Rosenqvist steals victory from Kirchhöfer who extends championship lead

Felix Rosenqvist took victory in the second race of the weekend at Zolder, ahead of pole sitter and championship leader Marvin Kirchhöfer and RUSSIAN TIME driver Victoria Desai who closed the podium.

It wasn't a easy win for Felix though: during the first 8 laps, the swedish driver kept always Kirchhöfer in check, finally making the move for the lead in lap 8 and going to take victory after Kirchhöfer got released in the traffic, and a blistering stop by Falik Arrows. Desai fought hard and nails with Lukas Zuber all race long, but eventually prevailed ahead of the frenchman, who finished in 4th place. Gianluigi Pazzini rounded up the top 5, although both him and Jayleen Mori must be disappointed with themselves, after getting held up by a combination of Waisale Serevi, Raul Souto Maior and Tanner Jason and eventually finishing just a couple of seconds adrift from 3rd place. Mori did indeed finish in 6th place, ahead of Colton Herta who finished in 7th after a disappointing qualifying session, Max Defourny who finished again in points, Sophia Floersch who came from 20th place on the grid to 9th and Samora Mondlane who rounded up the points paying positions.

But the minor points positions wouldn't have ended like that if it wasn't for a incident on lap 21 out of the 25. Dutch Beitske Visser locked up into turn 2 and ran wide into the gravel and rejoined straight into the path of J.C. Wolf, who seemed set to take Scuderia Aqua's first points of the season, and both cars crashed out. The Formula 2 stewards didn't waste time, and after Visser's shenanigans at Japan II and Zolder I, handed her a weekend ban to be served at Singapore.

Race Results
IIDOTR: Sophia Floersch - Great job to salvage points from that low position on the grid.
ROTR: Beitske Visser - Another mistake costs her and her team points.
Stewards Report:
Due to dangerous driving, Beitske Visser has been handed a one race weekend ban by the stewards.
T.K. Wolf is handed a 5 place grid penalty for having to switch gearbox between races.

Due to Salamander beeing away, and Jerry de Boer (reserve driver) beeing racing in AR3.5, Phil McCracken will be racing in the KitKat Warriors car at Singapore.

Desai wins amongst unreliability festival
One of the most common sights at Singapore over the past few years its been present in the Formula One is unreliability, with the high temperature and high humidity taking a toll, not only in the driver, but also in the car. The first race of the weekend of F2 proved, once again, this, with 10 component failures over the course of the race (six engine failures, three brake failures and one collapsed suspension), and another in qualifying.

Some of the victims included championship leader Marvin Kirchhöfer, who after getting 2nd on the grid with a dead heat with Felix Rosenqvist for pole (the swede getting it through the virtue he set a time earlier in the session), saw him get pushed off into turn 1 and then have an engine failure before the first lap was over, which result in João António Soares having to take evasive maneuvers and the portuguese driver crashed, and the field was down to 28 cars before the first lap was over. Then followed two more engine failures, one for Miguel Silva on the main straight and one for Max Defourny coming through the middle sector, a brake failure for debutant in F2 under the FIA banner Phil McCracken, another engine failure and for Alexander Obolensky (who'd alredy gotten a gearbox failure in qualifying).

Up front, meanwhile, Felix Rosenqvist, who had not pitted yet, was leading by a good marging and seemed set to jump the others to take victory, until a brake wire failure saw him stop coming through the Sinpapore Sling, and we saw the two fastest drivers of the weekend having retired. This let Victoria Desai into the race lead, with Colton Herta chasing her and Judd McAllister (who hadn't pitted), with the american taking the lead for 3 laps, before his tyres gave away and allowed Victoria Desai to come through and take victory in the race closest to her home nation. Herta hanged on for 2nd place, with Sophia Floersch rounding up the top 3, closing the gap to 15 points to Marvin Kirchhöfer.

Lukas Zuber keeps his strong run of results, finishing in 4th place, with Ólafur Ragnar Hannesson scoring a 5th place for Hilmer. Samora Mondlane finished 6th, Josh Carlisle is back in the points with a 7th place, with Tuomas Suomanen scoring RonDen's first points of the season in 8th place. Rounding up the points paying positions were Jason Hamilton and Tanner Jason, with the american scoring Scuderia Aqua's first points of the year, which means now every team has scored at least a point over the course of the year.

After Rosenqvist's retirement, Emilio Boni, T.K. Wolf, Waisale Serevi and Pyotr Mikoyan would also face mechanical problems, with Jayleen Mori and Alexandre Dorval beeing involved in a crash in lap 15, when Mori got spinned coming through the final corner and Dorval crashed into the back of the micronesian driver.

