Overview

• Ayhancan Güven claimed his third victory of 2025 by overtaking both Thomas Preining and polesitter Jordan Pepper on the last lap after their contact.
• Heavy rain flooded the track before the start, everyone began on wet tyres, and early switches to slicks rewarded some while others lost time off track.
• A late spin by Nicolas Baert brought out a safety car, and Preining’s post-restart charge to the lead unraveled with a misjudged defensive move.
• Pepper finished second with Jack Aitken third and Preining fourth, followed by Jules Gounon in fifth as Lucas Auer salvaged tenth.
• The title fight tightened as Pepper and Aitken share the lead on 145 points with Auer third on 143, and a second Sachsenring race scheduled for Sunday.
