So here we are. The culmination of a long hard season with a championship to be decided. The weather is great again this evening so lets not waste time babbling and have ourselves a race
We are off and we see De Boer and Maverick get off the line well
Alpenstrom has a great start as well coming up the inside of Jantsher and McGregor to take third at the first corner
We see just behind that Johnson making it in front of Vukcevic with contact at the rear of the field
Maverick is alongside De Boer into the sweeping left hander but De Boer will come out in front to hold the lead
Behind that Jantsher forces McGregor wide and Kamikaze comes around the outside of the Australian
Maverick forces De Boer to the outside in the chicane but still cannot get past
McGregor finds himself under pressure from Vukcevic as he finds his feet
Who goes around the outside, nice move by the Montenegrin driver
Kederer loses out to Hunsley behind that
But fights back at the exit of the chicane
Only to be stuck on the outside having to yield to Hunsley
Down the long back straight and Johnson uses the slipstream to pass McGregor at the chicane at the end
We see Kederer being forced all the way to the other side of the circuit if he wants to make the pass
There is contact in front with Edvardsen squeezing Nikolov out
Kederer tries to go the long way around both Edvardsen and Hunsley because of it but has to settle for just Hunsley
Copeman this time making the pass on McGregor who is going very slowly
Kederer only had to wait a straight to pass Edvardsen though
Girard parks it on the inside of Antunis further back
Nikolov has a better drive out of the last corner and is drag racing McGregor to turn one
Where he makes the pass on the Aussie
Girard and Antunis still scrapping with Girard holding the inside at turn one to keep the Brazilian back
Standings after the early exchange of lap one
We see Alpenstrom diving up the inside of Maverick and he goes into second place
Kederer now goes around the outside of McGregor as Edvardsen looks on
Silvestre pass Hunsley as he looks to progress through the field
Brilley passes Marinescu as regulars of the back marker scrapping
Edvardsen is the next man to line up McGregor who he gets by at Turn one
Tafuro nearly manages to lose his front wing on the rear of Marinescu's car
Vukcevic tries to deter Johnson by pushing him all the way to the white line
It will not be enough though as Johnson gets through
He is not the only one as Copeman shoots around the faster outside line of the chicane
McGregor drops yet another place to Silvestre this time
Silva outbrakes himself and collects Byrne
Brilley cannot avoid it and he hits Silva
Silva and Byrne end up the wrong way
France v England as Girard uses the Englishman's slipstream for 14th place
Kederer pulls out of Nikolov's slipstream very early as they sprint to the end of the straight
Kederer has the inside line and takes 9th place
The gap is holding at a second for De Boer to Alpenstrom
Kamikaze alongside Jantsher at the popular passing chicane
He has to wait till they are in the middle of the chicane to use the quicker line
Brilley makes Vilela a victim of his at the back of the field
Kederer gets Vukcevic at that chicane again as he tries to take third in the championship
Girard is trying to stop him and passes McGregor in that effort
Silva passes Marinescu in his recovery from his spin
McGregor continues his spectacular decent of the standings as Brilley goes by
Kederer is alongside Copeman at the beginning of the chicane
And ahead at the exit
Edvardsen passes Nikolov to grab the 10th spot for now
We see Silva having his turn at a drag race with Tafuro this time
Which he wins to move to 20th spot
Brilley driving well passes Antunis now too, its been a good drive by the Welshman
Time for a short break. More action coming up from the Abu Dhabi circuit

