Front row starter PG Andersson ran wide at the first corner and dropped to last. Mattias Ekstrom ran in third early on but retired mid-race.
Reinis Nitiss claimed the last podium spot ahead of Andersson and Andreas Bakkerud.

Euro F3 - Pau: More problems for Dennis, while out front Giovinazzi wins the race comfortably from Gunther and Leclerc.
Stroll, Maini and Rosenqvist complete the top six, while after two or three bits of contact at the Turn 4 hairpin, previous race leader Dennis falls out of the points and pits at the end of the lap having dropped down to 22nd place.

ELMS - Imola: Safety car is out here and it's because the race-leading Jota Gibson, driven by Dolan, has shed some bodywork from the front-left corner. He heads to the pits and has had it replaced.
Euro F3 - Pau: Dennis continues to plummet down the order. Perhaps he damaged something on his car by hitting a kerb or a barrier somewhere?
Dennis has lost a bunch of places on that lap, and right now - on the final lap of the race - it looks marginal as to whether he will finish in the points.

Euro F3 - Pau: That problem for Dennis briefly backed Giovinazzi towards Gunther and Leclerc, but the new leader has pulled away to a comfortable gap now.
Dennis is holding up a queue of cars up the hill to Turn 3 - he's definitely got a problem in left-handers. His car is woefully slow turning left, but it seems OK when steering to the right.

Euro F3 - Pau: Heartbreak for Dennis, who is continuing to lap slowly, trying to salvage a result.
This, of course, is the race that carries the title of the historic Pau Grand Prix, so in some ways it's more than just a normal race win that has gone begging for Dennis.

Euro F3 - Pau: Dennis runs wide at Turn 3 to let Gunther and Leclerc through. Does he have a problem through left-handers? All of the positions he has lost have been through going wide in left-handers over the last lap or so.
Euro F3 - Pau: Giovinazzi slips past what seems to be a slowing Dennis in the final sector of the lap to take the lead.
Euro F3 - Pau: Dennis is having to use all the road at the moment, getting closer and closer to those ominous white-painted kerbs.
Giovinazzi launches his first attack into Turn 2, but Dennis forces him to the outside to hold the lead.
It's the same again up the hill into Turn 3, and again into the Turn 4 hairpin. Dennis is fighting for his life to hang on at the moment.

ELMS - Imola:Dolan has a lead of eight seconds over Badey, with Hirsch 16 seconds off first place.
Euro F3 - Pau: Giovinazzi closes to 0.2s, but he can't stay that close, and falls back to 0.4s behind Dennis on the following lap. 22 of 29 laps are in the books now - can Dennis hold on for three wins from three?
Euro F3 - Pau: Giovinazzi is now just 0.4s behind Dennis as we enter the final 10 laps. The question is, can he find anywhere to launch an attack, or is he happy to sit on the points for second and keep the pressure on just in case Dennis makes a mistake?
No change in the battle for third either - at the moment it seems as if Gunther just has to keep hitting his marks around the lap to keep Leclerc at bay. P5 Stroll is a fair way back after his impressive charge through the second half of the points runners.

Euro RX - Mettet: Jerome Grosset-Janin wins the European Rallycross Championship final.
He survived a dramatic first lap to later pass WRC 3 driver Ole Christian Veiby when the Norweigan took his joker on lap two.
Veiby finished second with Hungarian Tamas Karai in third. Belgian former WRC driver Francois Duval retired on the second lap.

Euro F3 - Pau: Giovinazzi won't let Dennis have a hat-trick easily - he's closed the gap down to 0.7s with 18/29 laps in the books.
World RX - Mettet: Heikkinen's team mate PG Andersson wins the second semi-final, but the story of the race was Petter Solberg who jumped the first attempted start, forcing him to take two joker laps as penalty.
Putting in a series of blisteringly fast laps, Solberg led off the line and took his joker on laps four and six, returning to the main circuit the second time behind Andersson and just in front of Mattias Ekstrom to claim second.
Anton Marklund, Davy Jeanney and Tord Linnerud miss out on a place in the final.

