Race 2
Ralf ➡️ Wang

Qualifying:
Overall - 3rd
In class - 3rd

Results:
Overall - 7th
In class - 6th

Ralf dropped to 4th in the opening lap but heavy rain was causing other cars to spin since the entire filed was out on slick tyres. Ralf attempted an overtake but he had no grip at all because he was on slicks. Ralf then came in for wet tyre a lap later than the main pack but this did not count a their mandatory pitstop and staying out a lap more did not pay off either as they ended up coming out in 7th place. Ralf then came in to swap with Wang towards the end of the pit stop window. For the remainder of the race Wang remained in 7th which is the position the car finished in, 7th overall and 6th in the Pro-Am catergory.

It was an unlucky weekend for the team and hopefully they can bounce back for the last round in Shanghai.
