Before the start of the race, the rain started to descend upon the circuit. Some drivers opted to pull into the pits for wet tyres before the start of the race, whilst others gambled on the rain dissipating and track drying up. However, even before the first lap was finished, the drivers on wet tyres had overtaken most of the pack. Soon, everyone was struggling in the tricky conditions, with drivers such as Mark Skaife spinning off the circuit. Though, whilst plagued by the spin, Skaife began to charge up the field and soon found himself bearing down on race leader, Glenn Seton. However, it was not enough and Glenn Seton had won his first race of the 1994 season with Skaife in second and Alan Jones in third.
With the rain gone, a different race played out. Though the damp track conditions caught out drivers such as Larry Perkins and Alan Jones, it was plain sailing for Glenn Seton as he took his second win of the season with Peter Brock in second and Mark Skaife in third.
