Two hard fought races were held at Okayama. Marc Beckhaus launched his Undiecar career off with a good start by planting his car squarely on pole position with a stunning 1:16.229 time. Only Olivier Dean2 and Jake Conway also managed to break into the 1:16s, followed by championship leader Nikolay Ladushkin.

Marc Beckhaus followed up his pole position by leading every lap, but followed home very closely by Nikolay and Olivier. An incident between Ramon Regalado and newcomer John M Roberts resulted in a protest against John, but review by the helpful folks over at the iRacing Drivers World Facebook group resulted in the protest being rejected and John getting off with just a warning.

Race 2, the reversed grid race, featured a big crash at the first corner when Daniel Wright4 rear ended Ramon Regalado who earned a bonus point for the most spectacular crash after pulling out of the pits a few laps later and sommersaulting in the air after inadvertently slowing in front of Ryan Hellyer who was trying to lap him. An excellent battle occurred later in the race, and was finally won by Jake Conway, with Marc Beckhaus, Kleber Bottaro Moura and championship leader Nikolay Ladushkin following in behind.

Ramon Regalado was awarded a bonus point for most spectacular crash.
