A dry, to really wet to damp and greasy race to end day 1 of Round 6 of the 2024-25 Hi-Q Components NZ Formula First Championship has been taken out by series leader Chris Symon after starting 3rd.

One (one might be generous) lap of dry running was quickly halted by a quick downpour of rain forcing some tenacious driving from our drivers.

Liam Nicholson secured P2 after Keiano Weir took a last lap tour through the gravel at turn 7, forcing him to settle for the final podium position.

Top Rookie swings the way of Cooper Prout in P6, continuing his impressive increasing form.

Two more races tomorrow before it’s all eyes on our final round.
