Double pole
Two drivers managed to set the exactly same time, namely Aidan Keranen and Jack Hunsley. The McLaren driver set it first though, thus will start from pole. Their teammates are in second row, just switched order. Ancevski with a strong 5th after his win last round, alongside his last season teammate Old Wolf. Williams drivers Utzer and Buurlage are in 4th row, Engberink and Martins complete the top 10.


Special case today, while we had same times before it never was for pole as far as I can remember. Problem is that there's a small bug in GP4, means the one who set the time first will start second (above was just for roleplaying). For this reason pole reward will be handed to both drivers.

Hunsley wins in Austria
Jack Hunsley has taken his second win of the season, which now has also put him back in the lead of the championship. Milos Ancevski took another podium with second, while Tobi Kederer took his first points of the season with third.
Keranen couldn't defend first at the start and dropped to second behind Kederer. Hunsley dropped to 5th behind Ancevski and Wolf, Foro held 6th ahead of both Williams. Three retirements in the opening laps, Wolf's gearbox failed in the 2nd lap, Black retired with an oil leak in lap 3, and Keranen too suffered a gearbox failure in lap 5. Kederer and Ancevski started to open a gap to the rest, being on a 3 stop strategy they made use of their light cars. Next retirement in lap 11 when Buurlage stopped his Williams with a water leak. Top 6 before the first stops were Kederer, Ancevski, Hunsley, Utzer, Sigoulakis and Diehl.
Hunsley briefly took the lead before handing it back to his teammate after his first stop. Utzer had retired with a puncture in the meantime. Running order around the halfway point was Kederer leading ahead of Ancevski, Hunsley, Diehl, Sigoulakis and Lintner. Next round of stops allowed Hunsley to retake the lead, having a 10 second gap to Kederer and Ancevski. Goddard, Foro and Diehl held the remaining points positions.
Both 2 and 3 stoppers made their final stop within a couple of laps. Hunsley kept the lead, still some 10 seconds ahead of his teammate and Ancevski. Minardis of Diehl and Goddard followed in 4th and 5th, Foro was in 6th. With a few laps to go Ancevski got past Kederer for 2nd, a bit further back Lintner passed Foro to take his first point of the season for 6th.


FIA Press Conference
@Jack Hunsley: Your pace seemed better than last few races, did the team bring some new parts?
@Milos: Another decent result, describe the pass for 2nd place
@Diehl: Do you think you could've snatched 3rd with 1 or 2 laps more?
