Zhincong Li and Titus Sherlock win Race 2 of Lamborghini Super Trofeo Asia at Monza, converting sixth on the grid into victory despite a five‑second penalty in treacherous wet conditions.

The Racegraph pairing absorb the time sanction for an unsafe re-entry at Roggia, build the margin they need, and control the closing stages with disciplined pace and limited risk.

Heavy rain forces a safety-car start. After four exploratory laps, racing begins, immediately rewarding those who manage tyre temperature, spray visibility, and braking references into Monza’s chicanes.

From pole, Team VSR’s Chris van der Drift dictates the early phase, resisting Jonathan Cecotto’s pressure. Cecotto hands over to William Tregurtha with the title fight delicately poised.

Tregurtha fends off Marcin Wisniewski in a tense finale, secures second place, and with it the PRO championship alongside Cecotto. The margin is narrow, but the execution is clean.

Sherlock’s stint is decisive. He carves through traffic, capitalises on rivals’ errors, and inherits clear air after Andre Couto retires following contact at Lesmo 2.

Conditions amplify attrition. Craig Lowndes? Not here. Instead, VSR’s Ben Kingsford slides to sixth from a promising platform, yet PRO‑AM points with van der Drift still prove sufficient.

The LC title goes to Weeraborwornpong of Siamgas Corse, who finishes just shy of the podium. Buncharoen secures the AM championship with a measured run to fifth.

The decisive factors are stint timing, traffic management, and restraint under pressure. Racegraph’s call to push early post-stops creates the buffer needed to negate the penalty.

The World Finals weekend at Monza continues, with multiple categories still in play. Attention already tilts toward the broader calendar and off‑season programmes.

Series momentum carries into future plans, with teams eyeing the 2027 Winter Series calendar for development mileage and continuity.

Comparable challenges often surface at the Sepang International Circuit, where heat, rain, and long straights place a similar premium on braking stability and tyre discipline.
