Team Brake Fade received a 25-second penalty for avoidable contact, moving from third to fifth behind Longhorn Racing Chrome and SimHQ Motorsports WHITE.

GT3 Team Championship

That leaves the two teams dead even at 67 points entering St. Petersburg — and each now owns one victory and one second-place finish.

GT3 finale: For Moradness and Quokka, the practical equation is now simple — finish ahead of the other at St. Petersburg. Team Brake Fade remains mathematically alive on 54 points, but its path requires a finale victory and both 67-point leaders to finish 10th or worse.

Behind the title fight, PCA Sim Racing GT3 remains fourth on 51. SOELPEC Precision Racing and Longhorn Racing Chrome are tied at 50, with each owning one third-place result and one 11th-place result through the first two rounds. SimHQ Motorsports WHITE moves to 47 points after its promotion to fourth at Red Bull Ring and sits ahead of ThumbTech Motorsport on countback thanks to the stronger best finish.

50+ GT3 Championship

The Team Brake Fade and Moradness penalties do not directly change the 50+ scoring, but SimHQ's promotion to fourth does. James Andrew receives 28 Round 2 points instead of 26, increasing his championship lead.
