Plan for the race is clearly to stay out of trouble, dodge the carnage and walk away with some points…. No boost, not much expectations

Welcome to the Austrian GP!
The weather is fine, we are good to go
Buitenhuis gets away cleanly and retains the lead
Into the first corner and there is not enough space available for the midfield
Pedersen has to take evasive action
He bumps into Ancevski, who is launched into the barrier and out of the race
The lower half of the grid is caught in the ensuing traffic jam
Meanwhile at the front, Buitenhuis has been passed by both Wrexhams
It is a close fight among the top 3 as we enter lap 2
Gustavo passes Buitenhius for 3rd
Brickles tries to run away with the lead
Meanwhile the MMMs haven't decided on a teamorder yet
Slipstreaming from 5th to 8th
O'Neill loses it into turn one
He spins and continues in last place
A close fight between de los Rios and Karda is setting itself up
Elleker gets it wrong and puts a wheel on the grass in the second corner
He is not able to catch the car and goes out of the race
Sheppard runs into the remains of Elleker, to the dismay of his front wing
Buitenhius hasn't given up on catching the Wrexhams
Caranti is also looking for more than 7th
De Bruyker down in 3rd and under pressure by I think Gustavo
Sheppard grabs some spare parts
Gustavo makes it past De Bruyker
But not for long
Switching positions back and forth
Close fights also at the back of the field
Alfadil making quick work of Pedersen
Sheppard in a lonely 2th after his unscheduled stop
Buitenhuis is back with newfound pace and hunts Brickles
Stoddart is passed by Hinz who shows decent pace in the first stint
Szucs now under double pressure
Hinz makes it two for the price of one
O'Neill tries to make up lost ground
That is Hinz' pace explained, he was the lightest car on track
Too close for comfort for Szucs
Silva looses control and does a half spin
Silva rejoins in front of the other Mistral
Buitenhuis attacks Brickles
And immediately enters the pits
He rejoins in 8th
Pedersen passes O'Neill
O'Neill tries to enter the pits and sends Pedersen into a spin
Pedersen drops to 19th
Keranen navigates around the offroad-going de los Rios
Szucs also going wide in turn 1
...and on that cliffhanger we enter a break in the coverage

Not much coverage of the Tyrant cars so far so it's hard to say how the race is going for us. Hopefully that changes in the second part.
The lap 1 traffic jam slowed us down a bit, hopefully Bence didn’t lose much time by going wide
I hate this track…..

The qualifying was good but that was an unexpectedly fast end to the race. A shame

And we are back with the 2nd half of the race!
He spins into the path of one of the BRTs, I think it is Sheppard
Both end up with front wing damage
Meanwhile Brickles pits from the lead
Crucially, he rejoins in front of Buitenhuis
Sheppard and Szucs are in for repairs
De Bruyker now pitting
Great camera work I have to say
Uh oh, Karda hits the rear wheel of one of the Mistrals
Another incident due to a car entering the pits
Majumdar narrowly avoids Karda on his way to the pits
Karda continues facing the correct direction
Gromov with a quiet race in 11th
Brickles is able to extend his lead
Karda tries to make up lost ground
Stoddart proves to be a worthy opponent, though
Gromov is under attack by both Mistrals
Karda is still pushing Stoddart to the limit
Oh dear, Stoddart loses it under the immense pressure into the last corner
A nasty high speed crash
Despite loosing a wheel Stoddart carries on
Entering the pits could be an option
Nope, Stoddart continues down the pitstraight. I'm not sure what he is trying to achieve here
He parks the car on the second spot on the grid
This is really dangerous
Really really really dangerous
Gromov still manages to keep the Mistral squad at bay
An attack is launched
The pack is running into the slower Beggani
Gromov is able to put Beggani between him and the Mistrals. This might give him an advantage
Brickles laps Szucs
Now Beggani has to resist the Mistral team
Karda passing Hinz for 7th
Gromov makes good use of the Beggani roadblock
De Bruyker would surely enjoy a podium spot
Beggani under immense pressure. Majumdar in the background tries to assist his teammate
The battle for third is not over yet
Mistral vs. Tyrant
4-wide into turn one might be a problem
Ouch, the tyrants hit each other
I think I can spot an really unhappy looking Mr O'Brien at the pitwall
Damage for Majumdar
The fight for 3rd is still on
Karda is closing in on de los Rios with insane speed
I think the Mistrals just enjoy each others company
Karda now in de los Rios' gearbox
And he goes through
I can't help but feel that Gromov dodged a bullet in this race
Commentator's curse, off he goes on the last lap
No words. I was cheering for you mate!
Brickles avoids all drama and wins!
Buitenhius 2nd. He had a sniff at the win but the pace wasn't quite there
De Bruyker in 3rd
Gustavo has to accept 4th
Karda passed de los Rios on the last lap
Mistral teamwork until the finish line
He spins into the path of one of the BRTs, I think it is Sheppard
