Vips: “It’s an upward trajectory for me”

German Formula 4 champion in 2017, Jüri Vips is now only twelve points behind leader Robert Shwartzman (Prema) thanks in particular to three podiums including two victories in five meetings in this first half of the 2019 campaign. 

 

“The first part of the season was good, he recently declared on the official FIA website Formula 3.fter lacking speed at the start, we gradually gained performance over the course of the races. It's an upward trajectory for me and I will do everything to continue my momentum in the last three rounds to win the championship. »

Doing everything to continue is one thing, being titled is another. Because if the 19-year-old is aiming for first place, the second place he has reached so far is far from assured, the gap with third, Jehan Daruvala, being only eight points.

 

“Until the end of the season, I will do everything to improve, be consistent and avoid these little things that cost points,” promised the young man.

Eager to stand out from Helmut Marko within the industry Red Bull, will Jüri Vips be able to withstand the pressure? Elements of response from the Spa-Francorchamps Grand Prix (Belgium, August 30-September 1).