World RX - Mettet: Toomas Heikkinen wins the first semi-final at Mettet.
Pole sitter Johan Kristoffersson led early on but picked up a puncture and dropped to fifth by the end. The same fate befell Timmy Hansen who led on lap four before picking up his puncture.
Heikkinen won from OlsbergsMSE pair Andreas Bakkerud and Reinis Nitiss.

Euro F3 - Pau: The gap between the leaders continues to yo-yo, as Dennis moves it back up to 1.3s. Leclerc remains on the tail of Gunther, who has a little lock-up into the Turn 4 hairpin.
Euro F3 - Pau: Dennis continues to build his lead to 1.3s, although Giovinazzi responds next time by to get the gap back down to 1.0s.
Towards the bottom end of the points, Beretta is buried into the tyres at the final chicane. He's out of the car, which is now being lifted out of the way.

Euro F3 - Pau: Current top 10: Dennis, Giovinazzi, Gunther, Leclerc, Stroll, Pommer, Lorandi, Maini, Rosenqvist, Beretta.
Stroll is the one on the move at the moment, he's been on a charge in the last few laps.
Missing from the top 10 now is Albon, who has pulled into the pits.

ELMS Imola: Leader Tincknell heads into the pits and hands over to Dolan. Third-placed Hirsch has also brought the Greaves car in for fuel, but stays at the wheel.
Euro F3 - Pau: Dennis has nearly one second back to Giovinazzi now, who was in danger of falling into the clutches of the Gunther v Leclerc fight.
However, Leclerc has probably done Giovinazzi a favour by launching a series of attacks, which have forced Gunther into defensive mode again.

Euro F3 - Pau: Decent lap from Dennis, who extends his lead over Giovinazzi by two tenths to 0.7s. Leclerc has backed off a bit from Gunther, perhaps giving himself a breather after spending the first 10 laps tucked up under the rear wing of the German.
Euro F3 - Pau: Giovinazzi takes another tenth out of Dennis's lead, so the gap is down to 0.5s now between the leaders. Gunther and Leclerc are another couple of seconds back.
Euro F3 - Pau: Nobody is being put off by the narrow streets here - Pommer puts a spectacular move on Albon for fifth through the very fast Turn 1.
Leclerc needs to find something like that - he's bottled up behind Gunther still in the fight for third.
Giovinazzi has pinned Dennis back out front, they are covered by 0.6s at the moment with the Brit still in the lead.

ELMS Imola: Tincknell's lead for Jota is now 40 seconds over Badey in the TDS Racing ORECA and Hirsch in the Greaves Gibson. But TDS and Greaves have both made the first of their two driver changes, which Jota has yet to do, so a chunk of that lead will disappear at the next round of pitstops, when Tincknell is likely to hand over to Dolan.
Euro F3 - Pau: Decent first racing lap from Dennis - he's 0.7s clear of Giovinazzi. The race for third looks to be where the action is - Leclerc is on Gunther's tail.
Stroll's race is still busy, he's been swapping places with team-mate Rosenqvist in what is now a battle for ninth, with Lorandi getting away from them both.

Green flag
Euro F3 - Pau: Dennis backs the field up, and hits the gas before the final tricky chicane. That gives him a little gap to Giovinazzi, who reacts well, and they both leave Gunther trailling.
Not much action in the leading places, but Stroll tried to get around the outside of Maini into Turn 2, and after failing to make that stick he only just kept it out of the tyres.

Euro F3 - Pau: Sure enough, the message comes up - Safety car in this lap. Here we go...
Yellow flag
Euro F3 - Pau: Three laps in the book now and we're still circulating behind the safety car. The track looks pretty clear, so hopefully we'll be racing again soon.
Euro F3 - Pau: So, Dennis leads behind the safety car, ahead of Giovinazzi, Gunther, Leclerc, Albon, Pommer, Maini, Stroll, Lorandi and Rosenqvist. That's your top 10.
Yellow flag
Euro F3 - Pau: We've had all kinds of trouble in the first few corners. There was a shunt at the back of the field at Turn 2, and more trouble as those who did make it through the mess headed up the hill to Turn 3.
Sure enough, we have a safety car.

Thiriet has handed the TDS ORECA over to Ludo Badey and will cycle back through to second eventually, with the Greaves Gibson driven by Gary Hirsch just behind. The field is a little mixed up because some cars have changed drivers, others haven't.
