Circuit de Nevers Magny-Cours — Grand Prix
2D telemetry replay — the 61-minute race compressed to 90 seconds.
By the Numbers
Yannick Wonnenberg
Took pole, set the fastest lap, won by +1.48 s after 37 laps — the closest WCT win of the season. Best lap: 1:36.791.
Yannick Wonnenberg
The pole-sitter also set the quickest lap of the race: 1:36.791 on lap 20 in the Lamborghini. Kevin Osiewacz was within 80 thousandths.
1 DNF, 2 DNS
Only Chistian Schlosser (P21, 34 laps) failed to finish; Maurice Becker and Antonio Cursio could not start (ISP outage / wheelbase failure).
Mike Girenz
The cleanest classified drive of the day — zero incident points across 37 laps, home in P8.
Christoph Kiesel
20 incident points after an early off and a drive-through penalty for repeated track limits — still classified P20.
4 short cautions
Four brief yellow-flag periods during the race — all under 3 seconds — the new iRaceControl restart procedure delivered a clean start with no first-corner chaos.
☀️ Dry, 27 °C track
Air 21.0 °C · Track 27.0 °C · Skies partly cloudy · Dry (wetness 1). Warm summer evening; several drivers reported cockpit overheating during the broadcast.
Data Views
Top 8 highlighted — the pit cycle around lap 20 reshuffles the field, then the top three converge for a 2.5 second finish.
Clean-lap distribution per driver, pit-affected and slow laps excluded via iRaceControl's slow_lap markers. Yannick Wonnenberg had the tightest pace window (stdev 0.53 s over 34 clean laps) — pole, fastest lap, win and most consistent.
Each orange bar = one completed pit stop, width proportional to time in pit. The mandatory pit window (highlighted, ~minute 34–38) is where the bulk of the field made their single 33–37 s strategic stop. Long bars (Klaus Oberlaender 200 s, Christoph Kiesel 187 s, Chistian Schlosser 135 s) are damage-repair time, not strategic choices.
Every on-track incident with exact race-time and type. Most of the drama played out in the final 5 minutes — Benjamin Schlosser’s late collisions (connectivity), Dennis Ulli Richter’s spin trio, Chistian Schlosser’s 4-spin sequence into his DNF. Christoph Kiesel’s drive-through black flag is visible at minute 30. The top 4 finishers got through almost incident-free.
F1-style position track per lap. The pit-cycle reshuffle around lap 20-23 is visible as the big crisscross; the top trio reconvenes by lap 25.
Green = overtakes made, red = passes lost. Dirk Bolte made the most net gains (+7), Benjamin Schlosser was passed most often (net -8, connectivity-driven). The Speed Monkeys 1-2 (Wonnenberg + Zocher) finished with net 0 each — pace control, not racecraft.
Where on the circuit each incident happened. The Lycée-and-Chateau-d’Eau complex (upper right) and the technical S-section (centre) absorbed the most drama.
Time lost vs. the field’s fastest fuel-only stop (Mike Zocher, 32.9 s). Wonnenberg and Richter only 1 s slower; Mike Girenz lost 8.7 s in the box — a chunk of his race-pace advantage gone in 30 seconds.
Race Highlights
Yannick Wonnenberg made it the perfect WCT round in the data: pole, fastest lap, win. But this was a fight, not a procession. Mike Zocher — teammate at Speed Monkeys — shadowed him for the entire 75 minutes and never let the gap stretch beyond a couple of seconds. After both pitted on the same lap around the half-hour mark, Lukas Zörlaut (NEON Sim Sports Blue, Mercedes-AMG) closed the leading trio back together inside a 2.5-second window and stayed there until the flag.
The hidden story was Kevin Osiewacz’s pace: starting P6, he set the second-fastest lap of the entire race (1:36.868, just 77 thousandths off the winner) and recovered P5. Behind him Mike Girenz drove a flawless race — zero incidents over 37 laps and P8 — while Justin Christiansen headed the AM class home from P9 overall in the BMW, ahead of NEON Sim Sports Red team-mates Max Coldron and Fritz Morawetz. A complete team result for both Speed Monkeys (Pro 1-2) and NEON Sim Sports (Pro P3, plus the entire AM podium).
