Post‑race, Martinius Stenshorne receives a 30‑second penalty for serving his mandatory stop under Virtual Safety Car.

Formula 2 rules prohibit fulfilling the mandatory stop under VSC. He is removed from the classification and listed as DNF.

Stenshorne’s 30-second sanction reclassifies him as DNF and reshapes the points.

Mari Boya, Rafael Villagomez, and Sebastian Montoya also retire. Nineteen drivers take classification.

Strategy and execution prove decisive, with varied pit windows and tyre use creating swings. That emphasis echoes Noel Leon’s pole strategy earlier in the weekend.

Alex Dunne finishes sixth, ahead of Noel Leon, Laurens van Hoepen, Joshua Dürksen, and Roman Bilinski. Their gains underline the penalty’s ripple effect on both standings.

Goethe claims third and the fastest lap bonus to cap a strong weekend.

The Spielberg round supports the Formula 1 programme, adding depth for fans. It complements the Austrian Grand Prix grid storyline.

With few rounds left, gaps remain slim. Tsolov and Mini set the benchmark. Form in Austrian GP F2 qualifying underlines how narrow margins decide outcomes.

Inthraphuvasak’s alternate call secures fifth and ten valuable points.