IIDOTR: Ólafur Ragnar Hannesson - Phenomenal pace in the old tyres saw him take 5th place, and almost a podium.

Rosenqvist wins amongst mayhem at Singapore
The first race at Singapore was marked by unrelability by the F2 chassis/engine combination, with the high temperatures and high humidity playing into factor for the high unreability seen. And while the second race around Marina Bay still had some unreability, the race was marked by a high number of incidents involving multiple drivers.

During the initial laps of the race, Felix Rosenqvist fought Victoria Desai for the race lead, with the only notable accident beeing Emilio's Boni retirement, when he lost the rear trying for an overtake on Kirchhöfer for 4th place, and eventually got collected by Hannesson, with the icelandic driver losing his front wing in the process. Then a couple of laps later, Sophia Floersch made a mistake at the same corner and also lost her front wing. Up front, Marvin Kirchhöfer had moved into 2nd place and was ready to pass Rosenqvist when the unthinkable happened.

Rosenqvist decided it was time to come into the pits, but Kirchhöfer was down his inside. Rosenqvist did not see the german going for the move into the final corner, and a collision between the two happened. Rosenqvist held the car, but Kirchhöfer's front wing detached itself from the car, and he had to run a full lap without it. Rosenqvist still came out leader of the cars that had pitted, and when the run settled down he lead Pazzini and Desai by 3 seconds with the two cars behind chasing. By this points, Tuomas Suomanen had joined the retirement list when Hailton Fidelis took him out into the final corner, Colton Herta also retired with a gearbox problem and Pyotr Mikoyan and Samora Mondlane had an engine problem and were also forced to retire, with Mondlane running 4th at the time. Then on lap 16, the true chaos began.

Coming into the final sector, Gigi Pazzini was chasing Rosenqvist when he suddenly slowed down. Desai, running right behind the italian, had nowhere to go but into the back of the Trueba driver, and lost her front wing. Pazzini's car was left stranded in the middle of the racetrack, and the cars behind had to take evasive maneuvers, and the order suddenly switched! Drivers like Soares or McAllister were up into the top 5, fighting for points! The confusion was so big that, Floersch and Hannesson who at one point were running 20 seconds behind the pack, were now 11th and 9th respectivelly! Up front, Rosenqvist took advantage of the mayhem behind and took victory, adding 15 more points to his tally, after starting from pole position. Luckilly for him, the race was 20 laps long, and his suspension collapsed in the victory lap!

Behind Felix, a great fight happened, with Lukas Zuber just edging out in a drag race Emma Kickert for 2nd place, the first podium for K-Mart Holden this year and her first podium in Formula 2. Max Defourny finished in 4th place, with Judd McAllister hanging to take the best result of the season so far for RonDen, with a 5th place. Miguel Silva finished in 6th place, with Dorval, Hamilton, Floersch and Hannesson (who had an engine failure in the cooldown lap) rounding up the points paying positions. Obolensky and Kirchhöfer also retired from the race, with the germany championship leader scoring 0 points this weekend.

First victory for Gillet in disaster for MRT
There has been, throghout motorsport history, multiple accounts of drivers losing out on victory by a small error. During the first race of the 5th round of the Formula 2 World Championship, MRT driver T.K. Wolf joined that list of drivers.

But first qualifying. Due to the enormous ammount of grid penalties coming from Singapore, we could expect some shake ups throghout the grid. This didn't stop Felix Rosenqvist of taking his third consecutive pole position though, as he beated Kirchhöfer to it and Sophia Floersch.

Felix Rosenqvist indeed held the lead until he pitted on lap 8, but by now, three drivers, who had pitted on lap 3 and 4, were jumping everyone: Alexandre Dorval, T.K. Wolf and Gianluigi Pazzini. And when everyone pitted, that was indeed the order that stayed. The last person to pit was Beitske Visser, who took advantage of what were going to report now to still finish in 5th place.

Pazzini overtook T.K. Wolf and then started chasing Alexandre Dorval too, passing him for the lead. Dorval tyres seemed to drop off a bit compared to his rivals, and Wolf passed him as well. But on the next lap after Pazzini took what was the de facto race lead, his car came to a hault with a broken suspension, and handed the lead to T.K. Wolf when Visser pitted. But what happened after can only be described as a moment of sheer stupidity.

Wolf took the lead, and roughly 10 seconds after he got said lead, he lost the car coming through T2 and went into the wall, ending his race on the spot. The MRT boys couldn't believe what had just happened. Visser took advantage of the yellows flags caused by Wolf's accident and got out in 6th place, eventually climbing into 5th.

