Race

[edit]

The race was stopped twice during the course of the event with red flags. The first stoppage was after the crash of the #7 Toyota Gazoo Racing entry, which required extensive time for car recovery and barrier repair. The second stoppage occurred in the final hour due to lightning strikes and heavy rain showers in the area. The race was ultimately ended early due to the weather conditions.
