Wind followed team orders to go for their second pit, allowing ameberyl into clean air. Double contact from lag on lap 23 saw ameberyl fall from second to fourth behind pwnings and Hill whilst Faxeo continued to struggle with backmarkers ahead with the Championship leader getting chain kicked and passed by multiple backmarkers leading to him taking his final pitstop. He left the pit shortly behind pwnings who went into the race lead for the first time of the season. Sepl retired with 5 laps to go after failing to make progress on track whilst teammate Faxeo got stuck in traffic and pushed into tandem with Hill for second whilst losing a gap to pwnings in the lead, Hill temporarily taking second from Faxeo. | Wind followed team orders to go for their second pit, allowing ameberyl into clean air.
