Notes

  1. ^ – Ten grid position penalty for Laine (ignoring yellow flag during free practice); the same penalty to Haryanto, Melker and Hylkema (causing collisions during Race 2 in Valencia).[4]
  2. ^ – Most drivers elected to start the warm-up lap with slicks. Due to increasing rain, several drivers pitted for wet-weather tyres from the warm-up lap.[5]
  3. ^ – Stöckinger was given a 30 seconds time penalty after the race for ignoring yellow flags.[6]
  4. ^ – Zimin was excluded from the race results because of forcing Laine off the track; Zimin was also suspended from Race 2.[6]

Standings after the round
  • Note: Only the top five positions are included for both sets of standings.
gollark: SGNS *does* do some of the GPS requesting over SPUDNET websocket, that's how it's fairly secure.
gollark: Since occasionally I do need actual fairly secure things.
gollark: I design a lot of random secure-ish systems on top of it, like SPUDNET and SGNS.
gollark: Well, sure.
gollark: So unless I bother to write a PR for anonymized GPS, people who don't go to the extra effort of writing their own implementation (as far as I'm aware nobody does so far) will be trackable by ID.
