Each of the eight teams taking part this week received points for their performances in Friday's head to head portion with Jameel Motorsport's second place combined with their second place in Thursday's time trial giving them 20 total points and moving them to the top of the overall standings. After Team STARD's last place finish in the time trial, their Friday win moved them up to just sixth place overall. The third and final day of the event will see the action return to the 6km off-road circuit with two four car races preceding the eight car final. (Production: David Grip)
