decided in the final race, Laad is only 4 points behind Engberink. Utzer should have 3rd in the bag pretty much, while Wolf and Lutz are tied for 4th at the moment. Keranen despite his win in the opening round is last.
