Report
Ingo Gerstl won the race and clinched the Open Class title in the process. Likewise for Christopher Brenier who finished third in his class but this was enough for him to clinch the Formula title. The Austrian won the race at the Automotodrom Brno single-handedly and has succeeded Klaas Zwart as OPEN Class champion.

Christopher Höher after scoring his best-ever finish of second in yesterday's race had the misfortune of being black-flagged whilst in contention for race victory. Höher had stalled his car in the warm up lap, but regained all spots for the start, which is not allowed. He missed the Drive Through penalty and was consequently disqualified. “That’s really annoying, because I didn’t know that rule. It cost me the win, because my pace was good. Really annoying.”.

Luis Michael Dorrbecker seemed the only driver keeping his cool in the heat of Brno and took his maiden BOSS GP win. “It’s a great feeling. Yesterday was pretty bad for me, so this win is even better. Let’s go celebrate!”
