Cao 🇨🇳 had some mixed heats with front running pace and lined up 17th for the Main final but become involved in crashes ending any Hope’s.
Umid Alli Hussian 🇦🇪 had pretty good speed in the dry but coming from Dubai his experience in the wet was little and made the heat races a challenge.

Anshul Ghandi 🇮🇳 again lacked some experience in the slippery cold conditions but in full wet or full dry showed some good speed, considering only starting testing 3 days after everyone else due to a race in Dubai.
Mini:
Travis Teo 🇲🇾 the Malaysian driver only 8 years old one of the youngest in the field showed his speed in Qualifying 8th in the dry, a great effort at this level. Unfortunately the heats would be wet and with no real wet experience was a steep learning curve.