With no one close enough to him, Alexandre Dorval crossed the finish line to take his first victory of the season and Gillet's first victory in F2 since Alessandro Lucarelli won the Belgian Grand Prix in 2016. Lukas Zuber continues his great run of form by finishing in 2nd place, with Victoria Desai rounding up the podium position.
Sophia Floersch finished in 4th place, with Beitske Visser in 5th place. Championship leader Marvin Kirchhöfer finished in 6th, with pole-sitter Felix Rosenqvist in 7th. Tuomas Suomanen finished in 8th, equaling his best result of the year, with James Morgan scoring his first points of the season in 9th. Miguel Silva finished in 10th place.

IIDOTR: Alexandre Dorval - Great pace combined with great strategy takes you to great things.

Kirchhöfer back on stop step ahead of storming Floersch

Marvin Kirchhöfer has taken victory in the second race of the weekend at Karjala. The german driver, who grabbed his 7th pole position of the year, dominated the race from start to finish pretty much, handling traffic in fantastic way to cross the finish line 1.3 seconda ahead of a storming Sophia Floersch, who came from a low 17th on the grid to finish 2nd. Beitske Visser in the other KitKat car finished in 3rd place.

Kirchhöfer led until his early pistop, in lap 4, and eventually kept it together coming through th pack as others pitted. It was a fantastic drive from the Himer MP driver.

Emilio Boni was the other star of the race, as the Trueba driver started in a low 21st and came to finish in 4th place, combining great place with good strategy, ahead of the Gillet's of Defourny and Dorval. Felix Rosenqvist finished once again in 7th place, with Samora Mondlane, Miguel Silva and Colton Herta rounding up the points paying positions.

IIDOTR: Emilio Boni - Floersch might have scored a podium, but Boni was even more impressive.

Rosenqvist dominates to close gap on Kirchhöfer

Felix Rosenqvist won the first of the weekend races at Donington Park, where F1, F2 and F3 are using the National layout. The swede driver started from pole position, and led 19 out of the 32 laps to take victory, 4 seconds ahead of Beitske Visser, who continues her great run of results since her return from her ban.

On track actually, Lukas Zuber finished 2nd, but the french driver did not pit during the race, and got disqualified. The same happened to Waisale Serevi, who finished 18th on track, and also got disqualified.

Closing the podium places was Colton Herta, as the american driver took his 3rd podium of the year. Gianluigi Pazzini finished in 4th place, with Jason Hamilton in 5th. 6th place went to another storming drive by Ólafur Ragnar Hannesson, who despite struggles in qualifying pace over the year, he really comes along come race day, as he raced from 23rd on the grid to 6th in the end. Kirchhöfer finished behind his team-mate due to a bad pitstop by Hilmer, in 7th place, with finally T.K. Wolf beeing back in points paying positions, the first time since Germany I. Max Defourny and Sophia Floersch rounded up the points paying positions.

The biggest disappointment of the race came from J.C. Wolf. The austrian driver qualified a mighty impressive 3rd on the grid, but trying to keep in front of the field, burned through his tyres way too fast, and dropped through the field because of it, eventually finising in 14th place.

IIDOTR: Ólafur Ragnar Hannesson - If only he could qualify well....

Defourny looses victory due to collision

Victoria Desai took victory in the second race of the weekend at Donington Park National. The indian driver for RUSSIAN TIME started from on the grid, and went on to take victory by 1.9 seconds from Gianluigi Pazzini and 2 seconds ahead of Alexandre Dorval.

Despite that, Desai's victory only came after Max Defourny got a 5 second penalty due to a collision involving Desai herself, as Defourny, catching Desai and running at the time 3 tenths behind the indian, completelly failed his braking point into T1, and used Desai to brake, passing her after sending her wide. The stewards considered Defourny's driving as dangerous, and handed penalty points in his license and a 5 seconds time penalty, which dropped him to 7th place in the end.

4th place went to Alexander Obolensky, with Josh Carlisle getting his best result of the season, with a 5th place. Ólafur Ragnar Hannesson, again, with a storming driver from the back of the grid to get 6th, with Defourny then in 7th. Despite a mistake in qualifying, which saw him down in 27th place, Kirchhöfer pulled a good strategy move to finish in 8th place, with J.C. Wolf opening his points score this year, and Miguel Silva scoring the final point.

Besides Kirchhöfer, the other two title candidates had problems: Felix Rosenqvist, who got pole and fastest lap, only finished in 15th place, with Sophia Floersch down in 17th as well. This allows Kirchhöfer to increase his points gap entering the final couple of rounds in the championship.

IIDOTR: Ólafur Ragnar Hannesson - Just... wow.
