- Friday 21 August

Practice 1
The only practice of the weekend starts damp and dries out, with the odd spin along the way. The final runs bunch the front-runners within a few tenths.
3 out of 10, Skip it -
Sprint Qualifying
Three teams trade the top spot across the segments, and less than a tenth covers the leading group at the end. Hundredths also decide the midfield cut-offs.

Sprint
A static sprint with very few position changes after the start and little real wheel-to-wheel action. The rain holds off until the cars have finished.
3 out of 10, Skip it -
Qualifying
Rain threatens throughout the shootout and arrives during the final runs, while the top times keep moving. Q1 and Q2 bring tight eliminations too.

Race
A damp track, a first-lap red flag and a messy restart in front of a packed farewell crowd. Then a long strategic battle with bold passing in the final third.
