As the drivers battled it out with wheel-to-wheel duels and strategic pit stops, the competition heated up, culminating in a nail-biting finish that had spectators cheering for more.

Despite facing brake issues, Wittmann’s performance faltered, allowing Aitken and Rast to dominate the race with an impressive lead.
