FIA F3 – Felix Rosenqvist does not give up

“Raffaele Marciello did everything to perfection, and got the maximum possible points, well done to him”. Nice player, Peter Mücke, the main team of Mücke Motorsport can only congratulate the rival of his driver Felix Rosenqvist for his three victories. Last weekend, the Italian was untouchable during the 7th round of the FIA F3 European Championship. From 24,5 points upon arriving at the Nürburgring, Rosenqvist saw his delay on the championship leader increase to 72,5 points. Last weekend at the Nürburgring, the 21-year-old Swede could do no better than third, ninth and fifth of the three races on the program.

"Everything didn't go very well. continues Peter Mücke. Felix lost a lot of points, but the championship is still long (three meetings. Ed.), and we will continue to attack. We will fight for the title. » “It’s clearly not the weekend I was hoping for, Rosenqvist concedes. We were running a step below our main rivals here at the Nürburgring. We were missing a tenth of a second. I lost the chance of getting a good result when I stalled at the start of the second race. The fact that I set the lap record proves that we were capable of doing well. But it will remain one of my funnest races. We've had some really good weekends recently, and it can't be like that all the time. It's car racing. I am now looking forward to the next race. We will do everything we can to be better than here. »

The next race is in Zandvoort (Netherlands) on the weekend of September 28-29. A circuit that the Scandinavian appreciates since he won the F3 Masters there for the second time on July 7.
