The opening race of the 16 round-season was an eventful debut for the new track. The circuit had only seen one race prior in the 7 days of F1 during the winter break so was very new to the drivers who were evidently not sleeping after the 4 month off-season. The track saw the first appearance of 7 drivers: ~~LakeBerries~~, 32Vinotto, Capworm, Duck, SimplyTired, Blake and Leylox, all but one of whom competed for the trivial points.

The opening race of the 16 round-season was an eventful debut for the new track. The circuit had only seen one race prior in the 7 days of F1 during the winter break so was very new to the drivers who were evidently not sleeping after the 4 month off-season. The track saw the first appearance of 7 drivers: Lakeberries, 32Vinotto, Capworm, Duck, SimplyTired, Blake and Leylox, all but one of whom competed for the trivial points.

Qualifying saw some of the closest driving ever with just 0.22 seconds between P1 and P5, FatihAR seemingly back to the grind, the Genoese driver with Ferrari's bragging rights as he edged P1 by just 0.01, surpassing GabeTM in the later hours of quali. Lakeberries was quick on her debut, securing P10 in the early part of qualifying and holding pole position for over 20 hours until being dethroned by 32Jeelow. Jeelow, one of the eyecatchers at the end of the 2023 season, only managed to find P7 on Saturday however, due to mechanical issues at the Acceleron garage, was unable to begin Sundays race.

As the lights fell out in Rostov, it was Fatih who lead into the first corner, seperating himself from the rest of the grid. The Quantum duo were first to pit, Bubu and Gabe double-stacking. It was only when, after a number of laps, they were able to pass Fatih who was pitting himself placing the drivers in p1 and p2 respectively. Corgo was able to pass both the Ferrari drivers come the third quarter of the race, the Ferrari pair unable to find pace, Fatih demoted to P6 after losing a battle with F1rret towards the end of the grand prix. So, as the chequered flag fell, Quantum was able to see their 1 - 2 with Bubisen climbing the ranks from P7 all the way to P2. Gabe finished over 20 seconds away from Corgo in P3, the BMW driver from Cascadia putting in the effort followed by Kravat who's position was usurped by the Cascadian. F1rret had his best result, a solid P5 for the rookie Patagonian driver obtaining more points in this race than in the entirety of the 2023 season quickly followed by Fatih who, due to some unfortunately placed backmarkers, fell back. Behind him came Semicolon getting the Colombian teams first points of the season. The second Patagón rookie, ~~LakeBerries~~ came 8th in her debut race after passing Snova, who finished P9. Finally, driver of the day, AlpenSnow gained Warsaw Pegasus' third ever point following their only point finish in the last race of the 2023 season, an incredible start for Pegasus!

As the qualifying lights went out, it was F1rret on top, the driver from South America scoring a 55.63 early in the Sunday, an impressive first pole position for the driver who started in Coats last year. He was followed by fellow South American 32Jeelow who was just 0.08 seconds behind in the 3rd consecutive close season. However, due to repeated boat failures, he was grounded for the race for the 2nd time in 3 races. Ferrari was unable to continue their pole streak with the Genoan in red pushing his 56.04 to the second row along side BMW driver Empress Corgo, still boasting her incredible race last year in which she fought to P4 in just her 3rd race. Following them came the rookie in yellow with her best qualifying position so far at P5, able to beat championship contender Bubu who started next to her in P6. Behind them was the second Indochina driver, Fabinostalgia able to secure a P7 for the teams first home race, the second being Medan a month later. The driver from Rostov edging Acceleron driver Semicolon who was unable to qualify until the early Sunday. Finally on the 5th row came the driver from Warsaw, KrisusQ, his impressive season highlighted in his qualifying lap, 0.37 seconds ahead of the second Ferrari driver MrKravat.

As the lights went out in Malay, it was F1rret who was able to secure his lead followed by teammate Corgo who edged the Ferrari driver in Jeelow's absence. The race however came to a halt when Turkish invaders raided the track causing a red flag on lap 10. On the second restart, a full restart was voted in allowing a BMW front row. The race was quickly red flagged again just 3 laps in with the BMW duo forced to concede their second dominant performance. After around 40 minutes, the full race began with the German-team duo able to maintain their positions until ~~LakeBerries~~ passed both drivers when they pitted. MrKravat was able to take 1st position when the Patagón pitted the next lap but conceded his position to pit granting the pole-sitter P1 once again. A late pit from the BMW team gave Lake provisional victory again, leaving the other Patagón to a miserable P7. Both Lake and Kravat pitted on lap 17 putting KrisusQ and Bubu, who had pitted at the beginning of the grand prix, in the first and second positon, the Hungarian driver able to jump the Pole leading into lap 18. Fatih stepped up his comeback in the later stages of the race, gaining 4 positions in 5 laps placing him in a respectable P3, surpassing the Polish driver in the later part of the grand prix. Lower in the field, Kravat followed in the footsteps of his Genoese teammate making 2 passes to put him in P4 yet was repassed by F1rret who was able to make 4 overtakes in the lap however conceded his position to the Keen Corgo on lap 29.

So, as the chequered flag fell, it was Bubisen able to maintain his first after a great strategy from Quantum sent him from P10 to first setting him in P1 on the drivers championship. Fatih's comeback was also not missed, the Scarlett boat granting Fatih a P2, his best position of the year so far. The biggest surprise was Krisus, the rookie able to get his team their first podium after coming P9 last year with only 2 points. Behind followed the BMW's, an uhappy performance for the German team who were looking at a 1 - 2 before the red flags. Behind came the second Ferrari followed by Indochina's rookie, ~~LakeBerries~~, second Polish driver AlpenSnow, Second Indochinese driver Fabi, and Bobbobster able to get a single point for the Quantum team with his P10. Quantum continues to dominate, the team over 30 points to BMW in second with Ferrari just 5 points behind them. Likewise, Acceleron is just 5 points ahead of Warsaw Pegasus in P4 and P5 respectively. Quantum is also dominating in drivers with Bubisen with almost double the points of rookie F1rret in P2. Alike in the team standings, the BMW driver was followed by Ferrari's Kravat who's performance on Sunday put him just 4 points behind, just 1 point ahead of GabeTM who stood out the GP in place of teamboss Bobbobster. He is only 2 points ahead of Corgo who slightly edges Fatih out of the top 5 despite his P4 finish in Indochina.