Welcome back and it is time for the next segment of this crucial race
We are onboard with Kederer who has Johnson going defensive
He is clearly the faster man and the slipstream just helps him get by Johnson who does make him work through the chicane for it
Edvardsen copies Kederer just a couple of places behind
But makes his pass a little more easily
Johnson cuts off Copeman forcing the American to lock the brakes up in a big way
No damage comes from it though
Standings with the pit stops to come
Again Johnson refuses to let Copeman pass
De Boer is the first to pit, as does Maverick
Alpenstrom takes the lead currently as Kederer pits
Copeman also coming in this lap
De Boer rejoins in 11th and Maverick 13th with some clear air
Copeman comes out right behind Byrne with Kederer losing out coming out behind him
Silva takes the inside line on Vilela
While behind that Copeman uses the fresher tyres to drive by Byrne
Johnson and Nikolov make their respective stops
As Kederer finds himself blocked by Byrne
But he doesnt give up on the pass and clears Byrne
Johnson is out 13th as Nikolov makes it out in front of Byrne
Brilley frustrating De Boer as he is allowed to defend his spot and does
Alpenstrom pits
So does Edvardsen
Alpenstrom is leaving the pits where is De Boer?
He is coming through and keeps ahead of Alpenstrom
Edvardsen's stop sees him ahead of Copeman Vukcevic and Kederer
Vilela makes a move on Girard who drops one
De Boer abusing the extra grip he has to pass Hunsley
Kamikaze makes his stop
As does Jantsher
Which leaves De Boer to take the lead again
Kamikaze comes out third and behind Alpenstrom
Jantsher has 4th
We see Maverick pass McGregor who is yet to stop
Vukcevic loses out to Kederer for the final points position
Standings after the pit stops
Maverick trying to keep up the pace locks up
We see Edvardsen fly by McGregor who is suffering that all to familiar sinking feeling
As Copeman is the next man to make his attempt to get by the Australian
McGregor puts up a strong defence to hang on
But only to the end of the lap as Copeman is all over him
And takes the Australian who surely should pit soon
Time for another break as the coverage equipment (my laptop) needs to cool down from this red hot action

It's so damn frustrating. Again it only goes backwards, and that with the max possible boost points. I really don't know what else to say. I would have loved to take second and help Netherlands with that, too. But Team Switzerland simply has no luck anymore.

We are back and ready to bring you the next segment of the final round of the Nations Cup for season 2
We rejoin the action with McGregor losing his place to Edvardsen
Brilley comes back off his defensive line forcing Vilela to lock up
De Ja Vu as Copeman is all over the back of McGregor on the home straight
Making the pass at turn one
Kederer attempts to take McGregor around the outside of the sweeping left hander
Only to get out of shape and let Vukcevic tuck in behind McGregor and yoink his spot
Vukcevic pulls out alongside McGregor
And easily gets him on the brakes as McGregor on the old tyres locks up
In fact it was a nudge from Kederer that has him in trouble with Silvestre and Nikolov
Three abreast in the middle of the chicane
Kederer somehow comes out on top as Silvestre ends up behind Nikolov and loses out
Girard capitalises on this to make a move on Silvestre and has only Nikolov between him and the man trying to take his third in the championship

Copeman has been let down by a loose wheel and that is the end of his day and season

Girard makes the move on McGregor forcing the Aussie wide
But Nikolov cannot capitalise
Alpenstrom locks up as he is under increasing pressure from Kamikaze
McGregor goes semi defensive on the start finish straight
Both Nikolov and Silvestre are wanting a go at this
But no change this time around
Alpenstrom comes right across the circuit to try and stop Kamikaze
And it works this time
Silvestre now takes the view Nikolov had previously as Nikolov makes his move on McGregor
Silvestre having a go just a few corners on
McGregor is alongside and will not give it up easy but will have to
Kamikaze makes the move happen this time on Alpenstrom and that livens up the championship
McGregor makes a move back on Silvestre which makes a positive change to his race so far
Kamikaze is after the win chasing down De Boer
Silvestre retakes that place from McGregor he just left as he cannot do anything about the lack of pace
Kamikaze sets the fastest lap and steals that from De Boer
Kederer passes Vukcevic trying to make up the points he needs today
Johnson has to take a defensive line to Edvardsen letting him know he will not make this easy for the Finn
Same for De Boer as Kamikaze is right on the back of the Dutch car
Here are the standings though with pit stops to come
Which we have to interrupt that though as De Boer has gone defensive against Kamikaze who runs into the back of him
Drama as De Boer runs off the circuit and Kamikaze and Alpenstrom go through
Finishing touches on the standings
Kamikaze is the first to pit
Alpenstrom goes into the lead as Kederer is the next to pit
De Boer looks like he is struggling now as Jantsher is onto him

De Boer pits and looking to save his challenge in this final stint

Awesome coverage but a crap of a race as always. Bye bye Nations Cup with yet another crappy performance. S2 was very disappointing and we feel it is a good decision to leave the Nations Cup at least for a while.
Of course we also want to congratulate Team Sweden to the win of the championship. A well-deserved champion for sure.

Good coverage as always.
For the Portuguese team it was the only good thing from this two final rounds of the championship...
How can i spent over then 300 points in boost for qualifying and only get the 20th grind spot? How can i spent 500 in boost for the race and cross the finish line in 16th? Probably had finished in 18th if there wasn't two DNF...
This was too often over the season. If the performance stays this way for next season the Portuguese team will drop out of the series.
