Attrition: Sim Race Campus - 2021s2 - Open Wheel Series - Round 1 - Silverstone - Incident Review

Johnny Bell survives at Silverstone to take the first win of the season. Logan Szyjkowski paced the field in qualifying more than 0.5s ahead of Ben Schaut. Szyjkowski and Schaut pulled away with Schaut able to get to the lead on lap three. The two battled for a majority of the first stint until the two made contact at turn one forcing each to pit for repairs.

Nicholas Morelli and Johnny Bell had their own race going on for third, but the two would now have the opportunity to challenge for the lead. Morelli ran wide at turn one on the restart which allowed Bell through, but the two nearly made contact. Morelli stayed close but spun exiting Chapel later in the lap gifting Bell a sizable lead. Meanwhile, Szyjkowski and Schaut both made it back on track.

A few laps later Morelli ran into the back of Adin All-Vecchione which forced Morelli to retire. All-Vecchione would get his car repaired and finish the race.
